MacAllister had 1 year left on his contract at the start of last season and got that deal prior to the World Cup. Hence negotiating a good release clause price. 
 

Clubs like West Ham could’ve put the feelers out to him and have been rebuffed. That’s what I think may have happened to us with Maddison. He probably said that he didn’t fancy the move so we weren’t linked again this summer. 

I also think it's a genuine factor in Brightons operating model.

 

They get players in with the promise of game time and show casing their talents in the premier League.

 

Maybe they were unlucky setting McAllister's contract at 45 million in a summer when fees jumped up massively but then at the same time got lucky that there was no clause on Cacidoes.

I know how release clauses work.

 

If there was actually a 45M release clause - there would be Hounds at the gate for his signature. 

But Liverpool are still a huge club with amazing facilities and coaching setup. They also pay big wages. Why wouldn’t a player go there if they pay the fee? Your take is a little bizarre. Are you suggesting he should’ve gone to Real Madrid etc? They obviously weren’t interested.

I reckon they will sell before the end of the window. Doesn’t serve to have a player who’s desperate to get out when you’re trying to get promoted. They need to line someone up though and won’t get anyone near his quality with the money they have to spend because of being in the championship

Not sure what point you’re trying to make my man. As much as I hate them, Liverpool are a massive massive club that any player would be lucky to play for. They hit his release clause, put triple his wages on the table, he signed. It’s incredibly straight forward.

Was confused as to your post. Joelinton was called up.

 

yeah I know, but the way I read it was that he was called up as a replacement for Paqueta? he should be in the squad regardless, was my point. would he have been?
