good riddance - 49mill pounds and 200k pounds per week - wowee.

odds of flushing the funds from the sale down the toilet? pretty high  :banghead


Ins so far:
James milner(mid)(free) - big tick
Firmino(att mid)(29mill) - looks the goods but always a question mark on whether some south American players can handle the hustle of the EPL
Clyne(right back)(12.5 mill) - big tick quality right back
Ings(fwd)(free, small comp fee) - good signing adds quality to the squad upgrade on Lambert/Borini and Ballotelli
Origi(fwd)(loan return) - Reckon this kid will light it up, had an average year in France but has some real skill and pace
Gomez(def)(3.5mill) - wont play much yet, 18, one for the future
Bogdan(GK)(free) - meh backup keeper

Outs:
Stirling(49mill) - Big talent no doubt but we made out like bandits on this one  :cheers
Aspas(3.6mill) - fwd that was a silly buy
Glen Johnson - released free
Brad Jones - released free
Steve Gerard - free LA Galaxy

Hopefully lambert, Ballotelli, Borini and Allen to follow suit.

Would expect Firmino, Clyne and Milner to be starters with Origi and Ings getting plenty of opportunities early with Sturridge sicknote injured again.

Would hope we can land a real quality striker like Lacazette or Higuain and a defensive mid like Illarramendi before the season starts to round off the squad nicely.

Liverpool really need to finally stop undervaluing the importance of having a good, reliable keeper....haven't really had one since Clemence....

Spectacular? Enigmatic? A clown? Yes.  Reliable? No.

As much as Reus has been one of my favourite BVB players, he's always injured and if Klaasen is his replacement then I'll take that and run. We could do with getting some more young players in, been holding on to the old guard too long and have been over taken by Schalke and Wolfsburg.

I love Reus and was bummed when I read that Liverpool were talking about offering £50milion but then I thought we won't really miss him as he's constantly injured. Just read before that Arsenal may try to beat Liverpool's offer with £200 million  :gobdrop we could do heaps with that sort of money. We already have considerable extra money to play with after having such a poor start to the last season and ended up missing champions league, meaning a lot of clauses weren't activisted in contracts.

We should cause havoc in the Euro league. The squad is too strong. Too easy to run off quality names like Hummels, Subotic, Bender, Durm, Großkreutz, Aubameyang, Gündogan, Mkhitaryan, Schmelzer,  Blaszczykowski, and now Bürki and hopefully Klaasen, we would be playing champs league if it wasn't for the horrid start to the season.
