Hopefully the start of a new run of form
Liverpool is getting Aaron Long from the Red Bulls on a loan it looks like. He is prob the best CB in MLS. He would be in the Prem right now if not for transfer regs last time around. I believe Southampton tried buying him. Don't think he's a UCL level CB, but he's coming in with a whole lot to prove which you can't always say for loanees.
What? Wow.
Liverpool will sign 8 centerbacks before close of business today.
Nothing official but it's more than just smoke.

We will need every fucking one of them
Michael Edwards just sold Mustafi to Schalke and Liverpool doesn't even own him. LOL.
This is classic stuff. Also keeps up Liverpool's weird January tradition of buying two players on the same day who play the same position.
They'll get a big money centerback this summer as well but two today will help them carry on through the rest of the season.
Potential list of Liverpool senior centre backs after injuries:
Van Dijk
Kabak
Matip
Phillips
Davies
R Williams
Gomez
I love the guys heart but Matip needs to be sold. He cant stay healthy more than two games in a row. Phillips is playing well but not completely buying in on him yet. Williams needs more time (he is making yound man mistakes).
Im almost at passing on Gomez too. His injuries are becoming more serious and often by the year.
Isn't Matip got 3 years @ 120 week left? No one will pay that for an injury riddle player. Good player when healthy.
Would be easier to just have a Liverpool thread like we do other teams.

This is the EVERYTHING SOCCER thread. In all fairness when this thread was created, the forum was populated by a bunch of Neanderthals who thought soccer was primarily populated by persons acting like this:

Agree. Not trying to be a dick about it. We have NFL threads as well as team specific (Browns, Bears, etc...). Or just change the title to "Everything Liverpool and some other soccer stuff"
I didn’t mean to infer you were being a Dick. Having a bit a fun. Maybes it’s worth opening a forum and Subforum for teams but IMO there isn’t enough of a dialogue going to support multiple threads about soccer. I’d love for more people to post on other teams but it seems there are a still only a handful of posters who regularly contribute to this thread.
