    We should be looking to part ex a couple in the Rice deal

    If Wolves still want Origi, we should absolutely flog him

    There is a reason we don’t see many English David Silva’s.
    England are having success at international youth level, have a good squad at senior level just cant get the top level manager.

    Klopp manages with Hendo & Jones.

    Ye/England with Klopp versus with Southgate.

    Much as I admire and love the talents of Jurgen, he wouldn't win jack with England because they haven't even got one top CB in their ranks and I include Gomez in that too, both Matip and Fabinho are much better CB's and defenders than Joe, Matip is much better in the air than Fab and has better distribution for me. Fab has been trying some balls over the top and long diagonals from CB in the last few games now he is settled there and I hope he continues that, he frequently has time to attempt that and it is a good opportunity for him to develop his passing and ability to play those balls as the risk factor of him attempting them and them not coming off is incredibly low, we've often scored from the miscued or slighly undercooked ones by winning the second ball off them

    Absolutely Steveo.

    Look at the fees we got for Ibe, Solanke and Brewster.

    The total is a considerable percentage of what we spent on Firmino, Salah and Mane. I know inflation is a thing, but in terms of the usefulness-to-finance ratio it really drives home how intelligently we conduct our business.

    You.
    You're good, you.

    Not many on here are going to get that reference but I do.

    (....and yes, I realize I'm carbon-dating myself by admitting that I get that reference.
    A lot of the younglings on here wouldn't know Richard Pryor if you painted them a picture and tweeted it to them on their smartypants Eye-phone)

    @Crimson

    Brewster's Millions has been mentioned a few times already. I think you'll find quite a few people on here get the reference. Now if you'll excuse me I've only got 30 seconds to spend a penny.

    With players getting form and coming back from injury and young players doing a job, and fabinho being incredible

    I don't see the need to buy, save it for the summer when we have a clear out and the likes of origi leave
