If Markovic and Origi are confirmed today, then the squad is practically bulging at the seams.

G - Mignolet, Reina, Jones, Vigouroux
D - Agger, Skrtel, Johnson, Enrique, Flanagan, Sakho, Toure, Ilori, Wisdom, Kelly, Robinson, Coates, Stewart
M - Allen, Gerrard, Henderson, Lucas, Lallana, Can, Coutinho, Teixeira, Rossiter
F - Sterling, Sturridge, Origi, Markovic, Borini, Aspas, Lambert, Ibe, Assaidi, Yesil, Suso

For all the talk of buying another central defender, do people not realise we already have 8 central defenders, all of whom would be good enough to play in the Premier League?

By all accounts Agger is on his way out. Our 3 main CB's this year should be Sakho, Lovren if he comes in and Skrtel.

Sakho is comfortably our best CH

And hes by no means world class. Surely getting someone in there beside him is a priority

The defense was the problems last year and needs to be addressed IMO. Skertel and Sahko arent good enough and it showed last year. Agger doesnt seem to get much of a look in for what ever reasons and Toure is past it. At least 1 CB is needed esp if Luis's goals arent around this year.

I think our defensive problem is further up the pitch. CBs need more cover than they were getting last season

It does seem we are after a lot of young squad players, while I see the logic and we do need upgrades more so than our rivals, it's a bit underwhelming so far. We need to be replacing Suarez with the finished article like Sanchez, not potential. It's kind of hard to see what the bigger picture is if we don't. Early days yet and it seems big enough money is there, even after the Suarez money. Might just have to kidnap Sanchez!

If he turned out like Erikson was in the second half of the season I would be quite happy

Think the squad will be more balanced than last season.

Last season we had a set starting 11 and very little after that.

Looks like we will now have a group of 20 players or so who will be competent to start any game.

Markovich instead of Suarez? Ah no. 5 goals in the Portuguese league replacing the third best player in the world? No I do not like the sound of that!

If we signed Markovich for 10 million no one would expect him to start. Its only the fee that has people thinking it.

Lallana replacing Allen is a possibility I suppose but I could see Lallana rotating with Coutinho/Allen/Henderson and even Sterling from time to time instead of outright replacing any of them.

With Sturridge, Lambert and Markovich at teh club, and after paying €25 for Markovich, I cant see him warming the bench. Id imagine hes Luis replacement alright

Combined total there of 74 million which uses up the Suarez fee. I know there is a long way to go in the summer window and I HOPE that FSG are actually going to invest some funds and not just spend the Suarez money but so far, thats 5 signings and not one of them would be considered a first team starter.

If the above are added for strength in depth then great but we seriously need to add one or two players that would be considered a level above. In my eyes we have over spent by about 10 million on Lallana and I am puzzled about the Markovich signing. Scored 5 goals last season for benfica and we are paying the guts of 25 million for him.

If you add in the £20 million for Lovren....I am not liking the way this window is going.

The way it seems is that all those figures are the potential fees if a lot of clauses are triggered, apart from maybe Lambert. The Markovic fee has been rumoured to be able to rise to 25 million euro. Origi can rise to 10 million pound. Lallana is supposedly 16 million with the potential to rise to 23. I don't think we're paying these hefty fees up front. We also massively need strength in depth so when we're chasing games we don't have the likes of Aspas coming on and whipping in those killer corners we've come to expect from him. The window has been open a week and we've already done quite a lot of business, and if the rumours are to be believed we're trying desperately to get Alexis Sanchez.

Seems pretty productive to me.

Bit surprised Liverpool aren't using their CL status to make this the summer they sign those players that wouldn't have joined last summer.

I get that Rodgers is planning for the future etc and he seems to have an eye for a player, but id have thought this was a summer to capitalise.

Nearly everyone thought Spurs spent brilliantly last Summer. Sure they entered the season with praise ringing in their ears and highly fancied to get a CL spot.

What derailed them was troubles with their manager, Lamela barely kicking a ball for them and Soldado more or less flopping.

Despite all that they still managed only 3 points less than the season before when Bale was performing heroics every week and finished only one position down the league than the season before (and that was only because we shot up from 7th to 2nd).

Out of here with your sensible talk!!!

I'm starting to think some people just want to lose their heads around here. Just relax and enjoy the ride. Losing Suarez will not be nice to put it mildly, but I'm actually looking forward to this next chapter. It will tell us a lot about Rodgers and the bar he has set himself.
