Fair, I've only seen him a couple of times in passing and he didn't look offensively bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many quality players in Europe and beyond on relatively modest salaries with acceptable release clauses. You have a list? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This feels like an utter shitshow, they've got a week to get some signings in and it feels at this rate like we'll be offering Emmerson Boyce and Chris Iwelumo £5m each to come out of retirement. Howe, imo. Might be wrong - how many foreign players did he buy at Bournemouth? Seem to remember quite a few were domestic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ9 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) Will see what happens at the end of the window, but so far it looks like a clusterfuck Edited January 25, 2022 by alijmitchell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I barely have opinions this strong on most of our players, let alone one that's played about 20 games in four years at Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Feb 1st, if we don't get quality players signed, owners deserve the flak that'll be coming their from some of our fans. I'd be embarrassed and dissapointed too if I were them with everything they said they had plan early for this particular window yet, if it turns bad, then there is no one else to blame really.

Andy Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Don't really know much about Nat Phillips as a player, but the only transfer link I can even see regarding him is the opinion of Mark Douglas on the previous page?

oldtype Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 IMO it's not surprising at all that they're struggling to reposition once their initial targets slipped away, given that we don't even have a permanent director of football in place and are probably relying entirely on scouting data from the old regime.

Yorkie Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I still feel pretty chilled tbh. We needed to make signings prior to our January league games and we did, with both of those players contributing to a far-from-disastrous haul of four points from six. So we've earned ourselves the luxury of making more additions later in the window which, again, is far from being a major issue and is typical of this market in any case. I've no problem with swerving on the likes of Carlos to retain a precedent of not being exploited. Nor do I have a problem with swerving on the likes of Coutinho, whose primary interest is a massively inflated wage bill and who would upset a fragile dressing room that cannot afford to become toxic if we're to survive. Six days to chase down attainable targets and get them signed. It should be doable and they all count even if it's by teatime tonight or by midnight on the 31st. Let's save our rage for the morning after, if necessary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I quite like Nat Phillips (not enough to go back and forth with posters and get roasted for it ) but there’s no getting away from the fact that he’d be a massive downgrade on Botman and Carlos.
