Approx £142 million with add-ons. He's a good player but he wanted to leave and however much we say otherwise is not irreplaceable. Let's see how the club spend the money. Mahrez is a good player.
In some ways it's more significant as your marginal utility of the remaining £500 of a £1000 maybe more than £50000 of a potential £100000. With marginal utility being the value you derive from the cash you have to spend.
If they get Griezmann in Jan then surely the budget will be available? Agree with the valuation. VvD and Keita are tbc. But overall yes. Rodgers signings don't seem to be tailored to a particular playing ethos.
Rumblings on the internet of Trapp coming to us from PSG. https://www.google.co.in/amp/s/le10sport.com/football/mercato/mercato-psg-kevin-trapp-aurait-pris-une-decision-radicale-pour-son-avenir-349384/amp
Not your point JA I do realise. Just that I am not convinced that VVD alone will solve the issues at the back. Edit: I missed Matip off the original list. Maybe I need to concede I am making an irrelevant point and move on.
Klopp has had 4 transfer windows and he's bought Klavan, Robertson and Karius into our defence. I get your point. But the "Klopp, Liverpool's scouting team aren't in some way also culpable for our defensive woes" rhetoric is not entirely accurate.
Look he's 27. These are his contract years. The pay ceiling at City is higher. On the other hand he comes here and sorts the back out he'll be a hero. Still think money wins through.
Hmm ok we will have to agree to disagree. Not seen enough of Can to say he can play that role. But we can both agree we need to improve in that number 6 position.
I really hope he is the 'other options', instant upgrade. He is rumoured to be on 50k per week and wants double that. Apparently is not possible at spurs due to their wage structure. But should be here.
