Yea he wants to stay in Croatia. Still we shouldve had someone else on the radar as well instead of putting all our eggs in 1 basket on something thats completely out of our hands. I thought he wouldve been a v good player for us.

what was the price being touted for coric?

I know our whole squad/team is meant to be developing, but if we'd of signed ante we'd have 2 players who are definite development players, both midfielders in grujic and coric, is that ideal or bizarre?

Its better to get them developed to what klopp wants rather than trying to mold players like Lallana and Henderson into players that they are never gonna be in the positions they are playing in. I think its unfortunate we didnt get him but we shouldve had someones else in mind as well. Always seem to zoom in on one specific transfer target at a time at Liverpool , when we should be in discussions with 3/4 at a time. It ends up like the Konoplyanka transfer stunt all over again.

yeah I see that thinking, we don't have many permanent fixtures in our side who they can slot in besides though so it's tough. interesting grujic hasn't picked up a PL start yet.

I don't know about multiple targets, we don't always get our first choice target but I rather we not take unprecedented risks, as we might end up over paying.

Ive been screaming for Grujic and Can in a midfield duo. Henderson and Wij just doesnt work, neither of them can play them positions they are set out.

We should have a solid 1st 11 in most positions with young players like Grujic and other young players we may buy playing in games against teams we are expected to beat.

Im very surprised the lack of width at Liverpool. All our players seem to cut inside. The only one Ive seen different from is Mane who can do both. I know theres only 2 games hes played in but he has mixed it up in both games Ive watched. This is an area we need to strengthen in.

Luis Alberto gone for 6 million to lazio. He will do well there. Net profit increased for this transfer window again, while theres no sign of a new LB been recruited. This is getting a bit annoying now.

Phew. Net spend hasn't been mentioned for about 8minutes.

It's important that we release all unwanted players for free so as to decrease net spend.
We only spent 7mil on him so we shouldn't expect to get any money for him as we have made too much money this year.

He won't be missed though, we are getting rid of the rubbish that has built up in the squad, good business if we get £6million for him!

Boj I didnt mean it like that. Im not having a dig. Im just saying it is worrying we havent bought a few more players. Especially at LB. When we continue to leak goals from LB its not gonna look good with a profit from a transfer window and we're dropping points because we didnt sign anyone. It wont be a sole reason but a major one.

Mate I'm with you on the left back thing. We need one. We need one more than G needs a dictionary.

Just fed up of net spend being brought into every thread. Doesn't matter how much we've made. We've spent enough to improve the side and got rid of players who aren't needed.

Also. I've no idea which left back would come to us or which ones we are interested in.
Really odd to have no one of any pedigree linked. Rodriguez and willems are the only ones I can think of.
