Milan have initiated contacts for Mangala. Milan are willing to offer �18m while City won't sell him for less than �30m.

Christian Benteke should be off once this move is completed.
If we are talking about No.9, I can think of some more.
My favourite is still Ronaldo. Most complete No. 9 imo. Strength, speed, skill, technique.
May I also add Torres? He was world class with Liverpool.

Don't think so. If Bravo is in, fully expect Hart to leave.
In other news, Palace is going to splash the cash from the sale of Bolasie on Benteke. They are also interested in signing Berahino and Young, according to Mirror

This just reminds me that one season Suarez was being targeted by RM, but next season he went to Barca...
Frankly, it all started with rumour of Pep not rating Hart. Think I shared before. As for who he wants as No1, I heard is Ter Stegen but there is also rumour of Bravo.
Just have to wait and see. Need Hart to move first.

Over �5m is really stupid if true
Not saying Arsenal is wrong to stick to their valuation but it really has to be applied on a case by case. If he is going to improve the team as the starter, overpaying by �5m is really not much.
Of course if he is just for a back up, then maybe can save the funds for other more crucial position.
Even FSG has learnt. We overpaid so many players from Southampton just because the managers want them in as starters

IMO, 25mil for a current German International, 24 years old seems a fair price in this current market.
Chelsea also looking for CB and was quoted in excess of 40mil for Koulibaly so I can see them scooping in on Mustafi if Arsenal hesitate further, don't say I never warn Wenger
25m will be reasonable..... there were reports he is in london...... all the time i suspect is meet chelsea not arsenal......... lol

if is 25m i really hope he buys.... i don't see how he will reject because of 5m euros

Actually I am ok with the first bit that he chooses to perservere with Moreno. Because he works with him on a daily basis. So I cannot say I know Moreno as a player better than Klopp does. As for the second bit, about not dipping into the market, I tends to disagree. No matter what, we probably need a proper backup.
If really want to use Milner, he is more suited to back up for Clyne actually as he is right footed. Notice a couple of time vs Barcelona, he would cut in to bring the ball to his right foot before delivering a cross. Compared to a natural left footer who can whip in the cross straightaway, the attacking movement will be faster.
On the defensive sense, I do agree Milner is slight better due to his experience.
In this current market, we have no choice, as long you are in premier league and top teams, ppl will squeeze u dry..
Worse if you see buying from another PL club. Dry liao still squeeze some more

wah Chelsea is dumping Fabregas, putting him up for sale

most probably will go to Juventus to replace Pobga
�
or will Liverpool bid for him? after all it lacks a good CM organizer after Gerrard left
"Poor" Fabregas, apparently he was offered to Juve, PSG and RM.
�
Meanwhile, Ah Seng is playing his waiting game with Mustafi whose deal is getting more complicated as Valencia apparently does not want to lose both Mustafi and Abdennour, who may be heading to Everton but was also offered to Arsenal.

Ah Seng has his Plan C in the much cheaper Johnny Evans. But this deal would� infuriate rather than appease gunner supporters for more reasons than financial one..

Ya, posted before that Everton's interest in Abdennour has impact on Arsenal's pursuit of Mustafi. Valencia are more keen to let go of Abdennour and see Mustafi as an integral part to their team.
What this mean is that Arsenal likely have to pay through the nose for Mustafi by given Valencia an offer they can't refuse.
I wonder if he would try a Plan D, by going for Sakho. Remember early last season when Sakho wasn't given a look in by BR? Then out of the blue Sakho was given a new contract while not playing? Arsenal was pushing for him and forced Liverpool's hands to tie him down.
But if they really want to try, need to be fast. Klopp unlikely to entertain any transfer out late in the window
I remembered the reason that RM did not move for Ronaldinho was he was too ugly for a Galactico.
�
Ah Seng might think that Sakho's playing style is too awkward for his gunners? ![[:(]](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_t07h6s5G3tN9hR0QRcRqylp8XIR5xeFx65AfuCwCHprofmipmBjEvZBMQfTz9lbVlyxgQ08OcpvYx7caFJXp07BagDv7q4sVvLkfCMa_Ec-IcxxHvTaqvqE7xkeD4tlhZHxnk=s0-d)

Barca and RM said they are not interested in him

so guess Juventus, PSG or stay in England are the options for him... or he can still go back Spain and join Valencia or At Madrid?

still only 29... not as good as before but still a good CM imo
I remembered the reason that RM did not move for Ronaldinho was he was too ugly for a Galactico.
Ah Seng might think that Sakho's playing style is too awkward for his gunners?
Hmm, if he does, why bother to try last summer?
This is not reported but told to be by a credible source.
Personally, I certainly hope Wenger just go for Plan C. Still rate Sakho

Although Mustafi remains priority and he is keen to join, Arsenal might be forced to consider cheaper alternatives such as Omer Toprak & Simon Kjaer
Rumours that Ballotelli ask to join Italian club Sassuolo may not be concluded.
Goal.com
Really hope his move to Seria A can conclude soon. Any club will do.
Gabigol is very competitive and ambitious but discovered Inter Milan undergoes a transition after being sold to Suning group. In addition, Gabigol was told that Inter Milan do not have a very competitive team and power to fight for titles now.
[UOL Esporte]
This might explains why the agent is working hard again.
Valencia needs to recoup �10m to meet FFP. Insisting on �30m on Mustafi as he is not one who Valencia are keen to sell. Hence the hard stance.
So if Valencia managed to off load Abdennour for more than �10m, they will entertain any bid for Mustafi.
Arsenal really have to move fast if they want the player.
David Ornstein of BBC (very reliable) is saying that Arsenal is yet to agree fee with Valencia over Mustafi because they are holding funds back for a possible striker signing.
Although Mustafi remains priority and he is keen to join, Arsenal might be forced to consider cheaper alternatives such as Omer Toprak & Simon Kjaer

Finally I think, end up not strengthening any position. Next year will probably find two of the creative/attacking players leave for cheap as they are also disillusioned with the club.

