New movement as in 'This is what my mates are writing' (after our private Twitter conversation)?

This is yesterday's news, or tomorrow rumour by the sounds of it. Although, it'll keep a few going. Good on the lad.

Seems we've stepped back from the Pogba transfer. Hearing City have briefed the press the deal is looking like £135 million all-in, which is fucking ridiculous for this guy. Being reported Sterling doesn't want to go on tour with the dippers and has asked to stay in blighty.

All in, as in 'including his 6 year contract' at £10m a year......that's still a £70m transfer fee, exactly the same as it has been reported for a while now

No. He isn't. How would that work exactly.

Seems we've boxed him off and are trying to drive down the price. Sound familiar?

So we're holding out for £20m for Dzeko despite his agreeing to terms with Roma who wants to pay around £14m for him.
About to place a £50m bid for Sterling after he refuses to go on tour with Liverpool.
Dropping our pursuit of Pogba as Juve demanding £100m.
And now face competition for De Bryune from PSG with a £50m bid as he is allegedly their #1 target.

Did we had a plan B for Pogba, or that was the lad that went to Inter from Monaco?

There's not a plan B for a player like pogba. You get him or you don't.

To be fair, Tolmie said an hour ago it was all kicking off re Sterling and expect some new movement tonight and an hour later EVERY national paper reports right now that he's going on strike and not flying out on tour. He called that well.


That's interesting, as I often clock his "news" coming in after the papers have launched their stories.
"I used to be 6 foot 2 with curly hair, look what it's done to me"

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

Like half of Liverpool, probably. But he gets reported in the papers. Name and shame the rest of them as well, if you're going down that route. Bloody journalists.
