From 21/22 onwards has been a shit show. Before that, other than Perez who was just over priced, we had some decent signings under Congerton like Justin, Castagne and Fofana. I don't think Praet was a bad signing, Rodgers for some reason just doesn't like him. 

 

Evans, Maddison and Ricardo in the same window was magnificent business! 

 

Ward, Ghezzal and Benkovic not so much 🤣

Actually surprised how much dross Pearson and Walsh bought in (Futacs, Whitbread, Hamer as examples). Think alot of fans think they hit home runs with every signing.

 

 

 

Puel + Macia was the dream team

 

 

Couldn't agree more the recruitment during this period was unbelievable.

Why did we never make the Dragovic transfer permanent ?

 

He is only 31 now. 

 

I always remember him as a good defender. Better than a few others we've had playing there since.

This is why I say all managers buy rubbish too but people tend to forget.

 

Puel was so good for us. He stabled us, got rid of rubbish and bought some good players. Took us from a the bottom three and never had us in a relegation battle after that. Perfect for a manager like Rodgers to come in, take over, a just tweak us to make us better.

beat me to it - who indeed?

Come on, Kranty, you must know him, Dutch lad, Centre back, has played the whole of one game for Liberec, a 5-0 defeat as it happens, that's THE Liberec in the Czech league. Kranthove, due to have a stand named after him any time soon*

Almost all the dross were free transfers or loans though who were always meant to be squad players. Anyone they spent money on was great.

Yeah that would be bonkers because it never happened. 

Mahrez was in the January and GTF in September. GTF was rushed through because Wood got injured because of a clash with Nugent.

Iversen to Stoke as part of Souttar deal and Kasper back as replacement?
