Barrett saying we've bid 32M for Alex Teixeira...

[manwithnoname]

Eh ? Did the club go and make a statement then or is this just Barrett blabbering on ?

If Chelsea, City, Bayern or whoever really want him, they could easily outbid us and offer more money I suppose. It's not s if we haven't seen our targets go elsewhere for that reason, and many others that haven't been entirely money-related too; Delle Ali, Sanchez, Willian, Costa, Mkhtaryan...it's a long list.

But Klopp and our Brazilian contingent should help, plus we made the first move and he will also know he's a certain starter at Liverpool - which seems to be very important to him - and he maybe wouldn't be at some other clubs.

He's so good he's being kept out of the national team by Firmino.

That's probably a good reason why he'd come. If we can get Firmino and Lucas into the squad, he'll be a dead cert.

Guess where Barrett got his information from.

Guess where Barrett got his information from.

Ayre probably tweeted him: "Off to Florida to try and sign Teixeira for £25m. For the lulz!!!!111 Keep it schtumm. YOLO"

Ian Ayre ?

It can't be true sky sports news ain't confirmed it

 

[hmmmmm1]

Twitter rumours he pulled a Hamstring in training today

 

[peterhague]

Not that Barrett is particularly reliable mind, he's full of shit alot of the time too.

Phew! Almost forgot to remember there Mark. 👍

I arrived to this thread late and starting dishing out the likes as if Jono was gonna remove the function.

We've been crying out for Teix in the team for ages and now we could have two of them on the same team sheet. WANT WANT WANT.

@Herr Onceared, ready when you are?

 

[superchimp]

All over twitter he's done his hamstring.

Couldn't make this shit up.

I think it's a wind up...

A lot of players have left Shakhtar for big money and have all done well haven't they? Fernandinho, Willian, Douglas Costa, Mkhitayran.

Oh, your man who went to Barca failed (Chygrynskiy) but he was a defender so fuck him.

They all went for pretty huge sums of money too, they have made a FORTUNE out of transfers in the last 5 years or so.

I see a clever buy Teix sell Teix scam coming on here.
Barcelona will be getting the little Suso-alike for 85m summer after next.

Clever clever.

Who invited Dr Doom to the party?

Shakthar owner makes Abramovich look like Delia Smith:

"He took control of the club when his former business partner and suspected criminal underworld leader, Akhat Bragin, was blown up in his seat at the football club's stadium in 1995.Akhmetov, who was the vice president of Shakhtar at the time, had skipped the game where five other people were killed along with the president in the VIP directors' box."

And we've sent Ian Ayre to negotiate with him. Oh. Dear.

I'm pretty sure they have.

 

[tomasjj]

Rather we built from the back.

We've given Migs a new contract and signed Caulker on loan. What more do you want?

You need to consider the possible upside

His basis would seem to be their moneybags owner. But that logic flies in the face of all the other players they have sold.

Someone will buy him this window is my guess.

 

[Mystic]

Ian Ayre ?

Well, someone at the club, yeh.

"Sorry lads, the Teixeira deal fell through. Mysteriously, I also appear to have advanced radiation poisoning"

A lot more, a different kind of more!

Isn't it pretty standard that a player gets a random injury when they're subject to a transfer bid so that the manager doesn't have to explain why he isn't playing.

 

[doctor_mac]

Bongaloid is here!


It's a sign!! He will be ours!

That's a ridiculous article. He says we'll have a struggle to sign him, because the owner is really rich, then he bungs in everything he knows about the owner, then he repeats the claim that it'll be a struggle. Lazy and irrelevant.
