Nope, read better pls.

Dont write off Ox so quickly. He has pace and power, looks the type with physical qualities Klopp can develop. Coutinho was pretty average stats wise for a long time too. More worrying though is Ox's injury record.

Coutinho doesnt seem the sort to hand in a transfer request or go to war, as Stevie said?

Anyone keen on Tadic?

No way VVD gets done at 70m. Prolly the club was willing to pay 45.

I don't get it, why are we still seeing reports of players agreeing to move to a club or personal terms when agreement with the player's club has not been obtained? Is it cos the club has not been reported by the player's club? Is it alright to approach player if the club had made a formal bid? Is it cos English FA regards the press as crap (which they mostly are)? Are we just worried cos of the existing 2 year ban? Are we just chicken? Are we just happy to pull the plug? What?

Some heads must roll surely after such a massive f***-up - starting with Michael Edwards.

I don't understand some journos saying we could still rekindle our interest in vvd somehow if he submits transfer request post-shambles.

It's all been rather buried under the vvd debacle and rightly so but how the f*** too did we so quickly screw up the Salah situation and 'bid' for an hitherto unknown player who may cost even more? Long long summer ahead.

Height in defence and pace in attack, will be over the moon.

Hope Milner gives some crossing lessons to Moreno and Clyne. You don't have to fizz the ball at 100mph.

Don't think though Klopp is the pragmatic sort. He will try to win the next game and pick the best team to do it (in the Bournemouth sense) rather than 'protect' players for the 'most important' games. His football has always been high risk (and I think he's right).

Question if we Klopp it: can our squad press? I know it's not all about pace but many of our midfielders are one pace (think Lallana). Hendo does it well cos he is relentless and has the stamina. Ings will be great, not sure about Origi. Cou is good at stealing the ball. Moreno with that recovery lunge as big as his body. Ibe seems to be half confused in his defensive work.

Guys, did Aquilani play against Kaiserslauten? If not, why?

thank you rafa for bringing us hope and dreams, as great managers and players do.
