Summer 2018 Transfer Thread

[Strontium]

I always wanted to call my Fantasy Football team Dembele Big Shorts. It's a yes from me.

Anyone think Jonjo Shelvey is worth another go?

 

Passing ability is great, through the lines, wonder if he could be developed a bit under Klopp to help us in midfield when teams sit deep.

It was Klopp who sent him on his way, wasnt it?

 

I think he's probably been Englands best midfielder during the spring. But i think we should look elsewhere.

 

Neves looks like someone who would be a better fit.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

I don’t think they will. I think they’ll buy and be better than they are this season the twats. I’ve given up on expecting them to implode. They never will.

It’s very hard to implode when you’re buying world class players right, left and centre.

 

So even if an implosion would be nice, I’ll settle for the current situation. A negative narcissist as a manager not getting the best out of them, but doing just about well enough not to be sacked.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

I will be massively disappointed if we sign Yaya Toure.

Agree.

 

I also reckon you have very little to fear, would be extremely surprised if we were in for him.

Pass.

Loved Jonjo Baldy but I think his career is better served at Newcastle.

[Dr Nowt]

Klopp’s football with someone as dim and ill-disciplined as Jonjo?

 

Hand in glove.

Rodgers moved him on.

Shelvey is complete and utter shite. Let's stow that kind of patter right now, onwards and upwards.

I'm aboard the Jonjo Shelvey train. That is, the train that doesn't head anywhere near Liverpool.

[Elite]

Jonjo is like Professor X without the helmet to control his erratic brainfarts.

[Numero Veinticinco]

Is Dembele as good as Sane?

No, but he is as talented.

[Einch]

If there is one thing which would bring the Rev back, it’s us signing Dembele.

 

What’s this about the Rev?

[Elite]

What’s this about the Rev?

Him and King Emlyn eloped into the sunset.

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

What’s this about the Rev?

Someone told him that they didn't like him, so he ran away

[WhiskeyJar]

What’s this about the Rev?

Had a sparring with the King.

Both were wrong, both were right, both are gone.

[Einch]

You get busy for a few days and this happens. Damn.

[Dr Nowt]

What’s this about the Rev?

The Rev built, manned, fuelled and drove the Dembele train, so I imagine he would be extremely happy should we bring him in, even on loan.

Alderwiereld has signed a contract with Spurs until 2021

Welcome to Barcelona, Toby.

Fuck signing a Burnley CB

They'd look shite in anything but a back 9 that Burnley play

Roma have told Liverpool they will not consider selling Alisson for any less than £87m.

 

The Brazilian is one of the most sought-after goalkeepers on the planet following his sparkling displays since arriving at Roma from Internacional just two years ago.

 

Back then, he cost the Serie A club only £6m but, according to the Corriere dello Sport, Roma now believe he is worth well over 10 times that amount.

 

Both Liverpool and Real Madrid are understood to be keen on signing Alisson this summer but he will not come cheap.

 

It has been suggested that Roma have told all interested parties that they will only part with the 25-year-old if a club stumps up an eye-watering £87m.

 

Such a figure would make him by far the most expensive goalkeeper in history, shattering the £34.7m set by Ederson when he joined Manchester City in June.

 

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has been linked with a number of goalkeepers with the long-term futures of both Simon Mignolet and Loris Karius currently unclear.

[Aventus]

Seems like a lot of money, but if there was a 100% guarantee that he'll perform and improve to his full potential then he'd be worth it.

 

90mil seems like a lot but he's you'd for a keeper so we'd have him for the best part of a decade, the 30 odd million Juve paid for Buffon was a fortune back then but 17 years on you can say he was more than worth the money.

 

I'd rather the money was spent elsewhere, you could get a keeper that's probably 90% as good as Allison for half the price, but if there's a fair amount of cash knocking about and we can get him without compromising on buying outfield players then fuck it, get the lad signed.
