So the most important question!

Who get's the number 7 jersey?

If we don't get a marquee name I'd nearly give it to Lambert till we get a player who desreves to wear with.

Giving it to Lambert gives it to a kid of the Kop who could only ever dream of wearing it.

But it shouldn't be wasted on just any player.

Sterling?

No more iconic numbers to duds.

Let them earn the jersey

That's good thinking ! I say give it to lambert . Also take the number 9 jersey and give it to Sturrigde .

It's the goal that he sets up for Kuyt from a yard against United that makes me think he'll do well. Faced with a wall of defenders and running out of space, he got past them all. That's what Barca need.

On yeah he should do well, I just hope he doesn't because I'm a bitter aul cúnt

I can't be the only one hoping Suarez at Barca will be as bad or worse than Torres at Chelsea..?

No I don't I wish him every success and hope he can go onto win the Ballon D'or before his career ends. Torres was a sulk, gave up after 2 seasons and were in a much better standing then. While Suarez tried to force his way out last season he still put his head down and gave one of the greatest seasons we are likely to see from a player.
I couldn't care less if Torres kicked a ball again, I will be watching Barca very closely next season now though.

Tevez would be a great replacement for suarez. Seems to not like the UK though.

The tabloids are secretly gutted he is gone. He sells papers to chumps who lap it up

All i want to say is " Thanks Luis " and the very best of luck to you and your family in Spain YNWA

something to think about...

Arsenal have bought Sanchez and are targeting Khedira. top end.

we've sold Suarez.

Lallana, Lambert, Can are decent signings, but it's not even approaching the same ball park.

the finger needs gotten out and fast now.

The big thing that stood out from the statement that BR gave today

If there is one thing the history of this great club teaches us , it is that Liverpool FC is bigger than any individual .

My thoughts on the whole Suarez thing are the bloke is world class but I don't think you can class him as an LFC legend . As much as I like what he did for the club you can't call him that .

you can win with kids but not with second rate squad players

Agreed. We really seem to be going down the route of signing lots of good player rather than established top end talents.

Daily mail nonsense

Who buys this crap?

What's the feeling on Bony for £19? He cost £12m a year ago and has since scored 25 goals in 48 games at a very average Swansea side.

For an extra 7 million I think it's a good deal, shows that he can play well in the premier league at least.

Have to keep the faith with Rodgers. I am sure he would have liked to have kept Suarez but circumstances change. Markovic looks like a very exciting young player. The defense definately needs some money spend on as well as spending money on a new number 7.

I feel it would be a pragmatic and clever signing.

Al Capwned

Was always gonna happen that Suarez was gonna leave once Barcelona were interested I reckon.

Tell ye what's really important for ye now, that's to strengthen in the other half of the field.
Need serious defensive improvements if a CL place is to be maintained.

Ball bag is saying that it was 64 million . That means it was 75 million pound .

fliball123

Is there any merit in throwing a cheeky bid in for Michu? Anyone know if the 2 ukraine lads Kono and Yarmo are anywhere near Brenners thinking? Also we should be looking at Lukaku and Remy..These are targets we can get.

How would you spend the money? The closest like-for-like player has gone to Arsenal.

I personally don't care one way or the other whether he goes on to great success or failure at another club. His attitude and application on the pitch in the red shirt of Liverpool was incredible but I don't for a second believe it was out of any special loyalty or feeling for the club. It's just the way he is and the way he plays the game. He played the same way for Ajax, the same way for Uruguay and I'm sure it will be the same at Barcelona. Just a different signature on the paycheck.

Reshaping our defence is going to be Brendan Rodgers biggest headache this season.

Imo a RB RCB and LB are needed. Mig and Sakho are starters for me. Even if we manage to get 3 quality additions to our defence it's going to take time for the defence to gel together and given the way we set up with our midfielders pressing high up in attack this leaves our defence exposed, so it's going to be a big challenge for BR to get the balance right in defence.

We need a vocal leader to martial and organise the defence I think Sakho can make this step up..

This is why the club are eager to sign Lovren, they feel he can be the defensive leader.

If I was totally honest I think Mignolet could be improved upon, he's not great in my opinion.
