that box midfield is the new it thing. We sorta dabbled with it late last season for some period of time late in matches -- Trippier dropped in next to Bruno and we had 2 midfielders ahead and our front 3 ahead of that.

Arsenal did it with Zinchenko last year too, I think they will do it with Timber this season.

 

 

Ramsdale

 

White Saliba Gabriel

 

Timber Rice

And i hate that "proven in PL" thing, because it really does not mean a thing. Football is not that different in top level. Chris Wood is proven in PL, and you can easily find 50 better strikers that are cheaper from the continent. 

Yes, Mount is pretty young and English, and knows the league and culture and all that. He will not need time to adapt. Mount has had one very good season, and couple of average ones. His stats are pretty much similar to Harvey Barnes', who has been playing in a poor team. Sterling cost less than Mount, and his numbers are totally different.

IMO same thing that with players like Phillips, Maguire etc. As soon as English player shows some kind of promise, prices skyrocket. I think he will do ok for ManU, but he is not a world beater. Just like Barnes is not. Wages are ridiculous.

Yep. Harvey Barnes will probably go to West Ham for around 35m (accept that Mount is probably a bit more versatile).

Liverpool seem to get their transfers done and dusted without any fuss and with impressive speed.

I mean they’ve waited until the last possible moment to get this one done to be fair …

Great signing for the scousers, got to be said. I'd have absolutely loved him here based on what I've seen and read. 

 

It's going to take years to catch the likes of Liverpool up off the park though realistically, we've made massive strides in the last 18 months but pinching players like him from them will take a lot longer. I'm happy to wait though, it'll happen :)

The complete bed wetting session about to unfold on socials is going to be a fucking delight ?


It’ll be bonkers ? Some people will completely forget about how well we’ve done so far in transfers and that Howe and Ashworth understand exactly what’s needed and how to operate within FFP.

I don’t think it’s a crisis but losing out on both of our attacking midfielder targets isn’t a good look for us. I’m sure we’ll move on to other options but I’m really gutted about this one unlike Maddison. I can see him doing well for Liverpool.

Hopefully your manager wont claim poverty when he's likely spending 100m on 2 players in Mac Allister and Szoboszlai. I mean this will all due respect to you (class poster and contributor here) 

 

I just want to point out that I avoid participating in such discussions. This is your home, and you come on here to let off steam and legitimate issues against other clubs and that includes LFC. :)

 

I enjoy the discussion here. I enjoy getting the views of fans of another club which I respect, even if some of them are anti-LFC.  And unless I have something to contribute positively, I avoid posting. :)

He looks like a great player and given I cannot stand Liverpool in general bar a few sound pounds a i know so yeah it’s a little frustrating but you make a great point about being realistic where we are currently. We’re slowly posing these teams off more and more for me and that’s good enough for me ?
