    I'm not advocating it simply posing a question. I'm kind of a person that worries about the worst that can happen irrespective of how likely it is. Klopp to Utd, Mourinho to Liverpool , being attacked by a bear etc.

    Are we talking a full-on mauling here or just being swatted around a bit and left with some cuts and bruises?

    Either option is still better than Mourinho ever being considered to manage our club.

    I've seen people being chased by bears on youtube, it doesn't look like fun. I've no idea what happens if the bear catches you. It probably doesn't end well. Either scenario.

    Just remembered that time where we didn't play Matip for a few games because he was pulling out of the Cameroon squad and FIFA wouldn't get back to us for weeks to explain whether or not he was suspended.

    It depends on the time of the year. If they are getting ready to hibernate, they will kill and eat you. Look up the Werner Herzog documentary "Grizzly Man". That poor, unstable man and his girlfriend got eaten because they stayed too long. The bears will not eat you during high summer.

    Werner signed a new contract extension with Red Bull with release clause reported to be €30m.


    Reports Barca looking to sign Can from Juve I'd guess like Coutinho it didn't work out how he would have wanted.




    Werner will still go to Bayern. Can went for the money and can't blame him it was a ton of money I can see him ending up a Bayern as well in a year or two.

    Its early days but if he keeps playing like he did on Saturday we'll be wondering why we didnt pick him up ourselves before Southampton did.

    Our feeder club provides premiership experience for the player and de-risks the transaction for the bean counters, while maintaining a smaller and more manageable squad size for the senior team.
    Southampton has given a lot to Liverpool.
    Liverpool has given it Danny Ings in return.

    Brewster goal then a shocking mistake by Hoever.

    Hoever & Van Den Berg don't look ready for the 1st team judging by the opening 15 mins.

    You do realize they are both 17 don't you? De Ligt is the only one I can remember in recent times breaking into a first team at that age and Ajax aren't even on our level so it's easier to bring someone though especially when they are as good as him.

    Just watching the U23s now I've seen that link, a few decent attacks late in the half. The problem with these U23 sides is that they're often a bit of a pick and mix - why on earth is Chirivella still on the books for example.

    Brewster showing why he should never be allowed near the club ever again!
    Am I doing that right???

    The other 2 will play maybe domestic cup games. The idea that Hoever could step in for Trent or Van den Berg come in for a senior defender in a league game when we rotate is fanciful. Just keep praying we don't get injuries as Gomez is our only cover until Lovren maybe returns to the squad when the window shuts.

    Don't watch much of the u23's but Curtis Jones was very good in that 1st half, Brewster as well.

    That slow/dry pitch is doing nobody any favours, they're having to belt it to make a simple pass.

    The sprinklers were on at HT, the south coast is baking this summer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,621 ✭✭✭✭8-10


    Can we still make an agreement to sign someone next summer while the transfer window is still open elsewhere in Europe?

    I'd love a Naby Keita-style deal to be announced


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,059 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    Not if it's a loan back deal as that requires registration. I think

    A pre-release agreement for next January would be possible, but who would be available that you'd want?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,059 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    Liverpool corners are deadly at all levels.

    (pity the fella who is called Smallbone, even worse than Dixon-Boner! :D)

    :confused:
    All I have said is I dont think certain are ready for the 1st team yet. Not that they wont be in the future.

    Nice. But now i want to watch The Leftovers all over again..

    Naby wasn't a loan back deal, it was buy at a point in future for a fee agreed now. We didn't own him until the summer but agreement was already in place. I think Milan Baros was a similar deal though that was more an agreement that he'd join once he had enough appearances for a work permit.

    The likes of Origi, le Tallec, Pongolle on the other hand, were purchases that went back on loan straight away before joining.

    I'd be interested in Ryan Fraser most of all, though I think his contract is expiring so it's a different case - and already at an EPL club - but I think we should be going all out to sign him for next summer on a free. I'd probably be against bringing him or anyone else of that level in January unless we lose a player or have a real need at that point.

    My foreign league knowledge, outside of Ajax and Holland, is pretty poor these days but Kai Havertz is somebody I think looks great everytime I see him. Bruno Fernandes also has excellent stats, the kind of player you see on City's bench week in week out. Depth like that gets us to the next level.
