Ramiro Funes Mori

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

I'd be passionate about Liverpool FC if they paid me 50 grand a week to sit on the bench, to be honest.

Harsh mate

I love Mori

 

[Shibbywiggles]

I love Mori too he's a hard worker, great in the air and with the right coaching could be a very solid defender too. He's not in the same class as Williams or Jagielka defensively though but then, honestly, not many players in the world are.

Mori will gift the opposition at least one great chance every game he plays.

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

Yeah if he wants to leave then fine. If he is happy to stay then brilliant as there are plenty worse back up defenders than him around. We will need him at some point this season.

Exactly

He's a first choice Argentinian central defender who gets amongst the goals. We cant be putting up with wasting time developing a useless player like that. Get rid and get Robert Huth in.

Jags has withdrawn from the England squad with a thigh injury

step forth Funes Mori.

But will be fit for City.

He's made 16 appearances for Argentina exactly half that of Swansea City's Federico Fernández. What I'm saying is being an Argentinan CB doesn't have the same reputation as some of other top nations do, nor does it mean you're a top PL player.

 

[Khalekan]

Would like things to turn out for him but we're in the position now that if players like him want to leave, and they can be adequately replaced, then so be it.

After the shambles that was the summer transfer window I wouldn't hold my breath waiting on any of our players being "adequately replaced"

 

[Zatara]

I like a lot about him

I like how he plays for the badge, is passionate, can bag a goal and will sometimes thump it into Row AA if needs be

I don't dislike him and I'll back him whenever he puts on that shirt, but maybe we should be exploiting the fact Koeman managed Southampton and get the player in we could have got if we'd just stumped up an extra 3 million?

That's all I'm saying. I'm sure there's clubs in Italy who would happily snatch up Funes Mori, and then we could get ourselves an upgrade, and right an historical wrong to boot

How much would he cost now though £30-40mil?

Should have signed him from celtic + dembele from fulham (as i posted 729 times).

I've never seen him play, but I can assure you that if you have 32 caps for Argentina and also win a Copa Libertadores (as he has) he is going to be vastly superior to the church mouse currently ducking under crosses at the heart of our defence.

I reckon Funes Mori would be in the top 5 best defenders in Serie A and La Liga.

But probably not even top 15-20 in the premier league.

Different game innit mate.

Bollocks. He wouldn't even be in the top 5 at Juve never mind Serie A.
