Gallowgate Toon Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Caicedo would be a very, very good pick up for Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Caicedo makes more sense for a Liverpool than Lavia. That little bit older and more mature. Also think he’s more athletic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I think Lavia is going to be brilliant but it's a very big responsibility for a young player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 31 minutes ago, The College Dropout said: I don’t get the big fuss about the PL record. If he stays in the league and fit he’ll get it. He’ll end up with more goals than Shearer in pro football and he may triple his England tally. There’s nothing to prove on that point. It’s not even like Shearer is the best PL striker we’ve seen and the record is proof. Question for the forum: overall whi is better - Kane or Rooney? Include their prime, overall career and talent. Rooney was a better footballer in terms of technique on the ball, he was amazing up until that metatarsal injury. After that he was still a fantastic player but he was less explosive. Kane is a better goalscorer and better long passer along the ground for sure. If I had to choose who I’d go for based on their entire careers, I’d probably go for Kane even though his career honours are pitiful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Has Lavia to Chelsea been facilitated by us buying Livramento? It means money has to pass from Southampton to Chelsea for his sell-on clause, unless a player goes there instead. With taxes, FFP or whatever, it might be easier to send a player. Or easier for Chelsea to outbid Liverpool for a Southampton player, given the credit they have the Southampton bank and what can be submitted to the authorities on paper as the price. fwiw, I think Caicedo is probably overrated. I suspect the safest bet to buy from Brighton would be Mitoma, the player with the highest individual skill that would be replicable in any system. I like Caicedo to Liverpool as a transfer, because its going to be Declan Rice money and all that bollocks about moneyball and "ceilings" goes out the window.

Abacus Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 My guess is this whole rumour about Kane just now thinking of staying at Spurs was a ploy by him to hurry the transfer along. He stays for another year, refuses to sign an extension as Levy has messed him around, then goes for free after that. Meaning Spurs need to take the offer or leave it.

gbandit Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I reckon even though Spurs have accepted the bid, it’s not out of the question he stays. He does have a get out clause though where he can say “I wanted to stay but the club agreed a fee and I felt I had to go given the club’s stance”.

I think he’d happily stay or go and he’d prefer the decision was made by someone else. He hasn’t pushed this move through but he’s been open to it is my reading on it all. I just think he doesn’t want to be painted as a disloyal player to the Spurs fans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazeT44 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I always thought Kane had no intention of leaving but was using interest from other PL clubs, Bayern and PSG as a negotiation tactic with Levy to either A) Get more money himself B) Strengthen the team around him...

Because I think Kane's is slightly better. First touch? About equal. Rooney was the better at manipulating the ball at his feet but that's more dribbling (close control, agility, balance etc.) than technique. Rooney was the more creative and audacious player too.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I'm not sure Bayern is that big a move TBH. Obviously he'll win the league but that's probably it. It's an interesting move though, and a change of challenge for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
