100% everyone wants a striker. Always. They are the highest value players and biggest game changes by far. Their value can sky rocket on the back of a purple patch. It's why beating Moyes with the can't sign strikers stick is crazy. He bought...
There's been attempts between the two teams in between now and back then.
This might make you laugh, but the data guy who basically transformed Liverpool's recruitment has written a book called "How to win the Premier League", there's a passage...
I was only about 12 myself when he left, but I remember him being poor and was very surprised Liverpool went in for him.
Most prominent memory of him is Gazza leaning out the window shouting “don’t go Abel!” as we were selling him, probably...
I’ve always liked Dom as a footballer and as a bloke, though admittedly not always as a striker because he’s not a natural finisher and massively underperforms his xG most years.
It’s clear he won’t be staying, and I think we should take the...
Didn’t know you were poached by Liverpool Eggs.
I’ll see myself out. But before I do, injuries aside it’s genuinely just difficult to see us signing a player from the RS. From memory the last player to cross the park was Abel Xavier (which was...
….i’ve posted similar, it’s particularly risky for players reliant on pace.
The lad might turn out to have a robust career, but for big muscle injuries to surface at such a young age is a major concern. Not surprising the RS have given the sale...
If we did a Chelsea and sell Goodison to the women’s team for big money, then stick all the signings on 5-6 year deals it would definitely be possible.
It's just realism. I'd love him to disappear and us go and sign someone great to replace him but the reality is that we would be very likely to just sign someone who is at best as good as he is and so be absolutely no better off. There's an...
Could see him being a £30m + add ons kind of player. Exactly the kind of player we should be going for. Right age, talent, potential sell on value etc.
Only problem is we need about 5 or 6 £30m players to really improve, and as you say it’s...
Tbh that's how I'm starting to feel, with City's eight year psr case still ongoing, Man United's debts, redundancies farce and just waiting to sell the thirty year old Fernandes to the Saudi's for a proposed £100m, to make it alright. Then you...
United are a shambles and apparently don’t have enough cash for the end of the year unless they cancel free lunches. - drop 115 million on two attackers within 2 days of the window opening.
Everton are back on the up, new owners, new stadium...
If Hoijlund and Zirkzee for 110 mill don’t work just drop another 110 mill on Cunha and Mbuemo.
All this after signing Sancho and Antony also and getting zero return from them.
No matter though because there’s always more money for these...
I can't believe that he is only 25, as it feels that he has been around for much longer than that. I don't think that move makes much sense for him when he seemed settled at Brentford, who could now be at risk of falling down the table if they...
