I was going to post something smartarsed but I've lost the will to think straight. The window shuts in less than 4 days and I'm not remotely convinced we're addressing our WF/ pacey forward issue in the time we have left. What a bag of excretion this is

You got some statistical evidence to back that up?

More chance Origi than Martial, as things stand. And Origi just an inquiry at this stage, but we have interest.

Thanks for the info as always,

I am a fully signed up member of the BSODL but this is the sort of flip flop that even has me wavering.

Not saying we havdany chance with Martial, but we need a player in that mold and Origi is not it.

It will be fantastic to be proven wrong, that's for sure.

With Janssen potentially leaving (check his thread, there's some interesting info from a Stoke ITK), and with Herc saying that Poch wants a 'flexible' forward player, the only one I can think of from Italy who can play across the forward line is Patrik Schick. He absolutely fits the bill, but he has many suitors, including Roma who have been strongly linked with him over the past few days.

Too late now. Roma want him. Inter want him. Now even Juventus is back in the hunt. That's what you get when you put yourself in a situation like that.

That would confirm we really are a busted flush in this transfer window, somehow the player we need is a Liverpool offcaste who has looked ordinary at best, surely we haven't relied on stumbling onto Origi at the last moment, tell me it's not true.

and Klopp first denied it, saying he has a place in the squad, then said that some can go if they get players in. So he really would be an offcast. A last gasp Fraizer Campbell type of deal. Oh joy.

I don't think Martial has the skill set we are missing. I maintain we need a drop the shoulder creative type.

It's the sort of transfer shit we might have conducted ten years ago- Benteke, Origi. Jesus shat the bed and tit flicked my gran, why are these names even being considered?

If it meant Mourinho getting his players as in perisic then he might as they are negotiating and a 70 million package isn't that bad, hopefully levy could get most of the up front fee from wimmer, sissoko and Janssen

I kinda know what you mean - Martial is a quicker and more skillful version of Son imo. Now he is very talented and I would love him here but he is more of an attacker than a creative force. However what I disagree with is that we doesn't have something we are missing - he is very quick and can beat a man - we desperately need that in the final third.
