Summer transfer thread

The new stand stands out well from the rest of the ground, whilst fitting in well, if you get what i mean. Impressive structure. New training complex too.

Only 1 Pl & 1 CL - not a bad haul considering so few british clubs have won the CL. My guess we win at least 1 of them again this year and a big double shouldnt be beyond us.

Lovren out - Fab to CB and Thiago in midfield
Lallana out - Jota in
We didnt lose the little the shit, he left of his own volition and a bad back. A sale and fee few people thought was even possible

"Wonder WHY" oh deary me, a year plus of posting about how we can sign mbappe, how we can afford to do it, pages about why we are the best destination in europe and you have the temerity to say i wonder why, its on and just a matter of time before we liberate Mbappe

We would also have had to put up with another lengthy ban if he had stayed plus no guarantee against any further similar offences and further lengthy bans.

Think CC is on about Coutinho tbh

Don't see why selling Torres was a mistake.
He was messing about in that last season with us
I remember seeing Carragher yelling at him about his movement (or lack of it) and Torres gesturing back at him.
He wanted off and also seemed past his best owing to injury or otherwise
Torres stats
Liverpool
07-09 116 appearances 72 goals, fantastic
10-11 26 appearances 9 goals, mediocre
Chelsea
172 appearances 45 goals, poor
Atletico Madrid
150 appearances 37 goals, poor

Kenny sold him end of Jan for £50m and also sold Babel for £5.8m who was poor
In came Suarez £22.8m and Andy Carroll £35m

Carrolls stats
Newcastle
09-11 62 appearances 30 goals
Fell off a seat or something like that at time of signing and so got injured for quite a spell upon joining - not good!
I thought Kenny spent a lot of effort developing Carroll but it just never worked out - when he appeared to be coming good Kenny never seemed to pick him regularly.
Signed for Liverpool at age 22
Appearances 58 goals 11
Now aged 31 with total career stats of
appearances 322 goals 79

I had no problem with selling Torres, he just wasn't interested and obviously wanted a move. My issue was who was brought in to replace him.

I stayed in the same hotel as the team while they were there on the day of the infamous Blackburn away game. Woys and Torres last game. Before they left the hotel they all went for a walk around the hotel and I've never seen a more dejected bunch than that squad. And we knew Torres didn't want to be their. He looked miserable.
On the other hand old Woy was as happy as Larry 😂😂

I really should've been mad at him but he came across as very likable.

No no - wasn’t his fault he found himself in charge of the most successful club in the land.

He was out of his depth and just over the moon to have the title Manager of Liverpool FC bless him.

...likeable if you were our opponents that day, he always talked them up like we were playing Barca no matter who it was.


He's the only ex LFC manager I look at at completely forget he was ever associated with the club, like it never really happened..........bit like when Bobby stepped out of the shower (half of you won't have a clue).

[Steveo]

I preferred him in Man From Atlantis

Now that would be some spoof - imagine Woy cast in that role...

I don't remember Firmino being in Dallas
