Liverpool Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2014 *mod warning linked in OP 26/07*

I remember I wanted us to sign David Lolz after seeing him against us a few years ago for Benfica. He was sensational at LB.

Far, far too many mistakes to be confident in him. He's a squad player if we keep him but he won't be happy with that. We need to upgrade him, no doubt.

If you have the time I would go to Squawka and compare Skrtel, Sakho and perhaps Lovren. I think you might be surprised by Skrtels statistics.

It might make you think again about Skrtels contribution to the team.

Was very surprised when he was moved back centrally, tbh. Even more so when Chelsea signed him to be a CB.

Himself and Di Maria were incredible along Benfica's left side. They had a few great games against Liverpool too, if I remember correctly.

Pity we missed out on Willian.

Our confirmed signings so far -

Lallana - Will walk into the team and should settle straight away.
Lambert - Good backup striker who cost pennies, he can play ball and score goals. Again should settle straight away.
Can - Very highly rated young German midfielder. (I actually like him at LB)

Think they are 3 very good signings TBH.

Confirmed loss:

Dislike 99.9% of advertising having spent 12 years working in that industry but that BT Lfc vs Arsenal advert gives me the right horn for next season.

God roll on the start of the season

But forgetting about Suarez I think they are 3 very good additions.

We obviously need more!!

Gregory Vignal is the man for the LB role.

I only recently signed up to boards, saying hello to Liverpool fans, I'd be a fan but not like most of the chaps on here, have never been to Anfield but my early teenage years were spent listing to BBC radio 5 live in the bedroom hoping Fowler would bag another.

Anyway, I believe Sturridge is in Rodgers' mind more than capable for the required role however he is no doubt aware Sturridge won't be playing every game so I hope his plan B is decent and will be fulfilled.

I'm not too bothered about Sanchez, didn't want to be at Anfield so no harm he didn't come.

I don't see myself posting here again as my soccer knowledge is minimal but I said I'd say hi while I could. I've read this thread for a few years now, it's how I keep up to date with LFC goings on.

Kerr just wondering why Coutihno never hot a look in.
would agree with him, definitely could have done a bit better at times than Oscar.

Dont let that stop you. Just brush up on your Panda knowledge and you'll be fine.

He is probably better off not having anything to do with that setup tbh.

A new man in that likes to play football would suit him a lot more than pumping high ball up to forwards who can't play football.

That's an hour of my life i won't get back:mad:

Whatever about Oscar. When the hulk and Fred are starters you'd have to wonder about Scolari/Brazilian pool of talent

There is a lot of us here with minimal soccer knowledge but that doesn't stop me us.

Edit. DAMMIT COULSON GET OUT OF MY HEAD

Coutinho would have offered a lot more than Hulk. As would Lucas Moura

Your lack of knowledge would be fine if you're a 'true' fan who attends all the games.

Wouldn't disagree with you there, and it's great he had the summer off too but it's mad that he didn't get a look in.
And Hidalgo below really highlights the absurdity of some of the selections.

Dunno what the general opinion of Kerr is, but I must confess I enjoy listening to his bleedin Dub accent, he's funny enough and knows his stuff!

My favourite by a long shot. maxwell elbowed Kuyt and Kerr quips, 'maxwells sliver hammer' a reference to a Beatles song. Pure magic he is. Shocking that Owen, Quinn, Neville (Phil), Houghton and similar are used more than him.

I enjoy him too, especially when he strangles on his tongue with some of the foreign surnames.

But i think he is one of the better analysts

Yes he cracks a good few every match! He's very frank that's what I like too. far more entertaining than most!
