I was just kidding, of course he's not going to play 10 even if they had that many at City. It's the sort of money you'd pay for a quality winger, but fullbacks tend not to score much, create much, or are as important to the defence as the cbs. That said, City can afford it so why not.
I'd start Gini ahead of him for games vs the top 6 and CL, bring in Lallana for the rest. Gini showed he has that big game mentality last season and scored some important goals. We're lucky really that the way we set up is flexible enough that both will get a decent amount of games anyway. Salah/Bob/Mané looks to be set up top, with Henderson almost guaranteed to start deep, that leaves the remaining 2 midfield spots for Can, Gini, Lallana, Coutinho, Grujic.

35? I thought it was 70 million bid that were doing the rounds.

First pre-season game I've been able to watch. But Salah will be so good in our system.
Decent goal by Leicester.
Double error there, Milner shouldn't get beaten there and I don't think Gini tracked Albrighton's run.
I'd like to think the squad is deep and varied enough now to cope with one or two absentees.
That's so cheap for Sanchez.

Salah faster than Mane???

I can't say I've seen any laziness from Mane in a Liverpool shirt. Never stops running and is always willing to track back. Probably one of the quickest players I've seen too and Salah possibly is even quicker.
There really is an opinion on everything.

Hmmm, this Bats guy doesn't seem so bad.
Then again, it's only Arsenal.

I like Mane and think he is a brilliant player, but when he can't be assed he shows it. 😂

He's still salty about Mane leaving them so he'll slag any ex Southampton player at Liverpool.
You have issues man, seriously need to get a grip or some shit. You also need to read my post a few pages back , where I said I care about players going.
Beefy's right. Lots were saying this when we bought him last summer, that he has hot and cold phases. Like when he scored that double against us in the 3-2 he was in one of these poor spells then went on to score like 6 goals in 6 games at the end of the season. Then we bought him.
He hasn't shown that sort of form for us though, he's been our most dangerous player throughout the season and our drop off in Jan coincided with him leaving for the AFCON.
This is a good point, he has seemed more consistent for us than he did at Southampton.
EDIT:
Matip isn't have having a shite game for us :lol
Yep, when he is on his game the dude is crazy good. When we bought him he went on strike as he wanted to leave join us. I just hope for Liverpool fans sake that Klopp keeps Mane's head on right.
Because he is hungry, you need Klopp to keep his head straight. If you can, then you will have a dope player on your hands. I think he may out grow you though.
Edit:
Milner injured
That's why we're buying his best bud Keita.
Goal! Coutinho is not bad at this football thing.

Oh Phil...
Great goal,.
This could be Mahrez's last game for Leicester
---------------------
By the way on Van Dijk, Southampton's board and Manager have told him to sort his head out as we won't be bullied into selling him. So that's see how shit happens. Also rumours Chelsea are sniffing around more then Liverpool atm.

Totally agree. We saw it during the final games last season. He's brilliant in midfield, don't have the assets to play on the left wing.
Birmingham are managed by Redknapp and they want Ashley Cole.
Also, they have 38 year old Paul Robinson, so it looks like the next derby is going to be sponsored by Saga.

"This year is our year" - Liverpool fans every year since 1992First the Premier League Asia trophy... next the real thing
Goal of the season award 2016/17. The fair play award 2016/17. Best club (or some shit like that?) 2016/17, and now this. What a time to be alive lads.
That meme belongs to Arsenal fans rather than Liverpool fans tbh.

It was said with a big touch of sarcasm don't worry! But sure, when you go into a season why shouldn't you be optimistic? How fun is it to be all doom and gloom before a ball has even been kicked. Liverpool since 1992 has always been a big club and you never know maybe one season we should've won it, but I always go into a season thinking we're in with a chance... sure that faith might be dashed within the first month of the season! Rival fans can say it as much as they want, it doesn't bother me. But taking the piss of fans for being optimistic is pretty shit I have to say!
You forgot Best New Stand 2016/17 too.

Not a new thing so I don't really care. Type "this year is our year" in google and see what pops up.
How so?
