Bueller? Bueller? Bueller? - LFC Transfer Thread - SUMMER 2023

it did get confusing.

best way to remember it was 1st half - W, 2nd half - M.

or was it the other way around?

 

Kenny Dalglish was 1 in a million.

asitis

 

and wore the 7.

same as Ian Callaghan. ahhhh -- simpler times .....

 

That's why no one can claim to be a 7 anymore.

 

Eintract Frankfurt's Markus Krosche has emerged as an option for Liverpool as the Reds look for a replacement for Julian Ward.

Mario Gotze has openly admitted he should have moved to Anfield several years ago and the 30 year old may get his move this summer.

Liverpool are considering an approach for Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella, who is likely to cost significantly less than Bellingham when the transfer window opens.

Liverpool have a genuine interest in the potential transfer of Chelsea attacking midfielder Mason Mount, and sense they could get a bargain.

Piotr Zielinski has been tipped by Fabrizio Romano to leave Napoli this summer, with the midfielder one of a number of midfield targets for Liverpool.

Juventus star Federico Chiesa is now growing unhappy owing to boss Massimiliano Allegri’s tactics. The Italy forward is now open to moves this summer and is a transfer target of Arsenal and Liverpool for this summer.

 

Bellingham is a ready made, day one star for us.
But if we sign him, do we need Mason Mount? I don't think so. But we would need to sign a ready made water carrier, somebody like Amrabat or Mateo Kovacic (could be available after the chavs' huge spend).
I'd then take a flyer on a free transfer, somebody like Skhiri from Cologne or either Asensio/Ceballos from real.
These moves alone would eat up anything we'd have to spend.

If we don't buy Bellingham, go buy Mount and buy Khephren Thuram.

But just as important as improving the midfield is re-stocking the talent elsewhere in our squad.
I love Gvardiol, but the odds are we won't be able to get him (whether we buy Bellingham or not).
Evan N'Dicka would be perfect as a) a free transfer, b) he plays as a left-sided CB, and c) is friends with Konate and has played alongside him through all the French age-level squads. I'll happily sacrifice Matip or Gomez to see him come in. At this point if PSG wanted Virgil for 50m I'd let him walk out the door to facilitate more turnover.

And I'd look to add some more talent to the front line with Bobby likely to leaving. Marcus Thuram would be a) free and b) a hugely talented addition to our front line at an optimal age. Or maybe (finally) sign Sarr as he's actually capable of playing on the RW for us.

Let Klopp have next season as one to integrate the new players while pushing for a CL spot, and then in 24-25 be ready to battle in his final two seasons for the league and CL.

 

I think Kevin Keegan was too...

That’s a start.

 

In other words, "Buy or I'm outtahere!"

 

Or, I gave this lot every possible opportunity to show me they still belong here and the have flunked. Dismally.

 

He's a unit.
He's absolutely bossed this match.

Bajcetic
Nunez
Diaz
Gakpo
Any bid comes in for any other player and I'd consider it.
