Essentially a Benteke for Mane swap. Net spend will essentially be 0 swapping out skrtel, Sinclair, canos, and benteke for matip, Karius, grujic, and mane.
So when Shaktar demanded 38 mil for Texeira, Klopp told them to fuck off. We're apparently dicking around over like 2-3 million for Zielinksi and just slightly more than that for Chilwell. However we handed over 30 for Mane without blinking. Leads me to believe Klopp really, really likes him. I guess I'm sold even if that fee is ridiculous.
I think Klopp understands value. He's not willing to overpay but if you give him a fair price he's good with then it's done.
Well supposedly the decision is tomorrow. Even without Sakho getting suspended, seems like we are light at least 1 center back still.
About tree fiddy. And it was about that time that club officials realize it wasn't Benteke they were buying but instead the God damn Lochness Monster.
I like him, but okay with him leaving. He seems to not have the right mentality or work rate most of the time. For every moment of brilliance, you get 9 moments of average/poor.
Supposedly we are looking to use more buy back clauses with younger players. Wouldn't mind one for Ibe.
15m is pretty good for Ibe. Especially considering we have Ojo who will need playing time if we don't loan him out.
So it looks like as it stands we are going to have a pretty big positive net spend. Really wish they'd stop dicking around with Dahoud, Chilwell, and Zielinski. There are other central mids and left backs. Also its fucking absurd that Sakho has his hearing today and then they still don't plan on ruling for several days. This happened back in fucking April.
Selling Benteke, Ibe, Alberto, Skrtel, and Allen for around 65m+ is pretty damn good. Especially when we have a buy back on Ibe.
This Is Anfield @thisisanfield 3h3 hours ago NEW: CONFIRMED: Jurgen Klopp signs new six-year deal with Liverpool Speaking on signing his new deal, Klopp insisted that “there is much to do and much to achieve” in his time at Anfield. “It’s hard to express in words how honoured myself, Zeljko and Peter feel by the commitment shown in us by the ownership and the club in general,” he said. “We are very much at the beginning of our journey, but to already have the connection we have with this very special place is incredible. “I am the first to recognise that with this great commitment comes a great responsibility. “All of our coaching careers we have looked to make teams and clubs better, with the ultimate goal of making the supporters proud and happy.”
Tony Evans is either brain damaged or not a Liverpool fan anymore. http://www.espnfc.com/english-premi...uld-invest-more-in-the-club-than-jurgen-klopp
Pretty dumb to comment when you don't know the details of the deal. He also misses the point of locking up Assistants and taking away Klopp's leverage by getting it done early.
