Bit unfair to call the likes of Markovic, Illori etc deadwood. They were brought under false pretences by the former charlatan and never given a chance. It's best they be moved on and hope they get their careers back on track.
Illori was never given a chance at all, dude was sent off on loans without any structure on how he would be integrated into the first team. Our loans over the years have abysmal but that's another story. Markovich was played at fecking wingback by the conman I mean if that doesn't knock someone's confidence I don't know what will. You can't just say they were not up for it if they didn't even have a decent chance to well be up for it.

Regardless of what happened under Rodgers, Markovic has shown absolutely nottin' under Klopp. In a very good pre-season where most everyone got a chance to shine, including youngsters like Ejaria and Woodburn who grabbed their chances with both hands, he showed nothing. And for someone you'd think would be desperate to impress, his work ethic was found sadly wanting too. Even in the early pre-seasons last summer he was being completely overshadowed by the kids with the bulk of the vets still not back. Lad hasn't helped himself one bit.
Complete, VERY costly failure of a transfer from start to what will hopefully soon be finish.
For someone with no career here after failing to impress, that would be the very definition of 'deadwood' to me. Shrugs.
Illori's main problem was staying fit. He never did long enough or consistent enough to get anything going even the 21s/ now 23s. His legs are made of quavers. Hopefully for him he's getting past that but it remains to be seen until he plays regualarly at Reading.
Tidy ball player but no great loss who'll do well to get back to the top level for me.

Matip and Gomez got 60 minutes together the U-23's today.
The sooner that's a fixture at first team level the better for everyone!

Talking transfers (on the incoming side), it's not for the lack of trying or offering top money as per the man himself:
Klopp - Teams won't sell Liverpool their best players in January - Liverpool Echo
Klopp - Teams won't sell Liverpool their best players in January - Liverpool Echo
What time will the team coach be going past King Arry mate?

A years extension huh?
Great. That's just bumped the price on his head even higher.

People are kicking off all over social media that we're welcoming the bus. "Southampton aren't Dortmund or Villareal". ******* embarrassing. A semi final is a semi final, regardless whether its domestic or europe, whether we're playing Real Madrid or Accrington Stanley.
Personally can't wait for Wednesday night.

No accounting for idiots mate. The same 'fans' (term used VERY loosely) across different platforms are now back to having a major meltdown and blaming everyone and everything. Even to the down right ridiculous extent of questioning whether Klopp is the man for this club and why Sakho isn't brought back into the fold? Seriously.
Thankfully the match going fan isn't half as reactionary in the main. One thing the first leg should guarantee is a bouncing atmosphere. And if Southampton can be beat before they've even entered the stadium like Villareal last year all the better.
