Many of this lot think they’ll sign both Rice and Caicedo.

But they’re ready to viciously attack Kroenke and Fabrizio Romano if Chelsea sign Caicedo.

Chelsea is many things but it’s not a shit-hole.

strong and stable with me, or...
I mean they’re right, Rice - Odegaard - Caicedo in their midfield with Saka and Martinelli would be formidable. Can’t see them having the best part of £200m to spend though.
Why can't we demand Mr Bloom's head on a stick each time our aspirations are not met? Our level of entitlement is shitehouse. I'm ashamed to be supporter, sometimes.

To me it’s obvious they need both. Partey and Xhaka were their only dedicated and effective pivots, but until last season Xhaka was widely lambasted and apparently he heads back to Germany this summer. Whilst Partey was blamed for the last 9 games implosion and may soom be otherwise occupied.

I bet that in his mind he is as rugged and attractive as his user pic. I, on the other hand....

BBC also £55m
Is it just me or....isn't £55 million rather a lot for (don't get me wrong, he's a lovely lad but....) a bang average EPL midfielder? I don't think he has the sort of pace that Liverpool need. Witch House football, certainly but, heavy metal football? Well, time may prove me wrong.....

He is ABSOLUTELY not bang average.Is it just me or....isn't £55 million rather a lot for (don't get me wrong, he's a lovely lad but....) a bang average EPL midfielder?

A slight exaggeration, perhaps.
Do you think £55 million is a decent price for him, if that's what it turns out to be? And do you think he'll take the Liverpool attack up a level?
Only time will tell. Of course. But I'm going to predict that he'll not pull up many trees.
And I'm not going to lose any sleep. I hope others won't. Talk of our squad being decimated by the Siren Lure of Money, and it being the beginning of the end does my head in. That was my point, really. Onwards and upwards and all that

Liverpool is a globally-sized club. AliMac will be a star in their average midfield. Still passionately believe that the RIGHT footballing decision would be to stay with RDZ for another season. However, the football universe doesn’t operate like that and Tony and his/our Albion are trying to orbit the football establishment in a different way. Best of luck OUR World Cup winner.A slight exaggeration, perhaps.

I think it depends how Klopp intends to use him. He's an upgrade on what they have had there this season, but I think a lot depends upon who they partner with him. He was not as good as a 10 as he was as an 8. It will be interesting to see how he settles into that team, I think Liverpool may take time to get going next season.A slight exaggeration, perhaps.

. Probably £10-15m light for me.World class player, who will instantly improve a weak Liverpool midfield, however they need at least 2-3 defenders IMO to properly challenge City.
But you’re right, players come and go, but the fans are the constant….
We’ll soon have new heroes to worry…. I mean cheer….
It’s a great price given it was essentially agreed before the WC when he was on the fringes of the Argie squad.I don’t

Sorry, I don’t agree. Before the World Cup I would still have suggested £65m.
Based on age, Argentinian squad member, PL experience, pre World Cup form.
Compared to Cucurella for example…. Grealish had achieved less at the time of his move and is nearly double the cost (English tax isn’t 50%).
It’s happened now and I’m sure there will be some great replacements.
….and a 1 year contract. No chance.
