    CL Round: Newcastle - Barca 1-2

    This! Look at how many have written essays here without having watched a Newcastle game ever. From someone watching heavily EPL, I can tell you: they are a mismatch for us. That and the Chelsea away game are going to be a mare for us... They will have clear and big chances from both fast breaks...

    Window is also defined by those managed to the sold (and at what prices). Liverpool's great SD is also down to great sells over the years at the right prices. This window they did it with Nunez, Diaz, Elliot, Quansah, and Kelleher, but it is something they have been doing a lot over they years...

    Liverpool

    OK, I edited, including only the 7 you mention. Still 3/7, with the obvious caveat that Suarez was the biggest transfer: a rare combination of maybe the best striker ever during his prime with a player set his heart to play for Barca (hence no competition for his signing) I can rate their...

    Liverpool

    Our 22/23: 2 successful signings (Raphina, Christensen) all considered (age, wage, level on the pitch). - Lewa: we are still NOT in 1:1 because of the wage an idiot pretending to be the president gave to this done granny. FAILED - Kounde: below par as starting RB, on huge wages given the...

    Liverpool

    Let's take those 7. Who was a success of them? Suarez, Rakitic, and MATS (take that with a grain of salt). 3/7 Bravo was a short-term plug-hole solution for 2 seasons, which can hardly be qualified as a success. The rest were trash in different ways: either below par (Matheu), done at top...

    Liverpool

    They only won last EPL because Arsenal and City collapsed under their own struggles. It was definetely not predicted by the Liverpool hierarchy. That's why they still revamped their squad heavily. Because they knew they had to do it in order to dominate in the years to come

    Liverpool

    1) It's not 400m, its around 214m in net spent, and after 3 windows of spending close to zero 2) Yes, it's true of every signing that you can't predict the future. After 2-4 years we can say whether each one of them has succeeded/failed. We are now discussing something different: to judge a...

    Liverpool

    Oh yes, it needs a really clever scouting department to identify as a target prime Suarez, probably the best striker ever during his prime, and a player who had always his heart set to play for Barca. Rakitic was good. Bravo was meh, only 1 good season. Both easy signings from LL. And after...

    CL Round: Newcastle - Barca 1-2

    Needless to say that Araujo needs to start this game. We are gonna concede a lot from headers alone with Cubarsi being the tallest

    LMAOL :lol: The idiot strikes again. Yes dude, a transfer window with 8 failed transfers is for sure a transfer window to remember.

    CL Round: Newcastle - Barca 1-2

    No problem for them if they don't get the ball. That's their style of play. Slot confessed after his lost final against Newcastle that he prepared a good press, but Howe outsmarted him because there was nothing to press... For me, it's the most difficult game of the league phase (together with...

    Liverpool

    The best from any team in recent times, from what I can remember. We have to go back to Madrid 2009 to find a better one Seems Edwards and Hughes did not take lightly the overhaul needed. Let's see how it plays out

    CL Round: Newcastle - Barca 1-2

    Not optimistic for this one. We have been having a slow start, nothing like last season around the same time, and Newcastle's way of playing is a mare to us. They can frustrate the hell out of you, they have minimal possession, but play fast breaks and press intensely. Not only they won a...

    Dembele wins it and we all know it... CL, World Cup, and Euro weigh heavily. Domestic leagues not that much That's how this award works, and has been working for years.
