Just listening to Danny Mills saying that Carra has 'Liverpool-tinted spectacles' for saying that he believes Ford will stay, at least for this year. 'If Barca call you have to go', being the logic. But hang on, Carra wasn't denying the player would like to go, or even that Liverpool won't eventually sell him: the issue, that Mills seems oblivious to, is that Liverpool nowadays are cash rich enough to say no, as are most Prem clubs now. Indeed, PSG told them to **** off over Verrati.

Certainly, the days of being butt-****ed as we were over Luis are over. Mills reckons that ultimately the player has all the power - well up to a point, but as we now see with VVD and hopefully Ford, that doesn't mean, if a player 'becomes' unsettled (like Masch did acting under orders from Barca), that Barca can get them for cheap. As Comolli says, Prem clubs can simply say no to that now - have Barca (and FSG too) got that message?

So you're wrong Danny, at least about saying the player holds ALL the cards: the selling club in the Prem don't have to roll over and sell at knockdown prices anymore, and that is Barca's MO all over. Also means that if and when VVD moves, Soton can get £60m for him (probably not from us the way I see it now), or simply say no deal. Certailny, we can - do FSG have the balls?

well TBH i read about carragher and souness discussing coutinho and then redknapp discussing VVD.

Mills is an outsider so maybe carragher knows something we don't about the one more year. But i did feel on sky the pair of souness and carragher did sound quite pro LFC so i would be fine with anyone calling them on it.

Redknapp gave saints the opposite treatment and probably riled the **** out of quite a few saints fans.

I understand what you are saying about barca and all that as well... but real are the club in the ascendancy in Spain now, I think they overestimate their appeal currently. Not that LFc can hold a guy, just that a guy would be more inclined to go to real or psg it seems.

I'd also agree on VVD. I think arsenal or Chelsea will buy him close to deadline day.

Just for the pure popcorn value, that'd be ace <laugh> Can you imagine the scenes if you ended up selling Coutinho and we nicked VVD? SOS would go into full meltdown, Henry would be getting turds in the mail within days lol.

VVD, Sigurdsson and Giroud = £130m.

Get shot of Barkley and McCarthy and we've got the best part of half of that back. I think it makes sense, I'm therefore going to e-mail the Mosh with my recommendations <rofl>

?? SOS is a union isn't it. Do they also have a forum?

He needs to learn when to hold and give, doing it at the right time.

He can be slow or fast, but must get to the line....defend and attack.

its the same over here.

Taa decision making can be extremely risky
Gomez lost 2 years to injury but his passing is suicidal at times this preseason. balls into guys with 2/3 guys on them
Woodburn wants 5 mins on ball.

that sort of stuff.

speed of thought and following the shape is something that can only come with games and training.

I am not overly worried about TAA playing for us from the off this year but the others are not ready.

I presume the assumption is they'd go FSG out or something. the thing was after suarez left they did not.

SoS will probably be more active on anfield road end that any signings or sales. and are trying to keep themselves relevant playing with the whole safe standing issue.
