BR0B0T Hoop Blah s been at?
Shaw, Smalling and Jones could be good, relatively cheap, signings for someone this summer though.
Jones is literally always injured...
68 league games in the last 5 seasons
i.e. 13 games per season
Shaw really hasn't been the same since
breaking his leg (i still rate him tho)
Yeah, maybe a fair shout on Jones and I can't remember him having any serious injuries, just a run of niggles and less significant knocks he hasn't come back from very quickly. That's a bit more worrying than a year out with a bad break or ACL but you wonder how much it's a weakness and much it's avoidable.
Shaw is still very young and a very good prospect. I wonder if there's a physiological issue there though, but under a manager who can get more out of him you'd think he could bounce back from this season quite easily. Liverpool need a left back and you could imagine Klopp sorting him out (can't imagine it happening though).
