Wish LFC would come clean when stories like this break! Comments such as ...."respecting his privacy" do anything but!

wilai Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Anyway, I am more concerned about a retrospective 3 match ban for Salah. Threw an arm out against Stoke but didn't connect. Should be ok but Harry Kane might chuck in another appeal and you know what'll happen then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that I would be confident if a win at home to Brighton resulted in CL qualification. I would be even more confident if it was against Stoke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 On 4/29/2018 at 11:38 PM, champers said: Should bump his value up. Buyout clause? Firminho and Salah to replace Benzema and Bale would be my guess. RM are overdue a couple of marquee signings. Your owners will be quids/dollars in. I don't know where you get your info from but Firminho's put pen to paper and Real Madrid already have their replacement for Bale, from within, Marco Asensio. Bit behind the times Champs!!!

BangrakBob Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Firmino’s effectiveness and importance would be halved in most other teams. For a start he is not a true number nine, many of our attacks and goals come from him breaking up play in our own half. The way our front 3 play is unquie and it requires a chemistry of physical and mental attributes that are only found when those 3 are put together.

Firmino dropping deep and defending from the front - nothing too original. Salah plays wide cuts in on his left - many teams play with widemen on their wrong side. Unique? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you would wouldn't you R2D2. I see it as money well invested in a City squad that's runaway with the Premier, won the Caraboa cup and looks most likely to win more in the coming seasons.

You need to spend that to get some proper quality as your top men were nearly men where elite European comps are concerned.

Not true.. I hear a lot of journalists talk about him with mock envy because he gets so many scoops. This is an age of <deleted> journalism in which so much is regurgitated, so don't hate on the likes of Castles and that David Ornstein who actually try and break their own stories. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're 3rd in the net spend table and 3rd in the prem league. Seriously, what is that proving? Is it that your owners want to be like Swansea and Sot'on? Or that you are the 4th biggest spenders but have sold a lot of your best players. Why pick 2014, does that suit some stat? Honestly Bob, I really find it bemusing showing stats like that, as it doesn't tell anything apart from what you want it to. Personally, I'm happy no matter what we spend as long as we remain financially stable and not up to our necks in debt. Football clubs aren't meant to generate money by selling players alone, you generate more by winning things and becoming more marketable. It pains me to say it but United's business model is probably the best around and their owners probably don't give a hoot on net spend of players as long as they are generating cash elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
