Premier League 2025-26

[tiempo]

Was thinking earlier about how this Liverpool team remind me a lot of United under Fergie. For years they'd buy a lot of the exceptional talent at other PL clubs. Liverpool following suit and tbf its a proven, winning formula.

Nail on the head, nothing like cutting the legs off opponents by pilfering their prize assets, Utd signed some in their prime (Yorke) and some shrewd experienced players (Sheringham)

Some clubs are obsessed with imports for the sake of imports while ignoring whats already in the league

It really baffles me that Nzonzi transferred from Blackburn to Stoke, bypassing Utd Liverpool City Everton who all needed that type of player, or how they all missed Wharton, again at Blackburn

Liverpool been a lot cuter than most in recent years in the domestic market

If Gary Neville is to be believed apparently he told Utd scouts David Raya looked good enough and they shot him down, goes to show the experts haven't a clue half the time either

Moyes taking Fellaini to Utd instead of Seamus Coleman was criminal, was obvious from that decision alone that he wasn't up to the job

Whilst Fergie signed PL talent for years and years (Van P, Rooney, Ferdinand, Van der Sarr) I feel like this is the first time modern Liverpool have done so. Gakpo, Diaz, Nunez, Salah, Firmino were all imports as was Sobo, Konate, Gravenberch, Endo and Allison.

There seems to be better value had buying from the Netherlands, Portugal etc on "potential" than what is on offer from the championship teams.

Uniteds new keeper is in that "potential" bracket which is a risk they seem inclined to take and really hasn't worked out well for them to date.

Liverpool have got themselves to a level that the best players want to play for them and that is why they are now shopping in Harrods and not Tesco club card offers like United.

Robertson, Wijnaldum, Shaqiri, Henderson, Virgil all stand out as great domestic signings - Liverpool have got the balance just right at the moment, their best ever signing of recent times Salah both a domestic reject and an import, now thats genius, the Thierry Henry of his generation, proper profiling of available cast offs has to be a department in itself, likes to De Bruyne, Guehi and others spring to mind - basically, avoid the hype machine, look beyond a player presently being at an unfashionable club and do your due diligence

That fella who replaced Saliba on Sunday, Arsenal got for £15m from Valencia, in years to come that'll be heralded as one of the great bargains

Is Eze a cast off?

Rejected by Arsenal, Fulham, Reading and Millwall, making his pro debut for QPR at 19 - fair to say he was overlooked plenty

Its strange they (far right) haven't targeted the foreign footballers during their tours of the country
