Transfer Rumours Transfer Rumours thread

I used to feel like that the morning after eating a Dominos pizza. I'd feel sluggish and wake up with a 'hangover from hell' feeling.

 

They want Coutinho to manage Barcelona? Not sure he has his badges TBH

 

Lactose? Yogurt has high levels most cheeses actually have very low levels. More the soft cheeses that have more in them.

 

A kopite who writes for the Anfield Wrap, bound to be #legit

 

As #legit as all those Catalan sources saying a deal is almost done?

 

Not read them mate, Astro tagged me into that post.

 

Former Liverpool and Arsenal winger Jermaine Pennant agrees deal with non-league side Billericay Town

 

Sorry, wouldn't want to stand between you and astro in full volley mode.
Appears that the majority of reports about the price tag, "terms agreed" sort of stuff is just recycled from Barca-sympathetic sources.
Who knows what's going on, really? Journos aren't paid to be right - if they were their kids would be barefoot.

 

arcelona will offer Liverpool both Rafinha and Denis Suarez in order to land Philippe Coutinho this summer.
The La Liga giants are desperate to land the Brazil ace as they think it could lead to Neymar staying at the club.

Don Balon claim Barca are ready to offer the swap deal to the Reds in order to sign target Coutinho.

 

Wrong suarez lol.

 

I think the interest is definitely genuine, but I can only see them making a concerted effort to sign him if Neymar opts to join PSG

 

I first thought Luis Suarez !

 

cool thanks.

it would be a lactose intolerance yes if it is one.

 

3 grand a week which equals to just under 160k a year. How a non league football club can afford that on top of Paul Konchesky and Jamie O'Hara is madness.

 

given guillem ballbag was adamant they were not interested i think it is 100% real interest but they are playing the long game. They know where the player is at.

The thing is you need to look at the lad himself in terms of attitude.

He's a worker but he's a quiet lad, not one for the limelight so IMO thats why it took him so long to establish for brazil and why we even got a sniff of him. I think the pressures of barca need a guy more able for it and thats why barca didn't go in before now.

I genuinely think they won't bid a real amount this summer. I feel they've pulled out the usual party tricks in the media and the guys not opened his mouth in reply which suggests its window dressing for the barca fans due to the neymar stuff.

You can bet your arse if barca are working on anything its to convince neymar senior to shut the **** up and stop agitating for the son to move... neymar junior isn't the one wanting to leave spain.... IMO you look at that and you could see barca giving neymar a new deal and writing in 500mil as a release clause.


All this goes back again to my point about people will be shocked when coutinho plays no 8 this year if i am right. I think barca will want to see that not risk it not working and will be back in sniffing next summer of the season i expect comes to pass.

IMO every prem team needs to be developing their LFC counter strategy right now of man marking this guy to shut the supply off. IF he's let free for ten games at the start before someone does that we will rip the place up.

 

nice deal for a nothing player isn't it.

They must have nice gates to pay it.... or do they get a trickle down of some level

 

I always liked Pennant with us. Gave us pace when at the time we had Kuyt and Crouch upfront. Never scored a lot but i think he knew it was massive opportunity to play for us and did well with it.

Now he's a journeyman who should not be getting 3 grand a week and ruining a football club

 

he hadn't much end product TBF, he really was a making do signing at the time yet he cost a massive 7mil for the time. he joined right after the CL 2006... it was so odd. we had a CL and an FA cup and it was like some moron in the club was telling rafa he needed english players. even to make the quota.

you will note his arrive coincided with us not winning a thing after... not his fualt but it shows what was going on at the club and where we were headed

 

just writing anyone down now.. all we learn is who press think are **** for barca... the off casts

 

Sky Sports Spanish football expert Guillem Balague has tweeted on the current situation regarding Neymar and Barcelona.

His next tweets - following the one below - read: "Barcelona contacted Mbappe and have an agreement with Coutinho’s agent. But Liverpool are determined not to sell. Barca need Neymar’s money for anything.

“Everything Barca are doing now smells of desperation. They have been reactive (not proactive) for too long. Even Mbappe contact arrives late.

"The offer Barca took to Liverpool for Coutinho (€80m) is something they cannot pay if in an unexpected twist Neymar decides to stay.”
