Stoke are going to replace Arnautovic with Jean-Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting. I don't know anything about him apart from him having 5 names and he's on a free. Is he any good?

Many places are reporting that Lemina to Southampton for €20m will be finalized in the next couple of days. I'm actually disappointed to see him leave Juve, but it is at least decent business.

It'll be good to see how he does as a starter.

Is being a bad poster a gimmick because uhh I may need to change some things

Klopp's said he's totally fine with having three permacrocks and Klavan as his center backs going into a season with (hopefully) CL football. This is all absolutely fine.

Wow I was just about to come in here to question Southamptons absence in any transfers this summer, and now I see they're maybe after Lemina. Would prolly be a good pickup for them.

quote:

Neymar hasn't even made his Paris Saint-Germain debut yet, but already his transfer is causing an uproar in Brazil as Santos are reportedly seeking a percentage of his world-record 222 million euro transfer fee.

Not only are they looking for five percent of the amount being sent Barcelona's way, which would be 8.9m euros, but they are also demanding 4.5m euros for the supposed non-completion of a contract clause which required two friendly matches to be played between the Catalan and Sao Paulo clubs.

Well he's hardly about to say "yes we desperately need a new centre back" and get every centre back on the market to tack 10m onto their asking prices

Idk the FA needs to figure out a way to distribute the tv and transfer windfall through the championship but championship players are regularly being sold to other championship clubs for 15m now which would have been absurd 10 years ago.

If Coutinho goes for 120m I'm going to cry.

And lol. Because someone on this forum said last summer if PSG offered 45m for him we should take it and then a load of people ripped into me for saying we could get at least 60 for him.

It's a shame that money is essentially meaningless for Liverpool, as even if we got £200m for him, Pulisic, Keita and van Dijk still wouldn't be for sale.

Sky reported last week that Stoke had made a bid for him. I don't know whether we were originally in for him and hosed it up or that Jim White is a retard and doesn't know the difference between teams that play in red and white stripes. I really hope its the latter because if we were after him and lost out I will be extremely unhappy let me tell you!

According to swiss-french media Favre wanted him, Favre has a good eye for players. Apparently Sneijder wanted to leave Turkey for political reasons, he would have still had a spot in the squad. He should fit well into Favre's system.
