Liverpool thread 2017/18

[aguero93:20]

Looks like Liverpool are going big to try become a PL force again. Melissa Reddy (God's own truth as far as Liverpool is concerned) has written an article - http://www.goal.com/en-in/news/75m-...klopps-masterplan-/1faugqaw77z3c1mded913cfnkn, suggesting that VVD, Mane, Salah, Ox, Keita are only the beginning of the overhaul. Klopp wants one of Goretzka/Milinkovic-Savic in the CM role, Lemar as an attacking option while Jose Gimenez, Aymeric Laporte and Manuel Akanji are three attractive candidates in the defensive department. If they pull that off, their squad would easily be on the same level as City.

Coutinho is already looking at property in Catalonia.

Coutinho will leave and he is their best player. Perhaps not in Jan but in the summer he will be gone. It would be like us losing KDB.

IF. That's providing City still have half their first team out, and don't improve at all in the same period. Curious how you pay £75m for a CB then buy 2 to put the guy on the bench, yet leave the weaknesses at full-back and GK untouched. Ludicrous, and how long before say Chelsea put a nice fee down for Mane and RM put £80m on the table for Salah to replace Bale?

My mistake. Meant to write Laporte/Gimenez and VVD. That article also mentions that they are looking to buy FBs and a GK but have not yet identified the targets.

You can replace Coutinho with Mane and the squad quality will remain the same. Coutinho is not fit to lace KdB's boots btw.

I am not comparing the two and KDB is superior and has much more to his game. Coutinho is still a special player and losing him will have a big impact on them.

Mane can't replace Coutinho's creativity, he's a completely different type of player.

When coutinho was out Mane was looking like Messi. Coutinho is by far their best player though and if they lose him they ain’t competing for shit.

The dippers have paid over £170m in the last few years on Southampton players the club is only worth about £250m
