Liverpool-gaf, assuming you sell Suarez and sign Sanchez and Lallana, what is your starting lineup?

------------------Mignolet------------------
Johnson - Skrtel ----- Sakho - Alberto
--------------------Gerrard----------------
-------------Hendo-------Lallana---------
--------------------Sterling-----------------
------------Sturridge--Sanchez--------

I'm not sure we'll get Sanchez but I think Suarez is gone. No idea how his £65-80m is reinvested. Maybe a move back to 433. In which case, I could see us getting Markovic and Shaqiri.
We're probably after a CB, we'll probably sign Lovren for over the odds.
Think Johnson will still be our no 1, even though Flanno shows many times more passion and determination.

The Sanchez, Lallana, and Markovic deals basically mean we can have seven or so players that can come into our frontline and offer enough individual quality to win a game of premier league football, as opposed to the 4 we had last season.

(Sterling, Sturridge, Lallana, Coutinho, Lambert, Sanchez, Markovic)

dis

i'd like to think we'd have signed Moreno for LB and another RB and they would be in the first team. I'm also unsure of Gerrard starting, I think he should be an impact sub.

I think Can will rotate with him and play the domestic cups, and we know from last season that Rodgers is happy to bring on Lucas for Gerrard with the sole intention of killing the game (if we are ahead).

 

[Barzul]

How much are we paying Ozil on wages?

I think Gerrard should too, but likelihood is he won't be. He'll probably sit out a few more home matches in the PL though.

Shoot if we're doing lineups. With Sanchez, Debuchy and Scheniderlin.

Szcz, Debuchy, Kos, Merte, Gibbs, Shcneiderlin, Ramsey, Sanchez, Ozil, Theo, Giroud.

That team would wreck shit.

Is Schneiderlin much more than hope at the moment? Reported anywhere notable?

Good team though. Full backs could be improved.

 

[wedward]

Not sure. Seen 130-160.

Love that team except for Debuchy. Fuck he's average....

---------------------------------Mignolet----------------------------------


Assuming we don't have any other transfers. Lallana would want to play where Sterling is, but tough titties, shitbeard.

Defense is still weak as piss, not sure if I'd prefer Flanagan leftback and Johnson rightback. Sanchez in something of a free role, not restrained to staying on the left wing

Some French journalist who people claim is reliable.

Shouldn't be a hard deal to complete. Not even sure if Wenger wants him though. I bet for the price Southampton want Wenger would rather go after someone like Bender or Khedira.

 

[Ostinatto]

+We're likely to go higher than Arsenal in wages
+We had a better league season last year
+Rodgers is young and his palms are made of dreams and silk
+Suarez means Barca would rather sell to us than Arsenal

-Arsenal can match us in wages if they choose
-Wenger is a more prominent manager who players would like to play under
-London is more attractive than Liverpool
-Arsenal have been near the top for much longer than us, and have a much better domestic record in recent history


That about covers it, no? Plenty of legit reasons to choose either of us, if it comes down to it.

He's terrible at learning new languages, so - to both teams.

 

[Meier]

Houston Dynamo joining the Fly Emirates family supposedly.

 

[Barzul]

We would always be hard pressed to get better than Sagna. I'll settle for Debuchy while Jenks and Bellerin mature.

 

[Wilbur]

All the formations I'm in fucking HEAVEN

----------------------Marshall-----------------

Never seen Tadic play, what's the craic on him

(Oh and can everyone stop feeling sorry for 3sixty now, they lose Lallana and they've got a class prospect like JWP stepping in cheers m8s)

 

[Barzul]

Fuck I want an Arsenal kit like that.

He is the Serbian Messi Ronaldo.

Griezmann instead of Sanchez but I am biased.

 

[Perfect Blue]

You're an inter fan too right?

yeeeeeee

 

[Barzul]

Not sure. Seen 130-160.

So he's the highest paid at Arsenal? Heard a few say Ramsey makes more with the new contract.

 

[Scum]

Alexis this. Sanchez that. I really hope he decides to stay.

----------------------Marshall-----------------
Chambers----Fonte----Lovren----Clyne

---------------------Pelle------------------------

Can we Clyne please? You can have Po back in Nov.

 

[wedward]

Griezmann instead of Sanchez but I am biased.

Imagine both.

-------------Sanchez
Greasyman-Ozil-Thierry Walcott
---Schneiderlin Rambo
--Gibbs Kos Per Debuchy

So he's the highest paid at Arsenal? Heard a few say Ramsey makes more with the new contract.

Yeah, think he is the highest. Ramsey is on 130k now. Ozil is probably closer to 160k.

