    That's a lot of money for our relegation rivals Southampton to potentially spend.

    Sounds like Man City were wanting to sign him too which would explain the extortionate price. Bit of a bidding war has been going on perhaps. Trying to outbid Man City FFS!

    They put a ludicrous price tag of 70mil on him, and its gone even higher, the football world is mad.

    The guy is worth €20m tops, in the normal world that is, not the loopy twilight zone that football exists in now! Imagine what Darren Peacock would be worth if he were in today’s market!!

    On a side note, when are Liverpool changing their name to Liverhampton? Didn’t realise they were using the saints as a feeder club these days.

    I can only imagine the details of the deal......€1.2b in cash, Sterling, De Bruyne and Aguero in exchange, a 35% stake in Etihad airlines and a lifetime of free haircuts at Toni&Guy!

    Good signing. Ignoring the fee he is exactly what Liverpool need. I think him and Matip will make a good pairing. They still dropped a massive bollock not signing him and Pickford in the summer. Their keepers are still ****.
