He reminds me quite a lot of Shearer. He doesn't think twice about putting his foot through the ball when he gets an opportunity.

He has so much power, an absolute nightmare for defenders.

The thing I like about Bony is the ball sticks with him when he receives it - much more than with Suarez in fact.

The thing I don't like so much is that the play tends to slow a bit when he gets involved.

Reus will ultimately go to Barca. There was a lot of talk about it before he got injured earlier in the summer.

We'll probably make a profit on him as well.

Any word on the fee for Suarez? How much was up front? How many installments, over what period of time?

My own two cents on who should replace Suarez: Pool should go for a striker with a lot of pace. That way they don't have to adjust their style of play too much. It's the way the played that made them so successful last season, and the final months of the previous season.

I think bringing in Bony would be a mistake, as he's no the quickest. Liverpool would have to adjust to having him in the team.

Liverpool, though?

All the world's clubs would be queueing up around the block for him. Why would he pick Liverpool?

Because they're a great bunch of lads.

He wouldn't.

The only clubs that might have a chance in England would be city and Chelsea if he wanted massive money.

He'd going nowhere anyway.

Hi all long time lurker, in over the wall while I can, I have no idea how you even post normally on this forum. Bit of a ramble about last season,

Last season was immense,epic,surreal,heartbreaking,joyous,upsetting, fearful,and downright amazing.
Last year was pretty rough as dad was very ill, he is fine now though.
In that context (and other bad **** I won't bore you with) I pretty much clung onto the team like a Scottish man looks after his wallet.
At the start I was quite happy with the season, mid way I was getting excited and the run in I was a nervous wreck. I like a lot of posters here and I remember kess73 post about being in the title hunt, and it was then I really started to feel it might happen.

To describe the feeling it was like being in a corridor and there was this door closed at the end.As the run in got exciting I could feel I was getting closer. When we bet man city, the door was somewhat open, and I can tell you now it was the most amazing view you will ever see. Nothing in your life will compare at that moment. When we lost to Chelsea the door closed, and after crystal palace, I was back at the start of the corridor. But, you know what them weeks of being top and dreaming of it, what a feeling.

In practical terms from my waffling above that meant not sleeping, thinking about it all the time, wore out waiting on the Monday waiting for the next weekend while also dreading the stress of it, then the sheer stress of the match, followed by a bizarre mix of utter exhaustion and sheer elation.
After the man city match I went to bed for a nap! After the Chelsea match had to meet a friend for his birthday, get rat arsed went to john power gig (epic) and fell into bed at 12. Woke up and that micro second where you think it might not have happened, and then the crushing reality that it had.

I just knew it was over then, I don't know why just felt it. Moped about for about a week when we lost the league, and still quite upset at times, but I am mostly happy. Very Happy. We were an insane team, 5-3, 4-1, 6-0, it was a joy to watch, and Suarez was a sight to behold. I did not care for his other crap, but that what you get sometimes with a mad genius!
Very sad he had left, the stunning supermodel that's a bit nuts that walks out on you is a good analogy.

Anyway enough rambling, nice to get this out of my system, looking forward to next year, hope we do the bizo in the transfer market. I am not sure what next season will bring, but I will still be on the crazy roller coaster of emotions that is liverpool fc no matter what:)

According to Football365, Utd have met with Arturo Vidal regarding a £35m move from Juventus. Now this is really disappointing. He's the calibre of people we should be really competing for.

While Sanchez's preference of Arsenal over LFC is understandable given both Champions League football and the London highlife, Vidal will have neither at Utd. At least at LFC he would have Champions League. Perhaps a quick swoop for Gary Medel from Cardiff (as defensive cover) would help swing a deal for Vidal? Two Chileans in the squad?

Looking forward to seeing who Rodgers brings in.

We've had excellent, 'World Class' players at the club, but when's the last time we actually *bought* a 'World Class' player? We've bought a few when they were younger who then developed into that level of player (Suarez being the obvious most recent example) but I can't really think of anyone we've bought who was one of the best in the world when we bought them.

The point I'm trying to make is we're not a Barcelona or Real, and we won't be in that strata unless we start winning leagues year in year out and challenging for the European Cup every year. Until then, if we uncover gems of players, they *will* eventually move up to the higher level clubs, just like players move up to us from 'lower level' clubs.

We're never going to replace Suarez with a player at the same level, or even close. It's always going to be about buying potential 'World Class' players for us, for the foreseeable future at least. The difference that a great season, great attacking football and CL qualification gets us is that we can get better players with more obvious potential, instead of possible diamonds in the rough that could still only be coal...

Agreed , factor in how cold and wet Liverpool is in winter and it not being a capital city i think plays some part in transfers also in the modern game . Plus of course the BIG money .

With Bony and Origi, we should be able to work a few puns and euphemisms in, next year.

Which is, of course, our year.

I don't think Liverpool not being the capital of England has too much of an impact on the clubs ability to attract players

They're quoting the Mail in their daily gossip roundup. They don't offer any rumour or claim any credit for this stuff.

Can't see why we'd need to get rid of Borini in that case.

He scores in big games. He did it with Swansea he did it with Roma and he certainly did it with Sunderland last season. Our scoring record in big games isn't the best, can't see Bony or Remy improving it. I can see Borini improving it.

Is Reus fast?

Suarez updated his cover photo on FB, I don't know whether to laugh or cry at the comments below.

SlickRic

Sturridge, Lambert, Bony, Sterling, Lallana, Coutinho.

hmmm. not bad.

my instinct tells me we'd need something more.

Supposedly Liverpool's strike force has gone from SAS to LOL (Lallana, Origi, Lambert).

I would imagine the fee will be paid in one go . I would say that was the sticky point . Barcelona probably wanted to pay instalments and LFC said no we want every penny up front .
