    Liverpool

    You haven't followed my posts in the Serie A thread the last 2 seasons. I had always been on the Reijnders train. Knew the guy already when he was at Alkmaar

    Liverpool

    True, my bad! Rodri (if he is his former self) - Reijnders is a truly WC duo deep As for the rest of the XI (all of them): Doku Savinho Marmoush are top (not yet WC), but all the rest are limited in different ways IMO. City at best have only 2 WC players, and another 3 elite players, in their...

    Liverpool

    Pep will not school anyone next season. He is currently far behind both Pool and ARsenal. On par with Chelsea IMO. No WC signing this summer, while losing WC players in KdB, and WC core of the past (Bernardo, Gundo) being old and dusted. Holes in defense and GK that are not filled Doku and...

    'Hope' EXACTLY UTD can hope whatever they want. As we hoped to find buyers for Fati to cover his entire salary, or hoped the same for FDJ some time back, or NOW hoping the same for Stegen. We can only hope, as you say, but have no power or leverage in such situation. Same goes for UTD...

    Maybe 50% is a stretch, but them playing 25% is bare minimum. Rich Aston Villa made UTD pay 25% last spring. Don't whitewash Deco's incompetence

    Liverpool

    Pool this summer: - Wirtz - Kerkez - Frimpong - Etikite done already with: - Guehi - Rodrygo - another attacker to follow soon. Of course they lost Jota, they lost Trent, they are selling Diaz and Nunez, and they might lost Konate to Madrid by the end of the window. But still an impressive...

    They wanted him out on ANY conditions, as long as they could get rid of EVEN a fraction of his huge wages. You haven't followed the news at UTD the last year or so. No, we didn't try it, because we have a clueless softie as SD. If badass Allemany were still around, I could assure you he would...

    You don't see the future, do you? We will exercise the option next summer, as he will kick some ass this season under Flick

    Dude, BOTH the player AND the club wanted him out. Sends a message to whom?

    Force UTD to cover at least 5m gross (if not more) of his wages. Force UTD to an even lower fee for the option to buy. That's ABC for an SD that has ALL the leverage in the negotiations, while his counterpart has 0 leverage

    LMAOL, :lol: you have no clue right? Sending Rashford in the stands, while he still receives 19m gross, does nothing for them. You don't get foundational problem for them: They want to get rid of his wages... Stands is only a good tactic against players that neither want to leave nor to renew...

    No, AGAIN: UTD have 0 cards in this case - Player up for sale, out of the plans ->depreciates his market value highly - Player on huge and 'out of the market' wages ->minimizes, if not eradicates, possible buyers - Player himself wanting to go - Player himself wanting to go ONLY to a specific...

    *IF* we are in the 1:1, which is seriously doubt, judging from Fatporta's CONSTANT big fat lies year in year out

    They are also desperate. See inteviews by Ratcliff the last year or so, where he warns UTD are in danger of bankruptcy. Certain high-earners like RAshford, Sancho, etc. they put on sale primarily, if not solely, because of their wages It's ON Deco that he didn't force UTD to pay at least 5m...

    They don't have any card mate. It was just like us with all the players we wanted/want to get rid of on high salaries. We would accept whatever we could That's on fuckin Deco

    It's a paycut from 19m gross to 14m gross.

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    OK, if Romano's info is correct, it's not as sweet a deal as it was originally thought. 14m gross is not 10m gross.... Looks close, but on wage structure there is a big difference. I blame fuckn '0 SD skills' Deco for that... Obviously the player reduced from 19m gross to 14m gross. The rest...

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    He is the next in the tradition and historical lineage of the great 10s at Barca. Ansu was unfortunate, but I am sure Lamine will cement his name there: 10-Kubala (1950s) 10-Suarez (1960s) 10-Maradona (1980s) 10-Romario (early 1990s) 10-Rivaldo (late 1990s, early 2000s) 10-Ronaldinho (mid...

    Unfortunate that all the old pictures uploaded in various threads have vanished now. Is there a way to find them?
