It's pronounced "irony" there, is it? 

 

No, that's Canada. Only because they've no idea what "Sod's Law" means.

Problem is, I think Wiji wants the move.

 

Think of this - if we get 15m for him he cost the club 8m net and for four seasons was an integral part of the side at a relatively low wage. He played pretty much every league game, was massive in Europe and won the CL and the league.

Probably the best bit of business the club/Klopp has done.

This is what I don't get. Why Barca? They are nowhere near winning anything.

 

At least if he wanted to leave for a team challenging for domestic and European trophies, I could at least understand.

 

I've seen figures as low as £10m mentioned on Twitter in terms of a Barca bid.

 

We shouldn't be doing business with Barca for anyone. They can get fucked the snide cunts.

 

I'd rather let him go to the blueshite for free than to Barca to get him.

There is no value in a January transfer window.

We'd better sign this cunt soon, I keep singing Alcantara to the tune of mull of kintyre.

Shame, America's migrant workers could really use him.

Real are shite. A couple of half decent signings by Barca and they’ll win the league. Gini could be one of those.

 

Its either a last big contract, or a last big move. He’s won the league and European cup here.  I kind of find it hard to understand why he wouldn’t move? He’s not a boyhood red.  He can go to Barca for 3 seasons and almost certainly win a league and Copa del Rey. And then off back to Holland to finish his career. More power to him I say. I want him to stay. I’d rather we kept him then signed Thiago (I’d like both) but I wouldn’t begrudge him that move at all. 

[TheHowieLama]

Would imagine he has bought into Koemans "project" the way he did with Klopp. 

Compared to where we were 4 years ago - Barca is a pretty safe bet for silverware.

Give us the lyrics, mate !

Pearce has said theres not a chance we will accept £15m for Gini 

[Arnaud]

No way FSG is selling a player 15 M to buy another one for 30 M !

Canny chip-pissing from Beef Burger-Head there. Knows full well we can’t afford Thiago without selling Gini first. He’s now subtly ruling out specific signings using degrees of separation. Master of his craft and worth The Athletic subs on his own.

I reckon the odds of us allowing him to leave on a free are lower, like. Henry would sell his own grandmother if her contract was running out.

Works for a pay site and gets zero scoops until the club tells him something. He's become useless besides saying the obvious and indulging in hilarious Twitter bants.

Barcelona signing Wijnaldum and Thiago would be quite a shafting.

[johnsusername]

51 pages. If we don't sign him then Dave might have to quietly shut the site down to save us all from embarrassment.

 

 

[Leyton388]

FSG while our rivals strengthen and Barca sign both Gini and Thiago.

[Anubis]

Sounds like the old ‘sell us Gini for £15m or we’ll go after your target (even though we really won’t)’ manoeuvre.

 

“How many times have we seen that story?"

If Thiago goes to Barca & we keep Gini, I’ll be happy.

Really? I’ll be happy if Thiago comes to us and we keep Gini. I’ll be disappointed by anything else.
