I'm very OK with putting our trust in Oscar, Phil and Claudio and go buy some proper fucking full backs and some central midfielders who can move.

Ok I’ll accept that, but let’s say me and you, both in our 50s and you’re an handsome fucker and I’m not, suzannah Reid appears. No matter what I do she chooses to smoke your pipe and not mine. Nothing I can do! ;-)Not on the wind up just fucked off that we can’t seem to get the deaks we want over the line and even when we make signings like in January we never even play them . Just hope we move on the players who are struggling to get to our standards .

Let's be honest, if Phil gets back to last years performances, he wipes the floor with Wirtz.

Another reason I think we want Gibbs White, he's Phil best mate and his Son's Godfather. They like playing together from England schoolboys and should help him off the pitch aswell.
Hopefully it's a physical problem that the Summer rest will sort out because he's been one of the worst players in the League off the back of winning POTS which is insane and not normal.

It really does feel like a good signing the MGW one. Kev gone frees up Phil to be the main manAnother reason I think we want Gibbs White, he's Phil best mate and his Son's Godfather. They like playing together from England schoolboys and should help him off the pitch aswell.

If. Can we rely on an "if"?Let's be honest, if Phil gets back to last years performances, he wipes the floor with Wirtz.
I love Phil to bits but we need to do whatever we can as a club to nurse him through whatever is currently going on, and hopefully back to his best.
But can we take a gamble on such a talent getting back to his best? Not investing in a creative option in the hope that Phil gets back to where he was is a big gamble.

Fair play to Liverpool for thier business, if he didn't want to come to us or we did pull out then that is life.
He could be great he may flop, either way that is not our problem plus try keeping Szlobozlai, McAllister and Wirtz happy when all after first name picks and one will inevitably be left out at times, unlss one is played deeper and all 3 start

I think you are exaggerating a bit here. Even the greatest happy clappers thought we needed a Rodri backup.Remember all the keyboard warriors calling people fanny wipes etc last summer when others were saying our squad especially midfield wasn't strong enough and kdb waller etc needed replacement..oh we've got Grealish they said, Rodri doesn't need cover.. etc.
Seems some people still don't see the midfield issue amongst other things
Also, not to defend those who specialize in calling others names, but i think the "fanny wipe" claims were often about people whining at the beginning of the window at our laxk pf movement rather than at people claiming we need additions.

You realise Liverpool are an attractive proposition don’t you? Doesn’t matter how much we hate them but they are serious players and now current PL champions. It is what it is and if Wirtz has chosen them, fair fuck to him.Precisely. Something doesn't add up here.

Whats the alternative, write him off and stick him on the bench?If. Can we rely on an "if"?

We have no choice but to assume hes going to get back to his best. Even in this shit season hes hardly been as bad as some are making out. 10+ g/a again.

Its ok to believe we are or we are not bringing in the requisite quality of players but what makes me laugh is the people who cant even argue that we are but instead just insult people with playground names.
Absolutely not, we don't write him off or consider him a bench player. But I also think we need an extra creative player whether Phil gets back to his best, or not.Whats the alternative, write him off and stick him on the bench?

Not recruiting in that position, in the hope Phil gets back to player of the year levels would be neglectful.
If you're chatting up a girl at the bar, and she says she appreciates your interest but she's more interested in a guy a bit further along the same bar, is that you walking away?It says something about Wirtz and this transfer when both City and Bayern walk away.

Doesn't seem right though, I thought the PL had implemented something like the NFL draft whereby the best team could only sign mid-table players, or maybe that's just been something we've been doing since 2012.You realise Liverpool are an attractive proposition don’t you? Doesn’t matter how much we hate them but they are serious players and now current PL champions. It is what it is and if Wirtz has chosen them, fair fuck to him.
They're the best team in the league currently and this will strengthen them for a number of years, exactly the sort of thing we should have been doing rather than Phillips, Nunes, Savio, Gundogan MK2 etc

You can only do what you’re able to do. If a player doesn’t want to sigh for us then that’s his choice and out of our hands. The flack Nunes gets is uncalled for, for me. You need squad players.Doesn't seem right though, I thought the PL had implemented something like the NFL draft whereby the best team could only sign mid-table players, or maybe that's just been something we've been doing since 2012.

From what I’ve seen this Wirtz character looks frail as fuck and so who says he will succeed? The deal is worth £150m if you believe what info there is out there. If Liverpool blow their entire budget on that, it’s their gamble. Our spend could be a lot more wise and refresh what needs to be done.
