Fantastic achievement and really pleased we beat Derby with a much changed team.
Struijk looked very comfortable and Shackleton did the team proud.
Whilst he didn`t score I thought Roberts looked much better up front and was prepared to shoot on sight.
His pass for Shackleton`s goal was sublime.
Douglas also looked much better at LB.
Poveda if he can put on 10kg will go well and imo will be better than Harrison/Costa.
He`s a bit lightweight at the moment.
Benrahma and Perraira as mentioned would add to the team along with Hernandez from Norwich.
2 out of those 3 plus a defender will do.
Is the JKA deal totally done with now as he looked a good signing.
Goal keeper is going to be a dilemma next year.

Being honest and judging by yesterday, I wouldn’t be suprised if Casilla ends up staying. Bielsa said he’d only play if the players are happy and judging by yesterday and the celebrations it looked like they were. Meslier needs to be first choice though.
The names mentioned above are very pleasing, if Brentford don’t go up I’d also like to get Watkins. Watkins and Benharama would thrive under Bielsa. Hernandez and Beundia would also be good. I feel we will have a real good crack next season with a few additions and then go big the year after, just what Sheffield United look like doing.

We’d trouble a lot of teams with those guys in the squad. I think we do need some proven prem lge quality though too

Re JKA, I think it's more that Bielsa doesn't think he's really injured.

If Brentford don`t go up I would be happy us offering Costa on loan or as a makeweight for any of the 4 mentioned but that won`t happen after we just spent 15 m on him..
Shame about Berradi with that injury as this could be the end of the road for him too.

And out of contract end of this season.
He was never going to set the world on fire but was a good squad player and rarely let us down.

That’s 3 defenders we need then including signing White

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Wed Jul 22, 2020 1:51 pm  

Cavani linked with Leeds!
Now that would be a great signing.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Wed Jul 22, 2020 3:01 pm  

Unlikely, 33 and would want 150+k a week. We're also linked with Zlatan. I can't see him lasting a day working with Bielsa hahaha
