Re: Transfer Thread: 2023 -> 2024
Lukaku, after ruining his relationship with Inter to push for a move to Juve which never happened, seems headed to reunite with Mourinho at Roma.
If he can stop blocking his own teammates shots, and if him and Dybala are healthy, they are going to be a problem.

Thanks, it’s a shame some of our fans are deluded and can’t see this as well. Throwing their toys out their pram on Twitter because ‘WE WANT A STRIKER AND WINGER AS WELL’. Yes that would be nice to have, but we needed to sign a Mings replacement since he’s out for the whole season (that’s where we loan Lenglet) and also get players off the books.
Unfortunately like most fans these days on socials, they think transfers are like Football Manager or Fifa.
Sorry for the mini rant lol, but I just hate our entitled section of our fanbase.

It's just how modern football fans are on social media, it's a wasteland. Spurs went out of the cup last night on penalties away at Fulham, and 9 of the starting 11 were rotated from our previous game at Bournemouth. Our fans went absolutely ballistic, at Levy, at Ange, at the players, like we have some divine right to beat a decent side like Fulham. Demanding we sign more players, calling Ange a fraud, etc. It's madness.

I don't really get it since the club is already loaded on the wings, but I'll take it.

Cole Palmer to chelsea. Why would Man City sell such a talent - and to a rival?
I was really hoping the Enzo connection could land him on loan until he once again played out of his skin in pre-season.

I've only seen him in a few matches, but he profiles to me as a 9 that can do other things? The price seems good for City for a player that is duplicative based on the squad they have and their recent buys. Maybe Chelsea isn't sold on Jackson as the 9 until (or even really after) Nkunku returns.
It's time for 5 refs.

Ange was correct to rotate nine, especially when you think about the upcoming European football... oh wait.

Midfield has upgraded mightily but that defence needs help.

Unfortunately, Liverpool never fills every hole in a transfer window.
With Matip (32) entering the last year of his contract and van Dijk's age (32), next summer's focus will be the CB position along with replacing Salah (31).

I think that'll cost them a CL spot this season.

We shall see.
For much of his tenure at Liverpool, Klopp has managed to keep the club in the CL, despite gaps in the roster.
Last year was an eye opener for him, though. Fans had been begging for a midfield rebuild, but because of Klopp's loyalty, he wasn't willing to do so. He kept pointing to the depth, though half the players he mentioned were injury prone -- Keita, Ox and Thiago.

All I desperately need today is a Gallagher buzzer beater bomb to Spurs.
Nusa & Moscardo are cherries on top. but Gallagher departing is essential.

Best case scenario for Liverpool is Bajcetic regains fitness and Alcantara proves a useful foot soldier this season.
Spending on Endo and Gravenberch though and in the process helping Bayern fund for a holding monster in Palhinha that they desperately need is hilarious.