The worry about this from Pool's point of view is that Palace may decide to go for Remy now from what I read cos Pardew has managed Remy before n he is much cheaper. Pool under FSG has stood firm on sales most times n got away the better eg Sterling but I'm not too sure if it will always work. My guess is they will let him go for a slightly better price n more achievable add on clauses but don't think they can get the full 32.5mil even with add ons, my 2 cents.

Agree bro. I seriously don't think Pool are looking to recoup every cents spent. I would believe a �25m with �3m of realistic addons would clinch the deal.
Pool already has an offer on the table from WBA that matched Pool's asking. They won't back down until Palace comes up with a reasonable offer. If Palace decide to walk, so be it and Benteke will have no choice but to accept a move to WBA if he still wants to play football this season.
Pay 2.5m for getting TOP 4?
Haha.
Might as well say pay double the price if they are EPL champion:)
�
CP is a real relegation candidate this season.. judging by their form in 2016 alone... they also lost their best player bolaise..�
�
so they are pretty desperate.. �Pool should play it to its advantage�
I also think he is coming to Liverpool, but to join Everton FC
Frankly, unless one of the senior CBs is leaving, I do not think there is any truth in this
Come on...where is the LB that pool needs. Surely not another CB.
I think Mustafi can play at LB. If not mistaken, thought I remember him playing at FB for Germany in the Euros though he is recognised as a CB.
Hehe, I give up liao. Will just trust Klopp on his assessment. If he think Moreno and Milner are good enough to last us this season. I will just back his decision.Come on...where is the LB that pool needs. Surely not another CB.
Mustafi I seriously think is Valencia using us to force Arsenal to act.
Also, Spanish paper Cadena reported Liverpool offered �10m+Alberto for Mustafi which was rejected, they want closer to their �25m valuation.
Who in the right mind will think that Luis Alberto is worth �15m??
Edited by Osprey23, 17 August 2016 - 10:43 PM.
Not sure how much is the release clause though
According to SER Deportivos Valencia (a radio station), Valencia are in negotiations with Liverpool over a move for Shkodran Mustafi. The biggest plus point for Valencia to deal with Liverpool is that Luis Alberto could be included in the deal going the other way.
Frankly, unless one of the senior CBs is leaving, I do not think there is any truth in this
�
Forgot where I had read a report on an interview with�Shkodran Mustafi that he was actually interested of coming to Liverpool.

I have a feeling Klopp has in mind what kind of LB he has in mind. It seems to me that he places more emphasis on the full backs offensive ability of defensive. If he wants a LB who is solid at defending, Hector is there for him to sign. Paying �20m is not beyond us but apparently we walked away.
Agree with you that maybe there isn't one who fits the profile and is available at the right price.
Klopp with the long term contract, seems to be more patient to wait for the right player. Dahoud is a good example.

Reading some reports Pool in for Dutchman Bruno Martins Indi? He is versatile as can play CB and LB but I don't think he is particularly good at going forward if I remember when he played for the Dutch national team. This guy's a real defender so maybe just rumours.

Maarten Stekelenburg was the Dutch National team goalie for many years and I felt he was up amongst the top goalies at one stage but don't know how come he lost his way and�I was surprised he ended up at Fulham and then went on loan to other teams and now back to EPL with Everton.

You can see he's quite a good goalie though maybe he's not consistent and makes errors now and then but then again which goalie doesn't? Ironically, he reminds me of Joe Hart!! Good shot stopper many a times but prone to the odd mistake.

Joe Hart is a good top GK under normal circumstances, but tends to fumble on big occasions, the recent Euro 2016 is a case in point. Man City probably is too big a shoe for him under Pep Guardiola.
�
He is like Tim Howard who didn't do well in Man U, yet did great for Everton/USA.
�
Maybe if he moves to Liverpool (I mean Everton), he will be annointed the "King"(not God) of Merseyside. �
Pool accepted Palace's bid of �27m + �5m.
Next out would be Luis Alberto. �5m to Valencia
Hope big Ben do well for CP except against Pool. So we have every chance to get that 5mil add on
�
Yah, how about he fulfils the potential and hope that we harboured when Pool signed him, which is to score against all other teams (but not incl. Pool, since we didn't expect him to score against us when we signed him, right?), and win more points - especially against the top sides. Then can help Pool too�
�
Talking of which, didn't CP and Pardew hate Ben when he came on, earned that penalty at the death and scored it to win all 3 points last season? Looks like Pool is not the only team who likes to sign players who scored against it�

Wenger claims it's tough to find�value in the transfer market and English clubs are being targeted for high prices which�is true but that doesn't mean you stop buying if you need a player.

Anyway it's not only the overseas clubs targeting English clubs but even English clubs setting high prices for their players as can be seen from Everton asking 75mil for Lukaku and WBA now asking 20mil for Evans etc. and as the clock ticks ever closer to 31/8, prices might be even higher for desperate buyers.

wah lao... quick, somebody phone Pool to hold the 32m Benteke deal, ask to raise it to at least 40m...
�
how come Pool's sale of Allen and Ibe both should be worth at least 1.5x of Evans, but sold so cheaply???
�
Somebody said the EPL market is crazy.
�
I agree totally.
also kena spoilt market by Man City, Man Utd and Chelsea
�
rather than overpaying for an average player, might as well spend�that amount of�money in the youth academy and hope one or two wonderkids can step up
In theory, yes spending on own youth academy is the best investment but can you wait for potential to be realized**? Fans are impatient, the Board is impatient and actually everyone is impatient so sadly, youth players don't get much chance esp at top clubs.
�
If I were to be a youth player, I'll select a smaller club where my chance of�breaking in to the first team�is higher but then again the rewards at the top clubs make them a�natural draw for the better youth players.
�
Lastly, yes market is being spolit by the 3 big spenders and some other clubs�as well but we're in a very practical world where if you don't pay the going rate, you don't get the players to bolster your squad and don't come crying later saying no value, we can't compete financially�etc cos it's who dares wins!

