Phillips is 27 next (or now) 45 million is way too much. Firpo amd moreno we are stuck with or will make a loss shifting them on. By the time we pay what we owe on them and pay them off. Bamford is not worth much as he's a sicknote. Meslier i would sell as i feel there is better out there for less money.
The one I will miss is Robin Koch, always given everything, played out of position for most of his tenure with us, rest ain’t that bothered about after seeing them just go through the motions, yes Philips your included in that.
kante is 31, Fernandinho 37. Modern dms can play at a high level into their 30s. Also, The very top clubs aren’t bothered about turning a profit and will pay for proven talent. Kp doesn’t turn 27 until December. He’s in his prime. A ‘lost’ year might have knocked a few quid off his value but personally I think 50m is about right. For all this ‘englands player of the year’ nonsense (voted online no doubt by Leeds fans) he’s a hell of a good footballer if played in his correct position. I just think that West Ham slapping a silly figure on rice has given some fans blinkers in terms of his worth. I think he’d do well at city… think his game might suit Liverpool better but he’s an asset to any top side. Guess Newcastle might break the bank for him. So scummers for 30 mill it is
Pontus can’t wait for the final whistle and give the likes of Orta and co the bird and a wave goodbye.
i think I’ve used that line myself in the past but I’m man enough to accept that I was wrong… he’s a regular England international and wanted by a host of top clubs. So I’m not sure what top level is.
Cardiff can’t afford Drameh, why would go to Liverpool and be even further away from a first team place, particularly as Llorente and Koch will be gone, him cooper an struijk will be the first choice central defenders.
Right going to watch the first 15 mins from Goodison before switching to Villa Park. Jeez we need things to go our way tonight.
