Just saw on the bbc gossip page which has the paper back pages on it that klopp is saying Liverpool can’t spend big this summer because they have to pay the bills and is moaning about teams doing it. The lack of self awareness from him is outstanding yet again.

He's just playing the game.

TAA getting ripped a new one today against Napoli. 3 - 0 down.


Next season when we play them, I hope we actually put this kid under pressure as he doesn't like defending. If you let him attack you and whip balls in he's dangerous.

Not had a great pre season, have lost 3 out of 4. Granted a lot of their first teamers are missing but goes to show they don’t have great squad depth. Hopefully this season a few key injuries will expose this weakness.

I’ve said a few times he’s not that good defensively, just luckily for him he doesn’t have to do much of it and he’s got VvD next to him to clean up most of the time.

I think teams will be targeting their flanks big time this season, annoys me that we didn’t in the CL but if I think about that game I’ll start grizzling again.

I can't see them repeating last season. We'll reel them in substantially I reckon. City on the other hand...

I think this is the key with them. Their first 11 is up there with anyone's but they just don't have the depth that City do. Liverpool seemed to have a fairly fortunate time of it last season injury-wise so I do wonder how things would pan out if they had a bit of an injury crisis in one position like we did last year.

One position? During most of last season I'd have bitten your arm off for an injury crisis in just one position!

Theoretically they should get injuries in attack next season. Salah, Mane and Firmino all had summer tournaments. Salah and Firmino for the second successive summer. Plus they haven't had a preseason. They must be knackered or at risk of injury. You'd expect a drop off. Whether they will or not is another matter. Let's hope so!

Plus they haven't signed any replacement forwards saying Sturridge has left. Unless they are in for some players we don't know about or they have been kept quiet. Why they aren't trying to get Zaha, for example, I don't know.

£80m for a player who won't start in their strongest team, I can see why they're staying well away from it.
