Lizzi Doyle, Craig Hannan, Kev Walsh, Clare Brookfield and Cameron Rimmer talk through Liverpool’s loss to Arsenal and what the future may hold for The Reds.
Also on the show we have football finance expert Kieran Maguire on the Manchester City case and Connor Phillips and Gav Doyle reacting to the news of Jack Charlton’s death…
Last year we spent £7.2m on Minamino and, this summer, we are not expecting to spend a penny having already lost the superb Werner to one of our biggest rivals, who will be able to field Zayech, Pulisic and Werner up front next year, and possibly Havertz as well….frightening. City, on the other hand, are taking about spending £250m on new players and United are also set to spend a fortune. Please, can anybody tell me which of these policies will provide the champions for next season? Spending nothing or spending tons of money to bring in top players? If City go ahead with getting 2-4 top players then the league is over already for next season.
We can put down the current loss of form to having already won the PL but we’ve got to address the alarming lack of creativity in midfield, the diminishing impact Firminio has on the team and results and the fact that we have to rely on Origi as backup for our only three good forwards? Hopefully, Brewster will do that role next year but the squad is too small and too lightweight. I seriously think we need to look beyond Firminio as a central striker because his goal threat is minimal now and his creativity is on the wane. I seriously hope we start next year with Salah, Brewster and Mane up front!
Phil!……..definitely agree we need more creativity in CM and another option to Origi, Brewster is scoring goals at Swansea so might be the answer (5 subs next season too).
Thiago Alcantara would be a very good option in CM for me, we are very workman-like in that area (in a good way). The Ox, Origi and Shaqiri offer little tbf so are they really options next season?.
To go through 3 windows and buy no first team ready players would be disastrous for next season, surely the have money to spend?……..we make lots of money.
Agree 100%
