Been a long time since we have wanted more players to leave than new players to sign at the end of a transfer window. Hell of alot of progress Liverpool have made in 2 years!

I think Balotelli makes more sense for us, and Falcao makes more for them. They need real firepower to mask their defensive failings, and to show that they cna still compete for the best players.
We need someone who can replace Suarez's ability to make something from nothing, and who our Rodgers can work with to get the best of, which is a strength of his...

It feels like there's been a very methodical approach to how we've signed players this summer.

We had a load of weaknesses - depth, goals in midfield, defenders, another quality forward, and we've got them, one after another.

Utd feel like they're throwing signings at the wall and seeing what sticks.
Arsenal have to an extent as well with their complete lack of signing a CF and a proper midfielder.

Would love a shock move for us today, any rumours going around?

Remember the Mata one last year at like 9PM, we got away with that one

Is it true Falcao has never played CL football?

Anyway who are we looking to ship out today? Lucas? Borini? Coates? Suso on loan? Anyone else?

Completely agree. It's actually great being at the end of a transfer window with job more or less done. Maybe Borini will go, maybe Lucas will go, maybe a sub keeper will come in, but nothing vital left to be done here.

TBH, it doesn't feel like the transfer deadline even applies to Liverpool, I've been more thinking about what signings rival teams might make today. Arsenal in particular.

He hasn't played it in 4 or 5 seasons but he has played in it.

Coates on loan to Sunderland, good move that.
Suso to stay and sign a new deal, maybe we'll need him as the games come think and fast.
Lucas to stay, he did start our first game ater all.
Borini to go to Southampton - that's my left-field call of the day!

United getting Falcao has an awful ring of "well let them eat cake" off it, it does however go to show how much the press/twitter experts know about transfer targets, eff all more then the rest of us

Just read that QPR are looking at Borini.

I doubt Lucas will be going anywhere unless there is a replacement brough in.

Mario on Instragram has been hilarious! He's a personality, no doubt about it!

Lucas playing was 100% a failed shop window effort. He was a surprise inclusion, we hooked him off early after a reasonably poor performance, and he hasn't been in the squad for the two games since*.

*I feel I should temper this by saying I was a big fan of Lucas, thought he'd be captain when Stevie finished up, but he just never bounced back right from that injury and I don't think he ever will. No point in having him around to make up the numbers, with Allen and Can we're amply equipped now.

James Pearce ‏@JamesPearceEcho 10 mins #LFC youngster Krisztian Adorjan also on the move today. Looks set to sign for Novara in Italy's Serie C

All over for Borini to #safc. QPR sniffing around now. Questions to be asked about the length of the pursuit - and of player too

Hmmm. That's disappointing. 14m is far more than we'll get for him elsewhere.

Last day though, we can play it up to Southampton, Villa, QPR - "We have a bid of £14M for Sunderland, you had better move fast..."

Ha, hopefully, though I imagine their people are just as informed as we are... "your move has just fallen apart LFC, you need rid, we'll give you 9m" is exactly what QPR will be at. TBH, he'd be a reasonable southampton signing! Fingers crossed

Got roundly slated on here for suggesting that.

I agree with all that actually. And if we need another CM for lesser games, I would bring in Rossiter, he's going to make a breakthrough this season.
Like Owen, Stevie, Raheem and God, no need for a loan, just bring them straight through...

Great win yesterday lads, delighted. Was very down about the manner of the City victory but it sounds like yesterday was reminiscent of some of the best of last year.

Hopefully the back four settles in and starts operating as a unit soon.

I cannot wait to buy FM15 and manage LFC in it with their current squad.

Why is Borini hanging around?

Id say his missus has a part to play in that. A fella I follow tweeted that Borini was going to Sunderland and she replied to him directly saying "think again" or something like that.

He could end up at Arsenal at this rate lol

Because LFC gave him a (insert #) year contract and he's not going to be forced to join a club he doesn't want to join? Would you?

I for one will be quite happy if he stays, I'd be happier if it didn't mean we were forgoing £14m but even so. I think he'll get a chance through injury/rotation etc and he might surprise a few people, he's mobile and full of energy. If he got a goal or two they might just start flying in. We did buy him for a reason.
