    We are living in the age of managers rather than players it seems and we got one of the best ones around. So I’m not too bothered about who comes in as much despite my dislike of Lovren and Milner at left back.

    The club should never have let Can (or any player) get less than 2 years on their contract. it should be deal or shipped out at the 2 year mark. Now, we’re in a position of having to accept £20m for a player who is probably worth £30, or even £40m with how the market has gone totally insane.

    If Can rejects a £100k/week contract i would see this as a betrayal. The club have been nothing but loyal and supportive to him and are offering him a fantastic deal (way more than I’d offer him), only for him to either wind down his contract or use the short time on it to twist our arm into accepting a bid that is far below his current market value?

    if this is true, he’s dead to me. I’m hoping it’s just media BS and a signature is imminent.

    Then again, maybe we’re moving him on as a result of the future signing of Keita?

    Can understand your frustration MrMak, but I dont blame him, tbh.

    He looks ambitious and will struggle to get into the team if all players are available. Our midfield is strong and if Hendo, Keita (TBC), Lallana, Milner and Wijnaldum are all available, He may struggle.

    I hope he does stay as he has potential, but would not be too upset if he did choose to go. for 20m, we may as well hold out – someone will offer that in January alone! 🙂

    I have read various reports though and some say he is coming back from hols to pen a new deal.

    I’m as passionate as the next fan, but we should be careful not to slip into hyperbole. ‘He’s dead to me’ is an extremely distasteful way to speak about anyone, let alone one of our players and I find it unacceptable.

    Had to laugh at myself, woke up from nap to see a flurry of posts saying that we had VVD and deal was done… I was excited, read all the page to the bottom just to realise that I was on page one… Back to reality​ with a thud lol.

    There is another podcast talking about Lazio’s Savic as a good alternative to Keita. Also able to run with the ball from deep positions and tackle.

    Even if we don’t sign anyone else I think Klopp as manager is more important. We didn’t lose to any of the top six last year, and a lot of that is Klopp. Klopp just needs to improve the players against the weaker teams. Sometimes against the weaker teams I felt we played a little too much like Arsenal. Always looking for that special pass/goal. Hopefully, Klopp will school them in the art of being ugly as well, once we get that into our system we will be deadly.

    Maybe all the VVD talk will make Lovren step up this season again, it’s a long shot but you never know. Lovren has the offer of a new contract extension which hasn’t kicked in, if he can step up his game then that could be like a new signing. I don’t hold much hope for that but I know Klopp is good at getting players to get better so anything is possible ?

    Nediarb2, perhaps you wouldn’t do me the disservice of leaving out the “if this is true,” part but how could you possibly be outraged then, right?

    No,it makes no difference, it’s still distasteful and I have no wish to be perturbed, I just am.

    Hi,

    @gabara I think you completely misinterpreted the situation, Benteke himself came out to say that it was him who ran to him becuse they had thier own special handshake. Just because Klopp does not see eye to eye with Sahko in respect to what happened last summer is one thing but to throw Sahko under the buss is wrong. Why wpuldnt he allowed to see the game? was he supposed to completely ingore Benteke? To me its a pitty we wont give Sakho another chance! In my humble ipinion I think he would be excellent and we all know how much he likes the club. In the end of the day its Klopps choice.

    Still waiting for VVD and Keita

    Soooooo

    They say that FSG is about to make a amazying signing that would have us FANS drooling—
    I wonder who it is… If its an attacker i would want it to be ASSENSIO or Dembele (Dortmund) or Lemar or Mbape and if its Midfield Keita or Niangola or Bakayoko or Isco (okay Isco is more attacking) Deffenfe VVD

    Well at least tomorrow there is the first preseason game.. Man i cant wait to see Mane Firminho Salha and Coutinho tear up defences… this YEARS gonna be supper wicked!

    Dead to me, what a load of crap, as always you go way over the top.

    If Can does not sign a new contract im perfectly happy with keeping him for a season and seeing him leave on free, he has done us great service during his time here and if he wants a new challenge then good luck to him.

    Having said that I just hope he commits his future to the club, he is a valued player and likely to be in the first team, we should not sell him for 20 million even if he refuses to sign a new contract.

    Speaking about a load of crap, your logic is way off (as always). You think a want away Can would be worth keeping at £20m + wages for a season? I forgot he’s worth £200m, sorry.

    I stated that he was worth 100 million on a long term contract. You said that no player was worth that and that it was still years until we saw that kind of figures being mentioned. Yeah like always im way off.

    It would be worth 20 million plus his wages if we can make an aussult for the title. More than that if we actually won the title.

    We signed him on a contract for a certain amount of years, we can’t complain when that time frame is up.

    I never said that no player was worth 3100m. If you can quote me on that I’d love to see it.

    the conversation was that your average player would be worth £100m in 5 years. Even with this explosion you’re still going to be wrong by a massive margin because a good player is pretty good player is £30m. So yes, you’re always off, as you’ve just proven, with your poor recollection of your own concept. You know, maybe don’t talk shit about someone and then be wrong while doing it. fucking idiot.

    Because good player is a pretty good player is £30m? What is that supposed to mean. 30 million get you a pretty average player these days, if the next tv-contract follows the same algorythm as the previous 5 contracts its pretty obvious that the goin price is going up to around £100m in about 5 years.

    Im on the phone so I’m gonna skip looking for that quote of yours but it’s there, I’m pretty certain about that.

    You got to accept one thing, if you go overboard on one of the players, “dead to me” over reacting putting your voice out there you are going to have a response, somebody calling you out on your bullshit. Until then, keep barking, you got no bite.

    Again, I’m sorry that I said that about your girlfriend, Princess.

    You either go find the quote or you don’t reference it. Ya, I said that no player would ever be worth £200m when Messi/Ronaldo had been worth about that for years now.

    As for the “no bite” remark, what on earth are you drooling about here? this is a forum and you’re talking like I’ve threatened you or something. . .

    i like grujic bingo, Hes very rash, gets to many yellow cards but hes a good player.

    if reports are to be believed then keita bid has been rejected. I really think the player is going to have to push for a move. I think we will get vvd without him requesting a transfer fee.

    we need players. A left full and keita and vvd be a brilliant summer.
