Did I just hear on Sky Spanish football that Negredo has gone to Valencia?

Loan deal?

The concern is more about the way Lille play, they are ultra defensive/dour. We have the two French loans the wrong way round - Origi would flourish at Bordeaux while Ilori would be better employed at Lille. But there we are.

Kalou gone now so he will get more game time.

Yeah and am I right in saying that Valencia have a wad of cash from new owners now so prob a permanent move for Negredo!

Not unless they can rustle up an additional 30m in incoming money.

I can't see that being a problem for them!

Wasn't Negredo left out of the CL panel because of the home player rule, unlikely they need to bring anyone else in

Was really worried about this game but came through it very well. Very impressed with the performance.

A standout 'play' for me was Morenos goal. Even though Enrique was ok going forward and Flannagan was solid last season, we didn't have a real goal threat over lapping from LB for quite a while (Riise?). Nice to see another outlet for attack.

Coates going to Sunderland is a good move too!

It will. They can only have a net spend this summer of 49m or so, and they are already at 25m net spend (rough figures). The restrictions are part of their FFP penalty.

I think he was talking about FFP.

Maybe £20m for Negredo and then try get £10m by selling the likes of Richards, Scott Sinclair or Javi Garcia (is he still there?)

"Defensively, he was very good," Rodgers commented when asked about the Frenchman's return. "He'll get smoother on the ball the more he plays.

"When they come back [from the international break], we have got a lot of games. His aggression, tenacity and spirit was very important for us and I thought he did very well."

Looking at Madrid on SS5, they were two up but are now behind......like Dublin, not invincible it seems.

6 pts from a possible 9. Can't complain with that. Great to pick up those pts before cl kicks off.
Today was a bit similar to last Monday night with defensive errors. Difference was today Spurs didn't have the killer instinct that Man City showed in punishing Liverpools errors.

Delighted to see Moreno get on the score sheet, especially after that f*cuk up Monday night. Should help him settle in nicely which I feared when you consider how broken up he was leaving Sevilla.

Gerarrds passing was simply cat. At one stage he attempted a short pass from a free and gave it straight to a Spurs place, think it was just before HT. I'd like to see some options explored for the base of midfield in League Cup or closing stages of comfortable league games. No way Gerarrd will be able for PL at the weekend, CL midweek and PL again at the weekend.

Here's hoping all return from the international break unscathed.

Madrid they said...

Invincible they said....!

Bring it on!!

ebbsy · 31-08-2014 09:36PM

Now 4-2 behind, dreadful at the back.

Sensational attacking players, but there goalkeeper is bang average and I just dont rate pepe or ramos as central defenders.

They are playing Isco, Modric and Kroos in the middle who dont offer any real defensive work rate.

They can be got at absolutely but we will have to be at the very top of our game at anfield.

Agent Coulson · 31-08-2014 09:45PM

Coates to Sunderland on loan by the looks of it.

You make it sound much worse than it was. Balotelli basically created the chance, it broke back to him and under pressure from Lloris 40 yards from goal he skewed it.

What do you mean I make it sound worse, I was noting the humerous moment when you could see Rodgers in a fit of laughter in the background. So what if Balotelli missed who cares

Interesting, 4 senior centre backs should be enough for the season. I wonder what will happen with him and ilori next summer when toure presumably leaves.

Hidalgo · 31-08-2014 09:59PM

One thing I've noticed and must say I like about Moreno is that he's aggresive. Not afraid to get stuck in when trying to win the ball. Really like that in a player.
Liverpool were fairly effective with possession today. Only around 39% I think yet created lots of chances. Also held Spurs to just a single shot on target and that was due to Lovren and Sakho going for the same ball.

Most pleasing aspect from a defensive pov was dealing with corners. Usually a heart in mouth scenario but by and large they were easily repelled today.

Manquillo loves a tackle just as much. With the back 4 we had out today, they all love a to go to ground.

Great in some ways, terrifying in others!

Well that was wonderful today.
