I’m not against the transfer but It’s the rumoured sum which annoys me. £30M is not a lot.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Chelsea, Pool, Utd, City, Spurs would all get 40 mil minimum for him.
Coutinho cost £8.5m, Suarez £22m.
We signed Xhaka and Mustafi for £35m each.
Liverpool did the very thing you are very much against, buying cheap players rather than the top, most expensive players. Coutinho was an Inter flop, and Suarez was a madman playing in a lesser league with a ban for biting someone.
SO WHAT THE FACK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT YOU CLUELESS LOONY???
Suarez. The brilliant striker, we desperately needed but missed out on because the owner took the P's and only made the cheapest possible offer of £40,000,001.
=====
Fack me, you are as thick as they come. The owner did not make a bid, and the reason our negotiators made the bid was because Suarez had a clause at that value which Liverpool did not respect.
I'm thick? You're the one not seeming to notice that the familiar theme here is refusal to pay the highest transfer fee. So yet again we come back to why has an entire team of people for 10 years. Never once coughed up the prime fee for the prime player? If it's not because they are being told they can't have the money to do so.
What is it that makes you think all these people who made a living at this. All keep buying to fail if they're free to by to succeed. 10 years of everyone getting it wrong is just not realistic. But one man just saying no to the money, well that is.
When Ozil was signed he was one of the most expensive players ever. Mustafi and Xhaka were in the top 20 when signed.
Pepe is 17th.
You are talking shiiiite.
Why is 10 years of getting it wrong not realistic when there has been a massive overhaul. If they were getting it right then why the overhaul?
It cannot be said the current people are getting it wrong because they are still repairing from the previous era.
You are arguing Liverpool bought the big money players while Arsenal went cheap. Countinho or Ozil, who cost £34m more??
Do you think Kroenke came to England and said "Get rid of Gnabry, Bennacer, Reine-Adelaide for peanuts" and then watch all 3 get big money moves within a year or two of leaving?
There are many reasons to criticise Kroenke as owner, but micro-managing and having a say on who is bought and sold is just ridiculous.
Still expect a Laca for" Partey" exchange-

Golden opportunity missed there Jenius !!

I think you're both right tbh. Kroenke is not micro managing the club, yes, but he is certainly not providing a steady influx of money. This club is going nowhere with him at the helm.
