2 players that could be good options up front
Neither did Grimes and we paid a 7 figure sum for him.He's 32.
At that age he doesnt exactly fit what Doug usually goes for.
He is on £0 a week when he leaves Everton.60k a week Doucoure will not be coming to us

Grimes is 29Neither did Grimes and we paid a 7 figure sum for him.
So? By that logic we could sign Kevin De Bruyne thenHe is on £0 a week when he leaves Everton.
So? By that logic we could sign Kevin De Bruyne then
And not the type of player we have brought in since King took over.Grimes is 29
Logic? Just pointing out someone isn't on 60k a week when they're out of contract. And most probably won't get offered as much as that now either.So? By that logic we could sign Kevin De Bruyne then
Lampard has made 2 signings since taking over. Both exceptions to the rule....As an exception to the rule…

We’ll need to sell him if we want to the budget to push on again.I'd hope if Wright is sold and Gyokeres moves there might be enough money in the pot to resist offers for MVE
I imagine he’ll be much more involved compared to previous seasons.I highly doubt Lampard joining the club will signal a change in recruitment policy. Grimes was a top end Championship midfielder that was available reasonably cheaply.

Frank has won a tonne of things as a players always with a mix of young and proven players. I doubt he will move far from that model as a manager.Almost definitely and generally, his preference is to work with younger players and he’s made that clear when talking about it his coaching style.
Robins was more involved with recruitment than we think to be honest and if he did take a step back, it would’ve definitely been his own doing. I just cannot imagine a scenario where Robins would’ve asked to be more active in recruitment and being told no.
By the sounds of murmurings from ITKs, he pushed for specific targets such as BTA.

Good post. Agree with your positions for next season, only one being CM - really interested what happens hear - does Sheaf go? If he stays can he re capture form? I still think we are missing a dynamic all action, physical type and would like to see this bought in.On a podcast I was listening to Ian Graham (Liverpool Head of Data under Klopp) said the best way to build a squad is to integrate 3 first team players per season (you can sign more players but only 3 should play over 2000 minutes in their first full season)
Players are able to develop an understanding with each other while the new lads allow enough freshness so tactics don't go stale & teams work you out. Liverpool went from 8th in the Prem to 97 points & Champions League winners following this model
In terms of our squad build & signings playing over 2000 minutes:
23/24:
- 8 summer signings (Thomas, MvE, Wright, Ellis, Lati, Collins, JDS, and Kitching)
- Saka just missed out so 9 including him
24/25:
- 2 summer signings (Dovin, Rudoni) & 1 Jan 24 signing (Torp)
- Grimes & EMC semi-integrated having played 1365' & 1635' respectively
What positions do you think we'll bring in players who play 2000+ minutes next year? For me its LB, CM, ST (& RB if MvE leaves)

didn't we say that exact thing about BTA?I'd be tempted by Diangana if wages were reasonable. Versatile, experienced and always scored against us!
BTA wasn't freedidn't we say that exact thing about BTA?
