Would love to see that signing. Bayern are like Real Madrid, they can let some very good players leave. Though I'm not sure its smart of them considering Ribery and Robbens' age.

Well they've just signed on Coman full-time and it seems like Brandt is headed there too.

The likes of Bayern and Madrid are the perfect places for Liverpool to look for top players. We can't compete with the top clubs when it comes to signings, but when a top club signs someone it can often mean a really good player will be leaving, and that's who we should be trying to snatch up. Sure in the past few years Madrid have let Ozil and Di Maria go when they were playing brilliantly, just because they thought they could sign the next best superstar. Now it looks like James will be on his way this summer because he didn't become the literal best player in teh world after a couple of years.

A bit from Ian Ayres on the Delli Alli failed signing, the club felt he hadn't achieved enough to justify his demands

Also a bit on the Suarez transfer

"I remember the sporting director of Barcelona calling me during that game, immediately as Suarez bit the player, and he said to me 'my friend, he's bitten somebody, how can this be the price?' I said 'he'd already bitten somebody when you first bid!'

Douglas Costa is most certainly leaving Bayern in the summer anyway. He's been mentioned around here for quite a while, exactly what we need being essentially a left-sided Man?. With his current situation he should be our number one target in that position.

We need left sided Men alright

Would nearly take the 0-0 in the Manchester derby. United haven't done much but I don't trust that City defence. Or keeper.

Keeper is woeful and that Otamendi lad makes Moreno look like a half decent defender.

Reminds me a little of this:

I'll see what the away one is like before I decide on what to buy.

For next season as a once off with the relaxation of what is on the shirt sleeve in the Premier League I want Liverpool to wear their UEFA badge of honour

noodler · 27-04-2017 09:27PM

Tense.

cj maxx · 27-04-2017 09:29PM

Charlie19 · 27-04-2017 09:29PM

Don't know, but it's definitely not the spectators who are winning. :pac:

Most of those really good players are used to CL football every year and there's not many clubs in England currently looking good to offer that annually.
We certainly don't, unfortunately.

I wouldn't mind finishing outside the top 4 so much, if it didn't mean having the play in the Europa league. Chelsea wouldn't have won the league this year, Leicester wouldn't have won it last year, United wouldn't have finished 4th the year before, and we wouldn't have finished 2nd the year before that, if it weren't for not having European games. The Europa league is a curse.

Can't understand this attitude, I'd much rather compete in any European competition than none. Some of the team's best moments came in last season's campaign.

I'm the opposite, in terms of our squad development, i think the EL would suit us better. More games for young players and fringe players and still the possibility of signing good players due to TV exposure.

And Thursday night's would suit me better in terms of getting to one or two games :pac:

noodler · 27-04-2017 09:37PM

Now that there's a CL place up for grabs I'm all for it.

jeff bingham · 27-04-2017 09:39PM

10m for Stewart to Brighton being mentioned. The price of players this summer could blow the last few years out of the water

Sadly no, nothing...yet. If I do, I'll let you all know

Not ideal.

I'm still not over Palace.

Just can't see us winning at Watford.

Well, they both lose the opportunity of gaining an extra 2 points, it will have to do.

Lord Trollington · 27-04-2017 09:56PM
