This has to mean that at least one of our attackers is leaving, right?
Origi? Minamino?

I'd keep Mini, he can slot in and do a job, but is developing a bit of a knack for scoring an occasional goal. Considering he'd be sixth choice behind Firmino now, and mainly used for the cups and to rest players when we're winning games, I think thats fine.
 
Also this hopefully spells an end to Ox on the wing, not that i'm particularly happen to see him in midfield instead.
 
Diaz in now and Carvalho in the summer would be great for our strike force in the long term. Presume at least one of Mane or Firmino will go in the summer now.

Still leaves us needing to beef up CM in the summer but very positive move!

If that's where he's going to be I'd rather give that slot to the likes of Gordon or A.N.Other youngster and bank the Mini money whilst we stil can.

Agreed, I think Firmino will leave in the summer. He has a year left, and Italy is a place he could leave to have a nice few years - loads of older players seem to do really well in Serie A. Bobby has no injury issues and is a top class trainer - so he should still have some good football left in him. I'd be sad to see him leave - what a player he's been for us. Hopefully we get about 20 million.

Mane I can see us giving a shorter extension, say 2-3 years, provided he accepts of course. Don't necessarily think Mane is done at the top level - his explosiveness is still there. I think the increased competition and playing fewer games should help him get his productivity back.

I mean, he's scored 2 in 2 recently. I'm happy for ox as 5th choice winger
 
Reduced from £60m to €60m

Maybe we misheard what Porto wanted. Or maybe Bascombe is talking shite.



I guess the original 60M quoted was not including the add-ons? Anyway, all of that is academic at this point. What I care about is signing great players that can move us forward.
 
Surefire ways you know a signing is on and he’s going to be good :

1. King Binny has stats and graphics that make him look good
2. Rurikbird rates him
3. It’s happened quickly and relatively quietly
4. MomoWASboss doesn’t openly hate him
5. Dreamie is nowhere to be seen to fuck everything up
 
You've got to imagine this means the end of 1 of the front 3.

Bobby, Mane or perhaps even Salah for a big fee (if he ends up being too expensive and Diaz has a storming start to his LFC career)

Well… all we need to do to open up a spot in the squad of 25 for a non-homegrown player is de-register a player who could loosely be described as a keeper, who is also German.

Maybe we actually keep the rest of the players together to have a big squad?

I hope @Dreambeliever is ok ... he's been very quiet, though thankfully active on the insta where he seems happy! 🙂
 
Bye bye Sadio.
Yeah looks likely now. we have three players competing for that left wing spot. Jota, Sadio and now Diaz.
Unless Jota is now seen as a false 9 or striker?
You'd think we'd buy someone for the right wing.
 
Seriously though, how are we paying for this transfer unless we're in the process of selling another player for close to the same amount?
