    We could have got Van Dijk. think he would have improved our team more than those two.

    Mustafi and Xhaka for 70m is the biggest waste of money I can imagine. Spunking it all on black at Las Vegas would have given a better return

    It’s the beauty of hindsight. Everyone was staggered at the price Pool paid for him. Same for Mane at the time.

    This is where having the right coach comes into play. Klopp has transformed that Liverpool team and elevated the game of every player in the squad. Van Dijk and Mane have doubled maybe even trebled in value.

    Emery needs more of his own signings to work with and less remnants of Wenger’s closing years.

    I think there should be a clearout this summer, some going on a free, Ramsey, Lichsteiner, Welbeck, then Cech is retiring, then we probably need to get rid of the likes of Mustafi, Eleneny, we also have some ageing players who probably need replacing now Koscielny is too injury prone and Monreal at 33 is probably at the tail end of his career at the top level, Suarez will head home after being a waste of time loan signing.

    I wouldn't be against replacing Xhaka either.

    You're probably looking at 7-8 leaving (4 for sure) so we'll have to be creative with replacements.

    I don't think he had any interest in going to any other club aside from Liverpool.

    They all say that and then a club offers them more money and they miraculously change their mind.

    Emery does needs his own signings.....although Suarez was a weird one.

    Guess he was a utility loan for the midfield as he can play left, right, middle. But he ended being pointless.
