have you seen Trafford play? I reckon a few people need to relax a bit and not piss all over the player nlunless they have we got 12 for ward, were leicester doping us?
Some people are so bitter or down the rabbit hole that sense goes out the window. Forget Kompany and his association with City, it's the Burnley owners who are paying the money and i can't see them wanting to help the Arabs out with a few quid Another way of looking at it is that Kompany was at the club so long he might just have good insight on this young lad and have great hopes for him so got in when the chance came up.
That was kind of the point of my post mate; I'll be happy if we get big money from the Saudi league. I'm with you in loving Thiago. However, I would also love to see the industrial midfield return and Thiago isn't that type of player. Yes, he could make an impact from the bench or in certain games but he's an asset on large wages too.
personally I'd be as happy seeing a high energy midfield with class also. only time will tell is macallister and Szoboszlai can bring that
I don't think the wages matter, all good senior pros are on good wages but they are also the type of player who know how to get over the line. I think we'd be nuts to get rid with Milner gone and Hendo not capable of much.
What if selling him and freeing up those wages means we can bring another midfielder in the fits the industrial midfield approach better?
so where and when does this 200k a week player play for us then? europa? last 30mins? home games v Lower half?
If someone comes in with a good offer then I think we’d be happy to accept if thiago wants to go. Given his age, injury record and contract situation. But wouldn’t be actively trying to force him out.
the thing is you don't really cos I've never denied his class on the ball at all. i question what klopp will do with him
There are plenty of options especially with the new players. I don't go along with this rhetoric of him not being able to play in a Klopp team.
He’s the second keeper they’ve signed from city now in space of 2 years. City very very good at selling their young players. Sold 3/4 of them to Southampton for good fees with buy back prices/sell on clauses after one of their staff went to saints. Some would say it’s a conspiracy
I don't see us signing anyone else without selling first. We've not got many that would free up funds (that we're prepared to sell)
