    Coutinho, Suso, Tex all starting. Thats going to be fun to see.

    Interesting to see Rossiter getting a run out too.

    Really, really interested in seeing how Illori looks this pre season.

    Im regards to illori do you think he be kept or loaned again this season ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    If the Moreno deal is dead and Davies is off to Spurs I would rather drop down to the Championship and have a look at someone like Cresswell rather than go for Betrand.

    Righsided fullbacks I'd like us to look at are Clyne (Southampton really would screw us on price and you can't blame them) and Trippier who I only saw a few times but by all accounts he really is top notch.

    Well, if Wisdom is going on loan, and we're not signing Lovern, I think he'll be kept. I really do think, that in two to three years time, he could be a quality center back for us.

    That pace of his is absolutely frightening, which always helps in terms of 'growing pains' for new players, especially defenders. Allows them to recover much more readily from inevitable mistakes.

    However, if we do sign another CB, I would not be surprised to see him on loan again, even if we do have the extra games this season.

    No 360 spin dribble stat unfortunately, and lol at Johnson having a positive defensive score. As a whole, I refuse to believe anything positive towards Johnson. Also got to remember that Flano was a RB covering at LB last season.

    5 goals, 9 assists in the Bundesliga last year.

    Averaging 3 tackles per game.

    Averaging 2.3 key passes per game (from left back!!!)

    Statistically the 2nd best player in the Bundesliga (note not 2nd best left-back, not 2nd best defender, 2nd best player, with only Ribery having a better season than him according to WhoScored)

    A very, very impressive World Cup.

    21 years-old.

    Playing for a team where we would represent a major step up.

    Not fully established so might not be on the radar of the likes of Madrid and Barca etc...


    Can somebody tell me why we're farting around with Moreno and not doing everything we can to sign Ricardo Rodriguez??! Here's a guy who looks like he would be worth every penny of a £20m bid!

    Rodriguez contract is up in 2 years and he appears to be the real deal. Now that the Moreno deal is off the table and for all the reasons highlighted by Morzadec we should be in for this guy.

    Knowing our luck we'll end up loaning them a player instead :p

    Rossiter looks like a boy amongst men out there, definitely not ready to be near the first team.

    Not trying to be funny but he is a boy ( he just turned 17 )who is only a day and half into full training for the season ahead what do you expect.

    I expected exactly this. I've seen some people saying that he should be around the first team squad this season. Just saying that hes nowhere near ready. Coutinho is so much better than everyone else on the field, its not funny. He's gonna be world class in a year or two.

    I would imagine its because after an in depth assessment of Rodriguez, it was decided he wasn't suitable. At least I hope so.

    Also, I thought he looked very ordinary in the World Cup.

    Chelsea pay 20 million (football365.com) for 28 year old Filipe Luis (29 next month)
    Liverpool won't pay 20 million for 22 year old Moreno (22 two weeks ago)

    Maybe they dont rate him at 20m and dont want to over-pay. Sustained progress will not be achieved by spunking our Suarez cash like we did with the torres cash. I'm delighted that the club have learnt from their mistakes and don't budge from their valuations of players, it's the only way forward imo.

    Coutinho, Ibe (finishing aside) and Peterson the highlights. The rest, meh.

    Hard to believe the new season is only a month away.
