I think its fantastic, totally unique, i am not a fan of the new wembley or Arsenals new stadium.
The potential for increasing the capacity in the future is great as well.
Made up with it meself.

I'd just like to take this chance to praise our new American owners, especially given all the cynicism and apprehension that inevitably came with their arrival.

The job they have done with the new stadium designs prove to me that they will look after the club well. They had to build a new stadium, but the way they decided they didnt like the Bowl design and said Liverpool deserved better was a good sign. The plans released show that they want us to be the best off the pitch as well as on. Well done George and Tom.

Don't know what some of you are on about, but that stadium looks fantastic.

Remember that it is the fans that made Kop what it is. Imagine what the fans can make of something like what the pictures show.

Have faith, and believe that LFC are seriously challenging the title for the best club in the world on all grounds

I'm more than happy with it to be honest. The Kop looks fantastic from those rather cheap looking pictures, the design is unique and thats vital for me because I didn't want a similar stadium to Arsenal and the capacity is hoping to be high 60'000's when its completed, depending on Merseytravel.

Very amateurish set of pictures, i'm not too sure on it, maybe a realistic virtual tour would help. I hope we push the Council now, so that the capacity can be increased whilst we build the stadium, build it right first time, i hope we are not thinking of increasing capacity a year or so after completion.

I have just watched a clip on the BBC website of an interview with Parry. He said he hoped that by the time it is built it would have a capacity in the high 70 thousands. So i guess those corners will be filled in anyway.

I think it looks fantastic. Unique and a standout. I think the KOP looks ominous and intimidating (especially to the other keeper

). i agree with st.Mick that the new owners have been on the ball and understand the special nature of the fans. This is an improvement on what we were going to get.

Not to keen on it myself, if thats the best they can come up with then i would rather stay at Anfield.

I'm very impressed with the new stadium design and it's miles ahead of the original design. Assuming that we do get permission to extend it then it will look fantastic with the corners filled in. The steep banking on the new Kop will no doubt provide the visiting teams with a massive wall of noise and the European nights will hopefully be amazing.

The design is certainly light years ahead of the other off the shelf bowl designs that teams are going for these days but the one concern I do have is will the stadiums looks date very quickly? You only have to look at some buildings that were designed in the 70's & 80's that were seen as futuristic at the time but they can look very dated nowadays.

I'm gonna be sorry to see the current stadium go but I can't wait to see this one built it looks as though it'll be fucking awesome.

we want a players tunnel in the middle.

Prefer the inside to the outside, but I suppose we have to move with the times.

Looks great, need more pics and an arial view to visualise it better.

Love all that glass, cant wait to plant me tomatoes behind it.
