I would love to see this happen. We will be competing for the title with this move.
Smart move! I don't think other players did more, think they've all had ups and downs but it's understandable that local boys will always be more liked by the fans, and at least with them there is never that discussion about their price tag.Have emotionally checked out with Pepe to be honest. Past caring. He was my guy for 18 months, but seeing ESR and Saka do more in less time has made me question Pepe a bit. I've ran out of excuses for him.
We would be competing for 8th place with that move, just like we are doing with Pepe (or Pepe on the bench)I would love to see this happen. We will be competing for the title with this move.
He'll have two years left on his contract so either way, a decision of sorts will be made.Unreal hard hitting truth from Carragher, it's just the harsh reality. Think a good summer window for us is depended on us finding a buyer for him, but unfortunately think he is here for the long haul.

Yeah, unfortunately, Carragher is spot on. Pepe has had endless chances to prove himself. It just hasn't worked out and at some level, we have to admit he just isn't good enough.
I’m not involved anymore. He won’t be given opportunities even if playing well and it only takes one bad performance for all the criticism to come back.
The athletic posted a ‘tactical analysis’ piece showing that he was ignored in the build up play and only targeted from long goal kicks yet he still gets the most criticism of any player in a game where we were completely dominated.
Pepe is the new A-M scapegoat so there’s no point defending a player when they reach that status on here. You know it’s over when Jamie Carragher’s opinion is being posted on here. Same guy who put Salah in his top 10 greatest PL strikers lost and left off RvN.
I wish Saka had played, apparently he would have single handedly fixed everything that was wrong with Saturday’s performance.
It goes to extremes in both directions.This has nothing to do with Saka. So you're going to say that Carragher has an agenda against Pepe too? I want to also see Martinelli and Nelson get chances. The fact of the matter is that some of you so badly wanted to defend Pepe from the mob that you felt were overly critical of him that you started to overrate his actual ability. With the way some of you talk about Pepe you would think he was prime Rivaldo. I still say Newcastle version of Ben Arfa was more gifted and fun to watch than Pepe.
What are you talking about? Carragher is an idiot you know. He rated Salah as the 7th best PL striker ever and said TAA should go to the Euros as a central midfielder over James Ward Prowse. This has nothing to do with Saka, if you could ****ing read all I said is that the Liverpool result would have been the same if he played. **** sake.This has nothing to do with Saka.

I'm wrong. Thought he'd been here a year longer than he has I think it was a five year deal so he's still got three years with us from the summer. I'm not sure that helps us tbh.Did he only sign a 4 year deal? Could have sworn it was 5 years.
If so probably means we could take a lower fee which gives us a bit more wiggle room.
