    Trouble is in this day and age is that someone will be willing to pay an unrealistic amount.

    It'll mean that, at the end of the day, clubs like us don't really get much say in it all.

    He might be ... could be joining Liverpool along with whoever has a good season for you boys <whistle> ... but the likelihood is that he will have signed a new extended contract with us which will allow us to demand £50 million plus for him ... otherwise we keep him for another season ....

    The reality is that apart from perhaps Barca, Real and PSG, every other football club in the world is 'vulnerable' to player poaching - it's just fans that have differing levels of delusion ... even Man United are vulnerable as the Ronaldo transfer showed ... will Coutinho go to Barca? who knows? ...if you are not a Liverpool fan, why on earth wouldn't he? ...

    So you do what you can and you enjoy the moment. <ok>

    The second one was apparently a chairman at Pompey at one time.

    Problem being, the bloke didn't seem to actually exist <rofl> but rather was another alias for Chanrai... oh how excited the blue few got when Al Farj came in with talk of huge investment <laugh>

    Saints fans quickly coined the nick name Al Mirage :biggrin:

    I knew that accent he uses was fake!

  8. As I said before, I'd settle for Kane, Alli, Rose, Dier, Eriksen, Lamela, Vertonghen, Son, Dembele, Alderwiereld, Trippier and Lloris for one Sissoko.

    How many **** ups has your chairman made in comparison?

    Let's get real here. 99% of chairman are businessmen. They're in this to make money, not from some great abiding love for football - or soccer!

    If you think any differently, you're deluding yourself.
