I read the tortoise removed his shell before the race hoping it would make him faster,
Didn’t help though, it just made him sluggish…

That doesn’t work - for a snail maybe 
, but not a tortoise 
A different take on running naked?
I wish they would just get on with it but then what would be the fun it otherwise - 11.59 deadline day it is!
Everyone knows it’s hard to win two transfer windows in a row.
According to Catalan media, Ferran Torres could be off to PSG, and they want to get the deal done quickly. It’s been known for some time that Enrique wants him there, so it’s been an ongoing rumour.
I think that could get things moving with Barcola, as I’m guessing Torres will be the replacement in terms of game time.

Aren’t Barca still after Alvarez? if so, perhaps this could be where the market really gets moving this summer.

They are, yes. We’ll see if Ateltico’s stance is posturing, like Newcastle with Isak last summer, or if they’re serious about it.

Marca from Madrid saying the same too. Should be a formality too I think if so. They don´t seem to care much that he would leave and says they´re just waiting for the offer and he wants to go.
I think we will get Barcola and probably a CB. The minimum and our fans will be relieved and mostly content. I don´t think it´s enough but it will be a hell of a lot better than what we have now.
Change thread name to…Bored with Barcola.

I’m guessing you weren’t thrilled with the Isak saga last summer then? 
Peace talks with Iran are moving quicker than this deal.

All right, nice. The sooner they get Torres done, the sooner we’ll probably get Barcola done.
I think there seems to be substance in the Mbaye rumour as well. Leverkusen had made a bid and were seemingly on their way to do a deal, but now they’ve apparently moved on.
I hope they get both done, to give them a good collection of fast and tricky wingers. Would be a big contrast to what they had last season.

Who are they?
Liverpool. Or, Barcola and Mbaye. If you mean those other they. They being those two.

Ok.
I always think of Liverpool as ‘we/us’ and other clubs as ‘they’.

Ah, yes. I switch it up, sometimes I go we, sometimes I go they. I’m wild that way.

Maybe you think LFC are non-binary.

I wasn’t at all. Calling the whole summer throughout to swerve this… 
This case is a bit different, as the player is hopefully training with his club and getting match fit. Still, no pre-season training with us, and the monstrous touted price makes this move quite unpalatable for me.
