Really wanted to run the rule over Zielinski earlier (not seen anything outside of highlights of him for what they're worth) who we've bid on today but he never even came off the bench for Poland in a very mediocre game against N.Ireland darn it!

Its weird because the press and so on seem to rate him. But a lot of poles I know and have spoken to Sen to think he's overrated.

Vermaelen Would be a good Toure replacement providing the finances were relatively cheap. Experienced in the Prem and could provide cover should anything happen to Sakho.

Pass on Tello. Think it may just be a player we are linked with every year rather than genuine interest

Vermaelen hasn't played football for years now lol. The guy is more injured then Darren Anderton. We already have Toure's replacement and his name is Joe Gomez.
 
Sorry Scouse but I dont have the same Love in for Hector as you do :D Good defensively but lacklustre going forward. Although he wasn't really troubled by Yarmalenko who was awful apart from one killer pass. He doesn't seem like a Klopp signing imo.

Germany will doubtless be around until the last kick of the tournament. Time for him to grow on you mate. :).

That goes without saying - The four of Lovren, Sakho, Matip and Gomez has already been said... Vermaelen was discussed if Klopp wants a 5th option who is perhaps a little more experienced

Think it would be pointless personally. Dont think the Club would waste wages on someone who cant even be relied on to play to provide cover. I know LFC have had some stupid transfers over the years but i doubt we can be stupid enough to sign vermaelan.

Wouldn't know but I do know we have one of the best Coaches in World football at finding and massively improving young talent so if he believes he fits that'll do for me.

Really liking Zielinski's attitude in openly jibbing Napoli and Champions League footie for the chance to come here too.

Yeah our coach opted for two defensive midfielders, probably for extra safety cause losing first game is always a major pain in the ***. Hopefully he features in other games. We don't really play a system that suits him, mind. We're playing 4-4-2, so CMs are there to provide safety first of all.

Not surprising, most casual fans can't appreciate a good ball distributor. Zielinski is not a second coming, but the kid certainly has talent. Comfortably two-footed, eye for a pass, decent dribble on him, he has everything to become a top player in a couple of years. Obviously you never know with someone so young though, for every Martial there's a 50 Bebes.

I was only half watching the Poland game because HOI4, but I did notice someone break from the DM a few times and go on a marauding run into the box. Who was that?

Either Mączyński or Krychowiak. I'm guessing Mączyński, since Krychowiak you'd recognize as he's buffed like 70s Russian weighlifter.

And yeah it's a biggest problem with our setup, we're set to play counter, but when we have to play possession it's dreadful...two midfield destroyers need to try and influence the attacking game, but since they can't pass for **** they bomb around taking long shots.

Vermaelen would simply be the 'Kolo Toure' signing... Anything more than that then i would agree

Would be terrible signing. He makes Sturridge looks as fit as Suarez.

If 'Kolo' type signings are needed why don't you guys just retain him rather than signing a player who hasn't played a lot in years and is very much error prone defender.