 

[KidA Seven]

yeeeeeee

Yes! The Inter fan base is growing on here. I want more Serie A wars.

You guys should sign Kiyotake. Nurnberg were just relegated and he's a really good player. He will be a steal for anyone.

 

[Lightning]

Not sure. Seen 130-160.

According to GeoffArsenal and Tim Payton Ozil's wage rises closer to 200k with bonuses.

 

[3Sixty]

All in all to replace Lallana & Lambert with Tadic and Pelle i'd be pretty happy.

As for Shaw, Clyne may well fill in at LB until based Matty Target is ready. That LB from Nice that everyone was raving looks like he is off to West Ham which probably says alot about his actual ability.

 

[wedward]

Ah ok. So we should have no problem with Sanchez's wage. Apparently he is on 185k at Barca.

Hmmm.

Our official Japanese twitter has been abit light of news since Yoshida fell out of favour and Tadanari left.

 

[Lightning]

Fuck. He's expensive.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

I think Liverpool's biggest advantage is that Barca won't sell Sanchez until Suarez is confirmed

I think Sanchez would prefer going to team with a more proven track record for CL and domestic titles

 

[The_Hitcher89]

For some reason I'm really excited about seeing what he's like. Haven't even seen his Belgium goal.

Time for UNITED

DDG; Rafael, New CB, Evans, Shaw; Herrera, New CM, Mata; Januzaj, RVP, Rooney

* I think injuries to Evans and Rafael will ensure Jones and Smalling get enough game time, and can see Shaw and Evra sharing the load pretty equally next year.

* Certainly need someone of higher quality alongside Evans (whose distribution will be pretty valuable); would never have pinged Vermaelen as the answer but I'm prepared to trust the mad bastard for now.

* Carrick will have his uses next year, and I'm pretty sure if rested enough he can still play a big part. Mata might play on the wing instead of Januzaj, but could see him being used like Sneijder is at the moment.

* LVG will really like Welbeck, that I'm sure of. A Kuyt like workhorse who is tactically disciplined, but younger and more skilful. Januzaj, Welbeck and Shinji (as well as aforementioned Mata) are all candidates for that role.

 

[wedward]

Fuck. He's expensive.

No clue how accurate that is. Think it was mentioned by Duncan Castles.

Nvm, a quick search shows it's much lower than that.

 

[Timurid]

Looks like Leonardo is coming back to PSG after the World Cup.

Thank fucking God!!! No more silly transfers!!!

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Pfft, chump change for us when Suarez leaves


Liverpool 1-0 Arsenal

Oh, and Marshall? That hasn't been confirmed somewhere and I've missed it?

Really like him, definite step up from Boruc in most areas, even if shot stopping is pretty even.

 

[EmiPrime]

Imagine both.

But I like Giroud.

I don't know enough about Sanchez tbh other than his impressive assists stat and what he did in the WC.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Man Utd should be trying to cash in on Kagawa

2 years of nothing is enough, surely.

 

[Barzul]

Ah ok. So we should have no problem with Sanchez's wage. Apparently he is on 185k at Barca.

No wonder they're looking to shift him. We could easily pay that with Bendtner and Park gone. Fucking wage leeches. Park especially at least Bendtner actually contributed to our season.

It's just a link. But a solid one. Apparently he wants first team football. Cardiff want a lot of monies doe.

Could have a renewed lease of life under a more tactically astute coach though. Would like to see what LVG makes of him first.

 

[Milchmonster]

Weidenfeller, Piszczek, Hummels, Subotic, Durm, Bender, Sahin, Kuba, Micky, Reus, Immobile

CL winners right there

 

[Perfect Blue]

My friend and I started playing Resident Evil 6.

God help us

 

[Wilbur]

It's just a link. But a solid one. Apparently he wants first team football. Cardiff want a lot of monies doe.

He's too good to stay in the Championship, plenty of PL clubs could do with him. I can think of 8-10 clubs he'd improve.

Takes too long to do on my phone baby, I prefer the semi colons

What formation though WIlbury?

Edit: I wonder who LVG rates higher between Evans and Jones?
I don't see Januzaj being a regular yet under LVG. Welbeck you bring up a good point, but if we want someone like Kuyt I would just rather get Kuyt.

 

[Lightning]

Yeah it has to be lower than that. 185k seems really excessive.

Ad for BT on the tv there. Gareth Bale with a ludicrous Alice band.
BT Sports is free with broadband (there was talk that that deal was only for one year). BT Broadband is utter shite though. Utter, utter sewage.