Spurs also one of the niao club.. maybe more niao than arsenal. But they lucky. Got alli for so cheap.
Eriksen. Alderweid. Wayang. Lloris all on the cheap.
No wonder they also unwilling to splurge big.
They like arsenal also looking for value.
Unfortunately competitiors are splurging like money is water.
So i can say spurs n arsenal really need to rethink or lose out further unless their value proved otherwise

confirmed. read somewhere that the top earner is Lloris at 75-80kpw ? come'on, lousy sterling already earning 180k and Fabian Delph 90k

Seriously speaking I don't treat it as low balling but niao�cos it did exceed the suspected buy out clause by 1pound. Low balling is putting in an offer well below the expected price. Wenger feels market overpriced so he won't even�bother to put in a bid whereas Levy will try his luck

If there is one other team (besides Liverpool) that I would support to win the title, it would be Arsenal.

Kinda difficult for them to maintain the same rotation for these 2 top goalkeepers whereby 1 starts the league matches and the other one starts the cup matches...� gk are supposed to start every matches to build a good understanding with the defense

Exactly! I'm not really a fan of rotating goalies but admittedly some 1st team game time needs to be given to an equal adversary. Unlike outfield players who can be played in a diff position, u can't do this for a goalie but it has been proven many times how important a 2nd goalie is so good move by Barca to get a good goalie as back up!

From Barcelona's perspective, best scenario would be both keepers fighting over the No.1 spot. However, at the end of the day, you still need to decide who is No.1.
Barcelona might adopt the same strategy of having one for league and one for cup games.

Yup, it is a critical position, if your backup is a joker, that is it... however, if u got 2 equally capable men vying for this position,one will definitely be unhappy and seek a move away, just like Diego Lopez, it was the same for him at Real Madrid and now he is equally unhappy at AC Milan...
Wenger sharing his thoughts on transfers. Worrying that English clubs will be suffocated in this 2-tier value systems. Also with the high wages paid, players will be more difficult to be offloaded and even if they are, clubs continue to subsidise their wages.
http://www.telegraph...-transfer-mark/
Last para backed up what I said previously on the criteria set by Wenger. Doesn't mean Wenger only looking at young players when looking at potential targets.
He agreed terms and passed medical before the deal fell through due to Levy interfering
Dunno why, I enjoyed the outgoing more than incoming for Pool this Window.
That's what Wenger meant I guess
[Sven Claes, Belgium HLN journalist]
Joe Hart is interested in a move to Sevilla but such a deal would mean Man City subsidising his �140,000-a-week salary. (Source: Daily Mail)
That's what Wenger meant I guess
I reckon disproportionate wage inflation is only an English phenomena and not applicable to other EU clubs other than the traditional European football powerhouses.
�
This will affect English clubs when they want to clear non performing players and this Joe Hart example is a glaring one.
�
I hope that clubs like Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs and others maintain their financial prudence, otherwise there will be nothing except bloating troubles ahead.

Feel sorry for poor Joe. Pep Guardiola means business, serious business.

It's quite obvious there would be "2 tier" markets, one for the european leagues and one for EPL.
�
Even in wet market, will one sell the provisions at the same price to a dressed up lady with maid in attendance as compared to a simply dressed housewife? It's the same in all other trades where prices are negotiable.
�
Even before the huge jump in TV money, the bottom clubs of EPL earned more than that those at or near the top of other leagues, eg Atletico and BVB.
�
Last years champion Leicester earn about 100 mil in TV money when Aresenal topped with about 110 mil by virtue of no. of live telecasts.
�
For the next 3 years, the relegated clubs will get 99 mil (then the parachute money) while the champion will get about 165 mil.
�
Arsenal last reported cash in hand according to BBC is about 220 mil.

If you want the right player at the right price, then you can wait long long. Like bro Spring said we not being Arsenal fans (had loved watching them esp during Henry and Bergkamp time)� already feel fed up. Really feel for the fans.

There are more than one way to achieve success. Investing on youth does not mean you become a selling club.
Think back. Before Man Utd started their domination in the 90s, what enabled it. Look at Barcelona. This team is built from academy, or spent millions to assembled.
i am not against spending. I am just not convinced that this is the ONLY way
DEAL DONE: Watford have signed midfielder Roberto Pereyra from Juventus on a long-term deal.

Totally agreed it's not the ONLY way. Try telling that to Wenger whose ONLY way is to buy value!
Clubs have to invest in youth for sure, supporters like nothing better than a home grown talent to work his way into the first team n that's why they often cut them more slack than a big money purchase.
That said, when your academy doesn't have a player to fill a position that requires urgent filling, u have to look at the transfer mkt to fill it n if it means paying abit more, so be it. Of course not the kind of money that buys Higuain nor the price that Lukaku is quoted at. 25-30mil for Mustafi is high but not crazy.

