& Pochettino don't need 3 years to build his team, isn't it

AVB built it for him

I like their confidence, swagger. Their bigger test is when they play against top tier clubs

Needed a penalty save and a last minute injury time winner against West Ham.

Went behind early but managed to claw back a narrow 1-2 win against AEL from Cyprus.

Now leading 4-0 against a newly promoted QPR stuck at the bottom of the league playing with a back 3 of Caulker, Rio Ferdinand (35) and Richard Dunne (34). Impressive scoreline and performance but you can't say Pochettino is already done building his team. Everyone knew Eriksen and Lamela are quality, problem is the managers before Poch weren't able to get the best out of them.

today kinda busy... lipoting in and ready to curse he scmus

LEL, against QPR? try to come back with same comment after Soton or Everton.

Lamela now with 4 assists in 2 games. Not too bad for a supposed flop eh?

Credit where credit is due, but I will only comment after their game against mid table teams.

Wow who is this Will Buckley from Sunderland. He is giving the Manoor backline a runaround.

So anyone else besides Balotelli is Liverpool bound?

Really expect BR to shut up shop on transfer with the signing of Balotelli...I am sure we still have money to spend, but wouldn't mind we do some business in January in case we need a bit of freshening up....And the inclusion of Balo, my hope is that Borini stay with us for 1 more season, as they are teammates in the national squad, would be intriguing to see if they click for Liverpool. Borini after all is still a good young prospect....and if he is wanted by Sunderland for 14million, I think Gus Poyet have seen enough to be willing to shell out that kind of money, without even negotiating the fee.....I'd definitely choose Borini over Etoo....

With Moreno in the squad, defensively, we should be more solid and steady this season....with Manquillo on rightback, I expect us to cut out crosses from the flanks, and hopefully SG and Lucas can offer more protection centrally....certainly, we should increase our option in attack - with 2 young fullbacks and 3 back tracking attacking midfielders - Markovic, Lallana and Coutinho....we should press opposition harder and kept the ball in opposition half, which means Lovren need to cut out high balls and close down on counter attacking channel and make crucial interception....

Overall a thoroughly satisfying transfer window, definitely more efficient than Manu at lesser the amount, Moreno> Rojo anytime....

Eto'o?

He is out after the almost confirm signing of Balotelli

Sign Reus in Jan transfer?

Sunderland

Nice, mid-table team draw

Maybe only a backup GK to go...Romero...

Another week of teasing for mid table team fans!

Please go check the current table standing... Liverpool is midtable now.. they are not!

LvG should just ask BR how to use 3-5-2 formation, he is literally degrading the formation..
