Will be funny if we go and sign Cherki instead. They will sell him next season for 50 million to Bayern i guess. Greedy guys. We have stuck to our word and given more than our best.
People getting wound up by a journalist who is usually so far up Bayerns arse he looks out there mouth.
I agree, as someone who could well end up being the marquee signing of the summer…all eyes will be on him but it’s unhealthy to have this thought process at the forefront of one’s mind…and something we’d have to deal with as an aftermath if or when.
At the moment all the talk is “Oh gosh, how are Liverpool getting this generatial superstar and beating Bayern/Madrid/City to his signature”, & that’s what we have to believe for ourselves, that he’ll replicate his time in Germany in England, only for 2-3x as long, more trophies and all that record breaking stuff they come up with.
You might be right mate. Hopefully the final figures will be less. Guess With Diaz move happening now we might be singing Wirtz to play as a LW.
Missed these tweets but I can guess who it is.
Of course it all feels like dead air to fill.
GENERATIAL (sic) ALERT

Euros are make believe, like leprechauns and Eskimos.
You could pay with Monopoly money, those stupid frogs wouldn’t know.
Florid Worst is a generatial talent.
Pay them!
Thanks for the tip I’ll try it in Berlin this month ![]()
You should tell them you prefer your hot dogs with more ketchup and less Keen’s moutarde.
In my experience, they will respect you for your honest feedback.

HERE WE GO!!
In a 2 player negotiation, Carro played a Draw 4 and Hogan countered with a Reverse, Skip, Draw 2 combo.
Advantage Liverpool over the crafty Austrians.
Worst signature expected imminently.

Look at Mean Gene…
He has the starry-eyed glaze of someone witnessing greatness, like the first time Fred realised Daphne & Velma were into the three-way thing…
I think this is a first and we both may need therapy after but I agree with you.
Maybe in another 15-20 years or so just to experiment, I’m too comfortable in my own skin for that shit.
Cherki has a release clause of around £20M I don’t understand how Chelsea are paying £35M. The only thing we don’t know is if he is keen to join us or the highest bidder.
It wouldn’t be unusual to pay a higher fee than the release clause if the duration over which the payments are made is longer than that specified in the clause (I think we did similar for Jota). I don’t know if that is the case here (although the size of the gap is significantly higher so I assume there must be another reason?)
It doesn’t make any sense from a PSR point of view. If we value Elliot at £40m, Leverkusen end up booking 40m less than the value of Wirtz, and we book nothing for Elliott.
As you say, separate deals is the way clubs go.
I don’t think it gets this far if the two clubs aren’t in the right ballpark. I suspect what is being negotiated if the structure of the deal, the proportion of add ons etc.
2 days ago all the ITKs thought we’d agreed base price and were just sorting added triggers and timing
I’d say it’s all bs speculation at this point and most likely gets done in the next week in Principle at least.
