good player but not good enough for the level we want to reach
Yikes. Jorginho, Keita, Lemar would be a pretty tasty summer for your lot.Our top summer target apparently.
Although ours are constantly changing , see Brandt Texiera etc
Who is on that level then? Don't tell me Thiago, Kroos, Verratti, Modric please.good player but not good enough for the level we want to reach
What level is that? Jedi Master?good player but not good enough for the level we want to reach
from Jorginho to a jedi master, there are different types of good and better players.What level is that? Jedi Master?
money is not a problem I guess and thanWho is on that level then? Don't tell me Thiago, Kroos, Verratti, Modric please.
He is a top player playing for one of the most attractive clubs right nowgood player but not good enough for the level we want to reach
He most certainly is good enough to start and help us get to the next levelgood player but not good enough for the level we want to reach
Is he not better than Periera/Fellaini/Carrick/Mctominey?good player but not good enough for the level we want to reach

Naby Keita & Jorginho at Liverpool. :O
I hope Utd don't let that happen. Jorginho would be fantastic. We should go for him.
.....BTW I had no idea who that "Dutch Legend" was.
Decent enough Dutch wide forward from the 90s. Never a 'legend' and I've no idea why anyone would give a feck about his opinion on United and Mourinho.Not that I disagree with him, but who is Bryan Roy?
Rumours are our summer targets are a GK (Alisson), #6 (Jorginho), a CB and a young Coutinho replacement like Lemar, Pulisic, Brandt etc. to rotate in with our current front 3 without a drop in quality. That would improve us massively especially with Keita also coming in.They could do with Jorginho. Keita being the box to box, while Jorginho sets the pace behind him. Their attack is sorted, their midfield would be sorted. If they buy a GK (which they probably will) and strengthen their defense, they will be much improved next season
I hope it doesnt happen, but it will i feel. Hope we are in it too

To be honest I'm a little bored with this season with how dominant City have been. I don't see us winning the UCL, I think we can beat City and probably Bayern if we drew them but I don't think we can beat either of Madrid or Barcelona as we still have a couple of defensive weak links and I just don't see us being able to contain their attack. I personally cant wait to see what Klopp has in store for us in the summer and from what it looks like right now, it's exactly what we need.
No chance you can afford all of those players at once. Would be £200m+ easilyRumours are our summer targets are a GK (Alisson), #6 (Jorginho), a CB and a young Coutinho replacement like Lemar, Pulisic, Brandt etc. to rotate in with our current front 3 without a drop in quality.

dunno - they have a net profit in the transfer market for the last 3 seasons overallNo chance you can afford all of those players at once. Would be £200m+ easily
Money isn't really an issue for us at the moment. It's been made pretty clear by Klopp he has access to all the Coutinho money (ie £142m) and he's said that he's more than happy to splash the cash for the right players this summer. Plus you have to take into account player sales and we have quite a few still that need to go: Sturridge, Origi, Markovic, Flanagan, Mignolet alongside some fringe youth players and probably one of Matip/Lovren if we do sign a CB which would likely raise another £50m or so.No chance you can afford all of those players at once.

What about Matic? Do you want to play with 4 midfielders?Liverpool getting Naby & Jorginho would provide them with depth and quality in midfield. They could pose a real title challenge to City next season. Mourinho really needs to get the current players playing well and bring in some new players to boost our midfield specifically. I hope we get Jorginho and another 8.... Naby Keita would have complemented Pogba with his dynamism. SMS & Jorginho would be ideal. We need two midfielders for sure because I don't see McTominay being part of the first 11.
Now I really feel old! Was Van Hooijdonk's partner in that free scoring Nottingham Forest side that finished 3rd in the Premier League in the early 90's. By no means a legend, but a lethal striker that year.Not that I disagree with him, but who is Bryan Roy?
Played with Foggia 30 yrs ago, first player of Raiola as an agentNot that I disagree with him, but who is Bryan Roy?
Chelsea has the similar amount of revenue as Liverpool, bit bigger but can't afford to splash out cash on expensive players since FFP came into force so Liverpool and Chelsea adopted "sell to buy" policy and have been doing for 5 years, City used fake sponsorship to allow them to spend at least 100+m net without needing to sell players for money. Both Chelsea and Liverpool unable to slash out on expensive players because of huge bills they can't afford huge net spend. I am still not convinced Liverpool has Coutinho money because I have seen a lot of the club have done like this plenty of time, for an example, Juventus just slashed out huge cash on a striker before they sold Pogba to us for £90m but they don't spend 90m net, where's that money coming from? We all knew it was money for Higuain just as much as Coutinho money is for Van Dijk and other players Klopp has brought it in. I hope they can prove me wrong when they open their pockets.Money isn't really an issue for us at the moment.

