Now obviously that's not the sequence of events but it speaks to the general strategy of buying at a certain level where there's value.

It's going to be interesting to see what we do with this lad in the squad all of a sudden 6 months early.

Get him in and play him in the league cup final instead of minamino anyway.
I'd play him with Minamino and see if they hit it off.
Anyway, might be too early - you just know Klopp's gonna have him on tea-making duty for a few weeks until he's ready.

Some of the Porto persuasion seem very pissed off at the price.

Well it seems spurs offered more and we've shafted them cos the player is clearly going no matter what and they've been forced to accept the fee over the never never.

The 12mil add ons are probably simple enough to get but they help us meet ffp in this fiscal year and spread the over 3 years risk out.

We might have made good deals last summer but installments on jota and thaigo were also made.

I still fully expect to see minamino and Phillips leave to offset this 30 odd mil initial fee.

Hopefully medical goes OK now.
 
Not really. What your saying is the guy has zero value in that case. So do you think he should or shouldn’t get a new contract? Because by that logic no, he shouldn’t so you’d just let him go on a free and retire?

No, I'm saying he as zero value to me if I was the buying party. Maybe you should word your questions more carefully ;)


PS... you do realise I was winding you up right? You seem to have gone a bit serious <laugh>

You don’t think I know you by now? ;)

Nah was just an honest question to Saint asking what his value is or what we could get. If shoe was on other foot, would we as fans be happy to spend £100m on a 29 year old who was arguably best player in the world.

If answers no, then surely we can’t expect other clubs to be thinking he’s worth that?

Not every club have our recruitment criteria. For example, Man Utd have never been bothered about spunking cash on someone that passed they prime, Cavani and C.Ronaldo being recent examples.

I think the likes of PSG, Barcelona, Real Madrid, etc are the types that would buy him but none if them are going to be in the market for him atm

Suspect we're stuck with him; great for the team and us fans, not so much for the books (although I imagine her generates a fair bit of income for us too)

Stuck with him is a bit harsh <laugh>
 
West Ham are interested in Raphinha. No disrespect but think he can do a lot better. Will be looking at top clubs imo

After Spurs made us move for Diaz, will this make us move for Raphinha?

No.

West sham are the club that were too mean to pay 25mil for lingard who scored a few goals for them.
They don't pay big wages

I cannot see that interesting raphinha or how agent at all.

I can see an arsenal or spurs trying this on.
 
Just reading about Diaz and feel like this can’t be accurate. 1, I feel like someone costing nearly £50m is gonna be earning more than that. And 2, Nat Phillips surely does not earn £64k a week <laugh>



Meanwhile, Liverpool’s impressive transfer dealings have gained more praise after Diaz’s wages came to light and according to Portuguese outlet SIC, the winger will earn £56,000-a-week.

For context, that means the Colombia international will earn less than Kostas Tsimikas (£60,000-a-week), Adrian (£58,000-a-week), Nat Phillips (£64,000-a-week) and Divock Origi (£60,000-a-week).
