If they had to pay a reasonable fee to LFC for him, the chances are they would have had no interest in signing him..!!
I find it hard to fathom, why Trent if he believed in his talent and truly loved us, why he couldn’t have done something akin to what Macca did at Brighton.
Then if RM aren’t interested then it just proves they dont value him enough.
I would have hoped that he would have enough pride in himself and his ability to do as Macca did and call RM’s bluff and if they didn’t then want to buy him he would have dodged a bullet.
Thinking of this just proves what player and person we have in Macca, felt enough for Brighton, to extend his contract with a low buyout clause, therefore, ensuring Brighton got something for him and repaying them for believing in him and helping him to become the player he his.
Hold on, there’s no need for that. Since people are so preoccupied with him leaving on a free, Real Madrid could just pay us exactly the sum of the prize money for winning the Club World Cup in exchange for an early release from his contract. I’d see that as a win-win.
Well he becomes a free agent, so he can sign for who he wants. I suppose the only thing that could cause an issue would be if he picked up a serious injury before completion. That’s unlikely, given that we will be playing Bradley as much as possible for the last two games.
I was in an Arsenal pub (Tollington Arms) not far from the Emirates, having jumped out of an A&B gig. Arsenal fans were celebrating as i sat alone at the bar wanting a hole in the ground to appear and swallow me up
