Welcome to LFC, Manolo Gabbiadini.

Please snap out of it, FSG isn't gonna sanction mega spending like Manu, chelsea, city etc

Possibly we will be more like arsenal path of spent the cing years
In the past, rafa been accused of "dividing the team" for team not blending amongst themselves, Spanish players camps, English players section etc, it's refreshing to note didi clearing that notion.

Every team will have some key senior player that may not see eye to eye with the manager. The manager can't satisfy everyone and he is not the manager vying players popularity contest.

Some seniors will vet their fustrations esp no game time & no further opportunities to play and if they are sold, they might cash in by 'tell all' of their unhappiness while being sidelined.

That dude who left (diouf), Balo still does not blame themselves but are quite unhappy at Liverpool. Sometimes a jab or 2 at the managers for not handling their careers that well. (You don't even hear Alonso speaking ill of Rafa or blaming him, but we all know fans do love conclusion & conspiracy)

Anyway, no game for Liverpool (& most clubs) until international week is done. I can't help to think we missed out dele alli (in his own words confirmed LFC fan and has gerrard as his inspiration), he isn't even19 yet & established to be a quite a decent player himself)

Yet he goes invisible in many other games, especially away games. We might have overpaid for him, but I accept that is the going rate these days for players of his level which is why Van Dijk will be well worth the 50M whoever ends up paying it.

Not that I'm complaining, but I don't think he is someone I want leading our midfield week in week out if we have any aspirations beyond just challenging for top 4. He is average, maybe slightly above average, a nice squad player. Just looking at how well Piotr Zielinski is doing at Napoli this season, I'm bumped we missed out on such a good young player who was sold for much less than what we paid for Wijnaldum.
