I see you two taking great delight in all this

Yea because moaning on here is going to change things

Liverpool are interested in centre-back Dayot Upamecano, who is stalling on signing a new contract at Bayern Munich, says Sky Germany's Florian Plettenberg.

"Everyone is waiting for his commitment, his signature. His contract is ready. But Bayern Munich will not improve their offer," Plettenberg told Sky Sports News.

"Upamecano can sign it, [taking him until] 2030 or 2031. There's a release clause included from the summer of 2027. He can earn 20m Euros gross per year and receive a big signing feed, together with his agent.

"But Bayern is waiting for weeks, they want a decision soon.

"But my opinion is he's waiting for Liverpool, for Real Madrid.

"Liverpool is interested in Upamecano, we can confirm that."

One clumsy konate out, and one Clumsy Upamecano in, can't complain I guess if we get him.

Shame we look like we'll lose konate on a free instead of making a profit and signing Upamecano to raise money for elsewhere.... we're so rich and huge depth I suppose we can let players leave on a free for fun.

Why I first saw Konate at Leipzig alongside UpperMecano, Konate was clearly the better player

It was by complete accident as I was watching them to see Werner we were interested in

Liverpool fans are rightly moaning everywhere “36 passes without trying to penetrate their area” is frequent

There were times last season we were looking like going too tappy crappy and he pulled it back

Looking at all the goals there almost all scored as they for so long have been barely any tappy crappy goals

As detailed in the other thread fans always do this when the manager is failing we went through that for 20 odd years here before you arrived telling us we can’t

[Nineteenx]

We need a RFWD/LFWD this window we’re linked to a couple happy playing either side

We can’t be relying on Frimpong, Gakpo or Kerkez to deliver the goals and assists we need from wide areas

Erm this thread is about transfers. Not sure what good moaning about transfers, or lack of them, is going to do but carry on.

Well we could've sign Rayan if that helps.

we're signing noone perhaps a CB that is all if VVD gets injured tonight, maybe it'll make them sign one, who knows.

This is FSG we only sign players when we have no other option, get with the times, we do not like Squad depth, this is liverpool this means more, expect another mad rush and changes in the summer.

[Nineteenx]

Erm they let them sign two number nine’s for a combined 200m when we didn’t even play with an out and out one

[Nineteenx]

Semenyo was the Mané signing and should have been done in the summer

[Kev0909]

Erm they let them sign two number nine’s for a combined 200m when we didn’t even play with an out and out one

Yeah we should've played Gakpo or Chiesa all season at no9 instead

Clever boy /clap

Jota,Nunez,Diaz all played there not like we didn't need a few is it, we needed proper strikers Jota did pretty well as no9 when he wasn't injured / broken.

Out and out one or not if we didn't sign anyone we'd have been screwed, so yes like I said we was forced

Like we will be at CB fuck thinking about long-term we don't act until it's too late or have no other choice, this is why we're signing noone now, princess if we're very lucky we might get a CB but what are the chances?

Nunez was a pure striker. In fact you could argue he was a poor signing because he broke the mould of the false 9 that we had been used to playing with Firmino. Klopp broken the golden rules.

[Kev0909]

Arsenal probably would've signed 2 CB'S by now and at least one attacker Lols.. it's just true, they need a area improving depth-wise, they sort it out.

Says it all

Meanwhile we tend to be reliable on freebies, sometimes works out or bargains over the last years... and sometimes just injury crooks, that's how it goes.

yes spent money this summer, but too late i'm afraid to much work to do in the summer then we wonder why we look so disjointed now we need to replace the old boys and get better in other positions too, and if we don't act now, could be to late again, but that's the FSG way.

Any other club would be sorting a CB now any club that has some ambition anyway, it's a joke never mind LW/RW

Don't know how you can't see that, the sheer neglect of the squad over the years has led to the summer gone, has led to now, do you think Klopps stupid he knew this would happen probably, but keep blaming 100% slot for everything, not the players, not the owners, not how the club has been run and we've been walking on eggshells for years (by that i mean a few injury's we are in trouble)

The clubs with a lack of depth, even villa because of the injury's they've had are bringing players in, west ham fighting to avoid relegation, more depth

Because depth is key CB area no no6 has been a ongoing issue for ages, and we've still not sorted it- had long enough, it's simply neglect and stupidness ,now guess what we need a LW/RW also, and by time we sign a CB we might need two 3 steps behind whilst others are one step ahead, and you wonder, you wonder ?!?!

wake the fuck up and smell the roses it's simply not acceptable for a club the size of LFC, and last seasons league winners.

Glad we're on 71 pages and signed noone of note good that

how is any manager meant to compete ?

Yes so we should have kept Nunez pretty simple his goals and assists record is better than Gakpo’s he presses better, at least is involved in creating chances and breaks lines in opposition defences and caused panic, including from LFWD

[Nineteenx]

Nunez was a pure striker. In fact you could argue he was a poor signing because he broke the mould of the false 9 that we had been used to playing with Firmino. Klopp broken the golden rules.

Nunez played across the line up too and deeper the plan seemed to be to develop him to do all of it and he did in some games you don’t get many strikers playwright across the line these days his signing made sense

Isak played in a 433 and was effective through the wide forwards being released early ahead of him, so signing him didn’t make any sense it was pure collude territory “Whybeoukd you spend £125m on something you don’t know how to use?”

For what Slot was obviously planning he needed a fox in the box and that’s neither Isak or Ekitije

We still had Jota & Gakpo who could play false 9

[Insidious]

Whilst this is accurate now, I wonder how many of our fanbase would have been clamouring for Arsenal's ownership when they would sell star players to direct rivals?

Succession planning at centre-back would be very welcome. There's a fair likelihood that three of our four (Van Dijk, Konaté, Gomez) will have departed by the time the an 18-month period has elapsed.

Someone young like Jacquet to compliment Leoni and then someone in the 24-27 bracket like Upamecano or Schlotterbeck (injury record though?) would make excellent inroads into sorting this out, though it would need done over a number of windows.
