@TonyBarretTimes: Brendan Rodgers has confirmed that @LFC are yet to dip into the proceeds of Luis Suarez's sale despite spending £60m already this summer.

There we have it, plenty of money still to be spent.

That's good, I was getting a bit worried with the links to Bertrand and Richards that there mightn't be as much as reported available. The likes of Davies and Richards would still leave plenty over.

I maintain Mignolet was an improvement on Reina over his last 3 seasons, but I lost count the amount of times I shat a brick when the ball came back to Mignolet during matches. I've never seen a goalkeeper so nervous on the ball since playing under age level. The sweeping part is vitally important too and something he completely lacks. Lloris would be ideal in that regards.

Lloris is a great keeper but he takes sweeping to level Neuer without the conviction. I don't think I'd be able to watch him without a couple of mini heart attacks throughout the season.

Liverpool are not signing Reus though -_-

Seems plausible enough. Team should look something like this come September:

Mignolet
Aurier--Lovren--Sakho--Davies

Pogba

Vidal

Reus
--Sanchez

Suarez

Remy

I dunno mate, two centre backs who both like to play lcb in the same team seems totally implausible to me you are dreaming with that

Can usually take the Echo seriously.

So looks like we've given up on Bony in favour of Remy. I would have preferred the latter, though certainly Remy at less than half the price makes more sense. Should be a good piece of business. Would be nice to have that goalscoring option off the bench in games.

So we can expect more signings but in what areas?

Lovren still seems to be a priority, but if £20m has already been rejected I can't see us going much higher.

Seems we are keen on Ben Davies, though again £8m has been rejected - is he worth it to go higher? I'm not sure if he's an upgrade on Enrique, though certainly more backup here would be nice.

What else?

A goalkeeper maybe? Talk about Mignolet not being fancied and it's a long season ahead.

The players linked still seem more like squad fillers at the moment, would be nice if we heard some real links towards some bigger names.

It's going to be interesting next season though, a lot of new faces. It looks like we are going to see a massive outlay this summer. Rodgers' Liverpool regime could end up being defined by how successful these signings become.

It's a big window, no doubt about it.

I think he's one of few notable, decent sweeper keepers around, IMO.

You bought into the Mourinho horse manure in my opinion. I firmly believe Mourinho talked Chelsea out of the title.

Nah, we knew City had a slightly better team overall.
We were more surprised than anyone that we were on their coats, they slipped up a lot more than I thought would happen.

I'm still struggling to see Mourinho's Chelsea as some sort of plucky underdog, just happy to be in the conversation.

If he was a little more positive, you could easily have won it.

Be interesting to see has he changed his attitude for this season.

Id prefer remy over bony I think he would suit us more and he could play off the right hand side if needed.

Sappy404

Interesting that the Remy thing was mentioned by so many. Did Barrett tweet it before press time or did everyone get briefed by someone?

Personally I don't know why we wouldn't go for him. We've been linked before and the £8m price tag has been mooted all summer. He's worth more. I mean we're selling Assaidi for most of it, and Borini will go for more, probably.

You have to tip your hat to Mourinho. He finished third in the league with that squad and received zero criticism, nay barely a raised eyebrow, from Chelsea fans.

Chip Whitley

Yep, gotta say the Remy link makes a lot more sense to me than the Bony one. I trust BR and the committee, but the rumours of signing Bony were leaving me seriously underwhelmed.

Nice little squad we'll have if a few of these 'mooted' deals actually happen.

Dont be at yourself

Pretty clear that selected journalists are being briefed by the club all summer. It's happened a number of times that a rumour or story has broken across the Guardian, Times, BBC, Echo and the Mirror with similar details and even phrasing.

Looks like Remy, Lovren are the current order of business.

The reason Chelsea lost the title - the only reason Chelsea lost the title was because you dropped 11 points in the last 9 games against Villa, Palace, Sunderland and Norwich. Win any two of those games, and you're champions now.

klose

So if we still haven't dipped into the suarez fund and its "reliably" reported rodgers wants at least 5 more signings you are talking 15-20 mill players we will be after and no "marquee" signings that some yearn for. Of course thats grand if we go look around europe but it seems to be mostly premiership players we are targeting thus far.

Any time in feel maudlin over Suarez I watch Sterling videos and all is right with the world again, looking at the pace, body strength and passing on display in those videos we really do have a special talent on our hands.

rob316

I really can't understand why anyone hasn't got remy yet. £8m is a pure bargain even if he is looking for 80 - 100k per week.

Hoping we wrap this up quick.

Sir Gallagher

Do yous reckon it could be time to give Sterling the no.7 shirt. Could be an added boost for him going into this season.

El Inho

Ya know, when ya look at this list, ya realise we don't need much more.

It's great to see Pepe back in the running. Truly hope we keep him there to keep pressure on Mingolet. But overall thats a decent list of players. Considering this 33 man list gets cut down to 25, excluding those outside selection terms (ie young lads), we've a strong potential 25. Maybe some defensive reinforcements would be welcomed and another attacking option.

I think it's just refreshing to see the squad on paper. I also trust that if there's more signings, Rodgers can combat the whole Spurs-Bale syndrome.

El Inho

no way. unneccessary pressure. should be for a marquee signing.
