Yeah it's prob marginally higher than last bid but all about the never never. 113 rising to 118 was on sky and I would take that. Not a penny under 100mil up front imo, with add one to be gimmies, 50 games for Barca the highest threshold imo
This is a great stance for the club, and fairest of play to the owners for taking it... If Coutinho has anything but an outstanding season we've lost out on tens of millions **** it though, as long as we add to the squad before the window shuts it shows we mean business
So who is to be believed... Echo, sky and BBC Echo seems to report this 80odd figure with 30+mil in add ons. The others call it 113 I presume the "nationsls" are reporting what Barca are saying.
Didn't we release a statement saying we felt the last bid was the final one and the transfer is closed?
As I've said... if Barca make a proper offer he can go but they just cant afford it... despite having the cash thry want it to buy dembele too and that's their problem not ours. 100mil plus and he goes imo.
Zinedine Zidane discusses his new contract Zinedine Zidane said he is happy to sign a new contract at Real Madrid but admitted he knows only results on the pitch will guarantee he actually sees it out. The Frenchman confirmed on Saturday that he has agreed a new three-year deal with the Spanish and European champions, though he has seen up close the speed with which Madrid dispense with coaches who do not deliver. 'My story with Real Madrid is deeper than contracts and signatures,' Zidane said in a press conference ahead of Sunday's Spanish Super Cup clash against Barcelona
As mentioned, sky & BBC saying it's 113 & 114 respectively with just 5 add ons... I think 'not for sale' means just that - this is incredible money for a player that, let's be honest, is about 65m in the crazy modern era. We ain't interested, and all the bullshit tactics they've tried to pull will make it so satisfying at the top to keep rejecting instantaneously
He's about 70mil pre the Keita stuff.. spurs are buying a lad who's done shag all for fee rising to 40. Martial cost what... 60 odd if we are to believe the add one. Pogba 85 or whatever... there's a few crazy fees having been paid. If you look what lukaku went for and the morata....
Ok good point on the last 2, Pogba was always set for a world record fee though, just hilarious that it was back to utd and mourinho hasn't a clue how to use him. I just think all 'greedy FSG' stuff needs to be corked for the minute. We've rejected 3 phenomenal offers for Coutinho, were just a Mickey Mouse moment away from securing VVD and offered double what we've ever paid for anyone for Keita but they didn't want to sell... It's been a horrible window but a lot of perspective is needed too
[QUOTE="KENNY_KLOPP_KING, post: 10860660, member: 1004268"]Thing is, £120m is a good price....and Nor has Liverpool's, he's still injured [/QUOTE] As a cash down payment, with £15m to follow in January.
