Top 4 strike force

Chelsea Costa,Remy,
MAN CITY Aguero,Dzeko, Jovetic
Arsenal Giroud,Walcott,Sanchez,Podolski,Akpom,
Man Under Rooney,Van Judas ,Chicarito.

Now I've just gone with players that are now on the club's books never mind any who might be released. But they will be replaced by equivalent or better players as that's what you do to improve.

Ings may be a success but really to go from

Suarez,Sturridge Sterling,Borini

To

Ings,half a Sturridge and Borini.

If Brenda persuaded the transfer committee that the way to get better than what's infront of you is to buy what's behind you then those David Brent speeches of his must have an hypnotic effect.
 
Can't stand Spurs but just to show fsg and Brenda as frauds,I wish they'd replace Soldudo with a serious striker.
 
Ings is a sensible, good signing for them. The cult won't realise that though as it isn't a foreigner with a boss name.

Adds squad depth and he's capable of netting double figures. They obviously still need someone else, but they really shouldn't be crying about this one.
 

so far they are signing proper players for once, so rodgers isnt doing that then haha

Id have easily had milner and ings at everton so can't critisise them.

Next will clearly be kovacic from inter milan and then after that, who knows? It is just a good job they are signing good players under an average coach eh? :)
 
I remember transfer windows when they were spending £50 million+ with ease.

It's great to see the condition they are in now signing average players on frees or out of contract.

I have never seen them in a worst state than they are now in my 30+ years watching the game.

It really should be enjoyed.

Ha Ha. Indeed. 'The Liverpool family' he always describes it as too.

I'm speechless at what he's done...mind you, I'm just as shocked at how an Echo reporter has, in more than one word, nailed Rodgers as a coward....or maybe he's taking his cue from the owners rather than the playing side of the club now?

It's staggering how Rodgers could have accepted those terms. How could he have thought it would be acceptable? As I said earlier: it's one thing being a bit of a joke who's out of his depth - that's forgiveable. This stuff isn't though.

I was considering this more at the weekend. What was sold as "Rodgers has been backed" by the owners originally now looks very different to what their motives were.

A backroom staff is absolutely essential. Managing is a hard job, and a loyal and trustworthy backroom team is the minimum anyone needs to succeed in the job. It looks to me, that they were trying to push him out by making his position untenable as opposed to backing him.

For Liverpool it's the worst possible result. Their fanbase and the club needed a coherent way forward this summer as a minimum. Either moving Rodgers on, or a firm backing of him. At present you have got neither of those things. Those who want Rodgers in are going to call for fans to get behind the team for the new season, those who want him out will be emboldened and continue with their pressure into the new season.

They want to sign top players, but who in their right mind would go their now? How much control is Rodgers going to have over Sterling, or Skirtl when they know he could be gone in 6 months?

I said he has done a Moyes, in many ways it is even worse than Moyes. To his credit when Moyes went to United he took his backroom team with him. They all culpably failed but at least he didn't put himself before them. Likewise when he was sacked he didn't try and offer up Neville, or Round instead of himself.

Rodgers is too thick and too arrogant to see the writing on the wall. By making him sack his backroom staff they probably thought if they made him sack his best mate he'd never do it and have to resign. They used a similar strategy for Dalglish who at least had the dignity to walk.

If he'd had walked this summer he could have got another PL job. I think now clubs are going to be reluctant to take him on, and staff will not want to work with him, as they know he will throw them under the bridge to save himself. His lack of authority will be Hodgson like and if they don't start well they are in big trouble.
 

Milners OK but for 150k week not to sure, plus hes not a holding midfielder like england played him and how brenda probably will.

And ings is wank, decent finsher if given enough chances but massively overhyped because hes british
