To be fair to Gini he has been the model pro hasn’t he.

Nope… Very good footballer … and those are heaps of those around…
But he’s been a great player for us… Liverpool Legend
Apparently he just gave an interview to the BBC saying he wanted to stay and that the “fans would soon know the truth”
He’s been not signing the contract that was placed in front of him. So if it comes down to money , then it is his right. He’s got to make the best use of his prime years.
But his legacy will always be as a liverpool player.
Mmm, I don’t like the sound of that.
I reckon it’s to do with the length of the contract rather than the money…
However if I am a midfielder who starts 95% of games for Liverpool during their most successful 2-3 year spell I would expect to be made one of the higher earners at the club.
We don’t need a player to replicate that exactly.
Another good midfielder who has a good record of availability will be enough and there’s plenty of them around. Gini’s been a fantastic servant and often underrated but let’s not go too far the other way, he’s not irreplaceable.
Ye so I am asking you who replaces him then.
Give me 3-5 players who come in for 30-50 million who can start 40 games over a season and be 7-8 outta 10 for the majority of those games… it’s harder than you think
And I mean who come in and do that ASAP…
Hit the ground running.
Thiago is a more Hollywood player but took a long time to get going
I agree. I appreciate Gini’s perspective… End of the day he’s got to look out for his benefit
Thank you Gini. You’ve been a great servant to the club, and I wish you all the best in your next endeavor.

#breakingnews:
Gini will be staying at Liverpool afterall. his representatives/agents were doing there job by telling liverpool/FSG that if we make #ChampionsLeague he will stay, and held fast all season long.
now that we have made the #UCL its seems its now just a matter of working out the deal, pay rate + bonusses + benefits, and long term prospects.
i’m speculating a 5 year deal.
#woohoo!
I’d even go on a limb and say that we can develop the likes of Grujic and Curtis Jones etc
Gini was a special lad , no doubt about it… But people were writing off Nat Phillips when Grujic did infact do a passable job in his bundesliga seasons. They might not get us Gini but they can be themselves too… Impossible to hope for a like to like replacement
Look forward to Gini & Virg’s Holland taking a Trent-less England apart and the Reds taking Gini’s next team apart in the UCL. (Especially if it’s Bayern)
For Gini’s sake , hope he doesnt join Barca. That club got fucked by his goals against them to boot. Remember the signing of coutinho/dembele… that was when the downfall started to be seen openly
Why would you look forward to that?
I’d feel sorry for Hendo, admittedly. But delighted to see Trent’s stock amoung our club’s fans rise even further in absentia. Club before country.
The more players who miss out I Ter stop ally, due to injury or inept managers not selecting them (yes Gareth I am taking to you) the better.
Rest up lads and get ready for next season
I have a feeling Trent will be in the squad and I’ll be supporting England.
Body of steel
Heart of gold
