Liverpool are skint!

 

[YNWA14]

I’m not worried about it. Plenty of academy players coming up, loans returning and our teams elite are all in their prime. Why would we need to keep buying players to block the young guys if we don’t need to? There’ll be opportunity to see if a buy is necessary. What’s the point of having elite youth if they never get a chance? Liverpool couldn’t really be in a much better position to start integrating top talents.

Almost 200k per week for Werner.

The speed up front is going to make us really dangerous now.

 

[Burner Account]

Did not see that coming. He was probably not getting 200k a week from Liverpool.

Not at striker. This isn’t blocking Elliot on the wing, Jones in midfield or Williams at right back. Liverpool don’t have a striker to block. It’s definitely not going to be Brewster.

Liverpool didn’t need a striker at 200k a week to be a backup.

they need a midfielder to play behind the top 3.

Someone like havertz..

 

[bleedblue1223]

That's why Werner never made much sense for Liverpool. Other teams were going to be able to guarantee more playing time and a bigger contract.

Exactly, I would have loved Werner to play cover for Sadio and Mo, but it would make sense money wise to pay a backup 200k a week

 

[Cassano]

Chelsea trying to close the gap between the top 2 with that signing. Still think they should sign Onana as well.

That being said... LFC will miss Mane and Salah and Keita for more than a month in the middle of the season....

 

[Pensionsraddare]

So much for that young revolution under Lampard Everybody knew they were just hiding behind that transferban and now they are buying everything with two legs. Feel sorry for the kids.

That’s a big if. Afcon might not even happen this year

Liverpool definitely need striker more than midfielder. We have midfielders. We don’t have attacking depth. Origi and Brewster are not enough in an AFCON season. Havertz would also be great but if LFC can’t afford Werner, they can’t afford Havertz.

To get there, we'd need to upgrade the back 4 and GK. It's a positive step though, especially since it sounds like a new LB is inevitable.

Havertz rumors value him at £50m

 

[bleedblue1223]

Does this open up David going to RB Leipzig?

 

[bleedblue1223]

Havertz rumors value him at £50m

Are you sure, all I've seen is about 100M, basically a bit less than Sancho.

 

[Savant]

Havertz rumors value him at £50m

No chance

Edited. I'm not sure how credible that number is but it's out there. Transfermarkt has him much closer to 100.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Havertz rumors value him at £50m

Does Liverpool have first refusal on Sancho and Havertz too, or just Werner?

 

[bleedblue1223]

I see. I can't see him going that low, maybe if he forces a move to a specific club.

Is that what you got from me sharing the valuation I saw reported by Sky Sports?

 

[Savant]

No Money.
