I'm not even convinced a lot of these players care about playing every week that much anymore, one big contract at a club like Chelsea and they're set for life. You'd think playing and developing would matter to them but it seems not, or else why go there except for money and the London life? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate they made a few quid with sales, but they're pushing to the limit. it’s something like they have an annual amortisation of around £200m since last summer (a little under but near enough) and they’ve brought in a load of profit from sales this summer that for this year balances it out. they’ll need to do similar next summer and the one after that if they want to keep up the big spends.

The sales are close enough to their purchases this season at this stage, there's still talk of Lavia,Olise, and more? They blew millions in TBs first outing, Liverpool might have good reason, obviously they're fucked off at being beat to multiple targets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was genuinely shocked at how (it seemed to me) Liverpool had declined since I was last there. Especially in comparison to Manchester. Might actually be a factor that people who have played here for a bit - like Lavia - might take into consideration. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Adams for £20m is a bargain compared to what Caicedo and Lavia went for. He may not have as high a ceiling as those two, but he’s a high-quality addition to most PL midfields. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
