    Fofana starting to whinge about Leicester pricing him out of his 'dream move'.

    Probably gonna lose my bet with Fosse. Picked the wrong player!

    Don't believe everything you read Libs ... the lad signed his new contract knowing that it meant we'd insist he stayed for at least this season ...unless we got daft money

    I don't but as I said before I've seen a lot of this and there's no smoke without fire. You're obviously some way apart in valuation so Chelsea have asked his agent to cause a fuss to try and help it along.

    Not sure the contract means much. Virgil signed a 6 year deal not long before trying to force his move to Liverpool. Just means you'll get more for him.

    I think you will get silly money btw. New Chelsea owner seems to be all over place with transfer dealings.

    Yeah, he is.

    Any chance you could be linked with McShit himself instead?

    He could keep Winks company in a cess pool of depressing mediocrity.

    Indeed we might ... but not for less than £80 million ... will be a new record fee for a defender ...

    So you were wrong when you said they wouldn't sell him or Maddison?

    70 million Jesus he's not even worth half, so I'd be delighted mate. There's better players for a quarter of that out there.

    Dani Alves had the distinct advantage of also being able to defend ...

    Sucky getting desperate. After another poor performance from TAA, he's on the next morning trying to convince everybody that he's actually really good <laugh>

    This narrative that TAA is rubbish is laughable tbh . His defensive frailities are mainly due to the role he has in our system rather than his personal failings .

    That's fair enough but it does work two ways. many Liverpool fans seem to want to suck him off due to his assists being higher than other RB's and they are also due to the role he has in your system. As a footballer he's clearly very good but i'd honestly not have him in the top 3 of English RB's based on defensive ability alone (I would have him in the team though and just accept the positives outweigh the negatives!)

    James is a better all round player than Trent but in Klopp's system Trent is fantastic.

    So it's easy to see why Pool fans love him, yet non-Pool fans would likely pick to sign James if given the choice of the two.
