Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

[steadyrighteous]

I hate and never watch YouTube skills/goals compilations...

But boy them Nicolas Pepe ones

And the one thing that gives me confidence is the fact that in Auba and Laca we've already got good attackers, so trying to shift your whole defence to one side or against one player just leaves space for the other 2

Either Nico pulls defenders to him or he gets left one on one and he seems to be good in either situation. Whether he had 3 bodies around him, was going one on one from a standing start or out-running someone, he seems to be pretty damn good at all of it.

The entire concept of a British core is so dumb.

What exactly do they think that will do?

I’ll give you the RB. But imagine if United added Maguire with Pepe and the CM that went to Spurs and Bruno.

The moves were out there.

So if they spent 92 million on Pepe you wouldn't come here complaining?

The Sanchez days we were still crap then but he was clutch

Be Spurs of the Norf, but with a larger piggy bank.

The concept of it, is basically because it's United, the Brit players are less likely want to leave to foreign leagues. Also the old Fergie romanticism comes into play.

Theyve tried everything else, talented foreign players outside and within the league and it's been inconsistent.

Premier League is gonna be mad this year. Arsenal making all the right moves

Like with Zaha, Maguire fee is so high because Leicester have to give Hull a high cut like Palace have to do with United.

where are the defenders??

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

Anyone watch that This is Football doc on Amazon? I watched the first 5 mins before I had to leave, looks amazing.

Dani Alves to São Paulo is official. Filipe Luis coming back to Brasil made sense because he’s injury prone, but even at his age Dani is reliable health wise and still plays at a high level. I really thought he’d get one more run at one of the major European clubs.

I wish him nothing but the worst in his future endeavors.

They're saying an English club has put in a bid for Coutinho. Loan plus obligation to buy. Who could it be?

Just when I thought Newcastle purchasing some bum from a mediocre league that he didn't dominate for 40M was the worst transfer of the year, here comes Man U to challenge that thought.

Throwing defending in the bushes, if true.

Youre signing Gucci Saint Maxi Man tho for a good price.

True, but after seeing Kean go to Everton for almost 10M less than a dude that didn't do shyt in Austria or wherever, I still can't get over what a bad purchase Joelinton is at that price for what he's accomplished.

 

[Yayo Toure]

Your players make money, our players make history.

Crazy how the tables have turned. Maguire is a good defender but 80m is crazy. Big ups to Leicester for securing the bag.
