Probably tapping him up most of the season to make them his prefered destination, then got gentlemans agreement from Brighton to be let go in summer if he stays in Jan.
He gets an apple and an orange every Friday.How much is he on a week. Can we not get them to add that to it and refer to it as a “Liverpool splash the cash in £100m deal” like it would be for us.
Season only finished like 10 days ago, most clubs have signed no one. Relax a littleThere you go. Good signing, decent price.
I'm not sure what's going on at our club but we're still a little behind the curve. I do worry about next season if we don't sort ourselves out.
BTW, I do like the look of both Emerson and Paqueta at West Ham.
Isn't it beneficial to get your priority signings in as early as legally possible?Season only finished like 10 days ago, most clubs have signed no one. Relax a little
Ah here we go again. Every year.Season only finished like 10 days ago, most clubs have signed no one. Relax a little
Was apparently around £50k at Brighton and around £150k at Liverpool.How much is he on a week. Can we not get them to add that to it and refer to it as a “Liverpool splash the cash in £100m deal” like it would be for us.
That's an interesting question. I don't think that there is any substantial benefits, primarily because you don't sign priority signings for a few month and I don't think that there is a systemic benefit to get a player at a particular time during a transfer window.Isn't it beneficial to get your priority signings in as early as legally possible?
If you're able to get in say 2 targets out of 4 as early as possible, wouldn't that give you more time to scoop up the remaining ones? Liverpool seeem to be doing this regularly in wrapping up signings asap. Also you're looking at pre-season games to get your new player bedded in. You'll want that to be from the very first pre-season game to hit the ground running at the start of the new season.That's an interesting question.

Same - look at his dumb face. Prick.Already don't like him.
You don't pursue players one after the other, talks are done in parallel and the issue with them isn't one of time but to find an agreement that satisfies all parties, more time doesn't impact the core issue.If you're able to get in say 2 targets out of 4 as early as possible, wouldn't that give you more time to scoop up the remaining ones?

I dunno that's just my logical understanding of it. Get signings in early, give then enough time during pre-season and start the new season on the front foot.
Hmmm. Have to agree to disagree there. I have seen far too many drawn-out-throughout -the-summer transfer sagas. Madrid get Bellingham. Liverpool get Mac Allister.Season only finished like 10 days ago, most clubs have signed no one. Relax a little
The earliest legally possible is 1st of July. That's when the transfer window opens.Isn't it beneficial to get your priority signings in as early as legally possible?
Indeed. Every year people are losing their mind that we haven't signed anyone even before the season has finished.Ah here we go again. Every year.
Unless you’re living under a rock I’d think it’s pretty obvious what’s happeningThere you go. Good signing, decent price.

And every year we are lot, waste time chasing the unobtainable and then overpaying for the average. Nothing changesThe earliest legally possible is 1st of July. That's when the transfer window opens.

£35m release clause.Said 55m on BBC earlier now says 35 rising to 55. How do they sign the likes of those players for such small fees. We signed vdb for that kinda money
I see BBC are now also getting in on the act now of reporting Liverpool fees as only the up front fee. I can only conclude this means that Liverpool as a club release and present the figures this way.Said 55m on BBC earlier now says 35 rising to 55.

He wasn’t coming to the end of his contract. He signed a new one before the WC.£35m release clause.
Coming to the end of his contract.
Nobody else was in for him.
His contract at Brighton was until 2025 + 1-year option.£35m release clause.

Anyway, still good transfer for Pool. Klopp type midfielder
Classic twitter nothing quote. It doesn't say there were other CL qualified clubs in contact, just that none were ready to do business.Tweet

He had year on his contract when he signed the new one maybe his stipulation to extend was lowish release Clause or walking out on free .He wasn’t coming to the end of his contract. He signed a new one before the WC.
