So Luan, Robertson and Kjaer today then?
I like Robertson and have been suggesting him since January so happy there. I have only seen clips of Luan so I'll reserve judgement (as the clips were underwhelming to say the least) . However I really hope Kjaer rumours are fabricated. He is an okay player, but I don't believe he is an upgrade on Lovren or Matip.

We are not signing a CB this summer according to the Eds. Kjaer is a completely fabricated rumor by desperate papers. Luan also pretty sure won't happen. Robertson probably will be the LB we sign.

Whata the point in getting hMions league if qe sign robertson. Not even good ebough for hull.
Nees a better lb than that.
{Ed002's Note - If Gomez were to leave then Liverpool will look to add a centre back. Robertson is a player that Liverpool are looking to buy. Simon Kjaer is likely heading to the South of France (if an issuette can be resolved). Luan is of interest but his ownership needs untangling.}

Thanks Ed2. Without yours and Ed1's knowledge we'd all almost certainly be lost. ☺.
{Ed002's Note - You are welcome Nick.}

Shame. No lb fix then.
How are yoy going to improve when you buy players like that.
Listen i know support and don't trash but he's just not good enough in any sense of the word.
The money city and united will spend his summer will see them add aboht 150 mil of quality each. Chelsea and arsenal. Totteham i don't know about with the new stadium.
But we have to buy better than that.
Ed001 has done notbing buy rave avout sessegnon and tierney. Celtic and fulham, they are very attainable.
Robertson has to be one of the last choicea rather leave it.
You all will have a go at me but this is why we have never won the premier league. Simple. Signing no better than what's in the team or academy.
Should only wver sign better than what you have.
Robertson better than gomez, milner or even moreno at lb? Nopes.

If Luan is the same Luan as played for Brazil at the Olympics, he's a lively kid with some ability. But no idea what he's been up to in the past year and of course, Olympics football isn't a joke but it's not the Premier League.

Not all players cost 100 million mind. sometimes you need to spot something in a player and have some balls to take the gamble.

Buying part of a defence that shipped in 67 goals so far this season is certainly a gamble, especially when his stats are far worse than Milner and he's only been ok. I just don't see the positives in Robinson. Average defending, average attacking ability. If that's the best we can do then God help us. We need quality not another Klavan.

Robertson was subbed today in hulls biggest game of the season at half time after getting roasted, if this is true it's utterly embarrassing.
14 May 2017 20:26:26
LI've we did with Deli Alli 😀.

Like pennant, babel, bellamy, johnson, skrtel, voronin, aspas, alberto, ballotelli, poulsen, konchesky, dossena, adam, diouf, diao, jovanovic, cheyrou, pongolle, cole, traore, cissokho, sahin, ngog, borini, xavier, nunez, allen, kyriarkos, lambert, markovic, moreno, insua, kromkamp, josemi, barragan, el zhar, klavan, degen, assaidi, yesil, manquillo, bogdan, jones, merieles, benteke, downing, carroll, enrique (ANOTHER LB), coates,
A few next henrys and gerrards in there.
6 lbs
Atleast 8 of them signed after qualifying for the champions leage the year before and finishing 2nd
No premier leages for us after.
I guarentee i could search all those namea on here and archives permitted the post will be "going to be world class" "drop x player he's better" "sell him we have our replacement anyway".
There all run of the mill players ans that's how you stay a run of the mill team.
Yoy have to buy the best to be the best or atleast better than what you have.
Itz about raising expectation in the club. Alaba should be the target and why not, aim for an a and youll get a b. Aim for a c and well, no premier league tropheys tells you.
Hate not every player costs millions, well atleast 80% do and they get you titles and trophys.
You only say that to justify signing bad players.
Btw bellamy was a hit his second time around.

Is there any chance we could buy be looking to buy two left backs this summer? Robertson might make an ok backup but I'd be disappointed to see him brought in as first choice.
This would mean Moreno leaving, of course.
Robertson against the likes of Messi, Dybala etc in the Champions League could be very embarrassing.
