Well they had to have a bit of a clear-out to make room, there is such a thing as too much quality ye know?Didnt one of the worlds top players leave them a few weeks back? Or have I missed something?
Apparently he's rubbish though. Big Lambo fills that vacuum. Yet another coup for a club playing the type of football that's attracting Europe's best players.Didnt one of the worlds top players leave them a few weeks back? Or have I missed something?
Apparently he's rubbish though. Big Lambo fills that vacuum. Yet another coup for a club playing the type of football that's attracting Europe's best players.
I see the back page of the Echo has Brent claiming his brilliant style of football has the world's best players clambering to play for them.
Something about the top players watching them last year "and wanting to be a part of what they are doing here".
There's only one fatal flaw with Brent's theory here...
Do you think that the journalists manage to keep a straight face when he comes out with tosh like that?Rodgers is seriously unhinged.
“That ability to attract top players is great,” Rodgers said. “It’s a huge indication of the progress of the club – a really good symbol of where club is at. We have made huge strides in the last couple of years.
“If you’re a football player in Europe watching how we played last season and saw our supporters, your reaction would be that you’d want to play in that environment.
“It’s the most competitive league in the world and this is one of the biggest clubs in the world.
“It’s a team that plays exciting football. I’m happy with the players we have got in, and we’ll be set up for an exciting season.”
Prior to Moreno, Liverpool had already spent around £90million on deals for Rickie Lambert, Emre Can, Adam Lallana, Lazar Markovic, Dejan Lovren, Divock Origi and Javier Manquillo.
Winger Markovic, a £20million new arrival from Benfica, and defender Lovren, who cost the same amount from Southampton, have been two of Liverpool’s most expensive and high-profile summer buys.
Rodgers says both were inundated with offers from across Europe but only had eyes for Anfield.
“Lovren was a guy sought after by a number of clubs but for him to say he only wanted to come to Liverpool was great,” Rodgers added.
“Young Markovic had two or three other clubs there waiting to take him, clubs where he had mates from his international team, but he wanted to come to Liverpool.
“These guys watch football throughout Europe. They watch us and want to be part of what we’re doing. It’s the growth. It hasn’t just happened by accident. A lot of work and time has gone in both on and off the field. The most important thing is to have an identity. There is real excitement around the club.”
Real, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Man City, Monaco etc. all the big spenders and/or clubs that players 'dream of playing for' were clamouring to sign Southamptons finest, lump it to Lambo, Lallana and Lovrens. I noticed LFC were in a bidding war with all of Europe's top teams for Origi, Markovic, Can and Manquillo.
Only in the delusional head of Rodgers, and agents hyping their players, are these 'top players'. Top players like Sanchez snubbed the RS.
Before that beetroot factory stepped in again.TBF, Lambert was always their number 1 target and they needed to free up some money quick to get him before someone like Barca stepped in.........
Moreno - another European chuffed to bits and chomping at the bit to join the Rodgers Liverpool revolution:
“I am living a strange situation because I’m leaving the club of my life. I was always aware of the two teams (trying) to agree. I never got into that but Sevilla have understood that Liverpool’s offer was good and I am going. I have many feelings together. What happened on the pitch, with the fans, will remain forever etched on me and I could not help but mourn because I did not expect it. First came the parting with colleagues, then with the fans... all very complicated.”
Lambert to score against us in the Derby. Nailed on
