January 2018 Transfer Thread

[aws]

We should just issue a general apology to everybody for everything.

[Numero Veinticinco]

What a bizarre thing for the club to do, if there’s any truth to it.

 

Might start phoning up different neighbours to tell them I don’t fancy their wives.

Professional, if true. That’s good etiquette if you’re linked in the mass media with a player you’re not after.

[YNWAViking]

Lemar and Oblak then. Make it happen LFC.

[El Dangerous]

Lemahrez.

[TheHowieLama]

Mahresma

[El Dangerous]

I'd be careful resigning Suarez. Him and Firmino would have a field day with Oblak's name.

Haha!

[WhiskeyJar]

Countinho to pay us 12 million to make the transfer happen.

Brexit is on us, we apologise.

What?

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Where has that come from?

Reported earlier than he is making up 15ml euros of the fee himself to push it through

Just shows how much they want you doesn't it

We should issue a public apology to Southampton for being their cash cow.

[Numero Veinticinco]

Can’t believe that’s true.

Fucking disgrace if true.

Chrome translate gives the second sub heading of that as "With the help of crack, the Barça increases its proposal in fixed to convince Liverpool"

 

I suppose at least unlike in Arsenals case we know what they are smoking over at the Bernabeu.

Cheers.

He is showing his true colours now. Its on the verge of becoming worse than the Mascherano transfer.

Agreed i would need to be on a lot of crack to pay 15ml towards my own transfer

Like he didn't show his true colours in the summer you mean?

 

If it wasn't WC year, he would have probably gone on strike.

It is the continental thing to do - players buy themselves out of contracts all the time. It is how Neymar moved.

He did, but this is next level shit.

 

I mean honestly it's like we have been abusing him.

Paid the whole thing though not just a portion

[WhiskeyJar]

Paid the whole thing though not just a portion

That should not be allowed in my view.

If players agree to a long term commitment/contract, they should not be allowed to pay themselves out of it.

 

I honestly believe it's unethical and speaks volumes about the players' character. It might be an old fashion view but loyalty has to be weighted-in somehow.
