Florian and the (Slot) Machine

Mo missed a sitter, Flo hit the post,
Back in the pub, they both had a roast.
Flo said, “Mo, you’ve got no control!”
Mo said, “Says you — with that open goal!”

Flo took a dive, Mo called him out —
“Get up, you muppet, stop rollin’ about!”
Ref gave a pen, Flo gave a grin,
Mo muttered, “I think I'm gonna like him”

Flo with the vision, Mo with the flair,
Flo missed again? Mo’s hands in the air.
Flo says, “Not my fault, the pitch was bobbly!”
Mo shouts back, “Nah mate, you’re just not as good as Bobby!”

I'll get me coat.
 
A fucking denim fedora hat and a pair of shitty shades?

You mean to tell me I waited 4 of the longest weeks of my lifetime.....for a fucking hat and some shades??????????

Eh alright then, WELCOME FLORIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
It's clear that you had some options this summer, including the chance to stay at Leverkusen. So, why Liverpool? Why is Liverpool the right choice?

I just thought that it was the right point in my career to make the next step and of course I wanted to get to a club that is from the top three in the world, and in my opinion Liverpool was one of them. Yeah, I just saw myself in the best hands in Liverpool. I was really convinced by the people here, by the idea, and everything what the club offers me was really good. And in the end [it was] also easy to be excited for me to come to Liverpool.
 
“It was really tough to play here!” he said. “But I was still thinking about the game when I spoke to the coach or the guys and this was an example of how it can be here.

“It was really hard, we lost 4-0 and we had to run so much! We lost almost every duel and I just wanted to be part of this team.

“I was feeling the quality of the team and the size of the club and for sure,” Wirtz added. “Inside me I was always thinking about this game and I could remember how it was to play here.”

This is how to get the big boys. This and bags full of cash.
 
Ok. This is a genuine Galatico signing. One of the best young players in the world. Great to see us finally act like the massive club we are worldwide.

I expect to see Szobo, Jones, Macca, Gravvy all up their levels next season as the competition for the 2 roles behind Florian will be tough.

Kerkez and Frimpong signings are perfect too. If Robbo stays, let him up his level and make it a competition. Bradley/Frimpong, the competition is fierce there. Alli has competition with Mama. Left wing is competive already. Sign Guehi and the competition at CB goes up for Ibou esp. Virg is calm and always at high level but will be pushed by Guehi too. Mo is an animal and competes with himself every season.

I said we needed to surround our legends (esp Mo and VVD) with LEGS and QUALITY.

Looks like we are doing that.

Fuck off Darwin, and bring in a good CF (Ekitike/Isak) + Konate new contract, and it's basically the perfect summer.

Arne is ruthless and I love it.
 
Swap Ekitike, who doesn't convince me (especially at the kind of fee being quoted), for Sesko and I'd agree with all of that.
I'm unconvinced by Sesko.

Him and Ekitike played in the same league last season. Ekitike made the squad of the season (and helped his team to 3rd), Sesko did not (missed out on Europe completely).

Sesko is like a Haaland-lite.
Ekitike is like an Isak-lite.

I prefer Ekitike because I feel like an Isak-lite is still a good footballer when they are not scoring. Whereas as Haaland-lite not scoring is a clunky footballer. We have ballers and primary goalscorers in our team already (Salah, Wirtz and Gakpo/Diaz). We don't need an out-and-out goalscorer (25G, 5A). We need a good all round CF, who links well with our attackers and both scores and assists (G15, A15)... plus works his ass off in the press up front.
