Topic: LIVERPOOL TRANSFER THREAD - 2023 (FSG posts = get muted) - No Mbappé

["Bobber" Thanks :)]

We need a top CB with a proven fitness history. We need a quality 6 with speed and legs. We need a new quality winger with speed and end product like Mane and a new striker if there’s any budget left.

All doable this summer imo.

Two quality wingers, not just one.

[killer-heels]

Honestly three top class players and we will be flying. Defence, midfield and attack.

[Samie]

We need a pure #6 that has no issues with mobility.  Endo is a good backup but that's all he is.

I'd agree to an extent, you don't really know how the players are going to come back after a run of results like this in the summer, + a new manager with International competitions followed by flying across America doesn't sound like ideal prep.But yeah, in general this squad is still super talented and as much as we are shooting ourselves in the foot at times we're just getting fucked a bit. Theres a lot of talent and some obvious upgrades. No unexpected exits and this shouldn't be a hard summer to plan for.

Would love to know the 6s knocking around Europe that are u25, 150+ appearances, 6ft+, have pace, agility, power, can play on the half turn, can pass progressively well, have intelligence, character and ideally play for a team below us in the premier league or play for a club willing to sell in Europe.

I don’t think that player exists so what traits are we prioritising/sacrificing?

["Bobber" Thanks :)]

I’d like to see a bit more technique in our play, whether that’s through new players or coaching the existing ones. Too often we give the ball away with poor passing choices, too many of our players play passes that are too short or behind or to the side of the player receiving the pass, making the player have to work and run to collect the ball whilst jarring our rhythm.

[eddiedingle]

Olise at Palace looks a talent.

[Draex]

Did he have a bag of kfc?

A few weeks ago, I think most people would have assumed a CB and a back-up GK (to replace Adrian and/or Kelleher) would have been likely. Got to think CB, LB, DM and a forward are now all on the agenda

Id throw the entire budget and then some on the best centreback, midfielder and attacker we can get. I wouldnt waste time now with full backs or talented number 8’s. Go right down the spine and worry about the outsides later.

Agree, only part of our spine remaining is Alisson and VVD. The rest of the spine we had never got replaced adequately. But we do need at least 1 quality winger with real output like when Mane come in.

[TepidT2O]

Well that’s one in the bag.

He plays right back with Bradley and Trent goes to midfield  (or is sold)

To be honest if it is an attacker that plays out wide then its fine as well. I meant more top quality injected into the different areas. The only specialists are a centre back and a defensive minded midfielder.

You'd surely sacrifice on the ball stuff given who else is in the make up of the midfield. It's also not like Endo, Henderson or Fabinho are/were elite on the ball, although I get with a different manager this may not be the same.

Trent feels like the elephant in the room. There hasn’t been much noise about a contract, has there?

[Barefoot Doctor]

Geertruida does look interesting. If we signed him it wouldn’t be because Slot is the new boss, just because he has a good stats profile. Just as likely he goes to West Ham mind - or was just on a trip to London given Feyenoord don’t play again till next weekend.

Our DoF hasn’t officially started yet,  give them a chance!

Why would he be sitting with Liverpool fans if he was going to West Ham??

Weirdly he's played left back this season!

[Barefoot Doctor]

Oh was he? Didn’t pick that up. Fair chance he just got spares from Gakpo, Gravenberch or Virgil…

[Lynndenberries]

I think he’ll stay, there’s just a lot of moving pieces. There’s still those questions about where he should play and where he wants to play.

[Agent99]

Hasn't Geertruida been playing as the RCB with Virg for the National team?

Does seem to be a very similar player to Joe though.

[BER]

From what I've heard about him, fullbacks are going to be a priority for Slot.

[Samie]

Wingers, not full backs.   

[Caligula?]

We probably need another CB, a defensive midfielder and another attacker. Obviously that's subject to change should we lose a few players but even if nobody left that should probably be the bare minimum.

[Draex]

From what I've heard about him, fullbacks are going to be a priority for Slot.

I watched a video and his fullbacks invert with Gertrude playing left back as they end up with a back three in possession.

The guy seemed to indicate Bradley would be perfect for right back and Trent as the right sided 8.

This thread is boring AF without Macred/PetertheRed. Whatever happened to him? 

[Samie]

Nothing, he was here yesterday. 

[Draex]

They don’t invert like we do, they play short passes.

[Sheer Magnetism]

I thought the Liverpool were sat at the other end. From the photo it looks just above where I was sitting.

[BobPaisley3]

Going to be very busy in here over the coming weeks.

[Agent99]

I just cringe at that word now.

[killer-heels]

Fingers crossed. Yay to new toys.

Digging them Scouser girls, I guess

Did he stop posting? I know he threatened to leave multiple times.

[Samie]

No, he's still posting.
