    Don't get a lot of chances to go after someone like Klopp. Especially without any other major clubs with vacancies

    Even Sherwood is smarter than our transfer committee

    @HLNinEngeland: Sherwood on Benteke: "There’s no point going to a club where they don’t cross the ball". Liverpool 19th in the cross ranking.

    (Not that Rodgers would properly use either of them)

    Clyne I'm on board with just because of Glen Johnson. Anything is a huge upgrade right now. For play and salary.

    I guess our plan is to play nothing but central/attacking midfielders. Brendan can run the 3-7-0 again that we saw at Stoke

    No way Brendan is gonna actually make a bid for a player with both

    I don't even know how a team goes into the transfer market without knowing what formation or system the coach is going to run. I'm guessing we'll go back to the 4-2-3-1 again to start next year but who the fuck knows. Moreno-Lovren-Skrtel-Clyne, Allen-Henderson, Lallana-Coutinho-Milner, Benteke. I think that's Brendan's dream starting 11 next year.

    Liverpool turn heat up on Rodgers

    http://www.thesundaytimes.co.uk/sto/sport/football/article1562755.ece

    LIVERPOOL are exploring alternatives to Brendan Rodgers, adding to uncertainty about whether the manager will survive an end-of-season review.

    He is to be appraised on his performance during 2014-15 in a process led by Mike Gordon, the executive from Fenway Sports Group with most responsibility for day-to-day business at Anfield.

    Rodgers and Gordon have a good rapport and the manager remains appreciated by others in Liverpool’s hierarchy, but that has not stopped other options being explored.

    A process is under way of examining the availability and credentials of other candidates, such as Jurgen Klopp, whose reign at Borussia Dortmund ended last night after the German Cup final, which Dortmund lost 3-1 to Wolfsburg. Klopp has indicated he would consider the Liverpool job – despite initially saying he planned a sabbatical when his time at Dortmund was over.

    It is thought Rodgers still has a very significant chance of remaining in charge, provided he can satisfy FSG that a disappointing 2014-15 campaign – where Liverpool finished sixth in the Premier League and performed badly in Europe – was a blip. Inside the club, the expectation is Rodgers will still be manager when next season begins.

    Embarrassing defeats in Liverpool’s final two games, a 3-1 home loss to Crystal Palace and 6-1 humiliation at Stoke, have increased the pressure on Rodgers. However, Liverpool are pressing ahead with attempts to sign Christian Benteke, Nathaniel Clyne, James Milner and Danny Ings – all targets favoured by Rodgers.

    Gordon is due to meet Rodgers, who is on holiday in Spain, in the next fortnight. An American, he is FSG’s second largest shareholder after John W Henry, sits on Liverpool’s board of directors, and spends significant periods in Merseyside.

    Rafael Benitez, whose name a number of supporters chanted during the 6-1 defeat at Stoke, will be unveiled as Real Madrid’s new manager on Wednesday.

    Klopp, who led Dortmund to two German titles and a Champions League final during seven years in charge, is favourite to be offered the job if Liverpool decide to make a change. More than just the manager’s position will be scrutinised in Gordon’s review, with changes considered in Liverpool’s medical department and recruitment structure.

    So, I guess we sit on Rodgers for another year and then hire Klopp after he "takes a break".

    He always fucks up the first part of the season so I expect him to be out around January. Problem is I think Klopp waits it out and takes Bayern when Pep leaves.

    Wouldn't mind them taking that with Lovren's first 10 games only. Other than errors it would not be much different.

    According to Anfield Wrap, Rodgers is staying and Ings and Milner are done deals. Reportedly Milner has been guaranteed first team football so who the fuck knows who Brendan is taking off the field for him.

    Jay Riley ‏@Jay_78_ 2h2 hours ago
    People will still moan. But Ings, Milner & Clyne for under £20m would be a decent start to #LFC's summer transfer business if all 3 come off.

    I agree with Riley, but the problem is these are just more squad players. Not really addressing the quality striker or DM concern.

    I would argue that RB is the 2nd biggest concern. I'm not so sure CDM will be a problem if we can put Can there regularly and hold on to Lucas.

    Right the problem is that doesn't make our starting 11 that much stronger. Plus are we going to fall for another Southampton defender?
     
  45. Quick

    People have been screaming for us to sign Clyne. And he makes the starting 11 way better considering who we have been playing there.

    That's true but that's partially because of who the manager is. Manquillo was fine as a right back in a back 4. If that's the formation we're going to play, we should be spending 15 mil on getting a right center back to play with Sakho
     
  47. BPDuncan

    BPDuncan Ahhhh, now I get it.

    Yeah, Manquillo and Wisdom...unless Wisdom is moving to the Center. May mean Manquillo is going back to Atletico early.

    Wisdom or Ilori will get a shot at cb during the summer and if they can't hack it then grap someone.

    Mostly RB under Rodgers, at Derby and for Alan Irvine at West Brom. Tony Pulis never played him much. He is probably best sited for RCB, but who knows under Rodgers.
