How much of his wages will we have ended up paying over the years? Probably wasn't on a great deal anyway.

I would estimate £2.6m.

Ridiculous sum to pluck out of thin air. I'd estimate more like £2.7m

Based on a youtube video I'd take Cantwell over Grealish. Not sure he's what we need though. I'd be looking for a young potentially prolific Van Basten type centre forward.

Grealish could be very good in our team. 

[joe_fishfish]

Grealish would have increase his work rate about a thousand times over to get into our team. In terms of his defensive contribution he's about as far away from a Klopp midfielder as you could get, and he's not getting a game in our front three either.

I wouldn't say he's lazy but it's true, he would have to get fitter to excel at a very top club.

 

I like Cantwell too, be fair. Norwich have a couple players that could make the step up because of their style of play.

[Josef Svejk]

Grealish is a midland Lallana.

 

That's not an insult: I think he's very good. But ultimately a little lightweight...

He looks like a total cunt though. 
 

For that reason alone I’m out. 

[INTORRESTING]

Grealish is too much of a flash prick  -  hair and socks combo  - no thanks.

[ZonkoVille77]

Grealish can fuck off.

[moof]

Been impressed with Grealish whenever I’ve seen him but I’m incredibly put off signing him for a number of reasons. Chiefly, that he seems to steal his shorts from the local primary school lost property. Fucking deviant. 

[Strontium]

Cantwell reminds me of Lallana too. Although I think I'd need to see him or Grealish being carried off on a stretcher before I'm ready to proclaim either of them as the heir to Adam's crown.

[moof]

Neither of them have lallana’s work rate or off the ball ability.

That's also a result of the teams they play for, to be fair. I don't know where to get km/game and sprints/game stats but I'd presume Cantwell does run a fair bit because he plays for a team that demands it. Grealish, on the other hand is given almost a free role so he's not running as much. Lallana of course playing under Pochettino and Klopp has always had to be very fit.

[El Dangerous]

None of our players had the work rate they currently possess before they signed for us. It's the Klopp effect.

[El Rojo]

Cantwell could be the English Lallana. 

[Anubis]

If Davies is the White Gerrard, then surely Grealish is the Permetanned Lallana.

[Scrump]

Kai Havertz 

 

and let slip the dogs of war!

 

(Is he any good? Papers say he's bound elsewhere)

[Lee909]

Fuck buying either Grealish or Cantwell

 

Why block the path of Jones or Elliot.

I'd rather those two have more opportunities than buying Grealish or Cantwell. I think Hoever and William's should be given a chance for the right back slot behind Trent. Hoever plays centre back for Holland as well.

[Megadrive Man]

I rate Grealish, but i'm not sure he's worth the crazy amount of money you'd have to pay to get him now.

Liverpool will not be one of the clubs Timo Werner considers when his £42.6m release clause comes into play. Werner already rejected the Reds last year, telling them “there is no space for me to play” due to the presence of Firmino, Salah and Mane. [@SJohnsonSport] https://t.co/jzdzbPKJfX

Weak mentality.

Our pitch is too small?
