Liverpool

Have Liverpool signed starters or squad players?

Quality arrivals?

With Liverpool signing 3 players already this summer, and several more reportedly in the pipeline, we ask which of Liverpool’s buys (and potential buys) would go straight into the first eleven and which would have to settle for squad places to begin with.

SIGNED:

Emre Can

The 20 year old looks as if he’s got the world at his feet. Fantastic technical ability and a great engine, he’s been likened to Micheal Ballack and Bastian Schweinsteiger. But Bayern Munchen saw fit to sell him – albeit with a buy back clause which they chose not to take up – and he may struggle to get straight into the starting eleven with Steven Gerrard still key and Henderson coming off the back of a breakthrough season.

Rickie Lambert

We think Lambert is very underrated. He didn’t always get a game in Southampton but Liverpool saw fit to buy the England international this summer anyway. He rarely gives the ball away and has a great football brain but does lack pace. At 32 he will get decent game-time but may ultimately be seen as a squad player.

Adam Lallana

For a reported fee of £25 million you would imagine that Lallana has been brought to immediately adorn the first eleven.

But Lallana has a lot to prove with such a big price tag and he will want to hit the ground running. First XI.

POTENTIAL ARRIVALS

Dejan Lovren

Another player who will potentially come in for big money. You would imagine he will straight into the back five as he is a proven Premier League player with presence, leadership quality, maturity and great feet. First XI.

Lazar Markovic

Lightening pace and real guile he’s still young and can go missing in games but Liverpool need more quality out wide and we think that, with he and Lallana dovetailing on the flanks next season, they will have just that. First XI

Divock Origi

Looks as if he could go out on loan as part of any potential deal to take him to Liverpool. But we think he’s got so much to offer already and would love to see a front line of Origi, Sterling and Sturridge for Liverpool next season. It would absolutely lightning quick on the counter. Good enough to start.

Liverpool fans: would you be happy with these 6 signings or are even more big hitters required now that Luis has gone?

    All bar Sturridge & Coutinho have been the worst signings EVER,even worse than Carroll & Downing because at least they didn’t go out on LOAN which most of Rodgers do !!! Just look at this list,it’s like a who’s who of DROSS players :- Assaidi Allen Borini Aspas Alberto Yesil Ilori Sakho Mignolet / And this transfer window :- Lambert Can Lallana.FSG promised Liverpool fans QUALITY STARTERS when we got into the Champions League,well im sorry but we could have got these SHAMBOLIC AVERAGE BUYS EVEN IF WE DIDN’T HAVE EUROPE ;-( It’s time all Liverpool fans questioned FSG / Incompetent idiot ayre / SHAMBOLIC committee / And pathetic scouting network and Rodgers for the DROSS players they keep bringing too Anfield…
    FSG lack ambition from bringing in AVERAGE at best players,and the lack of ambition on the stadium ( 58,000 what a joke ) Either show the fans ambition or f*ck off !!!

    Need to show more ambition. If you’re going to sell Suarez go out and sign Rodriguez or Falcao. Not Bony!!

    FSG HAVE SHOWN PLENTY OF AMBITION AND FAKE FANS TROLLING HERE INSTEAD OF SUPPORTING OUR CLUB SHOOULD BE THE ONES TO FU#$K OFF! FSG SAVED THIS CLUB FROM ADMINISTRATION, PAID OUR DEBTS IN EXCESS OF 300m , HELD ON TO SUAREZ LAST SEASON TO HELP US GET INTO CL, ARE EXPANDING THE STADIUM, AFTER MUCH STRUGGLE BECAUSE MANY CITIZENS DID NT WANT TO LEAVE THEIR HOMES, KEPT OUR ICONIC STADIUM INTACT UNLIKE ARSENAL AND CITY SELLING THEIR SOULS (EMIRATES ELEVEN WILL COME NEXT). AS FOR FALCAO SANCHEZ..WHOSE FAULT IS IT IF THEY WONT COME? THEY WANT SAMBA SALSA BEACHES NITELIFE AND MERSEYSIDE HAS NONE OF THAT SO THEY MAKE A LIFESTYLE (NOT FOOTBALL) CHOICE AND GOTO LONDON. THEY DONT CARE ABOUT PLAYING FOR A CLUB WITH AN EMPTY TROPHY CABINET (ARSENAL) BECAUSE THEIR HEADS ARE UP BARCA/MADRID AND LYALTY TO THEIR OWN HOME CLUBS.THEY ARE HERE ONLY TO CASH IN AND THEN LEAVE. GROW UP FAKE FANS, UNDERSTAND THE GAME BEFRE U SPOUT OFF RUBBISH AGAINST LFC

    I will be not good where by you’re getting the information and facts, having said that terrific topic. I actually needs to spend time studying considerably more or perhaps realizing much more. Appreciate wonderful details I’d been seeking this information for my mission.
