Or even a good loan or two. Clarke has gone so free's up a spot. A big nasty centre half would be a god send right now.

Absolutely

Huge increase in the wage bill
Biels's contract
Training ground improvements
They also have to pay £15 million for Costa at the end of the season, which if we don't go up will have to be found from somewhere (probably KP's transfer)

as you say if we dont go up we will get £30m for Phillip's. if the owner hasnt the money, and he has, then there are investors queueing up. if we dont spend and dont go up its squarely on hos shoulders.

Looks like Eddie could be going and might end up at Bristol.
Bielsa saying he needs to replace Eddie and maybe Clarke.
FFS we should have them both plus another striker and or winger as well as a defensive midfielder and a creative midfielder.
For me we need 4 -6 in if they both go.

Going to be very difficult brining in someone as good as Nketiah who will be happy sitting on the bench. Bamford will play every week if fit. We will bring a couple in if Bielsa needs them. Watching with interest.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Mon Dec 30, 2019 6:26 pm  

Whoever we sign will be back up players, so the likely-hood of getting someone as good as Eddie is unlikely. Same with Clarke, whoever we sign will be on the bench at best, which will make it difficult to get anyone on loan.

Yep. They may have to sign permanently. This will not be an easy window

The striker from Liverpool would be a good signing.
But we need to play him not sit warming the bench.
