[Aventus]

According to BILD, Pulisic has called off contract talks with Dortmund. Dortmund look like they want to sell for €70m.

It's fucking on!

I hope so, with all these expected sales I was starting to worry that we wouldn't win the net spend trophy this season.

[Numero Veinticinco]

I think it's a now or never move for Pulisic. If Jurgen wants him then now's the time. If he goes to another big club and does well, he will be a 200m player before next season.

Is he the kid who is a big United fan but klopp has been a big admirer of for years.

Yeah, the guy that came in and turned it from 1-0 to 1-3 when they played us a few days ago.

[lifetime fan]

It’ll be a sad day for me when he goes. There’s been very few threads in which I’ve been able to use my ‘INGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER’ line.

 

It’s a sure fire rep winner and I bet that fake Palace Turdseye will be all over it.

 

 

Didn't work this time either - quite the opposite in fact!

To be fair the ref played a big part with the award of that "penalty"

So did the speed of Pulisic. Soft pennnut they'd get given s lot because of how fast he travels.

 

He's far from finished in his development but he has a high ceiling. I think he could learn and thrive under Klopp. He's one of the best teens in the world.

[Babb'sBurstNad]

High ceilings are so last year, all the cool kids are talking about xG now.

[Bad Red Bull]

Haven't seen too much of him but from few glimpses in matches and videos, it seems like he is predominantly one footed and beats people with pace rather than trickery. Not many goals and assists.Am not too sure on him. Does he have a higher potential than Ousmane Dembele for instance because 70 million is a lot.

He's probably just outside of Dembele and Mbappe but also about half the price.

[moof]

Hang on, does this Pulisic stuff have legs? That would be a massive signing. I like him better than Fekir because of the pace, more suited to our game and the premier league.

Aren't barca rumoured to be quoting 80 million for dembele. not sure if he's even available

I think he's only available on loan isn't he? Got him for a huge amount 12 months ago.

[3 Stacks]

I think we'll end up with one of Pulisic or Dembele eventually. Klopp just seems way too interested. But I don't see where there would be place for them this season and I doubt either of them would want to come here knowing there are already very strong players in their position.

I don't want to be buying any player who doesnt believe he can get in the team. I dont want us to be selling one of the front 3 just so Pulisic can sign.

Top players are not afraid of competition for places

Seems fairly clear from his own words (and his father) that Pulisic would be more than open to playing for LFC. Clearly has a lot of admiration for Klopp, and Klopp obviously rates him very highly as a player. BVB reportedly looking for £60-70m. I'd pay it.

Fekir was supposedly Klopp's absolute priority this summer- so he clearly wants another top class attacker. Shaqiri is a very useful addition, but definitely think another belter would really help. If Fekir isn't happening, Pulisic would make all the sense in the world.

Add to that the fact Chamberlain is out for the season- and then of course, all the marketing benefits for FSG of having America's biggest talent in years- there's certainly a case to act early and make a move for Pulisic now, rather than waiting.

When we got about 50 million for sterling, 60-70 for pulisic is an incredible price when you adjust for the inflation since then.

[Thoth]

The USA thing with Pulisic and FSG makes it a no brainier for them, incredible talent.. get it done

[Carvalho Diablo]

Pulisic, Bobby, Mane and Mo. 3 into 4 is a very nice fit imo, plenty of depth and plenty of games to go around.

 

Chuck Shaquiri, Studge and whomever else into that forward mix and we are really, really well set for a serious go at winning some stuff.

 

Without Pulisic or AN Other I would still be concerned about or creativity and forward depth. I think it's probably unrealistic to expect the same run of good health from our front 3 that we benefited from last year.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Oh, and sign Ruben Neves.

[Captain Turdseye]

Didn't work this time either - quite the opposite in fact!

*gasp*

 

You were the Crystal Palace fake Turdseye all along.

[Captain Turdseye]

Surely there’s absolutely no chance of us signing Pulisic in this window as well. Shirley.

[Captain Turdseye]

I remember when people on here used to say “Sign ALL the players”

 

Fucking prophetic.

[Anny Road]

Don’t do it.

Think what Jose might say.
