As if anyone else is going to be stupid enough to get mugged off like we did.

£80m ffs


It's what needed if you want to progress your team into the top 6 regularly. No good being the next Southampton and selling all your first teamers to pool is it.

We'll sell at most 1-2 first teamers a year, and only if they are sold at a huge premium. Good recipe for advancement imo.

Only if you reinvest well, Saints nearly got themselves relegated spending on the Liverpool dough on rubbish under likes of Hughes/Puel/Pellegrino.

True enough. Think our most recent signings have turned out well enough though. Tielemans, Maddison, Ricardo all decent enough for our level. Going to be an interesting summer, still a winger and a cb short and Vardy isn't getting any younger.

Rumours around suggesting we're telling Chelsea they have to beat what utd paid for Maguire to sign Chilwell. :rofl:


As I said before, Ben is a beautiful human being with great character. He is a great technician and a leader in the group. He won't be sold under any circumstances.

He didn't really say that, I was just imagining what he would have said. It's probably quite accurate tho

it likely accurately sums up the character in which Brendan would discuss not selling Chilwell. Great character, might i add.

Liverpool so far:

Out:
- Lovren £10.9m
- Lallana (free)
- Clyne (free)

Combined wages of £270k p/w freed from the wage bill too :hail:

In:
- Tsimikas £11.7m (still to be confirmed)

So far, not bad. Left back cover was always a priority, but now we need to go for a decent CB, winger and possibly CM. I think that's only going to happen if we sell two of Shaqiri/Wilson/Grujic/Karius though.

Not too convinced about this moneyball approach from Liverpool so far, Robertson aside, stick to spending £100Ms on Allisons and Van Dijks.
