  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

  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

  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.

  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

  £66m for a goalkeeper, jeez
• OldCastleSwift

  July 2018

  £75m for van Dijk
  £59m for Keita
  £66m for Alisson
  
  At least Liverpool fans can't accuse other teams of buying trophies anymore

  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

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

  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.

  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

  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

  I'll just leave this here...

  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

  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.

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