Sooner or later they have to sign somebody to improve the defense. The only major signing Klopp's made to improve the back 4 is Clyne, who had 1 great season and been mediocre or injury-riddled since. Matip was free. TAA has been good, but he's 19. And to his credit Moreno's actually been earning his check this season. They have to finally commit some monies to get a real CB to pair with Matip.

Y'all bought Lovren and Klavan. But the problem is Klopp is indecisive about when to move on from players. He benched moreno for most of last season, now all of a sudden he's ok again? He did the same with Mignolet.

Pep had 1 season, saw which players couldn't hang (shyt he didn't even wait to move into his new place in Manchester before he knew Joe Hart wouldn't work out) and he cut alot of players and brought new ones in. Klopp should've done the same.

Rodgers bought Lovren. Klavan is 32 and we paid 5 million euros to sign and he plays like it. Klopp started playing Migs again because Karius fukked up his opportunity.

VVD to Liverpool is being reported by the Telegraph so it may be legit. That's a relief.

Yeah it's legit. Idk doesn't really change things tho. Y'all are the only club that don't play with a midfielder who covers the back 4.

But we shall see. 75m is crazy tho

Arsenal don't play with a holding mid either, or least a real one. Which would explain why both teams give up dumb goals all the time. Both clubs would tell you their holding mid is Hendo/Ramsey, which is BS because neither player are fit to be CDMs.

If they gotta pay 75 million so that Lovren never sees the field they got a bargain.

Liverpool messed up letting Wanyama go to Spurs.

Isn't EPL supposed to be the most competitive league? :laff:
I keep on saying the league is competitive because your top teams are not good enough, reason smaller teams can cause upsets. Now an actually good team has arrived and is bodying everyone :dead:
What club do you support?
