I would say most of those were Doug's idea with a view to making a profit in the future. MR wouldn't say no to extra depth in attack but as said, some of that money should have gone to provide more balance across the team.

It's not optimism, I'm just saying what happened last year. I'm not suggesting we will be in any position by January, just pointing out there is no reason to worry at this stage that the season might be over by then. Your user name is cov kids never quit !!!

Early last season, following and including Norwich we had a run of 2 points from 6 games. In that run we lost to Bristol City, Rotherham, WBA, and Preston, and only drawing with Norwich and Stoke. Immediately following that run we took 27 points from the next 12 games which included taking...

Things started to go wrong the minute Lawrence left, and got worse when Adi went. **Coaching**

Well, he probably didn't fancy getting kicked all over the pitch like what happened last time he faced Norwich.

He also said during an interview that the Liverpool area had 2 top class teams. The interviewer said the other one being Everton To which Shankley replied No, Liverpool reserves

You can't just look at one player being sold at a massively overvalued price and say that's ok if the buying club wants to pay it. If the buying club then sells another massively overpriced player back to the selling club, would that become the subject of an anti money laundering investigation...

Transfer market says he's been without a club since 1st July so if true, clubs haven't been falling over themselves to sign him.

Maybe, but he's 36
