Closer to £300m, actually. https://x.com/jacobsben/status/1697754149331296377?s=61&t=8R_nhPv-4hrCKtJ4m1Ri1Q

It’s what I’m most curious about. How and where will Poch use him? I think Sterling was used more on the left at City so I can see him sliding over there with Palmer on the left. I can also see him playing more centrally where Gallagher has been playing. Palmer can apparently play any of the...

Extremely low, tbf! :lol:

Feels like a VERY weird signing for Liverpool considering the type of player they’re crying out for. The only DM in their squad will be that 30 year old dude Endo. Isn’t Gravenberch a pure #8, box to box midfielder? Which they have numerous of but only one #6 who is brand new to the league.

This is a deal that makes sense in the immediate short term with Nkunku’s months long injury but I feel like there’s going to be an odd man out once we have everyone fit. Mudryk and I assume Palmer for the left side. Sterling and Madueke for the right side. Nkunku, Carney, and Gallagher for the...

The few really top performances we’ve gotten out of Cucu have been defensive ones. His attacking play has been literally nonexistent since we bought him. On the occasions when we are forced to defend deep and He has all the play in front of him he’s a very solid defender. His problems come on...

He is NOT a shit player and when fully focused he’s fine. But when he makes mistakes they’ve been terrible howlers. That’s been his issue here. Focus and concentration. He’ll be fine for you guys.

Cross-posting from the other thread: The biggest reasons behind his abysmal form since he came here are his defensive positioning and his decision making. Both have been utterly horrific. He gets caught out of position so many times and allows wingers to fly past him and free on goal. The...

You’re shite too so he should fit right in!

Quite a few of us Chelsea fans on this forum tried to explain how weird it was that you were buying him for big money to play in a position that he never played for us. Really, of the midfielders we moved on this summer it’s actually Kova that would’ve made more sense for you guys next to...

Pep’s successor at City. Be interested to see how they get on against top teams with a midfield pairing of Groß and Gilmour, though. That looks really small and lightweight against the better sides.

No path to get into the team. Quite simple, really. We’ve got 3 LB’s currently (one of which is just 21 and was perhaps Burnley’s best player during their dominant Championship run last season) and we’re completely stacked in midfield which is Hall’s preferred position reportedly.

Not better transfers, better VALUE. As in they’re smarter long term buys is what I think he’s saying.

Doesn’t muscle weigh more than fat? Luke Shaw is fat whereas Reece is jacked. So it wouldn’t be surprising if James was heavier.