Agree totally. But if we look at Cech, isn't it a signing to fill a position that they have no immediate talent to fill? Talking about value, I am not sure if Xhaka at �30m is exactly that.
Therefore, I do believe Wenger, although trying to get value buys whenever he can, has accepted that overpaying for some might be inevitable.
Mustafi is a strange situation. My opinion is that they can afford but for some reasons, are unwilling to push it through. Let's see how this develops.
But i respect this ah seng wanker. Those gooners sibei ungrateful. Where the f**k were the fans when arsenal won the title. Many cups under ah seng. Mind u this arsenal last time sibei many ppl dun like to watch them one. Coz they defensive minded n play long balls one and at one point of time in mid 90s sliding down.
But came ah seng to rescue the club.. now the very grateful fans at that time wan2 turn on him again. Haiz... real hyposcry rite.
Anyway whining from a spurs fan. Hehe. Coz during this period spurs declined. No trophies. Only some worthless cup n finish below the gooners every time. Sibei sianz one.
And then out of the blue. The girl guide in london became rich overnight and spoil market by paying for players and heng heng got success n then eatablish themselves as a bigger club.
Then anoter blue man citeh came along and also bought the title.
Now got 2 new big clubs to concern with liao. Haiz

Diego Lopez is expected to join Chelsea from AC Milan in the next few days as back-up for Thibaut Courtois. [Mirror]
Isn't Bergovic there as No.2?
Another player not joining Chelsea would be Lukaku. According to Koeman, Lukaku had committed to him that he would be staying at Everton
Either Lopez becomes the 3rd choice goalie or something's happening to Begovic. Think more likely the former. Don't underestimate the need for a good 3rd goalie as we saw last season when Courtois got injured n also this season at Pool with Karius.
That's why I don't know whether Pep is brave or he is silly being so blunt with Hart. Till Bravo actually comes, he's playing a dangerous game if u ask me as if something happens to Caballero, he doesn't have a 3rd quality goalie! Outfield players not really an issue to ostracise someone but not a specialised position like goalie. Anyway Pep Shld know better so who am I to question him.
Gaffer a bit cheesed off in the interview... I feel for him... fan expectations are so crazy nowadays... I'm guilty of wishing for some variables to change as well... the following quote is telling of how he feels.
�
�
After the match, the Frenchman made a passionate defence of the accusation he is reluctant to spend and promised he would spend astonishing amounts on the right player.
��Why do you say I am reluctant? I don�t understand that,� said Wenger. � If we find players who can strengthen our team we are not reluctant. I would spend �300m if I find the right player and I have �300m.��He could not hide his disappointment to be thrown questions about finance and transfers in the immediate aftermath of an intense match with quite a lot on the line, even at this early stage of the campaign.��Unfortunately, nobody speaks about the performance of Rob Holding,� Wenger went on. �You should be happy � he is English, he is 20. But I am sorry he didn�t cost �55m so he cannot be good. He had an outstanding performance for a young boy who has never played in the Premier League up against a great player. We don�t talk about the players any more. We speak about anything else than football.�

Hart won't be sold until Bravo is in. So I think they are still quite covered in that aspect.

You think so? I mean being covered?
�
With all due respect, Caballero whilst decent is not top 4 level goalie so if Bravo gets suspended or injured, City might be found wanting I feel. I don't quite agree on the ostracizing of Hart,�could have been handled better but apparently Pep�has done this before at his previous clubs but first time for a goalie if not mistaken. We shall see.
Hmm, said it before Pep took over at City that he doesn't rate Hart.You think so? I mean being covered?

Don't think it is ostracising him. If he willing to stay as 3rd choice, Pep won't mind a bit I think.

hope he stays and Klopp gives him a chance. Pool only has Matip as the other 1st team CB. He is kind of untested in the EPL and fitness level is a big question mark at this time. Hence, it is wise not to let Sakho go for the sake of the team. �

Still need to get rid of Markovic, Wisdom, Illori, Balo by transfer or loan. Dun think Klopp wants the window closed without doing these necessary... �

Basically, if you know that there is (are) shortcoming(s) on your players in whichever positions and there is no one in the rank (incl the youth academy) to step up. Then you just have to pay the price and buy if you want to challenge for the title. To rebuild almost certainly means giving up the title fight.

What happened to the Fox is a fairy tale that happen (not even) once every 50 years.

Fonte deserved to be in a Top Club for his performance in the Euros, good experience player.
Looks like the earlier report of Valencia wanting �50m is wide off the mark.
http://www.thesportr...dnesday-report/
According to the above report, Arsenal is getting their man soon at �25m plus �3m addons
�
25m too little lar... �we should offer 50m......
�
because 25m can't win us the title but if we pay 50m.... the title is ours!!!

Even West Brom is helping Wenger to make up his mind
Apparently Hart is getting near to the exit door after a heated argument with pep during training.
Regardless heated or not, he is heading out I think.
Everton waiting for Bravo to complete the switch.
Arsenal head count just reduced by 1
Frankly hor, who will submit resignation with Comic Sans font??
After Bravo, they are reportedly trying to sign Hernandez from Leverkusen
Man citeh have lost their soul unfortunately. Buying instant successMan City are finishing the window strongly.

Man yo well. They r already self sustaining unlike citeh who depend on little history n oil monies
True but Man Utd in the past 3 seasons basically is trying to buy instant success as well.
Just my observation, don't flame me
I recall Arsenal went into a period of austerity as they wanted to spend on their new bigger capacity stadium that will bring them higher revenue. Leaving Highbury was a tough pill to swallow then as most fans have connections with the old ground.
�
10 years later today, it appears that the club is still unwilling to spend more competively in the market although the bigger Emirates should have given them more firepower. My personal view is the shareholders of Arsenal are the ones hogging the profits and dividends. Arsene may/could have gotten his share outside his managerial remuneration too. This arrangement is a win-win for everyone except the fans, who pay for ever higher season tickets and TV subscription without seeing their money spend on the recruits they like and being a perennial top 4. I would have understood their frustrations too.
Looks like Pako has made it clear. Unless Arsenal trigger his release clause at �50m, Mustafi is staying

Wenger rejected a pay increase... but take his share outside his manager pay? Might as well take both
�
I think besides the rich guys like man u, man c and chelsea.... we have been competitive.... so unless we have commercial revenue like man u or sugar daddy like man c and chelsea.... there is only so much Arsenal can do...
All along this thread is Man Utd and Pool fans trading barbs, in addition to the usual transfer updates that O23 provides. Now Arsenal dowan spend money/no money spend/ngiao ji ngiao lan, also tio target.

