    Mo Salah has scored the same amount of goals as Neymar Jr. this season- despite costing more than five times less!

    Goals scored in all competitions so far this season:

    Mo Salah - 24
    Neymar - 24
    Lionel Messi - 23
    Cristiano Ronaldo - 16
    Kylian Mbappe - 15

    LOL @ PSG

    Maybe about time you did?

    Unless Poch has plans I do find it odd that he's prepared to stick when those around him are strengthening. Let's be honest you need to strengthen, surely?

    It's all media bollocks anyway as Poch might just be keeping quiet.

    The reason we're getting linked to every player on the planet is purely due to selling Coutinho. Usually Klopp is quiet about his transfer dealings - not like Wenger or Jose. Pair of idiots telling the world their plans and talking about other clubs players in press conferences <doh>

    Maybe we should but who are we going to get in January without having our pants pulled? We need our injured players back more than new players. No one available and good enough to do the job required, so no point.

    Obviously the media will try to spend your money for you like they try to dismantle our squad on our behalf.

    That's a myth imo, there are plenty of players available. The PL has such a pull that you could easily attract.

    I know it's not that simple and the scouts etc. have to do their ting. But with the money the PL brings players will come given half the chance.


    I just never see Spurs linked with anyone in comparison to the other clubs in the mini PL. (that's top 6 as the rest are ****e - it's basically a mini league for us and the rest are just happy to stay in the PL and earn their dollar)

    I dint think anyone is after him but do you really think that's the fee? No offense but coming from Lester I'd say more like 50m tops

    Good player, but he’d have to work a lot harder than he sometimes does atm to interest MP.

    Plus, Leicester are gonna ask some astronomical fee for him.

    Pretty much the same reasons I wasn't too keen when we were linked, does he graft enough, class act in the final 3rd though no doubt

    Yeah couldn't agree more, he's so lazy.

    Whoever buys him will have to shake that Leicester attitude out of him.

    Puel has said he won't sell for less than 100mil. Bet Mahrez is happy about that.... not <laugh>

    ... some clubs will pay £75 million for an average Dutch centre-half who's done nothing of note in the game in his career, mate ... never mind a former EPL title winner, PFA Player of the year, African player of the year, currently at the height of form and whose success the likes of Mo Salah are trying to emulate ... however unlikely it will be to match it, you have to say <ok> <whistle>

    Silly money. Nobody’s gonna pay that, or anywhere close.

    VVD is far more important for us than Mahrez would be... it's not that difficult to grasp mate.

    Of course we over paid but we needed a CB and he's exactly the type we needed.

    That's the idea ... but then again ... who'd have thought an average Dutch centre-half would go for £75 million ...<laugh>
