Lazy comparison but he probably compares with Mane at a similar age (although more well known and more highly rated).

He was 18 last season - he compares favorably to both Mane and Salah, and is already playing at a higher level than either of them did.

Italy back four looked nervous when he had the ball.

[Megadrive Man]

We don't need to make space for him in the squad because he's under 21. Once we've sold Shaqiri we will have raised about 35 million in sales this summer.

Which just about covers Konaté fee?

Playing in the top team in the world at 18 years old. Drew the pelanty against Italy.

He was better than Bamford!

[Scott_M]

Senile old fuck. What relevance has this got to do with supporters or anything?

 

Awaiting for the replies from some of our highly esteemed posters saying FSG are taking a % of the fee or some other bollocks.

Doku wouldn't be a centre forward for us, he'd play wide.

Like Mane and Salah who’ve scored around 20 a season for the past 4 years? The point stands.  No more forwards who don’t know where the goal is. 

[Anubis]

Does Barclay really want round two with Rashid.

Don’t know how much we need a young developing winger right this minute. Especially when our options at CF are Bobby who’s been off form for two seasons and Origi.

He played on the left v Italy. I only saw a part of the game but apparently he was electric in the 2nd half.

 

If he can play wide, Mane, Salah & Jota are all capable of playing through the middle.

I think we'd tweak the system a bit if we were gonna bring him in, he doesn't profile anything like Salah / Mane / Jota. (Or Firmino.)

 

That said I don't think we're actually in for him, not unless we get rid of both Origi and Shaqiri.

[El Rojo]

Doku looks really exciting based on the clips I've seen. Surely has a higher ceiling in terms of potential than Bowen. 

 

Is it true that Klopp flew Doku over a few years ago to visit the club?

He's a fucking dickhead. I don't know why he's ever been held in high esteem by fellow journalists when he just writes complete and utter drivel and every opinion he has on the game and players are completely stupid. 

 

He just reminds me of some posh/upper middle class person who has only just got into footy. 

[Brownie]

What the fuck is he even getting at?

[TD_LFC]

It's not even as if we bought him from someone so the confidentiality could be depriving the previous club of a sell on.

 

Unless it's related to the deferred payment of the transfer fee and his beef is with Fulham for trying to circumvent rules. 

[Scott_M]

Surely he’d be better contacting Citeh asking for their accounts & how they could afford Grealish.

He's a fucking idiot. Does he know there are at least 3 parties to the 'confidentiality clause,' Liverpool, Fulham and the player soagreement will need to come from all parties? What purpose does this fuck thinks will come about for disclosing it? Why should Liverpool's or Fulham's transfer policy and fees etc be published? Does he ask the same of chelsea, arsenal spurs, manchester city and united?

 

While he's at it, why doesnt he disclose to us all how much he gets for his shit musings from any outlet that publishes them? Oh, that's different I guess.

[Mil-ing Around]

I think we need a quick wide player who can beat his man. Mané doesn't look the same to me, his form was horrendous last year and he hasn't looked all that great in preseason. His confidence looks shot. We have to prepare for the future with all our front three approaching 30. Mané and Salahs pace won't last forever so we need quick players coming through.

 

The Origi project hasn't worked and we need to sell him this summer. He's just not good enough and he isn't even young anymore. Bring in the Doku kid, it's worth the gamble, he might really progress in the next few years under Klopp. Along with Elliot, Jones and Gordon. We could be in a really good place in a few seasons in terms of young players

I think the word you are looking for here is...shithouse cunt.

He was a very good Starship Captain.

I hope he scores the winner for Spurs on Sunday.

I don't know what you've been watching in preseason but Mane has looked lightning.
