didnt realise the Cissokho deal was done.

Which leads to a busy day ahead me thinks....would people be happy if the business ended at Willian?

Yes, given that we have retained Suarez (for now), removed Downing and Carroll, and have a full season to look forward to with 4 top class attackers. Would have liked Papa, but he doesn't seem to be ready after his injury yet. Maybe in Jan?

A couple of years back I was really bored and put together a list of all the posters number of posts from all the LFC superthreads I could find. It would be insanity to try and update it though, but it did show an interesting rise/fall in certain posters, with not a huge amount of constant posters over the years.

Did I mention I was incredibly bored? I did a couple of versions months apart, I'll see if I can find the last one I did, but it covered all LFC superthreads up to that point which covered the years 2007-2011 or so I think.

So who will be the new Boo Boy now that Downing is gone ?

Downing is gone. Isn't that just a beautiful thing.

No more screaming at the TV telling him to run FORWARD and take on a player. No more watching him turn back. Stop. Look. Then pass it 5 yards square or 5 yards back. Thank F*ck.

We should all be rejoicing.

Borini. Next!

He's very versatile. A bit like Suarez and Coutinho. He can play left, right or through the middle.

Who do you want dropped??

Ideally replaced with who?

Id like Allen and Lucas replaced in midfield and Skrtel replaced at CB with Jones replaced from backup keeper. Ideally Shay Given from Villa for backup but he wasnt a first team position apparently.

Lucas for the new CM as he's not up to it. And Skrtel for the new CB. Fairly obvious choices I would think.

If Willian and Cissokho came in and that was it for the window, then no would be my answer because I think CB and CM are the two areas with the most pressing need for new quality ( discounting the whole Suarez saga)

I do....I expect him to take replace Enrique within a month.

Not overly excited as I was hoping for Siqueira and a team full of Brazilians but I still think Cissokho will find some form and do enough to get a starting place on the team.

I hope you're right

Dont be at yourself

Cissoko agreement 'in principal' could just be brinksmanship with Granada, who've supposedly been trying to hike up the fee from what they initially quoted. Wouldn't totally rule out the Siquiera move at the moment.

Regarding Willian: £35m seems far too much for me, especially with Anzhi basically holding a fire sale.

With regards people asking about my list for better players than Suarez last night I looked around and this is one from the Guardian 8 months ago that has him 21st. Now, there are players both above him like David Silva and Neymar who I'd have below him and players like Reus, Gotse, Rooney and Mata who I'd have ahead of him but it shows that until the 2nd half of this season he was nowhere near the top 10 players in the world like was claimed last night.

I don't quite like these lists as it's difficult to judge a forward against a midfielder/defender but there is Ronaldo, Messi, RVP, Cavani, Falcao and maybe Aguero to consider before you even look at Suarez. Just because he had a good season scoring wise last season he is being reached up to high heavens but what about the one before? The players above mentioned have done it consistently. Aguero was injured a lot of last season but his previous record speaks for itself. Suarez is in form, but can he keep up that form and how will moving to a team where he's not the big fish effect him. It's the same problem I have with Bale tbh and I rate Suarez much higher than Bale.

We need a bit of LB cover anyway, but I really hope the backroom team arent wasting too much time over this guy if he is only going to be a squad player

I don't think Cissokho will oust Enrique, its real shame we didn't get that Brazilian lad.

IMO Cissokho looks another player to improve the squad but not the team!

NukaCola

Cissokho is a decent signing......if he shows some form he could be a first teamer, but we need cover and competition at LB, so i'd be happy with that.

Now we need:

Cover for GK
Starting CB
DM
Starting attacker

Realistically this wont happen, but an attacker and CB is priority.

So Sky and the Echo are both saying we are in discussions for Willian. Sky don't mention any other team. He mentioned us by name in an interview yesterday.

We know what it'll cost, just get it done. If we do, all the pain of removing higher paid, aging players (Kuyt, Bellamy, Maxi, Downing, Reina) will have been worth it.
We'll have a young, dynamic, highly skillful attack - real firepower!

If we don't get Willian then these public bids on Mkhitaryan, Sequieria etc are all just smokescreens put out by the club to appear that that are really bidding but missing out whilst in fact imposing austerity.

Bar mignolet the players we have bought this year have being all squad players

Toure I don't think was bought with the intention of starting in the 1st team, Papa was earmarked with Agger

What started out brightly with squad players being signed up quickly gave a false sense of hope that our transfer activity was being greatly improved compared to last summer

Given however we have signed no other 1st team players and the fact that we are unsure what Suarez will be at the club, how are we going to turn a lot of those draws into wins, ( celtic game although a friendly still reminded us of a lot of games last year, lots of possession etc but no end product ) and stop teams attacking us through the centre (hopefully lucas with a full preseason behind him can regain his form.

Here's looking forward to tomorrow and lets hope stoke are less physical than last year,
mignolet, johnson,toure,enrique,lucas, allen,gerrard, countinho,aspas,sterling