At least don't have too many plastic ManC fans crowing about their "success"
Wow, finally got someone on the same wavelength as me! That's what I've been saying all this while ie how did Pool, United, Arsenal etc became good? Cos they got success earlier likely cos they either came first, got more money earlier or combination of both. Now City, Chelsea n whoever using money n called plastic etc. Come on, don't begrudge new money cos u reaped the benefits of old money, cheers!
�
Not just one. So many agree with you. All fans want success. Only disagreement is the philosophy of how.
�
At the end of the season... there can only be one winner. Whether club spends 200m or 2m. If the club/manager/players have the heart and wherewithal... they can do it.
i rather Arsene Wenger uses that 50m go and buy 30 16-year-old potential kids
�
then hope in 2/3 years time, got at least 1 turn into Messi or Ronaldo, and 3-5 become Rooney
Never like the Glazers, but admire them for their biz acumen. Who would use their own money to start up if the bank loans are available to you? Of course, the risks were there and could affect their biz in the State if MU deal backfired badly. They know their biz, maybe not football and left it to SAF to sail through the stormy years. Except for the 1st few years when interest payment were at its highest, they were not shy and supported the managers with fund to compete in transfer markets.
�
They, like successful bizmen, know that you need to spend money to make money.
�
Despite with higher net debts than many of its top rivals, MU, back by recent years bumper sponsorship deals and the new TV money, beat every club incl RM into submission in transfer market.
�
While the detractors had field days on the Pogba deal, no one mentioned on the free transfer Ibra.
�
While one "specialist" club is re-building after 12 years, and another trying to find its way after a 1/4 of CENTURY and hundreds of millions on dozens of players, they can proudly proclaim to be purists.
�
MU cannot wait after just 3 years in wilderness. So instead of more money going as directors' fees to Glazer, they can spend every penny on the players for all MU fan could care.
�
After all, most of these money come from merchandise and sponsorship as the fans do not pay the highest tickets for their dreams.
�
So let the money hoarders and the lesser teams rejoice, we have the noisy neighbor and maybe the Chelski to take care of,
�
�
i know but the fact is they did spend but maybe not on the scale of man u because they cannot afford to....
to be honest, even madrid and barca cannot spend like man u...
Ya, seems like their spending power curbed. Real stepping aside on Pogba's deal is a good indicator.
Barcelona will have to relies on their next batch of stars from academy. Their core group now are all aging together.
Man Utd is a monster in their commercial tie up. In term of fan base, maybe only Liverpool can match but even that is dwelling. If during Klopp's time Pool can't start winning again, future will b quite bleak in terms of overseas fan base. To have a commercial machinery running, global fan base is key.

Well it sure doesn't seem like many agree with me here but no worries as we all Hv our opinion. BTW, My point on Arsenal is to spend in proportion of their earnings, not at the level of United, City n Chelsea. It's my opinion they are not doing this but as u said, diff clubs Hv diff philosophies so I shall not be posting anymore on this as I've riled up quite a few people here which was nvr the intention.
Like Weez911 says, not my club so actually better still they dont spend isn't it? N still got people say I geh geh happy at Arsenal's woes but ironical isn't it, if I'm happy why post their non spending? Cheers n peace to all here n let's enjoy the football!!

Agree.
Different clubs just have to operate differently base on financial muscles. You guys got big muscles so can just buy whoever you fancy at whatever price.
People like us will just have to work around it and thus, taking a much tougher route to achieve success.
No right or wrong as I always said. With money, the path to glory is smoother. Without money, you just have to work harder for it.
I love all the hypocrisy here.

Buying 30 youngsters is all well n good but but how many will actually come good? Ironically, city n Chelsea Hv one of the best youth academies cos they willing to spend there but which player came good from there? Maybe Iheanacho n Loftus Cheek possibly but not sure yet. We all impatient naturally so buying finished product is preferred but obviously not guaranteed.
Best I think is a mixture of say 18 first team standard players n 5-6 youth ones in the squad to see how they fare n give them exposure but easier said than done cos sometimes certain positions need filling n there could be lop sided of players in a particular position.
I love all the hypocrisy here.

that's y i have said. it's good to b rich. but somehow whenever i say that to fans of certain clubs that their favourite club is buying titles, they get offended. there's nothing wrong. the world now is in such a way that u need money to succeed. of cos there will b clubs who dont read the script n spoil the party of the rich. but that is "once in 50yrs" occurrence.
What the point of buying in a Super wonder kid and sell him off at a Super value price during the peak time of the player ?
You need to keep that Super star in your team to win title and attract more wonder kid !!
Look at CR7, Manu should not sell him at all.
I know the player wanted to go RM but if Manu is determined to overtake RM in any sort of competition, they should make use of CR7 to attract more stars and win title.
On the contrary , Barca definitely done well to make sure Messi stay with them . They make use of Ugly Ron to nature Messi and now making Messi happy enough to groom the next batch of youth.
I can't see the gunner doing that .
its not that they wanna sell la. but they hv to. arsenal need the money at that time, thats y we see a lot of their star players are sold. n also they can counteroffer by increasing the players' pay. but now, i tink they do not hv to sell if they want. we will surely see arsenal buy expensive players at least once a window.

