Bit gay like.
 
Elliott maybe reached his ceiling very young. He has a brilliant football brain and eye for a pass but his lack of pace and physicality are limiting.

He's changed games though, so sure he will have a great PL career. I'd be furious if we weren't signing Wirtz, which still feels like a distorted reality tbf

And he's now got his second of the game vs the NL in the U21 semis !
 
It's good if Slot rates McConnell cos I think he's quality, but he's going to have to be brave and actually give him significant game time if he's going to progress. He seems to be pretty risk averse when it comes to youngsters.

Yeah, either he gets game time or a loan to a team he’ll play a lot of games for.

I think we’ll see the same as last season, a flurry of loans after there-season friendlies and Slot has had another look at his squad.
 
Can we all agree that if we do not sign a decent defender then this transfer window has been a complete balls up by Hughes ?

yes and no, if slot said i think we’ve got enough in the squad and i don’t want another cb then you can’t really blame hughes. maybe he really fancies endo and badger there.

but right now with a broken gomez and no quansah it does look really weak.

if we end up turning over rocks for kabak and championship defenders in august then yea it’s a dogs dinner

I don't think that they would have let Quansah go without having had a verbal agreement in place, with Palace & Guehi, to replace him. I expect to see that finalised in the next 2-3 weeks.
 
Interesting Insight from Klopp on Fekir deal, we just didn’t have the money to get both Ali and him, not sure where these quotes are from or if verified though:
😲 Jurgen Klopp has admitted that had #LFC signed Nabil Fekir in the summer of 2018, then the club wouldn't have been able to afford Alisson Becker.

🗣️ "We all know the story around the Champions League final. We had to estimate, to judge, how [Karius] would deal, how the public would deal with that. We were all hoping he could become stronger after that, maybe it can be a turning point into a good direction. But then all of a sudden we heard then that Ali is on the market.

🗣️ "It was my absolute dream. When you dream or think about the team, you set it up from the back. And that was the moment we said: ‘Okay, we have to try it’.

🗣️ "The interesting part is that we were close to signing Fekir. And if we sign Fekir, we don’t have the money for Ali. It was obviously a pretty important decision for the future of LFC!"

I am scared @Frogfish , really scared, that if we dont get a defender we will be like a soft vagina that will be penetrated at will by any opposition.
 
What are people's priorities?

1. Sign a CB
2. Flog Nunez
3. Buy a 9
4. Flog a LB (Tsimikas for me)
5. Flog young Harvey
6. Flog Chiesa
7. Holiday for Hughes?

Btw by 'flog', I'm not suggesting corporal punishment, except perhaps in Nunez case.

I reckon Nunez is done so

1. Sign Guehi
2. Konate extension
3. Sign a striker
4. Sell a LB
5. Sell Chiesa
6. Sell Harvey
7. Holiday

Realistically, I think it'll go sales > signings > holiday > extension
 
@Modo , is this guy any good ? He plays for Sweden right ?

1. Konate signed to a new contract
2. Sell Nunez, Cheesy, Robo/Tsimi and Elliot
3. Get a CB and #9
4. Sell the youngsters
5. Train for preseason
6. Loan out youngsters
 
If Quansah is gone, then a CB is an absolute must and it’ll likely need to be a HG player or one that is still U21 - and I don’t see many U21 CBs who aren’t high enough quality to play regularly for us.

So… Guehi makes the most sense and that’s the priority.

Nunez select likely the next priority, but I feel like his replacement we’ll take more time with because the market is so poor, so there’ll likely be more of a focus on sales for a while.

Don’t see Diaz going - but I do see him being deployed more centrally and another wide forward coming in - with Fofana and maybe Simons or even Gordon on the list.

Then after tge ore-season tour, we’ll see which kids go out on loan.

The other “big” question is what we do with Badger - sell, loan or integrate. Endo staying doesn’t help him and Ivtjink well cash in there - maybe we bring in another midfielder later in the summer - I see Stiller isn’t off to Real after all.
 
Says who? Don't see it.
The rumours are (and they are just rumours) that both Konate and Diaz are not happy with the latest offers from the club. Some go even further to say both want to leave the club. I would like the club to tie Konate down to a long term contract but if he won't sign then sell him. We might only get £40m now or nothing next year. If the stats/data show Guehi is a capable centre back for Konate then we need Hughes to look at his book and see where else he can get another CB who can be 3rd choice.
Diaz two years left, less concerned with and negotiations can continue into the season until Xmas
