Players at his age become greedy and would rather have the signing fees sent to his pocket than to the club; Liverpool should learn from the Mbappe deal; it is too risky to let someone like that run his contract for 12 months. He won't get anywhere near wages he was presented with last season if he decides to go, which is ample motivation to punish Liverpool by walking out for free next summer.
KDB stays- another greedy mistake from Manchester city.
Yep, agreed - basically on both fronts. We should have sold Salah, we need to sell him this season, if we don't, we won't be able to match the signing on fee he'll receive from Arabia - so we'd lose him for nothing.
I still believe we can get close to 100 mil, for Saudis 10 is the same as 100. I'd actually force them to make a statement out of it, to show the world how rich they are. I'd start the negotiations at 300 million, saying 'make the biggest transfer the world has ever seen'.
Basically dare them into it, there's a decent chance that they'd actually think it is a smart marketing move.
Regarding KDB - I felt this is a blessing in disguise for Pep - he would have got some real hate for forcing KDB out - and he looks ready to be forced out of that team.
I adore the guy, he's one of the best that we've seen in this league, but although statistically still brilliant last season, he did look a step too slow in a lot of situations.
