Transfer discussion thread

[ADL9798]

Rose has apologised already for being a very naughty boy.

We've fined the campaigner, now that's hopefully the end of it. He's at the best club he can possibly be at, with the best supporters, the best training facilities, the best team mates and soon the best ground. The campaigner will just have to put up with earning less

Haha what were you saying about delusion?

 

[go you pups]

if it does indeed turn out that coutinho didnt put in a request then a lot of questions need to be asked of sky and their intent.

Happens all the time

Wouldn't be the first

 

[Gak Attack]

Just shit timing by Coutinho. You have a long term contract, you have to give a little if you want the club to sell as they have absolutely no obligation to do so, he should have handed it in much earlier. Have no real issue with him being sold for a large fee but at a time when we are able to get decent replacements. Hopefully he is professional for the next 6 or 12 months.

 

[Jatz]

What do you think you guys would accept for him?

I genuinely don't even know. Do you know what the mooted fee was?

I know all the Chelsea fans are unimpressed but he'd do a job for you as depth.

 

[glenferry23]

More often than not, when the big boys around Europe come knocking, they usually get who they want.

Unfortunate timing by Coutinho but it seems somewhat inevitable. Wouldn't surprise me if Barca bought both Coutinho and Dembele.

Not disagreeing with this. I just don't know why we would buy him when we had perfect depth already.

Cout possibly thought Pool would help him after he informed them he wanted out but they said no and force him to hand in a transfer request which is why its delaying. Pool are wasting a lot of time squabbling instead of finding solutions.

Barca are bidding now because Neymar was due loyalty payments in early August, shortly after the date passed he left for PSG.

 

[typeclub]

The latest from Duncan:


Looks like Pool have set the asking price. Barca should just pay up now, but they will probably lowball again and push the PR.

 

[go you pups]

I like Erikson, but seriously no where near barca quality.

So why is he now linked to them?

In other news: Keita has asked to leave leipseg

Leipzig or leip?

Non-LFC fans right now

Na, moreso this

If that's the case then Cout is nowhere near Alaves quality.

Interesting that Pearce has gone back on his last tweet and now said that the request is real. Isn't he one of the best for LFC info?

Always a bit of this going on



FWIW we were the same with Bale, just Levy bought before we sold him so we weren't priced out of deals

Inaki Williams is another possibility.

Wouldn't bother

He's a nice talent, but nothing really different to what you already have in Origi, while Mane is far superior. (Williams can play both as a striker and wing-forward, similar player to Balde Keita IIRC, just a bit raw still)

He has a stupidly high release clause too of either 50 or 100m Euros, but his achievements in his career do not reflect what it'd cost to buy him.

In regards to Cout, aren't Pool being linked with Lanzini from West Ham as his replacement if he did leave? I've seen that one pop up for weeks now.

If Liverpool were Europa League standard then he'd be a great get, but I'm not sure if he's ready for them at the moment. Needs another decent year.

I'd imagine we should be looking at him too FWIW. Plays a number of roles and would be good depth. Good chance of being a proven high quality PL performer

Pool are holding him against his will. His fam said he tried to tell them to let him go but they're not budging and have forced him to hand in a transfer request. They're trying to save money on loyalty bonus and trashing his name instead of focus on getting it done and finding replacement.

Lol.

Pretty sure we're actually just trying to keep our best players at the club, like any club would do.

I Lold too jodwah

We know how it feels like in this situation.

Held against his will pppffftttt you're bound to your contract you signed.......

It's all finally about to kick off with our 3 signings imminent.

Davison Sanchez the CB from Ajax
Pape Chiek Diop young spanish CM from Celta Vigo (can you get a more spanish name than that)
Gazzianga from Southampton to come in as our 3rd GK

Ross Barkley will drag on a bit longer and will only happen if Everton accept 25-30m

If we sign this CB then Wimmer is gone then? Kinda disappointed there, Wimmer was competent, just never got enough opportunity.

 

[chef]

I genuinely don't even know. Do you know what the mooted fee was?

I know all the Chelsea fans are unimpressed but he'd do a job for you as depth.

Opening bid of £15m you guys appparently want a bit over £30m.

Sounds like he'd be keen on it and we know he and Kante play well together. Its not the glamorous transfer that we Chelsea fans want but Contes the one pushing this so we'll just have to trust him.

 

[chef]

Not disagreeing with this. I just don't know why we would buy him when we had perfect depth already.

I guess neither of the two depth CMs wanted to be depth.

Neymar was only made official last week. I am sure Coutinho was waiting for that deal to happen to make sure Barcelona are cashed up enough to buy him.

It's easy to say he could've handed in his transfer request weeks ago but was there a club out there who could afford to buy him weeks ago and who he would actually go to? Coutinho doesn't seem like the "I'll play in France" kind of guy to go to PSG, no one in England, Bayern wouldn't spend £100M+ on a footballer, Real Madrid have no fit for him/are perfection, Atletico have a transfer ban. Barcelona has sold Neymar now, hence the transfer request from Coutinho. That's my take from the late-in-the-window (still 3 weeks left tbf) transfer request

 

[CFC_JP]

I just find it funny how Zidane, Jod, Faith, AFL, Jod, Cooldude, CFC, Sozabarus and Jod tried so hard to convince themselves Coutinho loved Liverpool and there was no way he'd even contemplate walking out on them. Despite everyone else telling them the indications were that he clearly would, their level of delusion never let up. In a way it was admirable. Was hilarious when reality finally dawned. An episode to rival MD36 for sure

I'll wait and see how Coutinho conducts himself in the next 3 weeks before I concede I was wrong.

go you pups I don't think Wimmer goes. We need 6 CBs with CCV no more than 6th choice.

If Wimmer does go we need to sign another young one. Feel for him as he does deserve to be a starter but he has JV in front of him. It's what Poch talks about with it being hard for us to convince signings to come in and be a backup

 

[wadistance]

Where my squeaky clean Barca fans at?

Why that many?

Unless Dier plays holding mid/right back, Poch would rather a small squad than a deep one

Liverpool quoting 150M makes me annoyed we got so screwed over with the Payet transfer.

Good luck getting that though....

 

[FAITH]

The latest from Duncan:

Its what I've got him priced as well.
In between neymar and luk/pogb

 

[wadistance]

I think that’s kind of the point

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

i do find it funny that pool fans wanted keita and vvd to hand in requests and sulk and were so sure cout wouldnt do either delicious

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Its what I've got him priced as well.
In between neymar and luk/pogb

lol 150m for cout can i have your dealers number you're on some good shit

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

as i said real are upfront about being campaigners barca try and display this golden image with messi when reality is they are worse

 

[go you pups]

lol 150m for cout can i have your dealers number you're on some good shit

Problem is inferior players are being quoted at around the price Coutinho should be worth, or far more like them two overhyped French kids, so no doubt the price on Coutinho should be high also

 

[RPCB]

So you have Coutinho priced between Neymar and Ronaldo/Bale?

 

[Zidane98]

Isco signs a new contract with a 700 million euro release clause.

It's being called an "anti-sheikh" clause lol
