Transfer Window Speculation

[FakeNewsBear]

West Ham in for Ox and West Brom’s Matheus Pereira.
 

Both around 25 -30m, they only want one.

Chiesa and Tielemans and we’ll win the league again. Don’t care how much it costs. Just go and do it please. Jürgen has earned some sparkle.

This would be an insane piece of business.

Can't really see Oxlade Chamberlain going to be honest unless we've got something weird lined up to replace him like Deli Alli. We're one in one out on foreigners as it is, not sure how selling an English lad is going to really help.

I can see 25-30 million reasons to sell the Ox.

Now do a list of replacements.

Yeah the way klopp is using AOC in pre-season doesn’t suggest he’s looking to sell him tbh.

Tielemans and …. I dont know. I just know Ox is almost always injured.

Which is great, but we aren't in a position where we can swap a foreign player for an English one. So we'd be paying £30m to make our squad smaller.

I’d buy Joe Willock. He’s always been half decent. Player in there.

Nah the only thing that rhymes is Pillock and so his songs will be a bit harsh on the lad

It actually bothers me a bit cause it has me thinking we’re going to go with what we have up front and use AOC in the Firmino role and not add another forward/striker but on the other hand, that may allow us to spend big on a midfielder

I thought that too but surely with his brittleness klopp knows we likely wouldn’t be long being without him. Need a proper attacker in too.

Would be pretty simple to swap Ox for an overseas top target, then switch someone like Origi or Minamino for Bowen.

The weirdness lined up could be Bowen coming the other way?

[Billy Talbot]

Yeah, I think the real problem us and the English/foreign thing is that we've got a couple of bit part foreigners. The lads that are only likely to play 5-10 games a season need to be home grown.

Especially now we've committed to a foreign 3rd choice keeper. We really have to shift Origi and Minamino.

Yeah if all this to-ing and fro-ing to pull together £30m is just to bring in Bowen then it will be extremely underwhelming

Yep, especially as he is also a bit of a sicknote.

Be nice to steal Goretzka from under the noses of the Mancs.

Not that I'm advocating buying him but Bowen's played over 40 games each of the last 4 seasons

Is he rumoured to be going there?

Out of contract at the end of next season and the mancs are apparently lining up a contract for him. 26 years old, decent player and would be a good replacement for Gini.

Madrid want him apparently. 

So with Wilson going for £12m we've pretty much broken even in net spend terms this summer so far.
