Shop around for doctors! Always fucking shop for doctors. Doctors are stupid assholes. And they get by because people are cowed by their mystical bullshit quality of being able to maintain a 3.0 GPA at some Guatemalan medical college for 3 semesters. Find one that makes sense.

I thought Origi looked promising. We need a cool and good striker who has pace and can play well with his new BFF Coutinho.

I feel like Spurs would be better off signing Igahlo than Berahino. Having said that, I'd rather they just get the thing done right away, rather than wait the whole window with Levy trying to buy Berahino for Igahlo's price.

Also, he is 28 and hugely injury prone, and I'm not sure that he would end up any better than Danny loving Ings.

I don't understand why anyone wants to buy Berahino at the price WBA want. He's decent enough but £25m for a striker with an attitude problem who's one tweet away from sulking in White Hart Lane's car park?

Chelsea had literally no fit, available first team strikers for Manchester United but I'm sure they'll feel just fine loaning one of them out nonetheless.

If this happens, then Roman's splashing the cash elsewhere.

That said Bamford is returning and he's probably as good as Remy.

It's not Wengy as gently caress to buy a player at the apex of their hype, however. It will probably just be the el ninny guy. I'd be happy for another signing though. A RB would be nice if Debuchy does leave, but that would make things complicated when Jenkinson returns.

I'm hearing conflicting reports. It seems the real interest is coming in big from Roma as they have just shifted Iturbe to Watford and Salah is injured.

True, he'll probably buy him in a year or so after everything's died down, Arshavin style.

I've heard Jenkinson is trash now. Can Ninja Steve confirm/deny?

Remy is a proven PL goal scorer who can't get a start (fitness being an issue but) and Bamford scored goals in lower leagues. He's going nowhere with the team like every other youth player.

I don't mean literally nowhere, he'll go to Middlesbrough or some other Championship side.

He's absolute garbage, can't get a game except as a sub on the wing because he's somehow turned into the biggest defensive liability I've seen for a long time. Played on the weekend at left back because Cresswell was injured and scored an own goal which is almost an improvement on his defending before he lost his spot. It's a real shame because he actually looked quite good last season, but this season he's indecisive, uncomfortable on the ball, can't play a 10 yard pass, and bottles every tackle.

Nah, pretty much all our good results have been with Tomkins at RB, Jenko was at fault pretty comprehensively for our loss to Bournemouth which was really early on and never improved. It honestly seems like he made some big mistakes because he was left more exposed from Bilic's progressive football, and just never recovered mentally at all.

Full name is actually USMNT Mens National Soccer Team Freedom Screamin "Don't Treat On Me" Eagles. He should be proud to play for the Red White and Blue, even though he was born in New Jersey.

Either way, Liverpool need another gifted but perpetually injured striker like they need Big Brenda back.
