85M it is then

[Buzzo]

What is Halaand earning p/w at City? £400k p/w???

So Halaand will cost City approx £65m more over the next 5 years.

Big step up from him this, filling the boots of a Liverpool legend (Sadio). I think he can play on the left as well, been deployed there quite a lot by Benfica.

[Charly]

I think he will play more centrally?

Seems an odd signing for the left hand side when Diaz, Diogo and Carvalho can cover that side, and we dont really have anyone for the middle or covering the right.

Haaland is an injury prone crock who is yet to prove himself on the big stage - he missed all Dortmunds important games last year.

I think he's only got on the scoresheet in 3 games since the end of Jan.

We obviously did our homework and swerved on Haaland because of this

Nunez is where it's at

I'll be ****ing 50 when his contract expires

Diaz and Jota are the Mane replacements. By all accounts Diaz was to be a summer signing so he is most likely who we had in mind to replace Mane going this summer.


Nunez will be replacing Firmino though he does drift wide at times if the games against us are anything to go by.


Gives us quite a bit of depth on the left flank and centrally what with us now having Nunez, Jota, Diaz, Firmino and Minamino (and assuming Mane's move away takes place)


Does see us not really have natural cover/competion on the right side for Salah though. We can showhorn in one of Jota, Diaz or Minamino into the right hand slot but all three seem to lose something from their game on the right wing not least the fact all three like to cut in onto their right foot and cannot do that from that side.

Being greedy about it, I would love to see us bring in Salah's eventual replacement this summer or in January so that he is getting to settle in whilst we still have Salah.

Could be one hell of an attack this coming season (not that we were lacking there to begin with) if Diaz starts to add more goals to his game (have a feeling he will explode a la Suarez in that he seemed to rush a lot of shots last season and when not snatching at them he seemed to try to be too perfect with his placements. I recall Suarez being like that for his first six months or so. Lots of chances and lots of post hitting and then the flood gates opened.

Nunez, if he settles quickly, one would expect to give a better goal return than Bobby did.

Jota will be a goal threat again like last season and Salah, well he is the safest bet around when it comes to expecting a goal return.

Could well have four attackers hitting double figures in the league.

Salah with his usual 20+ and the other three in the mid to high teens (maybe closer to 20 for Nunez if he excels)

We are just going to dazzle opposition with how handsome our starting XI are.

Dirk Kuyt approves this post

[kev776]

Diaz --Nunez--Salah

Jota --Bobby--Elliot/TBC

[Exiled_red]

Diaz --Nunez--Salah

Jota --Bobby--Elliot/TBC

Is Carvalho not more likely to play as a forward and Elliott in midfield?

[Scratch]

Diaz/Jota/Nunez - Nunez/Bobby/Jota - Salah/Diaz/TBC

I kinda see those as our options, I think Diaz could cover for Salah if we rest the Egyptian King at any point.

It's a nice problem for Klopp to have, it must be said!

[Doc_Piptorious]

Is Carvalho not more likely to play as a forward and Elliott in midfield?

Would imagine so.

From watching highlights and so on, he seems to favour the left side or the AM slot and cuts onto his right foot a lot.

Barella and Bowen on top of the rest and it will be a perfect window.

Or Nunes from Sporting if we want to raid the league in Portugal a bit further



Sits back and waits for Harv's Bowen detector to start beeping.

[Fosterbloke]

We're playing a different type of football. The opposition will be penned into the top right of the pitch while runners have a clear sight on goal.
