Watching the women's world Cup has been a breath of fresh air. 

Mens football in this country is fucked. It is going to be dominated by state owned clubs with no end in sight, and unless your club is owned by state owners.. it is impossible to compete.

I would rather be physically sick every day for the rest of my life than see Liverpool football club owned by an Arab state.. so that's me done...

Its been nice getting to know you all on here.. great bunch of lads/lasses.. but I have watched my last game of men's football so will probably never post on here again. 

What a shame our beautiful game has been ruined.

January can always be a bit hit and miss, for most clubs. 

Risky to gamble on the defence. Maybe see plenty of high-scoring games with the kind of attack you have...

I agree.

Makes you wonder what's left in the kitty to improve the defence...

Not much I imagine.

I think Klopp will gamble on the defence for now and then overhaul it next summer, or even in January.

Just a hunch.

Do you lot really think FSG said "OMG.. quick.. here's £110m .. go and sign that dude from Brighton before Chelsea do"?

That is totally opposite from how they conduct business.

You've not been linked all summer. Only Chelsea really have. 

But suddenly this has been kept quiet all along amongst all the links and leaks that get bandied around and you've managed to get him. I don't buy that for a second, sorry

 

Honestly mate, have a look at our recent history regarding signing players.. we very rarely leak anything until a deal is done.

It's happened already this summer with the guy who's name I'm not going to attempt to spell 

5 minutes ago, Stan said:

Or maybe Liverpool shat the bed and didn't want Chelsea to get him. 

Come on, £110m is madness. 

When have FSG 'shat the bed' and splurged that kind of money to stop another club getting a player?

Nah.. This has been going on behind the scenes all the.while. 

Well well well, what a turn up for the books!

Three signings that give us arguably one of the best midfields in Europe.. All in one window.

Make no mistake, this wasn't just a flash in the pan late bid by us. It will have been worked on between us, Brighton and the agent for months. Possibly using Romeo as a smokescreen ... 

Or maybe not? I've got a feeling we still might get Romeo .. ooohhh the scenes if we do .. lovely.

Maybe FSG aren't the horrible monsters after all?

It's too much money for a bloke in his 30's.

Spurs have had Bayerns pants down and shoved it up their shitta..

It’s over.

I feel broken, crushed. Daniel Levy has blood on his hands. 

It's Kane that wants the move is it not?

Can't there be a Saudi political thread opened?

Come on here to read about arguably LFC's most successful captain leaving.. and had to scroll through pages of wannabee politicians talking about something totally off-topic.  

Thierry Henry about Stevie G:

“This guy, it pains me to look at him knowing that he didn’t win the league. I’m not saying that to be sarcastic, understand me well,  Stevie G didn’t win the league’, when I say it, it sounds weird.

“That doesn’t change the impact, what he could he transmit, how he used to transcend people, the energy, the aura, the attitude.

“This guy, when he was on form, even when he wasn’t on, he used to try to find a way to motivate people. To get the crowd behind him; to get players that you might have thought were not that great, suddenly because he told them or tackled someone or smashed the ball in from 35 yards, everyone is like, ‘we will follow this guy’.”

“This what I’m saying, it’s not so much about titles, it is  but it’s also about, do you inspire people? What do you transmit? How do you transcend people?”

“When I think about Liverpool, the older generation will give me other names, King Kenny, Ian Rush, but, for me, he is Liverpool

I’d prefer to not do business with them too tbh. But if they’re coming in and turning our players heads and the owners are going to do the business with them I want us getting as much money from the cunts as possible.

I don’t think it’s really in the leagues interest to just accept the Saudi clubs doing what Chinese clubs were doing. I don’t think they’ve got the same risk as China’s govt pulling the rug completely out from the league. But the Saudi government is good at turning investment into influence, so I worry about what this means for the future of football. MBS having an ownership interest in the PGA probably wasn’t something anyone expected.

They already own a few politicians, so fuck knows what else they want from the UK.

Can't disagree with any of that mate. Football is fucked.. you can see it coming I mile off.

Oh sorry we should have let them have him for free, sorry to offend 

Not saying we should sell him for free... we shouldn't be dealing with them at all. 

You're OK with it, I'm not.

No big deal mate.

54 minutes ago, Stan said:

I don't think it's 'accepting' the money, but if they're paying it, might as well rinse them for as much as possible.

Agree it's all opinions!

Yeah it is mate. Just does my head in when people claim to be anti sport washing, horrible evil bastards in one post, but then wanting sport washing horrible evil bastards money the next. 

In my eyes it's one or the.other.

Again, just my feelings on the matter.. doesn't make me right. 

26 minutes ago, Stan said:

Would you rather someone go on the cheap to an enemy, or rather you rip them off for as much as you can?

All I know is.. I can't slag off them horrible murdering cunts.. but then be happy accepting their filthy horrible money.

Each to their own tho. As I said, it's only opinions.

Sure you can? What is the alternative? Let it happen for free? At least something good can be made from a bad situation. Life isn’t fatalistic and black/white thinking isn’t productive.

 

I'm open to everyone's opinion mate.. im not trying to start a fight.

It's just how I feel.

Eh? 
 

Saying that you hoping the club fleece somebody you hate is not hypocritical in the slightest. 

Isn't it?

Maybe it's just me.. but I'm not comfortable going against everything they are, but then happy to take their money. 

It's morals and opinions... no big deal. 

1 minute ago, Spike said:

What are you talking about? Have what both ways?

Go back and read the chat mate

5 minutes ago, Spike said:

You think he is happy about this?  

Nope... cant have it both ways though mate.

You can't say "I've lost all respect for Hendo moving to them murdering bastards"

And then say "hope we get as much money as we can from them murdering bastards"

It’s pretty shit when the last 2 captains we have are players I love but I’ve lost so much respect for Gerrard, palling around with known cartel members & now selling himself for this regime… and it looks like Henderson’s going there.

Hope we can extract a kings ransom out of these dickheads at least. 

So you despise them and everything they stand for... but happy to take their dirty money?

Sound.

I'm not fuming at all mate. It's all bollocks.. just footballing politics.

we are not rich by FFP constraints we are middle of the pack.  put into context 100-105m is absolute max, Liverpool have past that and have more to blow.   F FP ensure the status quo is preserved.

Do a little research.. then come back.

Man City are set to retain their place at the top of Deloitte’s Money League - an annual profile of the highest revenue generating clubs in world football - for a third year in succession and widen the gap on Real Madrid. 

LOAD. OF. BOLLOCKS!

Man City DO NOT generate more money than every club in world football... they don't even generate more money than  2 other clubs in England.

Cooking the books really doesn't count 

You can surely understand the low offer?

It's either take £70m or lose him for nothing next season. The first offer was never going to be ground- breaking.

Thanks for sharing that @The Palace Fan, was lovely to watch!

Milner is probably our best free transfer of all time... up there with the best free transfers in Premier league history. 

I'm gutted he's gone! Will be a massive loss around the club.
