Apparently Poch has urged for more transfers in January.
This list is bonkers! And only a few have featured as far as I know.
Add the 20 or so the year before, and it's madness! Getting so little out of so much is incredible!

As Gallagher is a youth product, selling him gives total profit on their books and so more room for manoeuvre with incoming transfers. They'll really have to consider a decent offer that might come in for him.
He really cannot be judged much on displays in blue this season, but his busy work for Palace really indicates a player of promise who could be used well by Ange.
Sarr, Gallagher, Bissouma and Bentancur as midfield options is a strong list.
I don't see him as enough of a threat creatively/goal wise, hustle/press type, minor upgrade on Skipp?
Don't see him as cheap to buy, or cheap wages, think this is "yeah, we could be interested but only if everything aligned", i.e. Chelsea needed to sell, he wanted to leave, price was right
He does it pretty much every gameAnother Sterling dive in the penalty area goes unpunished
It's now getting to the point where I'm going to be rooting for Liverpool to win everything!I bet they win the League Cup
