Fair point. But, as already pointed out (Cobs?), it could have been the other way around, i.e. if you want him now, we’re going to charge you a premium. Also, I do think we’re underestimating how much Klopp wanted him to go. I remember back in august when he made a comment in a press conference along the lines of “it’s the owners that make decision” and we all assumed that meant the decision to sell (and he wanted to keep him) but it could just as well have meant the decision to keep him... Si Hughes article seems to suggest he would rather have let him go.
