Arsenal doing good, but quietly missed out on Rogers, Vini and Barcola.

They’ll also have us in January when we are in full flight.

Madrid signing a second choice right back, twitter talking about a potential loan 2+2 =5 which is how many days left in the window…

Lots of people looking at the camara transfer. Timing is tight though so will be a photo finish.

Gakpo is a good sell because he’s been here a while so virtually whole fee is profit. He renewed so wages are high. And Rio Barcola and ample cover and younger. We take his fee to profit this year, but Barcola will be a portion. I think we write off fees in 3 years whereas Chelsea were going out over 5 (7 when it was allowed). I don’t know if we can vary this by player btw, so it’s likely a lot more complex than this. Either way, cl qualification is minimum expectation.

Barcola can cover Isak, Munoz can play anywhere too. good read that about Barcola. He’s hitting his stride now so we getting as he’s reaching his peak. And a good lad.

Tour is crazy. Done it twice, 20 years ago and 10 years ago. Both were great. Had a local lad both times, great banter and represented city beautifully. if nothing else, a well hosted tour will see people spend more in the shop.

Barcola seems to be close. Get camara and mbaye/minteh that should do it. cheeky loan for Trent not a bad shout Even if we do that, our idiots do love to suck the joy out of the window don’t they? elliott being linked to Italian teams - would be good for him.

This summer really does show how screwed the game is, top to bottom. you have us being bought be wealth that collectively is over 300billion. players signing for 50-100 mil like it’s candy, players negotiating huge payoffs city and Chelsea just blatantly ignoring the rules infantino selling the World Cup trump getting a ban overturned Middle premier league clubs turning down 50-80 mil bids for players. aspiring clubs spending 65mil on rejects, then complaining of ffp people asking sell Wirtz after first game of season. our football people, representing brand of Liverpool, just don’t give a s***. Been paid, moving on, and will just move on. You’d this would be a breaking point, but feels like the start of something instead. And with klopp And pep now done, I genuinely can’t see anyone left who actually, genuinely cares about the game.

At this point he’s probably glad he only signed a 2 year contract.

Whatever happened to mane (the 18 year old) think he was with Watford?

How does gakpo staying help? 3 left wingers and no right sided ones? utter shambles couldve had mbaye and Barcola done for the sake of a few mil. Then potentially got in camara or similar. Still wouldn’t be perfect but at least gives us a chance. only upside is it’s so so embarrassing they’ll be proper changes.

Only way I see it changing is if minteh pushes for it. at least it was quick.

The club do like to embarrass Pearce, so there’s hope yet.

Or this season will be so much better than many expect it to be.

Hold the phone, Hughes is doing 8 hours a day???

He’ll be better for playing on both sides. He’s only young.

Would be cruel to loan him again or keep him around. Let him go for a reasonable fee and reboot his career.

What happens when ekitike is back? And Bradley? City just about got over the line, United didn’t even get going like spurs and clearly we going to sign people and get better as we play more. Not great, but tough to judge on that game. We have 5 games now, then a 3 week break. We’ll know when back after that - the city game.

It was first game under new manager, a tough away, Isak first game there, we haven’t completed the squad yet. The media pile on when city needed a late goal, United and spurs lost and Chelsea won by 1, against a poor Fulham. the media has turned on us, it’s the time when we need to stand up for our boys, not join in the kicking.

For anyone who loves the full moon time of the window, apparently we signing Tchoumeni for 100m… sigh…

I love how fans have done from give the players and manager a chance, until October, November, to giving one game. how about we give it a chance? I realise the twatterati are out in force, but maybe we can back the lads a little longer than first game. wirtz will be one of our stars.

Gakpo was likely out regardless. Tough last season for him, he’s not a 9 or a 10, so keeping him as cover for those is pointless.

Yep both frimpong and Bradley are homegrown anyway. fair point by some about the skill, effort and fit.

I’d take him back, providing he passes the sniff test. Is he contrite, does he want to work hard and need to step back up to his level, reasonable on wages and be grateful, rather than entitled. Could he be cover in middle and right back?
