What about the others. Balotelli, Benteke, Alonso. In todays market we should be able to get £60m for the three. Allen's looking good we should be able to £15m for him. Lucas £5m
With that we but a decent DM
We're selling Alonso AGAIN ? We never learn do we.
 
Martial is about three times the player of Origi currently.

That may change but there is no arguing the fact that he is vastly superior at the moment.

Yes there is. "Superior" I'll give you (I rate Martial highly and am nervous about him and Ibrahimovic together) but "vastly" is exaggerated.
 
I don't get why people think martial is particularly sensational. He's a good player, but he's not particularly a great finisher, not a great crosser, he is quick, and decent technically.

I don't see much between them when they're both in form
 
I think that underrates him TBH. From what I've seen he's an excellent finisher, and crossing isn't the main thing expected of a striker (unless you're Woy Hodgson telling Kane to play wide).
 
Martial is a very good player. He has excellent feet and blistering acceleration. The only poor game Clyne had this season was in the EL when Martial gave him a torrid time.

He might not play out wide left under Mourinho.

I'd be surprised if he played centrally, doesn't seem the right type of player for that. And he'll have Zlatan in the way, too.
 
Sinclairs fee from Watford seems to be done, we'll recieve 4 mill £ appaz. Thats a very good fee for him.

From TIA

The 19-year-old opted to move to Vicarage Road ahead of 2016/17, and has signed a five-year deal with the Hornets.
As Sinclair is under the age of 24, Liverpool were entitled a compensation fee for their role in his development, risking the possibility of a lengthy tribunal.
But following what the club described as “amicable and professional discussions,” a fee of £4 million has been agreed.

Watford FC@WatfordFC 1h1 hour ago
OFFICIAL: #watfordfc has agreed terms with @LFC over the transfer of Jerome Sinclair. Welcome, @JSinclair_48!
 
It's a good fee but it isn't OTT. Sinclair has talent and in an ideal world I'd have liked to have kept him and had Klopp work with him.

I think Thierry Henry comparisons are valid, up to a point. Martial is also a tricky and pacy winger with unusually cool and clinical finishing ability, which makes you think that with years and maturity he can develop into a devastating centre-forward, mirroring Henry's development under Wenger. But I have trouble seeing this happening under Mourinho – as far I remember he likes to play with either more orthodox wingers (Robben, Duff, Gudjonssen) or hard-working strikers (Eto'o, Pandev) moved to the wing. Can't see Martial playing centrally with him and he might not be hard-working enough to play on the wing for Mourinho's liking.

Can you really call Gudjonssen a 'orthodox winger'? He was more of a AM/ST
 
Its not a transfer window until we're linked with Tello AGAIN.

TELLO TO LIVERPOOL?
Liverpool
have joined the race to sign Barcelona man Cristian Tello, according to Corriere dello Sport.
The 24-year-old has struggled to break into the first team at Barcelona and has enjoyed loan spells at Porto and Fiorentina.

Yes, we seem to have been linked with Tello repeatedly. I'm surprised he isn't 34 he's been linked with us for so long. Is he Nigerian?

Oh come on, it's not as bad as Arda Turan, who has now had his head cryogenically frozen so that he when he does finally join us in 2097, all we have to do is re-attach it to a cyborg body and he can join Lucas in the LFC engine room.
 
Witzel would be a fucking boss signing. The link is via the echo but they admit it is tenuous;

Liverpool are today linked with a big money move for Belgium stalwart Axel Witsel - but it's once again reports in Italy who link the Reds with a £30m bid.
Reds fans better have a pinch of salt at the ready - because transfer rumour-mongers Tuttomercatoweb list Liverpool as a potential suitor for Zenit St Petersburg midfielder Witsel.

That would have me tumescing and no mistake.

Yes Turan became the new Simao who was also linked with us throughout his entire playing career.

There's also loads of reports saying we are "willing to spend £25m" on Dahoud. Now I'm naturally a pessimist about this sort of signing, and don't expect either to happen, but I still take some solace in the idea that we might be willing to spend a large amount of money on a central midfielder.

Yeah, I agree. Witsel, Hamsik, Dahoud; we're being linked with high energy quality midfielders who actually have a goal in them too. Would be nice.

Witsel only has one year left on his contract. Cant see him going for 30 mill
