£8m for Coutinho
I hope he continues to get better and better as he would end up world class in 2-3 years.

Best thing about this mornings game was watching him play.

My impression so far of the pre season games is that we are trying to see which of the youngsters are going to 'make it'.

I think only Ibe will make it out of the youngsters. Suso would be worth selling in my eyes.

I think the more mature he becomes too he will know when the right time to pass the ball will be, not that he gets it wrong much now.
I think his shooting is poor and may never improve, so maybe he should just focus on setting up players instead of the 20 yard shots?

I think his goal against City means we should give him a few more chances!

Clinched the 3 points for us
Be interesting to see the goal to shot ratio though probably 3 or 4 in 50 haha

Sky seem to be linking us with a move for Milner, WTF is that about.

[GALLARDOGUY]

Saw that yesterday. Totally not a BR or FSG player though.

He wouldn't get I to the midfield. Possible as a left back but I'd still say no personally.

Left back? Never seen him play there, GG, but he is a steady enough right back.

Agree about being s strange signing though.

What's he been smoking?

Liverpool’s owner, John W Henry, believes the time was right to sell Luis Suárez and does not think the Uruguayan’s departure will have a detrimental effect on their chances of winning silverware next season.

He really needs to work on his long range shooting and the quality of passing in close quarters. The first half of that video there was quite a few passes into players with Roma players all around them and the pass certainly didn't help us keep possession. He's much more effective when there's a bit of space and there are runners he can spray passes into.

Have we completed on Remy and Origi yet?

Basically what your asking for is the complete article at 21, think back to Some of the worlds best at 21! I can't imagine there has ever been a 21 year old who doesn't need to work on a number of things

[jammy_basturd]

He's probably been kicking a footie around for 80% of his life already, how much more time does he need?!!

[BlackST]

Lovren, £20m, medical tomorrow.

Left back and striker (proven) to go then.

Southampton must be about to go on a spending spree? How much debt did they have?
