Qwiss people have been saying the striker market is dry since 2012.
MistaT Xhaka did a lot of sliding into LB to cover for Zinchenko too.
Gazza M yep all while other clubs have been signing strikers. Its frustrating.
Qwiss was easily the best show in its heyday. But everything has a time.
This guy is Tier 1 for Liverpool, big fee but unfortunately a great signing for them.
Well this worked out great for AC Milan.
Is this kid that good? A lot of teams seem to want him. Or maybe just a great agent?
They cannot stop buying players. Who is this guy ? 80 mil
We will get Rodrygo, right?
Williams is also in talks with barca now, per romano. how gnarly is this guys wages if barca and bayern are both in for him?
around 230k/pw. I'd normally say we should be all over this, but this guy seems to have been worked over by barca for years. I would have liked us to shoot our shot at least
Gazza M I think a lot of clubs want him but his first choice seems to be Barca, he's Spanish so I get it.
Fuck it. Get Gordon or someone else who will want to come here. I’m really annoyed by Nico id his plan is to collect a check at Barca.
Claudius he's been pretty open about it to be fair. Everyone knows he wants Barça, but they are who they are and love to cry poor.
Claudius I feel your frustration. when it comes to LW, it looks like we'll either be getting a B level contributor like mbeumo, eze or sane, or have to roll the dice on a riskier higher potential option like nusa
Gazza M Eze is S-tier.
Yeah, but Barca also said that last year was the time they were really going to be interested in him, but he didnt want to move yet and they chose Olmo instead. And that 12m/year that they offered last year may not still be on the table for him. for 230/week, we should give that a shot.
Don't want if money is his priority. Plus he'll always want to be else where
Loads of players out there that actually want to be here.
Coombs what makes you say that? he's good, and could probably do an OK job as an an LCM as well
Gazza M well, I'd rather buy Eze than Nico Williams, anyway. Kid is more proven in the league, supremely technical, physical, creative, more versatile, has end product, and has what seems like great character.
Fuck you, Nico.
He just wasn't ever that interested in us - seemingly Edu didn't realise that but given the relative lack of links this summer (in comparison to last year), feels like Berta has moved on a bit more quickly.
Don Pacifico , feels like Berta has moved on a bit more quickly.
Yeah we've been linked to him but not like last summer where it was obvious he was our first choice and we were actively pursuing him.
He's really good mates with Yamal and clearly his preference is to stay in Spain. Nothing to get overly upset about, the release clause was very reasonable which made the deal more appealing
JazzG Yeah we've been linked to him but not like last summer where it was obvious he was our first choice and we were actively pursuing him.
Yeah, I don't remember that being true. What reliable reports were there then that we made any bid or had any proper discussions with either his team of club?
