Looks like that's it no one else in no one else out I'm not convinced about the back 4 but I honestly think pipco will come round and be as good as ever. (remember the season Suarez had the yr after Barcelona came calling) AL fit again. and an injury free studge. any worries about the back 4. if they score 3. we'll score 4.! Come on u redsðŸ‘ðŸ‘.

Suarez and coutinho are two completely different people. With saurez, you have someone who is very competitive and was bought up playing his absolute best. You can see that he hates losing. Questions marks from coutinho tho and hopefully the world cup later this season will prompt him to perform for us.

Agree with you completely, whether pipco stays or not, whether we get a new centre back or not, our plan will still be to score more than the opposition, worked for bill shankly.
{Ed025's Note - failed for kevin keegan..

Ha ha, Kevin Keegan. Nice to see an ed with a sense of humour in these trying times. I could of course go into a long winded diatribe about David moyes here, but I don't think that will be necessary 😜.

Listen I know this is going to be unpopular but in all honesty the game has changed and what has just unfolded with neymar DOES change things bear in mind the transfer fee record has been smashed. now we have a player who is wanted by Barcelona . ok. so we also have him locked into a 5 yr contract with no minimum release fee so some reds were saying before the neymar deal that if Barcelona come in with £85/ 90 mill . you can't stand in his
way so now if they come in with £150+ mill would it not make sense to cash in and let klopp decide how and where to strenghthen the squad bearing in mind we're playing in both the PL and the CL this year we've lost talisman over the years and still carried on rush, Owen, Torres, Suarez, even stevie G, this is LFC. no one is bigger than this club. surely?

It's not a matter of what he's worth in the current market. It is simply a matter of what he is worth to Liverpool. And for me, he's worth just as Much as Neymar was to Barcelona. I agree with most of the complainers on here about how he goes missing sometimes. But guess what? EVERY PLAYER DOES. He's a magician and one of our best players. It's important that we keep him.
2.) 10 Aug 2017 04:30:27
it wouldn't make sense what so ever! As this transfer window has proved we can not replace him and it isn't even about money.
lost Torres in Jan 2011 we finished 6th then season after finished 8th
Finished 2nd with Suarez - season after 6th
We need to keep our best players and build a team around them, otherwise we will just be stuck in the cycle we are now, scraping 4th then the season after finishing 6th.

Why would you care if we got 150m? Makes no difference to fans unless it means we perform better on the pitch.
The big question for me is whether we have a better chance of success and trophies with Phil Coutinho or with his replacement (sas) . If i was in charge, i would politely refuse Barcas offer and then go win the league and Ol Big ears in Coutinhos fnal season.
4.) 10 Aug 2017 09:53:10
OP, you are missing the point. I don't care about the fee we will get for him. You have to look at the pitch and ask yourself if we will suffer w/ o him on the pitch and the answer an emphatic Heck YEAH. He is worth way more to us than any fee Barcelona would pay for him. Why? His influence is immense and this preseason has shown that already with his goals and assists to Salah which is why we signed Salah to begin with. With no replacement out there capable of doing what he can do for us, we will be shooting ourselves in both feet by letting him go. That is the reality and Klopp knows that all too well as he has seen it himself at BVB when Bayern would take his players.
09 Aug 2017 23:49:55
I think now is the right time to cash in on couts he is r jewel in the crown but he's only good for 3/ 4 of a season he's prone to a knock or two . my only concern is replacing him a week before the season. and if we get neymar money everybody's price will go up and klopps nobody's fool but I'm afraid he'll take a stand to show that he'll only do business at the right price and that could cost us!
1.) 10 Aug 2017 00:13:17
Since when is Couts prone to a knock or two? Have you seen how he gets targeted and kicked but seems to be able to push on, much the same way Suarez did?
If we sell, how can we expect to attract top players if they think the other top players in the team might be sold?
I know when Barcelona and Real come knocking there tends to be only one outcome, but IF the club take a stand, even if it's just for 1 more season, it sends a decent message.
I grew up in our hey day of the 70's and then the magical 80's, so I know the feeling of seeing us win the league. Many on here don't know that feeling. Trust me, if holding on to our best players increases our chances of the title, you won't care about the money we missed out on.
2.) 10 Aug 2017 00:40:24
The money we miss out on is SO MUCH outweighed by the perils of losing our best player. For some reason, some football fans are conditioned to believe that any large transfer receipt is automatically good business and a good outcome. Yeah okay, maybe if you're Brighton FC, but not Liverpool. We don't need that money to progress, we need our best players.
3.) 10 Aug 2017 01:18:41
Look I understand about the perils about losing our best players but we're no talking about stevie g here or Suarez
Couthino is tied into a 5 yr contract with no release fee so we hold all the cards now I'm not saying we have to sell. we don't. but here's a thing a lot of reds we're openly saying recently if Barcelona come in for £85/ 90 million you have to let him go. but now after the neymar situation why not push for double that surely that's good business receiving 35% above a players market value. giving klopp free reign to strengthen the squad were he sees fit for a season involving both PL and CL you can't build a team around one man these days spurs have coped without bale and united have sold the likes of Ronaldo and beckham . after losing stevie g we have still made progress so let's not get carried away by thinking the departure of couthino will make the wheels fall off . jurgens a very shrewd man !

So who would you buy with 90m, Readingred, considering the transfer window is over soonish?
5.) 10 Aug 2017 12:11:45
To be honest I think harry Wilson should be utilised a lot more he has been one of our most exciting and consistent u23's. the way the market is no one is valued correctly everyone is inflated . however oxlade chamberlain is someone who is of the right pedigree to fit the bill . providing we can successfully cut a deal.
