I don't know if hes Hungarian but he plays lb for Napoli apparently

Ghoulam qould be a good signing for you. Napoli are interested in Moreno too so could end up a swap deal

Chelsea are now strongly in for him according to Di Marzio

Its still so early, lucky Salah agreed to join before seeing if we even qualify for the CL group stages....

Also we probably need to shift a few more players too then see where we stand. Wisdoms gone, Moreno looks to have a lot of interest? Sakhos had a price slapped on him? what about Flanagan Lucas Markovic? Think Stewart might be going too might keep Flanagan around the team being local etc not sure but the fact TAA was prefered probably means hes done.

Like to keep Lucas around as squad player but not sure if hes happy with that role, don't really care about the rest.

Sounds like he really wanted to come to us. It also sounds like he's going to have to force the issue if he's going anywhere, so it is likely he would try to force a move to Liverpool if he does.

Did he really or were you the only one at that time willing to pay the massive fee and wages? Maybe Chelsea have changed their minds.

Think you'll be waiting a while for a dm signing.

Keita is not a defensive midfielder

Jonas Hector

posted on 23/6/17

Chillwell had an excellent game for the U-21 England team last night, he could be a good option.

posted on 23/6/17

We aren't signing Aubameyang you melt.

Don't think we will get Keita either, maybe next summer depending on how this season goes for the respective clubs.

I can see us waiting for VVD.

So left back is the next likely move, or there may be a few outgoings first.

No point waiting on VVD and having to endure another season of Lovren. Move on to plan B in the defensive area.

posted on 23/6/17

What about Yoshida? He filled in when VVD was injured for over a month and Southamptons defence didn't suffer too much, they were still playing at the same level. Would be much cheaper option.

Auba not happening, Klopp and him didn't get on well T Dortmund say the likes of Joyce and Pearce.

Keita, very unlikely by the looks of things, player is happy and club have zero interest in selling.

VVD possibly but it will be very late it window if does happen and I can see him going elsewhere before then

Sounds like it may be this Ghoulam fella. If we can get Moreno gone the other way it could be a great deal for us.

We have an early critical qualifier that we need out team together for.

Imo cm next. Henderson could break down bags in and can is at confederations and will go on hols

There's not a lot of options out there for us who are an upgrade on Lovren.

You are deluded if you think there are.

Koulibaly maybe but his price also looks very high and unlike VVD isn't proven in England.

Top class centre backs in the 24-28 age bracket with leadership and personality are few and far between.

posted on 23/6/17

Not a huge fan of Salah but will now be behind him 100%

For me we need a left back centre back and a forward and they need to be top players - even if Salah proves me wrong we have him Mane, Couts, Lallana, and seem like we have more than enough of this type of player

Deluded? Bit strong. There are always options.

Personally I'd go and ask Bayern Munich about Jerome Boateng. Hasn't really played since the arrival of Hummels but is strong, quick and should be at his peak.

Jonathan Tah seems highly rated by many if we're looking for a younger option.Stefan de Vrij has been mentioned in the press (although his injury record looks a concern).

Manolas is available but looks to be heading to Russia. Benatia is struggling for game time at Juve (who wouldn't behind their CBs) and is an experienced player.

Or if we're feeling really flush offer big wages to Godin and hope to hell he fancies a new challenge

Boateng I wouldn't say is an upgrade on Lovren.

He struggled at City and hasn't proved he can step up to Bayern level. A maybe but no certainty there.

Leverkusen were woeful at the back last season so Tah would be a massive massive risk and unlikely to meet what we need for several years if at all.

De Vrij isn't better than Lovren IMO, he's good but so is Lovren.

Manolas I have always liked but he looks a defender suited to a different style of play when I have seen him.

Benatia is all hype and has never done anything as well as having injury problems.

I don't think any of those fit as being clearly better than Lovren. VVD is clearly better, both statistically and more subjectively.

we arent signing a auba or any other expensive striker, sturridge will stay this season with apps from the bench

His knowledge on Defenders only goes as far as Southampton.
