Toni Martinez

That sounds like the stage name of Dewsbury factory packer Arthur Picklewick when appearing in the north of England clubs signing a selection of easy listening favourites.

West Ham have signed two goalkeepers to replace Adrian San Miguel - Roberto Jimenez from Espanyol and David Martin (son of Alvin) from Millwall.  Both are 33 and were free transfers.

ETA - Fernandes and Perez have been punted to Mainz and Alaves respectively for undisclosed fees.

Liverpool Football Club has today thanked Daniel Sturridge and Alberto Moreno for their outstanding contributions to the club and wishes them all the very best for the future.

The pair are set to leave the Reds this summer upon the expiry of their current contracts – and Jürgen Klopp has placed on record his gratitude for the roles they’ve played since arriving at Anfield.

Sturridge moved to Merseyside from Chelsea in January 2013 and established himself of one of the finest goalscorers in the game, ultimately netting 67 times in 160 appearances for Liverpool.

Moreno, meanwhile, was signed from Sevilla in August 2014 and has represented the Reds on 141 occasions, with three goals to his name.

Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com: “The most important words to say to these two remarkable players is ‘thank you’.

“They were here when I arrived as manager and during that period they - as much as anyone - helped to establish us as a team that would be heading in the right direction. Without them we wouldn’t be the team and club we are in this moment.

'Full of life, full of energy' - Moreno's five years with Liverpool

“Alberto is a person whose personality is reflected in how he plays. Full of life, full of energy, always positive. An unbelievable character who is always willing to give all of himself for the team.

“I know this season, and the end of the last, maybe the minutes on the pitch he would have wanted and deserved were not there, but his contribution did not diminish. How he was in training kept the entire group on their toes. Albie is world class and I know he will be back in the Spain national team in the not too distant future.

“Daniel has earned the right to be considered a modern-day Liverpool great, I would think. He came to the club while we were trying to rebuild and re-establish ourselves. Some of the goals he has scored for Liverpool were so, so, so important.

Daniel Sturridge, a finisher supreme for Liverpool

“He is one of the best finishers I have ever seen in my life. He scores goals you think could and should not be possible.

“Again, like many players in my squad, Daniel has had to be patient and contribute when asked during games, but even this season he has played a vital role.

“What maybe is missed on the outside of the club by many is what a great leader Daniel is in our dressing room. He is smart, confident and not afraid to speak up when he thinks there is something that needs adapting to help the team. He has been great with many of the younger players also, so he has been so important to our progression here.

“I wish both players nothing but success and joy wherever their journey takes them next. Whoever has them next will be so lucky to have these outstanding personalities in their ranks.

“We will miss them of course, but we can say farewell with the best words possible: Guys, you leave as European Champions.”

Everyone at Liverpool Football Club wishes Daniel and Alberto all the very best for their futures. They will always be a part of the LFC Family.

Good Luck to them, Sturridge never recovered from his injury problems while Moreno was never really suited to any Liverpool system as he is never a left back in a back 4 formation, he needs to play as a wingback or a left Midfielder in a 3 centre back formation to be effective as his pace and crossing are excellent but his defensive positioning and awareness is poor.  

In other news, Kylian Mbappe has asked for a transfer from PSG amid interest from Real Madrid....

Moreno of course had the best spell of his Liverpool career and only actually lost his place when he got injured.

Remember when Klopp picked Kalamity Karius as his first choice keeper?

Jesus wept and so did Klopp after last year's CL final!

A truly horrific and very costly error of judgement.

Hmm, exactly how many players are going to the Madrilenos next season. The powers that be in La Liga really need to take a look at how they are funding these transfers.
