Transfer Tweets - Summer 2017 | Keep it on topic

Very decent player who can operate as a 7, 11 or 10. Not as two footed as Perisic - prefers his right. But he's three years younger, and can play in almost all the front forward and midfield positions. Reminds me of De Bruyne.

There is a big caveat with Forsberg. Last season was really his first season in top flight. When he joined RBL in the middle of the 14-15 season they were in the second division and didn't win promotion. So 16-17 season was RBL's first season in Bundesliga.

We are talking about a player that at 25 has little CL experience and only one good season in a top league. He could be a late bloomer but he could well be a Michu too. There's risk.

Needed to be said.
 
If we want movement from Inter on dropping expectations for Perisic then I'd get some briefs out there to suggest that we're in for Keita as an alternative instead. That'll make Inter panic, assuming they're really in for him, and play ball with us for a more reasonable Perisic price.
 


EYE! Coutinho has called on Jurgen Klopp to let him go this summer if or if. Pressure from the Brazilian Liverpool #mercato


Well Gerrard Romero has a good track record, however, he hasn't had a good summer so far.

He had Fabinho to City earlier on. That obviously didn't happen.

Ismaïla Sarr joins Rennes.

It took them 1 year to buy a replacement for Dembélé.

Madrid have gone from almost discarding the signing of Mbappé to going hard for him right now

Thank you.
 
Be nice to see us get someone in other than Perisic just to feck with Inter for being greedy and having the audacity to demand huge fee+ one of the brightest young talents in football. Obviously someone who will add to the team and not just for spite. But quality+spite would be beautiful.

I think Coutinho is nailed on for next summer. Around 90%, but seems odd timing now so close to the season when a week ago he was happy and going nowhere. Usually this type of transfer goes on throughout the season and all summer.

Hope it does go through though.

Think it might end up like Suarez. One more year and if nothing changes, you're free to go.
 
I don't see coutinho moving so late in the window tbh.

All it takes is for a couple of massive transfers to happen for all hell to break loose.

Agreed. I can see a few RM players moving after Mbappe joins. Likewise the Neymar to PSG, Coutinho to Barca moves could pre-empt a 100m bid from Liverpool for Naby Keita. I think clubs are slowly realizing that these transfers cannot last. TV revenues in the PL are going down. Sponsorship levels are stagnating and political issues in Qatar and UAE are going to lead to massive financial problems. This is the summer in which they can get the most money for their big players and making deals now could set their entire organization up for the next 5 years or more.

Yeah, but Liverpool don't need to sell and he has around 4 or 5 years left on his contract with no clause. I'm sure he'll end up at Barca, but this is a little too late in the window to get started up and have any realistic chance of happening IMO. If it was happening stuff would have been happening 6 weeks ago.

That's not enough time for Liverpool to find a replacement all of a sudden and have him bed in with the squad ahead of their first match of the season.

Clear as day that we've dropped our interest in him. We had a price that we felt was sensible (and probably generous too) and they've been cheeky and tried to take the piss. We've walked away and they are regretting it and trying to tempt us back.

Sucks for him and for Mourinho since he felt he was a good fit but out of principal it would be nice. Hope we get our midfielder next and if we get Perisic it's a deadline day deal for less than our original bid.
