Transfer discussion thread

[jod23]

Wha you gonna pay him in pizzas?

In grannies I'd assume.

 

[jod23]

I'll remember this when we categorically rule out selling Coutinho at any price.

You read his words though right. Pretty finite.

 

[glenferry23]

Liverpool fans have run out of opposition fans to have shitfights with they decide to fight among themselves.

chef or Jatz can we get a Liverpool vs Liverpool shitfight thread up?

Godwin's Law should be adapted for this board with you around. The longer a discussion goes the probability of a Simpsons reference increases

True. No coming back from that.

Totally different. Sterling then went on to act like an utter twat in forcing his way out. Keita doesnt seem the type.

There's a Liverpool thread for this crap.

 

[pantskyle]

I feel like you could have used frinkiac and liverpooled this up a tad.

There would be literally dozens of examples I could pull out of clubs publicly saying "x player is not for sale under any circumstances", and then going on to sell them shortly after.

I don't blame them, it's 100% the right strategy to be taking and I hope we are this resolute when clubs come knocking for our best players in future. However, with the exception of a small handful of the wealthiest and most powerful clubs in world football, history tells us that every player has a price, particularly for players who indicate a desire to leave their club as by all reports Keita has done.

Not saying Keita's nailed on to leave, but I do think this idea that Leipzig sit in that very small bracket of clubs that are impervious to any offer for any player is a bit of PR fluff, and I do think he has a price. What that is and whether Liverpool or any other club will hit it this summer, who knows.

I think it's also worth noting that Rangnick took exactly the same position with Sadio Mané when he tried to leave RB Salzburg for Southampton in 2014. It took Mané refusing to train or play, but in the end Rangnick caved and the sale went through on deadline day. Same owners. Same manager. Same agent managing a key player they definitively said they weren't going to sell.

Arsenal have submitted an improved £40m bid for Lemar.

RB Leipzig have threatened to report Liverpool for "tapping up" Keita if his agent doesn't stop trying to force a move through

 

[Great8]

Apparently Arsenal are after Cuadrado

 

[chef]

Apparently Arsenal are after Cuadrado

He can't be sold twice in the same window.

 

[Gosha]

Apparently Arsenal are after Cuadrado

Lol FMD imagine. The ex Chelsea players in England would go close to winning the league...

-------------------Cech

Cuadrado----Huth-----Terry-------Bertrand

-------------------Matic?

-------de Bruyne-----------Mata

----Salah--------------------Sturridge

------------------Lukaku

Forgot Ake and probably more.

 

[Magma]

you can be sold as many times as possible, you can't play for more than 2 clubs.

 

[chef]

Haha didn't know that

 

[Magma]

Haha didn't know that

yeah until you're officially registered to a club. you can be registered by 3 clubs and play for 2 of them.

happened with demi. atletico bought him for free and then weeks later sold him to us for 4 mil.

 

[Donnie Darko]

Huddersfield are bringing in too many new faces IMO
They dont want to radically move away from what got them promoted. Chances are they will have a completely new lineup ..
a team that will have no chemistry. Teams like Burnley and Bournemouth understood that you have to keep the team together and maybe add like 2 new players .

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Apparently Everton still owe United 7.5 million for Schniderlin and 7.5 million for Keane.

Does explain why some places are saying 90 million and others 75 million

most teams owe others fees for players they've bought for a while after the transfer. i believe we might still have a payment to swansea for bony to go.

jod23 says its OK though

Wouldn't the Keane fee come to us from Burnley?

 

[pantskyle]

Sportsbet has paid out the Lukaku bets to United but hadn't closed the market, so straight back on.

Whilst that all seems good. I doubt we get Keita.

They bought a new 11 last season too, took them from battling relegation to promotion.

They've bought Mooy, brought brown back, and will be looking to strengthen.
