Really good performance today. Particularly impressed by Oxlade-Chamberlain and Robertson.
Especially Robertson. I think Ox struggled in the centre because he is more energy than skill, and in the centre he doesn't have enough space and struggles with decision making. Coutinho was great, one super goal and one assist.
I dont know what Ox did to you make you hate him.
This is a very good performance of him in everyone eye and he was even voted as the MOM in some football critics website but you said he was struggled.
I said he struggled in the centre at the beginning of the game but played well after that. I don't hate him but think he was an unnecessary purchase. Do you know he cost about the same as Salah? In fact I wouldn't even have talked about him if you hadn't said that we didn't buy a CB because Klopp didn't have the funds. It's only then that I said we needed a CB more than an attacking midfielder.
Everyone knows that Salah is a very smart and bargain buy last summer. Every transfer comparing with Salah is stupid.
Lukaku EUR84.70M vs Salah EUR42.0M
Davinson Sanchez EUR 40.00M vs Salah EUR42.0M
Lacazette EUR53.0M vs Salah EUR42.0M
Aurier/ Zappacosta EUR25.0M vs Salah EUR42.0M
Morata EUR62M vs Salah EUR42.0M
Even the transfer of Neymer looked stupid when you compared with Salah. It is like the biggest steal from us since Sturridge and Coutinho.
Btw, we paid EUR38.0 upfront for Ox. Therefore, he is still cheaper. And last summer is a crazy market. Show you some examples of what we may get or may not get with similar money:-
Sigurdsson EUR49.9M
Michael Keane EUR28.5M
