Champions League play here we come!

Hopefully this season continues to build on the successes of the past year while avoiding some of the same pitfalls and injuries that kept us out of title contention.





Lead us onward, you beautiful, bespectacled wizard of Anfield.

Clichy might be coming in on a free.

Kudos to Milner for filling in, but I'm ready for some pace on the left.

Salah looking likely for 35m

15 goals and 13 assists in 31 Seria A appearances last year.

Hoping they pull this off. Would be a big boost to the back line.

And with City and Chelsea in hot pursuit. That signals some pretty serious intent for next season.

Even some talk about adding Costa - my goodness, this team is getting exciting. (I need to remind myself not to get my hopes up)

While recent history suggests that's a good idea, I prefer blind leaps of faith followed by crushing sadness.

What the actual hell is this? Even before the window is open?

Right? I'm really confused by this... I don't know enough about transfer politics to speak confidently on the subject, but I'm not seeing what the club did wrong, exactly.

Southampton accused Liverpool of being in contact with Van Dijk when they were not allowed to do so.

Ah, so it's one of those shady practices that everyone does. Only you're supposed to cover your tracks, and we got a little sloppy.

Costa apparently isn't welcome back at the Chelsea...

LFC twitter is going nuts over this. I guess there was a new Sporting Director (similar to a GM) who leaked the "terms" to the press before they had anything confirmed with Roma or Southampton. It's an arrogant and sloppy move and it's a big reason why LFC is so frustrating in the transfer market. Everyone makes unofficial contact, but it's dumb to announce the actual numbers.

When you compare us and Man City, we're absolute barbarians. They announce once someone is signed - we announce once they return a phone call.

Thanks for the recap. Ugh, that's extremely frustrating.

I think the FA should slap you with a transfer ban. 18 months sounds about right.

I've seen LFC twitter people tracking his flight, which sounds basically the same as the ridiculousness around here when there's a coaching or coordinator search.

We chose well, is basically what I'm saying.

I want to say "He already failed in the EPL once, he will fail again" but in all fairness he didn't get a fair shot the first time around.

Completely agree, he seems to have really found his groove at Roma and Klopp is going to have him playing naturally vs. so focused on a possession system. If we could find a truly world class ST, I think we break the scoring record.
