    there will be people saying ‘he is a millionaire footballer, what has he got to be down about’

    they obviously have no idea/experience.

    Leeds apparently have agreed around 14 million for Diego Llorente from Sociedad.

    Spanish international centre back who can cover full back and also midfield. Know very little about him but West Ham wanted him so with their track record of signings he might well be ****e!

    Saying Spanish international is a bit like saying he can breath without the aid of a machine.

    They seem to give everyone a cap, bit like Wales in fact.

    I hear you. I'm just regurgitating information from internet as I know **** all about him. Hope he is better than the German international we signed who has given 3 goals away in two games.

    I wasn't dissing either way, I also don't know much about him, but you need defenders and he was being scouted by fellow Premier League clubs.

    Makes sense on paper doesn't it.

    Yeah I know mate lol. Some people seem delighted with it bizarrely.

    Would be okay as a squad filler type signing but it's likely gonna be our main midfielder signing <laugh>

    Make sure you pop on our transfer thread with your insight <whistle>

    no good if Southampton play him deep. Weds to be pushing on, won’t replace the lad who went to Spurs.

    They also have one of the highest paid managers in the world, and one of the highest wage bills in the world, with a wage to turnover ratio of about 85% (before covid hit revenue)

    Our wage bill is over £100m behind the RS’s though.

    But Liverpool operate on buttons though apparently.

    People that support clubs at the top have a very different line of argument. It becomes about who's bought trophies mote than the other. At the bottom fans like to talk about selling their best players for profit and it being good business..

    It's all sad as ****
