Liverpool Sign Clyne (Confirmed)

[Mors]

Sky sports reporting this 10mill bid too now. Hopefully we go back for him and get this deal done, he's much better than the last 3 we signed from them.

 

[jexykrodic]

Do you mean that as always he should be focused on training and coaching his team?

If it was good enough for Mr Benitez it's good enough for Mr Rodgers!

 

[reuque]

Maybe FSG purposely lowballed the Clyne bid to lull Rodgers into a false sense of job security.

Well actually that's unlikely, but that's what I'd like it to be. Quietly scheming behind the scenes negotiating with Klopp while Rodgers is duped into thinking he'll be calling the shots next season here.

I've looked at that three times now & each time the accent I used to read it in my head changed.

 

[FoxForceFive]

It'll be an uphill battle to bring in Clyne.

Remarkable punnage sir. Well done.

I still look at him and think 'Tommy Carcetti' from The Wire.

He looks like the bloke in Calvary.

 

[mark1975]

He looks like he should be taunting someone a second time.

 

[Hansern]

Utd seem to have dropped their interest and could be after Alves.

Lets get this done!

 

[gkmacca]

He's like...a young Johnson!

Lets hope they get alves. That will be their weak point throughout next season.

Nah johnson is definitely better going forward, but clyne can actually defend. Which makes me think it can't be a rodgers signing ;-).

Rodgers is an equal opportunities coach. He can get any kind of defender playing shit.

Only saw a shit Lovren in that clip.

Oh look its another player that played well against us that we are looking to sign.. ??? Is that how our scouting network really works ???


Though tbf.. I won't complain too much about this one...

 

[cloggypop]

You will.

 

[6TimesaRed]

You will.

Nah he is quality... The only thing I can complain about is that we really should be looking to get Schneirderlin if we are going to persist with signing Southampton players...

 

[cloggypop]

You've started already.

Would Ian Ayre be our master of coin?

 

[tomasjj]

Yes please!

 

[dantes]

Manquillo would have been fine. This is an unnecessary ejaculation of money to replace a good player with one who could potentially/likely become instantly shit for us.

He is not a good attacker. His supposed defensive ability will be horribly exposed by our "coaching". Then what do we have left? A trip to St Marys where we get the ever loving piss taken out of us again.

 

[leftpeg]

Southampton want £15m apparently.

 

[hmmmmm1]

So we will spend the next 2 weeks negotiating the payment structure, whilst some other team sweeps in to complete the deal in one day.

 

[Mystic]

Give it to them, he's more than worth it.

 

[StevieM]

Is the theory not that we should sign whoever Southampton plan to replace Clyne with?

 

[Frogfish]

Clyne is an excellent young FB, fast and accurate in attack and better than anything we have when defending, I'd love to see him at Anfield.

 

[Rosco]

Not anymore - their transfer guru left for Spurs

I would imagine Koeman was behind the Eredivisie purchases at least.

 

[vikas]

The same Southampton fan who told me Lovren was made to look good by Jose Fonte and that he'd get found out before he joined us and said that Shaw would be entirely out of his depth prior to moving to United does actually rate Clyne!
