The Transfer Window 2: Electric Boogaloo

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Another creative midfielder, Pellegrini does have a preferred type of player but he'd cost up to £30mil....would rather it go into a DM

Also if we sell Arnie this window goes down as a poor one despite everything whats happened so far

But I still dont think (hope) that he's gonna leave, don't think the Daves are oblivious to what the reaction would be

whupathman

Arnie has a track record of if he wants to go he will go, we benefited last year from this, it will be about the best deal if he wants out, not saying he does

Hammerdublin

Ex is saying on Twitter that there's no truth in these rumours about Arno. He has already said it twice - but they keep asking him the same question.

IronHerb

But no one has offered £60m yet. If they did and he went that would not ruin the window for me.

Of course he will be happy to know that, he's seen the photo with you and the Daves, hasn't he?
;lol

We have an understanding, me and The Engineer

IronHerb

Who's the old guy with Pelle? ;run

Lukerz

£66m for a goalkeeper, jeez

OldCastleSwift

£75m for van Dijk
£59m for Keita
£66m for Alisson

At least Liverpool fans can't accuse other teams of buying trophies anymore

They could have got Joe Hart for free ;whistle

Is it just me that sees the irony of Liverpool spending £66m for the keeper of the team they put seven goals past last season??.. ;hmm

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Plus they are likely to go back in for Fekir for about £50mil

MrsGrey

He was in goal that day, baracks ;doh

Claret & Hugh (I know) report that Rice’s camp are pushing for £36,000 a week in wages. We have offered £18,000 plus £10k in bonuses according to Hugh.

baracks_a_hammer

Right now he doesn’t merit £36k a week IMO. Although he has done very well, he really hasn’t played that many games yet for the first team. They can always offer another review midway through the next season after reviewing his progress

They can, because Liverpool don't win trophies

OldCastleSwift

Not strictly transfer related, but this article may hint at the club's position re a defensive midfielder:

This bit in particular seems to suggest that Obiang is being viewed (by the OS at least) as our primary holding midfielder:

When that position is deep-lying midfielder, Obiang himself is undoubtedly aiming to be the best

OldCastleSwift

I'll just leave this here...

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

In his defence that was 2 years ago....pretty sure he knows now that to win in this current climate you have to spend

And they also got windfalls from Coutinho, Sterling and Suarez

But yes....if they win this year they have to accept that they've probably bought the league

PrestonHammer

It's not as if he has only just spent money this transfer window, he has spent £500 million since he's been there.

OldCastleSwift

Although two years ago they did spend £53m on Wijnaldum and Mane, so even then it was a little hypocritical, IMO

secrethammersfan

It’s been a bit quiet lately - we haven’t bought anyone in three days!

shf

It's typical of the way the club is run: sign 7 players before the end of the World Cup, and then think that's job done.

It's just not good enough.

We should offer Rice and 40m for Willian.

SSN saying we are linked with him and he can play CDM.

I see we’ve made signing number 8, a defender called Hendrix. He’s even got a ponytail like Andy.
