The Unreliable Transfer Rumours Discussion Thread (Part 4)

So Toure has played in Sweden and now on the back of 24 appearances and 2 goals in the bundesliga is a Mo replacement?

Whilst I don’t believe this rumour for a second what is obvious is that in ā€œreplacing Salahā€ we won’t be getting a like for like replacement for what he’s been giving us the last 8-9 years.

The goal scoring burden will shift centrally. You don’t spend Ā£200m on CFs and then hope your new RW will be your top scorer.

Whoever comes in may inhabit the same space on the right as Mo but he won’t be a replacement for Mo.

This. The club bought two strikers who, while not your classic no. 9s who sit around and wait for the ball to be laid on a plate to them, are supposed to share the goalscoring burden that Salah carried for the past two seasons.

Also, the likes of Wirtz and Szoboszlai should be decent in front of goal, while we also have to hope that Gakpo will revert to his old self. Buying a creative winger makes a world of sense at this moment.

He’s quite active in assisting in comparison to scoring goals. Could work with our new look front line next year (creators on the wings, goals in the centre).

With 8 assists in the Bundesliga this season, that’s a strong return for a 20 year old in his first proper top-league. He has seemingly 200+ km covered already this season. With 570+ sprints and a surprisingly high tackle numbers for an attacker

That tells you a few things: He’s not a ā€œluxury wingerā€, he tracks back consistently. He presses aggressively, which suits high-energy systems (hopefully like ours).

Yeah I’d like to see 2 (Alex and Hugo) up front with Flo in behind and almost an old fashioned 4-4-2 diamond.

SHOCK!

We can now confirm via our sources that Arne Slot is unlikely to be
LFC manager next season unless he wins the ChampionsLeague

Liverpool are already making transfer plans, and we understand Yan Diomande is close to agreeing a move to Liverpool. We understand Archie Gray wants the move to Liverpool if all clubs come to an agreement.

I’m not sure my whelm could be any more under or my pointed any more disa.

Archie Gray is one I haven’t seen elsewhere… if they go down he might be a cheap option to allow rotation at RB and he also has played CB and CM.

I was thinking his ship had sailed but he’s played decently since returning to the team fully and is only 20.

Of course it’s Indykalia so it’s eithier come from somewhere else or he plucked it out of his arse.

Whenever we have a bad match day experience, Indykalia comes out of the woodwork like a louse just to feed off LFC supporters.

So every week at the moment :wink:

I think he posts this shit on a weekly basis. Of course if Slot goes he can claim he was first with the exclusive.

I agree we never replaced Bobby, Hendo and Trent who supplied the bullets to these guys as well as scoring goals themselves.

Gary Off YouTube ā€œPlaying His Cards Close To His Chestā€

The world famous soccer guru was asked if he had any shock football news and he replied ā€œNah, not really. Do you want me to make something up, you know, for clicks or whatever?ā€
Many pundits are taking these incoherent ramblings to mean that a bombshell is in the offing.
Or not.
Stay tuned…

Do they know they can’t do a loan to buy?

They need to be quoted a big price - 30m perhaps? No loan, no as ons just cold hard cash. Otherwise Becker stays until the end of his contract.