Southampton have bid �15m for Sofiane Boufal
Premier League side Southampton have bid �15m for Lille attacker Sofiane Boufal, according to France Football.
Watford already had an offer rejected worth a similar amount earlier on during the window.
Lille want at least �20m plus bonuses in order to part with the player.
Southampton could come back with an improved offer in the coming days.
Spurs supposedly interested too but never bid.
His free kicks already worth the price tag
With no potential suitor in sight, no sure where James Pearce gets his optimism from.
Very good explanation on the cost involved in signing a player.

if this happens, klopp will need to do some explaining. cos everyone knows the reason of giving him play time to regain his fitness or watever is nonsense. he needs to disclose wat went on at the us tour that had sakho sent home.�

Balotelli won't be at Liverpool come 1st Sep
With no potential suitor in sight, no sure where James Pearce gets his optimism from.
- Mario Balotelli could end his Liverpool nightmare by signing for Swiss Super League side FC Sion.
From THE SUN.
even back in italy no 1 want him, sad man
, wat happen to this guy. i still remember him winning the title for man c
if this happens, klopp will need to do some explaining. cos everyone knows the reason of giving him play time to regain his fitness or watever is nonsense. he needs to disclose wat went on at the us tour that had sakho sent home.
I rate Sakho and believe he is a captain material.
However, even if Klopp rates his ability as well, he needs to cut him down to size of he grows his head too big.
I believe Klopp is team builder. He will not allow anyone to disrupt his effort to gel a team. This loan move is more for Sakho to sort out his head imo. He either take this positively and work his way back or he will be sold. The message to him is clear.

3rd choice keeper
wah so many done deals.
Eduardo joins Chelsea on a one-year deal from Dinamo Zagreb
3rd choice keeper
Just my opinion but I see 2 very different attitudes to the goalkeeping situation at City v Chelsea.
�
Chelsea being overtly cautious? Unless they intend to move Begovic on, they will have 3 very experienced goalies which is always good but hard to manage as only 1 can play and another will not be able to even sit on the bench.
�
City on the other hand I feel take it too lightly. Fair enough Pep feels Bravo is the main man but the back ups are weak as Caballero is not exactly top 4 material IMO and likely the 3rd choice goalie is one of their youth goalies. For a club which is overstocked with experienced outfield players, this smacks of negligence I feel and explains why I felt Hart should have been kept or managed better.
�
Pool also have 3 goalies though 1 is a 40yr old and some questioned this�signing when Klopp made it but I nvr doubted it and it proved a wise decision when Karius broke his hand.

i think hart de pay very high is it.

i feel they want to bring down the wages structure, rather then the money from selling hart.
�
and motivation factor also, having a unhappy england no1 in your sq is very unwise, all the media keep talking, and negivative �influence in the team.

Hart's pay is def high but so too the rest of the City players.
�
You got a point that it may not be possible to keep the England no. 1 happy sitting on the bench but I still feel it's an accident waiting to happen if something happens to Bravo. But I suppose that is what Pep is paid to consider.

He is already sitting on the bench before Bravo arriving. Now with Bravo as Pep's first choice, Hart will be promoted to Director Box seat.

Highly unlikely bro. I think David Anderson from Mirror was the one who reported Everton keen on Hart but not Liverpool some time back.
Migs on 60kpw I think and likely to be on the bench once Karius is fit. How much pay cut is Hart willing to take to sit on the bench at Anfield?
Always remember this guy cos he was the sub who came on for Italy in the Euros to take a penalty in the shoot out and then he went on to-in the commentator's words "he's like a ballet dancer taking a penalty" take the most bizarre�penalty and miss!!�
That fella who pattern more than badminton then totally misswd the penalty kick? Haha
Just read this article in Independent, Pep admits it could be a big mistake to lose Hart.

To me, it is merely a PR exercise. He didn't speak his mind on Hart but rather being very diplomatic. I give him due credit to give Hart the dignity and respect he deserves after serving so many years at City.

Maybe it is a PR exercise�to try get the City fans back on his side but I like honesty from Mgrs whether it's a PR exercise or not. It is always a risk to when you buy/sell players and esp for a long serving goalie who is playing in an important position.
�
I'm not�a Pep fan but I like straight talking Mgrs though he could learn to be more tactful in his handling of players. I read Ribery is much happier with�Ancelotti now at BM�cos that coach is a father figure type which is welcomed by most players.

Yup totally agree. No manager will be 100% liked by his players because all are human beings and there would bound to be some with character that just don't like you.
Klopp although so well like at BVB, also don't have good words from Mkhitaryan

Actually I did the same also when Man Utd signed him. He can inject pace into Man Utd's attack. Imaging Mkhitaryan and Martial on either side.

Going for another winger but this one is is still very young. Klopp rates him highly and forced to act now due to Stoke submitting a bid for him. BVB reluctant to sell according to reports

Hmm firstly, Balo don't have 6 figures to collect. Secondly, Hart believes he can be the No.1 for most of the EPL clubs. Lastly, both of them are not at the tail end of their playing careers.
Schweinstiger I think he wants to play in MLS.

Karius looks ok but based on first game I saw, wasn't impressive
I'm sure as hell impressed with hart. One of the best in PL
I don't see why we can't considering buying him? Unless the transfer is super high

You still impressed with him even after his showing at Euros? Many pointing fingers at him for England's exit.
Hart on his day is certainly a top keeper but he is prone to errors as well. Better than Migs of course but if Klopp's idea is to groom Karius to the first choice, Migs or Hart will have to be on the bench.
I do rate Karius as a young keeper, I see lots of potential in him. However, I won't be expecting a superb season from him either as I know he needs time to adjust. De Gea I remember didn't really do well in his first season at Man Utd too but they kept faith in him and now he is repaying them handsomely.

