We really miss Saurez
We should never buy Italians despite their rep
We need avoid signing players that have history of long standing injuries
We need to stop buying anymore CB
WE NEED TO STOP REDNINJA POSTING JINXY THREADS
 
Saurez always makes me think of the evil Suarez that the press tried to sell us.

Like a cross between Suarez and Sauron.
 
That one quality striker is much more effective than 10 quality attacking midfielders.
 
That buying the form players from the previous flavour of the season club, doesn't work. Lallana, Lovren, Lambert. That's £50m right there.

Poor poor return for the investment and we will get nowhere near that if we try to offload.
 
That an annual wage bill deficit of around £70m compared with your rivals shows.*
That an annual turnover that is what your rivals were doing seven years ago shows.*
That moneyball is a failed strategy if winning anything is your ambition.
That players are whiny spoilt little fucks who couldn't give a fuck about anything but money.
That I'm rapidly losing interest in the whole fucking thing.

*none of these figures may be correct, blame some podcast I was listening to for further retribution.
 
That as important as it is to have flash footballers all over the park, a big soupcon of winners doesn't go amiss either.

We're leaderless across the park.
 
* Ryan and Ross are always right, even when they contradict each other.
* The player so many people wanted out would have led us to 4th in his sleep
* Rodgers will struggle to keep Ibe out of the 1st team next year
* We need a player like Schneiderlin to lead the middle of the pack
* Lallana was a poor transfer. Good player? Yes. But not even lose to worth 25 million - poor business.
 
Out of the myriad of overpriced players we got last summer, Lallana and Can are the only ones who came close to being worth what we paid.
 
That you can't reply on Sakho.

This is Agger all over again. Talented defender, but he's built of soup. The cunt's never fucking fit.

Lallana isn't close to being what we paid for - He's a 10-15 million pound player. Can - if he continues on the current trajectory - will be considered a bargain. As I said elsewhere, every Bayern Munich player who's 'sold' with a buy back clause to a German team should be scouted by us ...

He wasn't like this in France from what I remember ... Pity.
 
I think certain things we knew already, such as Rodgers deficiencies, Sturridge's inability to stay fit and that we paid well over the odds for a few players.

Lallana would've a reasonable buy for one of the top four. For us it was a luxury purchase that we probably couldn't afford.

Ibe is ready. Markovic isn't.

Can has amazing potential and can contribute a lot right now but he still needs a lot of coaching and work to play in midfield.

We're too "nice" as a side. We need some winners in the side that will give us backbone.

Sterling isn't particularly attached to Liverpool.

Sturridge minus Suarez might not be the same player. Either that or he's not enough when you need the team to dig deep when it's not playing well.

Moreno has raw potential but needs a lot of work. We need a couple new fullbacks.

The bottom line really is potential. A lot of players individually, the manager and team as a whole all have potential. Whether that potential can be realized depends on Rodgers getting his head out of his ass more often and buying some players that can be relied on right now rather than in 3 years time.
 
That I despise modern-day football even more than I thought I did and yet I'm still willing to spunk around £200 to go to Wembley next weekend.
Utter shite.

*blinks* Lallana? Surely that was a typo, your mind must have been elsewhere.

What we've learned this season is that our beloved club, still, is incapable of having a good summer transfer window, regardless of how much money they've got to spend.

We've also learned that without Suarez, there aint no goals.

Have we even signed any Italians this season? Or last season for that matter?

And you only worked out this season that we shouldn't sign injured players?
 
Even if we'd kept Suarez, we'd still be missing last seasons Suarez - but nobody appears to acknowledge it.

And the club would be better off if they gave me the power to veto bad transfer deals
 
this thread is filled with regrets, here's another:

This season's Atletico Madrid do not have the consistency of last year's title-winning side, but in Antoine Griezmann they have arguably the signing of the season in La Liga.

He was once again his side's outstanding player in Saturday's 2-2 draw at Malaga. Fernando Torres' own-goal got Malaga back into the game in the first half and also means that since returning to Atletico in January, he has scored as many La Liga goals for the opposition as for his own side. Mario Mandzukic's still not fully explained ankle problem has also limited the Croatian's contribution over recent months.

But Griezmann's been in superb form. Saturday's sharply taken brace means he has four goals in his last three games and 21 already in his first season for Atletico. The Frenchman could do with some help, though, as the season reaches its decisive stage in both La Liga and the Champions League.
