It is what it is, very rarely do you get an exciting transfer (Mata was a good one!). But we found Vidic and Evra in January, so it is worth while

Not a fan, it should be used for loans only.

Should be scrapped

I barely even pay attention to it anymore. We've signed suare, fowler, coutinho and sturridge. We've sold torres. We bought Andy Carroll. We've had mixed success.

In the last 4 years or so though, we've basically pretended it's not happening, so as a Liverpool fan it's pretty difficult to care.

off the top of my head, Walcott, arshavin, arteta? Mertasacker, Elneny.....

don't see why there are windows at all, why not have it all year round. seems to me its just a way of TV/media condensing the hype for 2 separate periods of a year.

I hate it, its stupid. Any team who has shown any promise and initiative being smart over summer can get usurped by any team with money. Waaaaaaank fest that. Kills home grown talent production as well.

Suarez, Sturridge, Coutinho and Fowler?

Lucky f*ckers.

Happy New Year to ya Edinspur.

It’s probably my silly memory playing tricks on me and I can’t be bothered to google, but did you re-sign Robbie Keane in the January
Window?

What a fantastic player he’s been.

I think I remember hearing the Ireland/Holland second leg to qualify for a tournament (it may have even been Euro 96) And either Quinn or Aldridge was trying to either equal or become Ireland’s all time record scorer on something like 19 goals?!

Keane has obliterated that total. I genuinely feared the worst when he went to Pool.

I'd like to see the Summer window extended by another 4 weeks to the end of October. That way you're a bit further into season and get a better perspective on players and teams.

Then keep the Jan window for emergency loans only.
The squad you settle on at end of October has to be it.

I don't like how teams can buy their way out of trouble and cherry pick the lesser clubs players mid season. In summer fair enough as they get a proper chance to replace them.

Jan window isn't fair in my opinion. It must give teams scrapping near bottom of Prem sleepless nights.

IMO its not a great thing. Its there for clubs who have issues more than anything and really only the summer window really works.

LFC have had great times and barren times in it.

Rafa Benetiz picked up a couple good uns like arbeloa and maschernao but a lot of dross. Rogers got coutinho and sturridge one year.

but in general its quite hard to part a decent player from his club.

Actually its more about young lads clubs are willing to offload to balance the books.

Everton have bought one this window.

I am in favour of it being open for one week only.....still about 5 days of nothing happening to be fair

I'd like it more if we signed someone.

posted on 12/1/17

If we do sign anyone it's a kid who's then loaned back to the selling club until the summer.

Not really. You usually can't sign anyone good since no one is wants to well mid season and most good players are cup tied for the cl anyway.
