HK85 267 Posted April 5, 2017 How can they determine what is and isn't an academy signing? Liverpool could just sign a 16/17 year old kid and say he's a first team player. Stick him on the bench a few times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mel81x 1,913 Posted April 5, 2017 If you get into the nitty gritty of this I think the officials have done us a favour here. Maybe the year gives our scouts a chance to roam Europe properly and learn something about how to get players signed from out there. Unless I have read it wrong.

Mancs started the chant and we know what they're referring to when they sing it... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