As usual, I would challenge the logic of looking at gross spend to analyse this. Pool's spending most of the time are supported by the cash from sale. So when we buy Torres for 23m, sell him for 50m, buy Carroll for 35m, our spending is registered as 58m. But during these transactions, we lost a 50m rated striker and replaced with one who is 35m.
Did Pool improve as a team at the end? I am not too sure

To guage how much a team has strengthen, I feel using nett spending will be a better indication.
But of course I am aware of the other way of looking at it: regardless whether the money is from sales or not, the club did spend that money to sign the new players.
So in that sense, I can only say Pool have been poor in replacing departed players

Can't really comment on others but I do agree that if Pool can get Ricardo Rodriguez would be boss.
This window however, I am still unable to comprehend Klopp's strategy.
Karius, Matip and Klavan most straightforward to replace Bogdan, Skrtel and Kolo. Grujic already signed to replaced Allen.
Then comes to the winger and AM position that we saw Klopp went ahead to splash on more expansive alternatives when the younger and cheaper first choice targets were unattainable for different reasons.
What remains are the DM and LB where by Klopp decided not to do anything once the first choice targets are off. Dahoud will be visited again but for the LB, really have no idea what Klopp has in mind. Milner, in terms of the age and natural position, cannot be seen as a long term solution. If Moreno cannot improve to the required standard, we really have to splash on that position.

Don't think budget is an issue bro.
Last check, Pool's nett spending is �5.6m. We might not be very rich but if we want to spend, definitely can do better than this.

Ricardo Rodriguez, Chelsea also want him and they have been rebuffed I think so doubt if Pool can get.

http://www.90min.com...cardo-rodriguez
�
I believe Klopp's idea is that if can't get the choices he wants, then might as well don't buy and wait for the right one but on the other hand, it's a big risk esp if he doesn't�have a suitable cover even academy ones�which seems to be the case.
�
I read Chelsea are desperately short of defenders and they have been linked with quite a few but for some reason, no deal done (likely cos of price) and they waiting for the sellers to blink but in their case, they have some quality young defenders in their midst so can rely on them if they really can't get in their choices.
�
In short, yes it is a strange decision on LB at Pool. I'm already on record here that I don't think Milner is the answer even though he is willing.�BTW, Christian Fuchs name has been floating around but my guess is it's just paper or agent talk.

Look like he is also doing a Schweini and look set to see out his final year at WBA.
His career really stagnated because of the face off with WBA. He tried to force a move for two years liao but always get blocked and relationship with manager soured.
His pay is very low, so I think that's why WBA can afford to screw him up
Hearing Wilshere is allowed to leave Arsenal
10 EPL clubs have made loan offers for Wilshere & over dozen clubs on the Continent. None have offered more than 50% wages.
Pool offered too I think. Thrown in the treatment table next to Sturridge in an attempt to lure him

I don't know who is worse off here, WBA or Berahino?
�
WBA could have easily gotten 15-20mil for him and now likely to let him go for free next summer. Even though he's on low wages, it's disturbing to have an unhappy player in the dressing room, not to mention loss of a significant fee.
�
As for Berahino, his career has stagnated. Was on the verge of the England squad and even if he leaves for free in the next summer window and thereby ensuring a fat sign on fee and likely higher wages, heavy price to pay and a couple of wasted�seasons�and plenty of catching up to do!�
�
This is what I call lose-lose n that's why I don't believe in keeping an unhappy player!!
Apparently he could go for free next summer only if he goes abroad.
�
WBA is entitled an undisclosed sum of money if he joins another english club on free transfer.
Yes, by next year he is still under 24. So if another English club signs him, they have to pay WBA a compensation set by tribunal.Apparently he could go for free next summer only if he goes abroad.
WBA is entitled an undisclosed sum of money if he joins another english club on free transfer.

True. N even if they don need so many players due to lighter schedule,wat if they do qualify for europe next season? Only then they wanna look for players? By then, the new players will need time to gel. N it will b a disappointing season agn when the 1st team players get fatigue n new players unable to adapt quickly.Soccernet has a good article on

If Klopp is told specifically that this window his nett spend will be zero, do you think he will sit extend his contract for 3 more years? He does not have to tie himself to Liverpool if there is sign of financial constraints.Soccernet has a good article on

Klopp joined in Oct last season and in the Jan window, he wasted no time to secure Grujic and Matip. This window is the first he had and his objective is to clear house. Keeping those he needs and moving on those he doesn't. If we look at the signings he made, they are clearly upgrades on those departed, either in terms of quality or suitability to his style.
Shared earlier that Klopp has managed to address all areas barring the LB and DM position. DM I roughly can guess he is waiting for the one he wants but LB, I am more clueless. He works with the players and if he feels that Milner can do the job there as LB, I shall not question his decision now. Will wait till end of season before commenting.
As a Pool fan, I am happy with this window, especially on the outgoing. Some really brilliant business there to recoup on those players he wants to shift. Incoming wise, I feel at least there is now a direction. FSG is trusting Klopp and Klopp repays them with his prudent spending for not spending.
If we look back at his tenure at BVB, his first window is also to clear house, shifting 10 over players out. So I can safely say this is how Klopp works, nothing to do with any hidden financial agenda.

I believe when we do have European commitment next season, Klopp will just add on to the core he has built from this window. I will not be expecting wholesale changes made to the team. With all the money saved, next window could be massive if Klopp wants to strengthen. Not forgetting the potential incoming of the Chinese investment.
In gist, I believe our rebuilding is in this window, with the massive clear out of unwanted players. From here on, will be strengthening.
I stand corrected, but Klopp got his contract extended well before this transfer window started. So maybe balls got squeezed but can't cry out loud? ![[grin]](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_u4rCp9VIb6DjfCjOhlhcA_x11sNY5XYlIJ6hhJzonpFVZ0bLq89Ni4T9J9tmmf_fF-w6gzsp3R70k50gsAiOHE8yg7mfBWdEQNFmvkfsNOn8bOuEs_9-pIDxEGXhZEr61bUDg=s0-d)

