Thiago Alcantara (CM) Bayern Munich

I think Keita gets one more year to prove himself.

The word “when” is doing the heavy lifting in that post.

Breaking News on the Beeb now.

I cannot think of one of the usual journos (Reddy, Joyce etc) who were saying anything definitive about this. If anything, they were mostly hedging their bets against with Pearce in particular doing his best to piss on the bonfire.

Thiago,Mini,Mane,Mo,doesn’t sound as good as Gini,Mini,Mane,Mo.
Maybe that’s why we pondered for so long.

From TIA on the 4th of July by yours truly:

''It wouldn’t surprise me if we deviated from our usual age bracket when it comes to signings in the next season or two; we have a complete first XI and a good squad so having won the CL, Super Cup, World Club Cup, the Premier League and with Klopp signed to 2024 it could be possible (not saying it will happen) that a few older and quality players might arrive for 2021/22 and 2022/23 on shorter term but lucrative contracts in line with our higher earners to keep us winning with a rebuild in mind for 2023/24.

At the moment Klopp is here for only the next three seasons and I am sure he, the owners, his backroom staff and the current squad would like to maximise that time to its full extent while also keeping an eye out for the future. Thiago, for instance, simply does not fit the bill for where we were but for where we are right now it does make a bit of sense.’’

Teach you all to disregard my sage wisdom, wot?

James Pearce, Liverpool reporter: Given that he is 29 and will command big wages, it is a deal out of keeping with Liverpool’s usual transfer policy of investing in young talent. But the relatively low fee given his contractual situation meant Liverpool ultimately decided he was worth making an exception for.

Bah, it’s his number and he’s Mazinho’s son in my book! :stuck_out_tongue:

Left side of our team is amazing now.

Virgil, Robbo, Thiago, Mane.

That’s possibly the best mix in the world at the moment right there.

SHOULD HAVE BEEN SIGNED BEFORE THE LEEDS GAME. OUR GD IS ONLY +1 AND THE LEAGUE DEFENCE IS IN THE BALANCE. DISGRACEFUL FOR A CLUB LIKE LIVERPOOL #FSGOUT

Just heard a snippet on German radio that Thiago will be unavailable for tomorrow’s opening Budesliga game with MĂŒnchen as this move is imminent. Then again, it was Radio Bob and if they are to be believed Led Zeppelin will be doing a world tour next year.
