Summer 2017 Transfer Thread

[Harry Squatter]

The Mirror stating that we've bid £37m for Koulibaly from Napoli. Even though everyone knows he's worth about £53m.

[cloggypop]

I didn't, to be fair.

That sounds quite accurate. Get a quote for a player, tell them we'll be back in touch while we monitor the player, swoop with a bid of around 60-70% of the quoted valuation and watch as the whole thing gets blown up out of all proportion for maximum exposure.

I thought about putting a bid in for him but when they told me he was worth £53m I decided not to. I slapped in a bid for a digital alarm clock instead which set me back about £12.99.

Anything in this, Paulie?

Smokescreen for Keane

'#LFC continue to covet Red Bull Leipzig’s Naby #Keïta, whose side say he is not for sale. There is no interest in Aubameyang' - Joyce

 

On Van Dijk - 'That episode is unlikely to have run its course with the transfer window not even officially open' #LFC (Joyce)

 

'Sources in Italy suggest the final fee could be as much as £39 million.' - Joyce

[YNWAViking]

Keita and VVD back on, Aubameyang off. I'll take that.

[Byrnie]

Few snippets from Paulie from the MF.

(Is this ok Paulie?)

 

 

Fee for Salah £36.5m

Shirt number 9.

Medical probably Thursday.

 

LFC interested in Keane as an alternative to VVD.

"That episode is unlikely to have run its course" tantalisingly piques my hope for a season finale in which we loudly shit ourselves midway through our best man speech, then fall face first into the cake.

Van Dijk doesn't even play in Italy. I don't know who this Joyce is but he sounds like a chancer to me.

[Dave D]

Don't do it, man. I went as far as doing a mock up team sheet and everything and then we apologised to Southampton.

 

Maybe whats holding the whole thing up is that YOU need to apologise to Southampton and announce you've ended your interest in team sheets

[JagSquared]

You are aware that Liverpool's offices are in London right?

You are aware that I'm taking the piss right?

[Sputnik1]

Thew only thing we ever need to apologise to them for is taking six points each season from now on, the six fingered ****s. 

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Keita will be this summer's Dahoud.

 

I appreciate the use of the word "covet" though. It goes nicely with other reports that we're "long time admirers". I hope we woo him, and other suitors don't take his hand.

He's probably the most reliable journalist there is for our news

CT's just dirty he got his 'scoop' waaaaay off the mark..

[Jose Jones]

He's no Paulie, that's for sure.

I'm keen to discover which player who's not for sale for 12 months we'll make our sole midfield target next summer, while Keita is going to Dortmund.

 

It's ingenious.

That refers to Salah.

[Josef Svejk]

All sense of irony lost on this forum, it seems...

No it's not.

[Byrnie]

Thanks Robbie and amli for clearing that up for us.

[El Dangerous]

If James doesn't Pearce our dreams then Paul will be our Kill Joyce.

[Creator Supreme]

I didn't know about the London offices. That surely belongs in the modern football is shit thread!

 

I suppose it'll be a training ground down there next!
