I agree. It looked deliberate and his reaction confirmed that for me. If Raheem's improved his finishing as much as his pre season form suggests, phew, what a player we'll have on our hands!
I feel,if we have Brahim and Phil in the squad permanently that gives us two teams with a mix of world class and potential world class. What's not to like?
I know im gonna get a lot of stick for this but here goes
We still have Bony and I dont see the point of signing a back up striker to sit on the bench. We might as well save the money for January and go all out for PEA from Dortmund. Bony wants to stay and fight for his chance and if Pep gives him until January you never know.
Totally agree - Bony was the prems highest goalscorer at Swansea - as a back up he is decent. Quite happy with him as 3rd choice striker if no one else comes in.
However hard Raheem has worked on his finishing, to start relying on him would be folly ,in respect of that its right that our midfielders have got to increase on some pretty awful stats
10 - 15 goals from Raheem this season will be a worthy contribution to the team effort. Same for KDB. If Merlin can also muster a similar amount, then we are looking at 30 - 44 goals from three midfield players. We also have Bernardo, plus Gundo to come back who can both chip in. And this is before we even start to consider the front three of Jesus, Sane and Aguero. Yaya will score the odd belter and Danilo is a capable finisher.However hard Raheem has worked on his finishing, to start relying on him would be folly ,in respect of that its right that our midfielders have got to increase on some pretty awful stats
He is trying hard to improve each facet of his game imo. He has his flaws but he keeps improving. It might be that he has shit spells where everyone starts saying he isn't good enough, but he comes back & has another go.
A lot of folks don't seem to recon him in, when assessing the squad but I would hate to see him playing for the dippers against us.
Have to say David Silva is my all time fav going back to 1970 but he doesnt do goals10 - 15 goals from Raheem this season will be a worthy contribution to the team effort. Same for KDB.

My point is, even without Sanchez in the team, we have more than enough goals, and a wealth of players who can crack open most defences, even the ones who park the bus.
Yeah I agree, you can see steady improvement. I've read he takes his development very seriously and is a really hard worker so good for him. Given the relentless flak he's taken from the press and opposition fans it would be great to see him succeed.

Sanchez needs to grow some and hand a request in like coutinho s just done ..come on Sanchez lad sort it out!Whats the latest odds now then on Sanchez arriving ??
I going to stick my neck out and say Dave will bag double figures this season.Have to say David Silva is my all time fav going back to 1970 but he doesnt do goals
Has he ?Sanchez needs to grow some and hand a request in like coutinho s just done ..come on Sanchez lad sort it out!
Ha.. yeah just now,it's all that needs to be done from Sanchez imo. But yeah the dippers are slagging the lad off now lolHas he ?
Lol.
I'm off to tinternet land for a laugh.

Haha.. it definitely is mate. Was always gonna happen when Barca came knocking. Klopp can say he isn't going till he's blue in the face but deep down he knows he can't keep him against his will. That said,I've got a feeling it's gonna cost Barca a lot more than the 90m they've had turned down already. 100m plus in this crazy market. Why do you reckon Sanchez won't/hasn't done it yet? So frustratingThat is a massive loss for them - welcome to Liverpool Klopp (BOOOOOOM) : )

I just for the life of me, cannot understand it if Arsenal do not sell him to us this window, and let him just arrive next summer for free when they could get a minimum £50m or so right now
Call me old fashioned, but maybe he wants to honour his contract; something which seems a bit out of fashion these days.Haha.. it definitely is mate. Was always gonna happen when Barca came knocking.
