Nice hair cut

 

[Mors]

The firm have broke this, so defo off.

 

[The Nomad]

Spoiler Alert

Nah just shithousery by you.

Not even funny.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

not 100% sure this is a smart move ... unless we're changing our formation

Sport.es says its on

Sport.es says its on

But what about Umbongo sports?

 

[Rosco]

It's got to be unlikely , but not because this isn't a "typical FSG signing".

Strategy changes with context, we're now Champions , so if you're ever going to add an experienced player like this it's right about now when we have a small window within which we could rack up another title or two

 

[The Nomad]

But what about Umbongo sports?

What about tribalfootball? Is that still around?

It's probably the Firm if not.

I just don't think we've got any money to spend, and if we did, I doubt we'd be willing to spend it on a 29 year old, injury prone midfielder - the one position where we're quite well stocked.

 

[Holle]

He's so not what we need.

I just don't think we've got any money to spend, and if we did, I doubt we'd be willing to spend it on a 29 year old, injury prone midfielder - the one position where we're quite well stocked.

Remember what Klopp said a couple of years ago.

Just because it's not a position of need. Doesnt mean we won't add to that position if the right player comes along.

I'm not convinced myself, but not because of the position.

 

[Buddha]

He’s excellent, highly adaptable, at the peak of his powers, is reportedly super keen to move to Anfield and has only one year left on his contract.

I’m all for it.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Yes

Apologies, I didn't mean to suggest you'd forum died. Poor turn of phrase on my part.

 

[reuque]

Just a gut feeling but is the hold up is due to the corona situation where it's almost impossible to host a friendly with Bayern Munich to unveil Thiago signing at halftime?

 

[Mors]

I just don't think we've got any money to spend, and if we did, I doubt we'd be willing to spend it on a 29 year old, injury prone midfielder - the one position where we're quite well stocked.

Injury prone? Just googled him and he's played 42, 41, 32, 42, 36 games over the last 5 seasons? That's not bad.

 

[bluebell]

Though Klopp hasn't been 100% on his transfers, by and large, he gets it right. If we sign Ali, and as a result we win CL or the League, we will all forget about the £25m-£30m transfer fee.

None of us are transfer experts, how many of us thought Carroll, Balotelli and Downing were good exciting signings?

 

[Halmeister]

Ali?

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Ali?

Delle?

Jonathan Andrews

 

[bluebell]

Delle?

Jonathan Andrews

Why not Ali?

 

[Halmeister]

Who is Ali?

 

[MomoWASright]

Who is Ali?

The greatest.

 

[Halmeister]

Ali Baba?

 

[the count]

Ali express.
Because he doesn't always deliver

 

[Halmeister]

Ali Landry

 

[Rosco]

Ali Landry

I would have also dished out a like for Ali Larter

 

[Halmeister]

She was going to be next.

I agree with some of the sentiments in here that we need to balance our strategy of buying players we feel havent reached their potential (Mane, Gini, Robbo etc) with those we feel would help us cement a legacy with another title or two in the next 3-4 years. Thiago looks like he could be in that list. I generally think a wide forward and full back is the main place we need bolstering, but I would love to see a player of Thiago's calibre come in.
