Disagree, I think O’Shea was a higher quality player relative to his position than Weghorst.
As much as I love this, we're only a couple of losses on the bounce away from people saying "Can't wait to see Weghorst leading the pressing charts againAnd has been fantastic for us so far.
Surely he is in first position per 90
"In a heartbeat. He's done enough for me to prove that's he's worth that. Even if we sign another forward, he's still a good option for certain games.
He has grown in me, but still no. I’d like to think we will have better squad options next season. But will always be grateful for his input
Yeah, no. Not like, even remotely close to make this comparison. Firminho has 78 goals and 54 assists in 247 EPL games for Liverpool. That’s better than a goal or assist every second game, over 7 years. If Wout was having such impact we’d be ecstatic.
I’ve just seen my type o. I’m gonna leave it though in the hope of being in the posts that feel sexual thread
I'm not talking about stats
I don't think Weghorst is our ideal striker. But he has come to the club, gives his all every game and his team mates seem to respect his efforts. And to top it all, Ten Hag appreciates and values him. That's what matters.As much as I love this, we're only a couple of losses on the bounce away from people saying "Can't wait to see Weghorst leading the pressing charts again
It's like Maguire with the ball carries stats. They're great until you need something more.
Huh? So what where you talking about when you said Firminho doesn’t really score? Wasn’t it scoring stats?
Having a squad also involves having different options as well. You are not going to get 22 world class players. We’ve had plenty over the years who have worked well as squad players and Wout would be no different. This doesn’t negate any view that we have to sign a world class striker as a first choice.

I wasn't saying Firminho doesn't really score although he isn't known for being a goal scorer, I was talking about Weghorst; he doesn't score although he is crucial to the team. Same as Firminho, he occupied a similar position and was considered very important to the cohesion of the team despite not being clinical in front of goal.
Firminho was crucial to the Liverpool team, not only because he was the foil for Salah and Mane. But also because he scored and assisted plenty while also doing the above. You just can’t leave that out of the total contribution of Firminho. He wasn’t just a workhorse like Wout. On his best season, in 17/18, he had 27 goals and 17 assists from 54 apps. Those are impressive numbers to go with the rest his contribution to Liverpool’s play. Numbers far above what Wout is capable of. The moment Firmnho stopped contributing enough in numbers to justify his position., he started getting dropped by Klopp.
Agree!And has been fantastic for us so far.
Surely he is in first position per 90
I'd take him for twice that as a squad option, his talent might not be great but his attitude is
Solskjaer and Sheringham are the only backup players on your list
Nah. Let's not get carried away with the tonic of winning a trophy. Weghorst works hard for the team but that's about all he offers.
Perfectly understandable. We're a shower of kids that have got attached to the cute but lunatic puppy. Everyone knows he has to go. One of these days, Erik will tell us all he has to go to the farm and we'll pretend to believe him.
Yeah I liked that. This must be a great time in his life, and he's making the most of it. Good for him.
And with the same foot that just basically passed it to the GK. Didn’t think he had a thundertwat in his left footed arsenal.
Rashford got awarded the goal so Wout has his assist.
Oh, great! He has his name to the record book then.
Beautiful
