Everything is a wasted point with this club but...

 

Lookman, in isolation would be a decent shout. Hes young, British, has a bit of experience, is full of talent and will be looking to settle. Doing some Dennis Wising, he would add more of what ASM brings. So I could get on board with that.

 

Babel on the other hand, was only half decent at Liverpool and given his age would be an utterly ambitionless signing. I'm not really interested in players "doing a job" in the short term. Go and sign a proper striker FFS. Theres a mad Serb who would fit the bill.

It's the same every January scraping around for cheap loan deals. We wouldn't have too if we had focused on building a team, you don't see the likes of Leicester, Wolves and Everton carrying on like this

 

Except last January when we spent £20m on Miggy.

Lookman would be a waste here. Talented player that needs gametime and a manager that isn't from the shitty old-school of English FRET N PASSHUN gang. He would be wise to stay away, same as our home support.

If ASM and Alan Miron are fit, where does Lookman play? If he signs he'll be expecting to start based on that being why he's leaving RB. Can't see Bruce deviating from 5-2-2-1, so struggle to see how they all fit in

Because we defend deep Almiron and ASM have to put an extra shift in covering more ground and will be more injury prone .....and also need rotating more with Lookman (hopefully) and also to a lesser extent Atsu. We need 4 decent players in these positions .... without ASM we have really been a lot poorer and the team has suffered.

 

Lookman could be an excellent player for us coming in for ASM and Almiron when they are injured, need rotating, need resting, have run themselves into the ground, hit a poor run of form etc .... all three should get plenty of game time and Atsu as back up as well.

 

ASM is our best and most important player imo and has missed nine games so far .... of those games we have lost 7 and drawn one of those games. Lookman will plug that gap and more  .... if ASM pulls up again in one of our next games hopefully Lookman can help fill the void and if ASM or ALMIRON looks knackered we can put Lookman on rather than risk injuring them.

Very good player like. Guessing that’s Almiron or ASM benched unless he’s going to scrap the back 3 and go 4-2-3-1.

Where's this confidence that Lookman is better than those coming from? He's barely played since he was a kid
