Alex Oxlade Chamberlain aka "The Ox"

[Buzzo]

In this modern day age of mercenary football ****s, he deserves some praise for that. Not many footballers would take a pay cut. Think it proves he has a tremendous amount of desire to succeed as well and is probably the main reason Klopp wants him. Plus his pace of course.

He must see how Klopp makes players better and want some of that.

...That and the hugs.

Or we've been more generous with the image rights aspect so he's making as much/more with us.

Your such a cynic/realist

Either way he wanted us and turned down the current League Champs to get his move. Respect due.

His legs and feet look well small. Not sure how they support that torso

You think Ox's image rights are worth £50k/week?

Its an interesting move for him and us. I can see what Klopp likes, he's got pace and a serious engine, and is pretty versatile, but he has stagnated at Arsenal. Can't see him in our first XI if everyone's fit but he obviously has faith in himself to force his way in at Anfield & an understands that Klopp does operate a meritocracy.

Hopefully it works out well for both of us. Welcome to LFC Ox

I agree with that, the bit that I don't get is the central midfield role, I could see him playing the attacking midfield like Coutinho or Lallana have played but there is alot of competition in there, the obvious role for me seems to be rotating him with one of Salah and Mane, two from those three would be good and would keep everyone fit and fresh.

[Red_Polo]

Has he actually said himself he wants centre mid? Or just suggested he doesn't like being a wingback? He's obviously potentially good option behind the front man or out wide, and that's where I expect he'll be getting his games.

[Shaggy]

He said in a BT interview recently that he "wants to be Steven Gerrard"

[Fosterbloke]

He's going to be coached in the Lallana mould I'm sure of it. Fast as **** player, keeps the ball well and can actually pass it forward. He'll press the **** out of the opposition at speed and do something with the ball when he wins it back.

£40m is crazy considering his the remaining length of him contract but **** it, while Sky are showering us with Monopoly money, lets go spend it!

Onward to Lemar and VVD! 24 hours to go!!

I wonder how much coffee is consumed at this period of the transfer window?
