He was a free transfer and I don't recall a load of other clubs fighting to sign him.


Yeah, with how much Man City, Chelsea and Man Utd spent on CB's, I think we got a player much better for free and I am sure those teams could have offered Matip allot more in pay than us, plus European football, that was Klopp and his staff knowing a player that would fit in our team/league.

Spot on.

John Stones for £50million has to be one of the biggest wastes of money in football history.

And I think it's transfers like this that will set him apart from Rodgers before him (or the committee). It also show me that he wants to buy the right players for the team not just the marquee type that most fans were moaning that we weren't getting in the summer.

This of course includes his multiple personalities also.

Be interesting to see how long this lasts.


Sorry but this doesn't sit right with me. Individuals shouldn't be singled out.

People can ignore others and don't need to respond to their contributions.
