Apparently Liverpool are going to sign fekir August 4th? Any truth? And now that malcom has signed for Barcelona what are the chances of us getting dembele?
1.) 25 Jul 2018 07:15:00
twitter nonsense.

It's true, we'll sign Fekir on the 4 Aug 2018 at 12:10:59.
This story came from Jean Sebastien on twitter, pay no attention mate if its from that site because 99.9% of the time it's nonsense. For the record, I do still believe Fekir will sign, but saying he's going to sign on X day is pretty daft, how would he know that lol.

hahaha, why August 4 specifically? Because he wants to catch the Cheltenham Cheese and chilli festival? Or because it's the anniversary of the death of King Henry I (the French one)? Or to commemorate the unification of the Duchy of Brittany with the Kingdom of France? Or maybe Napoleon's victory at the battle of Lonato? No no, it must be to celebrate the invention of champagne by Dom Perignon. That's the one. Looking forward to it. :)

How can anyone be so stupid as to believe this garbage from Twitter!
It’s actually going to be announced on Monday August 6th, time TBA but the wind in Liverpool will be in a westerly direction and Klopp will be wearing green trainers in the photo shoot.
A little birdie told me 😉.

Jurgen, a lot of time googling that date I see or you are a master Pub Quiz guy.
6.) 25 Jul 2018 08:40:47
Cheltenham Cheese and chilli festival - love it Jurgen!
7.) 25 Jul 2018 08:42:11
I promise, that was all off the top of my head. Ask me another one.

Is Fekir flying in the Babelcopter?
9.) 25 Jul 2018 16:11:05
He wants to get here before the hose pipe ban kicks in so he can fill up his Koi Carp pond.

Sturridge has been playing in the number 10 role for the preseason what you reckon? For the Westham game having mane firmino Salah with sturridge just behind in the 10 role, or do you think lallana would get the nod with keita and fabinho behind him. Now that matip is out I'm worried about the CB position Gomez and klavan available with the former who is unproven and latter to slow probably would play better in a back three.
1.) 25 Jul 2018 16:42:08
How can you play a back three with Mane, Salah, Firmino, Sturridge, Keita and Fabinho playing? Only play one wing back maybe, and nobody on the other side?
2.) 25 Jul 2018 16:43:49
If we don't sign any other Fekir, then I think that could have some legs (geddit? ) .
Once Hendo is back, however, I can definitely see a middle three of Fabinho (No 6), Hendo (No 8) and Keita (No 10) as well.
Would be interested to see Shaqiri in there too.
3.) 25 Jul 2018 17:28:36
There is no way we start with Sturridge, Firmino, Mane and Salah in the same team against West Ham.
4.) 25 Jul 2018 18:01:47
Alisson-Fabinho-Gomez-VanDijk-Robertson-Salah-Wijnaldum-Keita-Mane-Sturridge-Firmino. 4-4-2 for WestHam game.
5.) 25 Jul 2018 19:23:46
Sturridge has been playing a bit deeper than before, but I still think he’s a proper striker and adapting to dropping deeper to get on the ball while also creating space for Mane and Salah to make runs into the box (like Firmino does) rather than someone who’s likely to become a traditional no.10.
{Ed025's Note - a traditional shirker is his forte fore me SG..
6.) 25 Jul 2018 19:50:01
OP, Mane is better in the no. 10 role than Studge is and even he will not be the no. 10 for us if Fekir does not come in. Where Studge fits in eventually? I don't know but him playing the no. 10 role is one I don't see happening. Keita is more suited to that than even Mane is.
Also, What is this obsession with the back 3, exactly? Not all teams can play it effectively if you don't have the right players to play it successfully. CB issues or not, a back 3 exposes a lot of gaps in the wide areas that the midfielders have to cover with CB's who will have to defend one on one in wide areas.
Cos we played it couple of times in the past due to injuries and it worked does NOT mean it is ideal as we do not have the players to play it effectively, IMO. Playing a back 4 allows you to cover more ground on the pitch in terms of width and defend effectively esp. out of possession. It also allows you to be more compact in defensive scenarios out of possession. I don't see Klopp changing that for this season.

Have these people who are talking up Sturridge actually watched him the last 3 years? I go on the games so see what he does off the ball. which is zero, he doesn’t bother breaking into a sprint and his once cool finishing has deserted him. For me he would be better suited going to a slower less physical league, maybe Italy? But he’s on too much of a wedge here and we can’t get shut of him.
8.) 25 Jul 2018 21:27:27
Harsh but not entirely unfair over the last 4 years Ed. I’ve been a firm believer we need to move on from him given he has flattered to deceive ever since 13/ 14 but every now and again I can’t help but think how good it would be if he really came good!
{Ed025's Note - his talent is not in question SG unfortunately his attitude and application are mate, its not as though this is a recent problem either as the same was said when he was at previous clubs..
9.) 26 Jul 2018 10:31:11
Time for Sturridge to move on.

Why don't they go for manolas who st Petersburg were going to buy but he didn't turn up for the medical.
{Ed001's Note - because he has disciplinary issues.}
