If we were offered £150m or more it would be tempting, but I can't really see them paying that much, so I'd keep him for one more year then let him retire to the sun.
If Salah wants to go, my guess is that we’ll settle for £100-£120m. There is no way in hell that the Saudi’s are stoopid enough to pay that much more…..
we need a fast, skilful left footed attacker quickly. Ain’t gunna happen…..

Why? 120m 150m makes no odds to them. £30m is nothing to Saudi gov and the amount of money they’d bring in by having Salah more than outweighs that
I doubt money makes any difference to them either coming in or going out, it's image they're concerned with.
Not much point having £150m in your pocket that everyone knows about a few days before the transfer window closes. Look what we did to Barca to extract every penny of that 200m euros we knew they'd banked for Neymar. That said, if he's going he's going, so get as much money as possible - and there's a lot more possible than £100m for a player that's worth 3 x that amount in an Arab league.
sad fact is none of these players give a **** about being a legend of loved anywhere but their ****ty home village thst they will never return to.
salah can go there and he will never ever here is name sung again by anyone but Egypt fans.
he will never be able to show off his biff physique again
that 100million or 500mil is cash will have to do.
when we grew up players needed to be legends as they could live off it for life.
now one contract and þjey are set and dont need fans.
as far as I am concerned salah can go on pur terms which start at 200mil.
anything else and these Saudis need to know they can **** the **** off.
the player needs to know we will send him to train on own until the Saudi window is closed and then he will need to crawl back if he's been unprofessional.

Nor when i grew up they all needed to get jobs - our milkman was a League winner and England international .
iirc G Hurst sold insurance .
Funny thing, the moaning about players leaving, not wanting to be a hero, showing no loyalty etc.
But the fans are incredibly quick to turn on a player, bad season, **** you get him sold, injured **** you get him sold, aged **** you get him sold
The players know the fans are fickle, they'll be screaming someone else's name in 6 months.

The funny thing is that football fans expect a player to show affinity to a club that is 1000’s miles away from a place where he’s from, with á different up-bringing culture traditions and religious beliefs. If you were offered a job in let’s say France that’ll triple your wages of what you getting in the UK would you turn it down? I honestly believe that we’ll be better off without him, at the end of the day he’s only one player, we lost Rush, daglish, torres Suarez and coutinho in no so distant past and we’ve done alright as football club winning few important pots
I personally don't hold it against players.leaving if they're getting better contracts, better chance of winning or improving themselves.
I do think it's ****ty to go be an ambassador for a country with as terrible human rights as Saudi Arabia though.
That said, I blame Salah less than others. It's closer to his home culture, it's his religion majority (if a more harsh form of it) and closer to home.

Funny thing heard the other day was someone saying can’t blame Salah as lfc will be playing EL not CL and will want to be challenging for highest honours….
The guy is being linked to Saudi Arabia… the equivalent of league 1 football ffs

I agree with your first two paragraphs but the last one, I'm not so sure. Some fans are fickle (and I know you didn't say all fans) but I'm making the distinction which for me is the match going fans versus the rest. I doubt the match going fans want Salah sold and they will have felt the loss of Bobby, for example, much more than those who watch the footie on the telly. No more Sí Señor.
I haven't been to a game for a few years so I'm in the telly watchers group. I always imagine the emotions the fans at the match are going through, it's 10 times that of the rest of us. Which is why I make the distinction. I don't think the match goers are fickle at all and it's them who are singing the songs. Not picking on you mate, just making a little observation.

Doak can't be very good: his name is only one syllable, doesn't contain "van" or "inho" and sounds vaguely British. We need to spend £100m on a foreigner for them to be good.
