  1. There has been some ‘talk’ that we were in discussions with Leipzig over a deal for Werner which would be announced in Jan but he wouldn’t move til the summer. Have no idea where that speculation has come from though. His release clause is €30m.
  2. That was well weird. Really not rating Carragher as a pundit/ co-commentator. Overly negative on Liverpool and doesn’t offer any real insight anymore.
  3. We may be closing in on a young left back... https://www.90min.com/posts/6518022-exclusive-liverpool-set-to-win-race-for-coventry-city-starlet-sam-mccallum?utm_source=RSS
  4. Claimed he only did it to waste time. Yeah. Which is why he was so keen to shake Kean’s hand and explain things to him when he came off and definitely didn’t just blank him
  5. It certainly could be Sancho, but I think this applies to pretty much every player we’ve been linked with at this point. Plenty of competition for the likes of Werner and Havertz for example.
  6. I’m a little intrigued by the timing of this. We’ve obviously briefed this story. I wonder why? Wouldn't be surprised if there was news breaking on Sancho or Havertz very soon.
  7. I don’t think he’s a winger. Looks like a ‘big club’ No. 8 to me.
  8. Sure. But he’s being very proactive in his media availability at present.
  9. He was interviewed a couple of weeks ago saying he wants to manage in the Premier League again in the future. Made it seem like he was talking a year or two down the line, but he has been suddenly doing a lot of interviews with the UK sporting media at a time when it was looking like several significant jobs would be coming available... Not long after he left us he did say the only two clubs he wouldn’t manage were Manchester United and Everton, fwiw.

  11. Worst beauty pageant contestant EVER!
  12. Particularly when he doesn’t own them.
  13. I think Dortmund have set the fee around €140m
  14. So per the early briefings Mourinho has been promised transfer funds for January and more for the summer ‘if he needs it’.
  15. Strikes me as them requiring Champions League football next season. Which may tally with their revenue needs around financing the new stadium. Mourinho probably the best bet for the remainder of the season in that sense and they’ll think he still has enough time to get them into the top 4 with the decision being taken now. But longer term...
  16. Duncan Castles just tweeted that Mourinho has agreed to replace Pochettino. Will be in place for the West Ham game.
  17. Sky reporting Mourinho to Spurs deal ‘close’.
  18. Ha! Think the £40m hanging over him got to him
  19. I’ve posted this before but, fwiw, there were reports last summer, when Fraser was being linked with a move to Arsenal, that we had told him to wait til next summer and we’d take him on a Bosman. Bournemouth very unhappy he’s seeing out his contract, supposedly the main reason he hasn’t featured as much this season.

  21. Funny you say that. There was an interview with Stuart Webber, Norwich’s sporting director on the BBC’s Football Daily a few weeks’ back. Before he was with Norwich he had a similar role at Huddersfield. The piece was about what the job of sporting director involves. Anyway he was saying he always has a shortlist of possible candidates to replace the manager in case they are needed. So that’s how he first came across Farke, when he was looking at options for if he had to replace Wagner. Worth a listen. Didn’t realise he was with us for a while, which he touches on during the piece.
  22. The criteria was that he’d have been available on a Bosman next summer if he hadn’t signed this deal. He was waiting all summer for Bayern to sign him and seems to have been annoyed they didn’t follow through. Looks like they may have made promises and then told him to just wait another season so they could sign him for free. Werner appears to have had other ideas.
