Liverpool's known for not paying big wages. Konate's on 80k a week. Only Salah and VVD get 400k. After that, it's Wirtz at 200k the rest are around 160 to 120. I reckon he's gone this summer, or he'll leave for free next year, with Madrid sniffing around. It will be interesting to see how Liverpool handle this situation.

Isn't he leaving this summer since he turned down a new contract and has a year left?

How much have Villa sold theirs? Your opinion is based on assumptions not fact. Your suggesting we do something based on others, where as we might have a set of different circumstances. 1. Chelsea’s womens team have won the wsl the past 5 years. 2. Villa finished 6th in the wsl, and have been in the wsl since 20/21. 3. We finished 5th in the Championship, and have been in that league for 1 season only. Is it worth it selling the womens team at the moment when its value is low? Is it not more prudent to wait amd see how much villa have sold theirs? Or untill we in the WSL?

How sure are you about this?

Players and agents are after more money, and clubs need more to pay them, which is why the Super League idea came about. The EPL is the biggest league in the world, right? 'Cause of Asia, Africa, and all that. That's why the TV deals are so huge, and the Spanish and Italian leagues are jealous. The EPL is kinda the super league lte as it were. So, it's either this, or the Super League, basically. At least this benefits club's from Africa and all. The super league wouldn't.

That "nobody watches" thing always strikes me as weird. Maybe it's not a big deal in Europe, but it's huge in Africa, Asia, and other places, and people are definitely watching. The club world cup goes far beyond Europe, they do not target Europe-only audience. For now Europe's acting all high and mighty. But with the money being thrown around, I bet the next few tournaments will be huge here, just like they are elsewhere. It'll be as big as the Champions League before long, I reckon. The money's too good for clubs to ignore. I personally hope We qualify for the next one. Hate or love it, it was always going to be a huge success.

'Cause we are losing it on social media about a rejected bid.

I agree. Very classless and I would be disappointed in the club if we go down that route. We're already competing, with two Champions League qualifications and two cup finals, winning one all in a space of 4 years and I think there's more to come. We'll get there, even if it takes a while and might be slower than we'd like, but anyone can see we're getting better every year, on and off the field. And we're still playing fair.

Which we dont know.

Nah, I'm not saying that, I'm just pointing out it's not as easy as you think. If you've thought about it, I'm sure the people in charge have, and they've made a decision not to go down those roads. I trust them more than you, and I'm sure they're doing the right thing, even if it's annoying for us fans. I'll remind you what Wor Mandy said. PIF are patient investors.

Newcastle United Football Club does not own St. James' Park. The stadium is owned by Newcastle City Council. While the club has a lease to play there, the land and stadium are owned by the council. Be patient mate. There is clearly a lot you dont know, even if you think you do.

Yeah, we don't know much, so it's easy to act like it's simple.

If not?

As soon as I saw 128 replies, I knew most of them will be Liverpool fans talking about Isak.

I agree, Wor Mandy did tell us in her first interview that PIF are patient investors, and they've got a plan to be the best in 5 to 10 years. We're in year 4, we've finished in the Champions League spots twice, won a trophy, and if Man City hadn't messed up that final, we'd have been in the Conference League, meaning three years in a row in Europe. Our revenue keeps going up, and it'll probably go up even more this year and next. I don't get where the impatience is coming from. We were told these guys are patient investors. We're being careful and doing things the right way, and we're still doing really well on the pitch.

100 million for Isak? Has to be ragebait for views. Liverpool sold coutinho for 142 million pounds to Barca.

Nah, the wages are a dealbreaker. He was on 130k at Everton, and he'll want a 3-year contract too. We should be looking for a young CM.

Got to get paid hey.

He was on about 80k at Leverkusen, and now he's making almost triple that. A 200k wage is huge at Liverpool. Only Salah and VVD get paid more than him. I think his agent did very well there.

Not many, Wirtz is apparently going to be on 200k. Saka is in about 195k. I feel if we really want to keep Isak an offer of 190k to 220k will see him sign an extension.

WTF did i just read!!?? These lot are honestly worse than Arsenal fans.

If he keeps saying it, even Barca might believe they want him and make an offer.

Fair Play, but as most fans agreed at the time, CL qualification came probably a season or 2 ahead of schedule, if you look at the squad we had in 23/24 we had two players at every position; Longstaff and Willock were solid starters, key to that 4th-place finish. We were stacked: three RBs, five CBs, two LBs, two RWs, two LWs, seven CMs, and two CFs. Saying going into that Season we couldn't handle the Prem and Champions League is wrong imo. Injuries wrecked us; we even had a whole starting eleven out at once! If we'd had better luck with injuries, we easily could've had 69 points instead of 60. This season, I don't think the club will change their successful transfer strategy. I really doubt they'll change it.

We dropped 140 million on Tino, Barnes, and Tonali. How much do you think we should have spent? And on which positions?

Yeah, Guehi totally wanted to join, but we couldn't agree on a deal with Palace, so it fell apart. Parish said Guehi's a pro with a great attitude and wouldn't force a move—just like those Isak-to-Liverpool rumors. That shows his character; even without the transfer, he didn't complain and captained his team to their first-ever trophy! That's exactly the kind of player we want—good attitude, professional, and room to grow. He'd fit right in if we get him.
