If he had consistently scored the same amount of goals as Lukheskey you could have a point, as it is you just don't. What difference does it make how much money they have, will it make him a better player or worth more?
Barca don't make spoof bids, they want the player, but are playing a game with their tactics, This will come down to the player, if he chucks in a transfer request it moves on to the final stage.
The 'difference' is they want him they'll pay more. Sheesh - even their own papers are saying they'll have to pay over the odds, just like we did for Carroll. This is the chain, mate.
Short answer is that it makes all the difference. The long answer consists of the short answer with all the justification and logical reasoning to go with it.
Sky sources understand Liverpool have rejected Barcelona’s second bid for Philippe Coutinho. We understand Barca’s latest offer was €85m (£77m) up front plus €15m (£13m) in add-ons and it was immediately turned down. Liverpool have reiterated their stance that Coutinho is not for sale and they now consider the matter closed. £77m up front and £13m in add ons. **** off Barca, you've just received almost £200m for Neymar
If he chucks in a transfer request he'll go imo. You won't knock back £100m+ to keep a player who's openly told you he wants to **** off. Won't happen.
If they can get him for £80-£90m they will probably take him and train him as a replacement for Iniesta over the next year or so, that will still leave them with a fair wedge to get a Neymar replacement.
If the stuff regarding Barcelona expecting the deal to be done on Friday is true, I reckon they've had some indication from the player's agent that they'll force it through.
Oh, that thing again. Thought you had some info there. Luis threw his teddy out the cot in 2013. Played his best season ever for us after that and nearly won us the league. That was WC season too.
Well they can't get him for £90m: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/premierleague/index.html How is it the third bid though?
Nah nothin official just yous lot on here lmao Sorry So fed of this **** - tbh totally agree with pretty much everything you have said donga It nothing like us with Southampton However sadly it is the way of the 'sport' I find myself thinking I going to find me a nice team in whatever the Vauxhall conference passes for now as this **** getting disgusting Unfortunately prob can't do that
I really fail to see how the amount of money a club has received increases the value/worth of a player they may want to buy, does he magically become a better player?
The player's agent agreed a contract and promised Barca a lot of things. Never happened at £72m, and isn't happening at £90m. Unless FSG fold (quite possible) there's no reason to sell, none whatsoever.
If we are to accept it is a third bid, then going off that article the first bid (not mentioned) must have been lower than £72m.
