Would also prefer to see Lallana playing as one of 3 central midfielders alongside Gerrard and possibly a more robust box to box midfielder (possibly Can). Mignolet Aurier Lovren Sakho Moreno Gerrard Lallana Can Markovic Reus Sturridge The above team is fantasy stuff of course, but has great balance to it.

Barca refuse to pay over £50m now that the ban is upheld. John Henry asks what they're smoking. Suarez stays. We win the league.

I'm not sure what big names are out there that want to come here that we are missing out on. I know plenty want Griezmann, and yes, he does look like a very good player, likewise Shaqiri. But I wouldn't call either "big" names and I don't think either are a) a patch on what we are losing (Suarez) or b) much better than what we have in Sturridge, Sterling and Coutinho. (not saying neither wouldn't be automatic starters here, of course they probably would, but I don't see them as no-brainer type signings that we have to make.

He signed a five year deal with liverpool on the 10th July 2014 which will earn him 100,000 dunkin donuts a week aswell as a free ride to melwood on ian ayre's Harley Davidson

Markovic very highly rated but is young and we just haven't seen enough of him yet. Just think this is an opportunity for the club to push the boat out a little that might not present itself next year. Maybe it will though.

I will sit in the corner and think about what I've done. Thanks for showing me what a terrible person I am.

It's not about how famous the players are or how expensive they are. It's about how well they fit in and perform for us this season and in the coming seasons. Spurs signed two big names last summer - Soldado and Lamela both for around 30m. Both were hyped and there was general devastation last summer that we got neither. Soldado completely flopped. Lamela didn't start great and then spent the rest of the season injured. If Markovic, Lallana and whoever else we sign have the impact that Coutinho or Sturridge have then I'll be happy

Rafa wanted money to spend and to lower the average age of the squad by bringing in players who were hungry for success. Moratti didn't agree. There are one or similarities in that regard with Moyes and Man U, except Rafa is a vastly superior coach, obviously As an Inter fan, you should know how insane Moratti is.
Despite that, he still won a couple of cups and it was still far too early for him to be sacked, IMHO.

Utopia Parkway wrote: » Anyways hopefully the club has some kind of surprise in store before the end of August because I find it hard to shake the feeling that list of players linked with us has been a bit underwhelming. I would expect us to be able to sign nearly all of them even without CL football. This Summer, Liverpool have both A. Champions League football and B. A huge pile of cash to spend. If you are going to bring in genuine quality you had better do it this Summer because we may not have either next Summer.
