Manchester United set to sign Baleba and Arsenal closing in on Konsa!
Is LFC’s ambition this season Europa League qualification? Sighs.
A frustrated, venting post!

Baleba was cr*p last season to be honest. Hurzeler dropped him for parts of the season.
I think £60m is good business from Brighton and United have overpaid.
He's very raw still. Young enough that he could improve though.
Also a lot of posters were moaning on here when we were linked to Konsa - "he's not good enough"; "overpriced English defender"; "really scraping the barrel now"; and so on.

And it's the type of players that we have been crying out for as well.

Yeah, other teams definitely seem to be beefing up their squads, ours looks a little light in places for sure.

I think Baleba was crap last season for the simple reason he had his head turned, now he got his dream move, he probably returns to something closer to his best. A very very good midfielder imo. Damn it.

Arsenal can sign prime Nesta for all I care, they still have Martinelli, Gyokeres and Madueke up front.

Brown Jesus, Gunners may only have those up front, but they've recreated the old 1-0 to the Arsenal. They only need to blag a flukey set piece, then shut up shop. The spirit of George Graham is alive and well. The fact they can defend a lead is something we can't.

We should bid for Saka if Arsenal aren't going to play him.

They are still limited - like everybody else - to 25 players in their squad. If they want to fill the squad with CBs that's their prerogative.
