About Liverpool, havent read the news few days now. I can see that you have singed a GK Loris Karius. Is he first team material or your favorite Mingolet will start with his 5 year deal?

A few days? ******* **** mate captured him weeks ago!

To answer your question; according to Karius he didn't sign to sit on the bench. So here is hoping he's right, but I've got a feeling he might be a cup keeper for the first season or two.
 
I'd be up for it if something got boxed off that fit everyone interested. And smaller numbers wouldn't be a bad thing at all if there wasn't the interest.

yeah I wouldn't expect a massive turnout but so long as it was say 10 or so I would be happy to come along, its just the when and the where for me right now. I am so busy right now working and planning a new business venture (why the **** I am taking a year out of uni to go self employed is anyones guess), but have to guage interest and see the lay of the land

I'm still keen lads!

Not sure where Epic is from but I know Scouse is from .....Salford was it mate? ;)

Liking that he get's a 3 week or so head start on the Belgium buffoon in training and the first 4 domestic friendlies. Good chance to bed down an understanding with the first choice defence (save for Clyne) and impress the manager. And with everything pointing to him being left out of the German Olympic squad that's another major bonus.

We'll know in 6 weeks one way or the other but I'm expecting him to start at Arsenal opening day. Klopp didn't hand pick from his own club for nottin' when everyone thought we were looking elsewhere at other German 'keepers.
 
He'll let them compete to be number 1

Yeah, I have feeling it'll be put out as an open contest pre-season, but barring a complete disaster from Karius, he'll be the one with the job to lose.

Be interesting to see who is in goal at Arsenal the opening game like.
 
Ruben Neves rumours resurfacing due to Porto's FFP troubles... Price of around 20mil euros being quoted.

Would be a great signing if any of it is true - seems FFP is the only possible reason they would let him go below his release clause

Let the battle commence. I'm sure Mou and Mendes are already in his ear ;)

Never seen him play, but read a lot of different articles on him the past 8/9 months being as he's been linked to Klopp on and off right through. Everything reads great and he would appear to have all the attributes needed for a holding midfielder in what we do. What I can go on without ever seeing him in a game is the fact that he's got bags of experience for a 19 year old (75 appearances already for Porto, with 17 in Europe), along with being the youngest ever Portuguese player in the Champions League and the youngest ever player to captain a side in the Champions league. To have so much experience and to captain Porto already at such a young age speaks volumes and suggests all the glowing reports are true.

As always, if the crazy German wants him, that's all I need to know. Be great to get him on the cheap and at such a young age to still be able to mould him to what we want through coaching.

We'll see if anything comes of it. 2 months to run yet this window. I can see another 3 or 4 incomings and a lot going out the other way.