Our owners were always known to be quite tight but since last summer they've seemed to be pretty open to spending now we're starting to see good progress under Klopp. £66m bid for Keita last summer which we were willing to go up to £75m, put in a £70m bid for Lemar, £35m for Ox and £40m for Salah, £75m for Van Dijk in January and apparently we were even willing to give Monaco what they wanted for Mbappe but he wasn't interested (unsurprisingly). It makes complete sense now why they're starting to open up their pockets because our club is now financially stable and their investment will make us a lot more likely to get trophies and constantly be in the UCL, in turn increasing the club value which is where most of their profit will come from when they eventually sell the club. It really wouldn't shock me to see a £200m+ summer spend from us this summer assuming all our targets are available for "reasonable" prices.
Wasn't the partnership Roy and Stan Collymore? Roy was a pretty underwhelming Dutch winger but was a revelation for Forest up front for a period of time.Now I really feel old!

You've spent half the Countinho money on VVD and the remaining half on Keita.Money isn't really an issue for us at the moment.

This guy was dog turf against Argentina last night
Who is better suited for United doesn't Jorginho play as CDM is he capable of playing alongside Matic or would he replace him from the line up.He played alongside Verratti who play in a very similar role. Di biagio is not very bright as a manager
we'd need 3 if we also sends away Herrera. For we are losing Carrick and FellainiJorginho or Savic would do for me. Think we could bring in 2 midfielders if he gets rid of Herrera as well as Carrick and Fellaini.
Yes but we have McTominay and Carrick did not play this season( maybe once) so I don't count him.we'd need 3 if we also sends away Herrera. For we are losing Carrick and Fellaini
Jorginho is the typical regista (ie defensive playmaker). His distribution of the ball is top notch (close to the 90%-92%) and he's got great work rate. At Napoli he plays in a deep role. Despite all, he still contributed to a respectable 4 assists.Who is better suited for United doesn't Jorginho play as CDM is he capable of playing alongside Matic or would he replace him from the line up.
Savic is probably the best of the 2 as he can play both roles and is more box to box player. Just my opinionJorginho is the typical regista (ie defensive playmaker). His distribution of the ball is top notch (close to the 90%-92%) and he's got great work rate. At Napoli he plays in a deep role. Despite all, he still contributed to a respectable 4 assists.
In Italy he gets away with being a DM however I can't see him doing the same in the EPL. He's not physically imposing enough to do it. There again, he'll be a perfect partner for Matic and Pogba in a 3 men CM.
Carrick playing is irrelevant. Mourinho has been saying for us to go to the next level, we have to replace what we lose from the squad with two players. That is why Mourinho has been insisting he is buying two CMs in the summer to replace the retiring Carrick. It would have been 3 if McTominay had not emerged as Fellaini chooses to leave.Yes but we have McTominay and Carrick did not play this season( maybe once) so I don't count him.
He played for Nottingham forest alongside pierre van hooijdonk don’t you know?I can't see how Mourinho can recover from this negative criticism from Dutch legend Bryan Roy. If Philip Neville, Michelangelo Rampulla, Michael Zorc, Olivier Dacourt, Cristóbal and Celio Silva join ranks with him then he can kiss his reputation goodbye.
