Rumour that the Saudi club thought there was a realistic chance of no transfer fee.
I can see this falling flat very soon.
The team still seems to give 5% extra when he's on the pitch.If he really is Gerrard's number one target then surely the club would be willing to pay. It isn't like they are short of money.
For the record, I don't want to see Henderson leave this summer. I think we would regret it.
I mean we could just keep Irish Kev and not register Adrian.
We won't be planning for Henderson to leave. I doubt the club want to sell him (well, Klopp anyway).
If he leaves it is because he wants to (have lots of money).
My guess is that Klopp will try to talk him round.
Too low imo. And I know he's 33 but still.We want a 10 mill £ fee according to Romano.
Exactly this.. i was us to be the cunts that everyone else is..10m reeks of "ok you can go, as we're nice". I get he's been a loyal servant to the club so we're being amenable.....but fuck me its the short sightedness thats blighted us for years
Jurgen "too loyal, but maybe not as loyal as it seems seeing as he said so himself" Klopp
You don't plan for any departures other than those whose contracts are expiring and it's known the club won't offer new deals.....pretty sure Sadio wasn't planned either.
Haha true50% would be $300k
Koulibaly went for 17m we should be looking for more than this.
Yep.More than what Koulibaly went? Based on what exactly. Both are absolute duds at this point in their career.
Brozovic also went for 15-20m....should be looking at more than what they paid for him too?
Not sure about that, maybe was on his mind but it came weeks after the season had ended.I am pretty sure Mane told the club quite a long time in advance that he wanted to move on.
And they're both younger than HendersonMore than what Koulibaly went? Based on what exactly. Both are absolute duds at this point in their career.

Yep.
And they're both younger than Henderson
We won't sell all three in this window.Let's say we lose Fabs, Hendo and Thiago. How do you replace that experience whilst trying to maintain a homegrown quota? Gallagher, JWP?
They aren't senseless. Yet offer 700k a week in wages.Yeah few years younger, much better players....certainly in Brozovic's case.
It's like fans believe the Saudi's are a bunch of fools we can mug off.....they may be senseless when it comes to their human rights activity but believe you me where business is concerned, whilst they have more money than sense....they aren't senseless.
Not sure about that, maybe was on his mind but it came weeks after the season had ended.
& in any case if he left tomorrow, that'd still give us a month before the season starts to prepare and find a replacement......more than enough time.