Also, when I say I am happy, I only speak for myself leh. I don't represent anyone else
Liverpool fans are generally the same as most others lah, we are all human beings. When we are optimistic, to others we might sound delusional. When we are trying to be patient, others say we lack of ambition.
Patience being a virtue coming from an Utd fan certainly sounds real. You guys showed great patience before SAF arrived on the big stage. So certainly justified to comment that.

pity us pool fans, right? how long hv we been patient?? at least u man u fans only need to b patient for 2 season...when moyes n lvg were managers. this season already looking good for u. while pool still finding their feet.
The thing is that we have identify players we wanted but somehow we are not going to pay extra premium for it. I agree paying crazy prices is not the way but certain gaps and some position determine win/lose thus the need to pay even we get chop like a Carrot
Football league is not unlike TV Drama, you need people (team) to play hero, villain, beauty, beast and crowd (also runs)
Hilarious conversation this morning with my die-hard Spuds supporting cuz... when I sent him the pic of all the players bought for over 100m using the Bale cash... and their status now
Newcastle want �30m for him.
Spurs offer �16m.
Levy vs Ashley.
Let's see who win
And you all still say have not replaced suarez
To be agonized, you need to have success first.... so how can spurs fans be in agony...lol
Just some friendly rivalry... mai angry hor
How to replace the best striker in the world?

Spurs want Sissoko.
Newcastle want £30m for him.

Levy is every chairman's dream. sell own lousy player for profit, then lowball good players from elsewhere.... Haha

Well... it is after all a team game...
DEAL DONE: Stoke City have signed Wilfried Bony from Manchester City on a season-long loan. Stoke paid a loan fee of �2m

wah, Stoke major INs past 1 year ...... Under a different mgr, they might be a force to reckon with�

True. But having a world class striker will make you a title contender from just a top 4 challenger.

PSG would allow David Luiz to join Chelsea if they secure the signing of Rodrigo Caio.
Bruno Martins Indi to Stoke on loan

Agree... but that's why you have so many players to replace one
Would have been a good cover for Pool
It was a scattered gun approach bro. Once Sanchez rejected us for Arsenal, Pool given up on signing a direct replacement liao. The signings did not address any particular concerns, seems to me is like trying to get many in hopefully one or two will come good.Agree... but that's why you have so many players to replace one
That's why I like the way Pool conducting transfers now. Structured and decisive.

Pool recoup everything paid for him.
Balotelli moved to Nice on a free transfer.
Quite wide reported so may not be just rumour.
Chelski could be happy to have "loaned" him out to PSG for fitness and experince then have him back for a good profit.
Looks like the joke's on me instead. Really thought the Luiz back to Chelsea report was just paper talk but it's real haha! This guy has some good qualities but don't think he's a proper defender n to pay �32mil seems Abit high for his age.
Meanwhile Stoke seems to be winners this window getting good players like Bony n Indi added to their already good squad. Well done n good luck!!
13 EPL clubs broken their transfer records.
However, there is an obvious gulf in terms of spending power.

wah so many loan deals
�
wonder if they have clauses that prevent the loaned players from playing against their mother clubs?
�
always love it when the players come back to haunt the clubs that have loaned them out
Nvr heard of a player going on loan for more than 2yrs if not mistaken. Maybe Juve's way of conforming to FFP? Chelsea don't have to conform to FFP this season since they not in Europe so don't mind this arrangement I guess n obviously the loan fees Shld add up. No proof on this n my conjecture only.

No need clause I think. EPL ruling stipulates that players on loan are not eligible to play against their parent clubs still holding to their registration.
Markovic completed loan deal to Sporting Lisbon.
Balotelli moved to Nice on a free transfer.

Free? wow... how low has that fellas stock fallen... wasn't he bought for 15m+?�

This is Super Mario's last chance to redeem himself I think...

the greatest joke or compliment �i heard is that this deal was so welcomed by pool fans that they would have gladly added Moreno as a add-on sweetener if Nice has problems accepting Balo on free lol :)�
Juan Cuadrado from Chelsea to Juve for 3 yr loan sounds strange to me.

Luiz is the strange one I feel. Firstly, when he went for �50m, it was super overpriced and now for no apparent reason, Chelsea resigned him. I have a feeling there is some "secret" arrangement between the clubs.

�16m. He has too many last chances liao. When Klopp who is known to enjoy developing players don't even bother to try, it is telling.
Look on the bright side, at least now Pool no longer has to pay �90kpw for nothing. This window really free up a huge chunk of wages. Let's see how Pool going to use that subsequently.

i find the Luiz deal beyond comprehension too and it was also highlighted by many others. ��
�
I think it's really an attempt to replace John Terry who is surely into his last season. Perhaps the defensive-minded Conte can work some magic into Luiz and helped him become a real defender for once? only time will tell. �

Thanks, this is the cost players are to clubs. For fans, usually they just look at fees paid.
�Perhaps the defensive-minded Conte can work some magic into Luiz and helped him become a real defender for once? only time will tell. �
�
Or due to budget or other constraints, he opts for a 2 in 1 defender and attacking midfielder.
�
Some would say 3 in 1, centre forward as well.

�
Yes... tough for Everton and Koeman that he pulled out in the last minute... really unethical of the player to renege on a deal... switching off his phone when the jet was ready to pick him up, etc.
�
I don't think this type of mercenary player is one for the future. Always having his heart with another club. Better for Everton to look elsewhere.

at this rate, we will also need to convert him into a make-shift GK... �sibei value-added Singaporean style employment tactics lol�

actually if you were him... i think a choice between everton and spurs is pretty clear right. I think the jet ticket probably forced Spurs to up their initial low ball offer of 15M. �Sissoko probably used it to his advantage and seal the deal with spurs. �

just feel for everton... they tried to get so many good players during the summer yet ended really with nothing much. �

Not sure about �100m. Lambert �4m, Lallana �25m, Lovren �20m, Clyne �12.5m.
Can't possibly add in Mane's fee now right?
