Liverpool should take the money and run.PSG apparently have made a (big) bid on Sturridge

But he's old, injured and PSG could dip into the L1 market and pay half the price for someone younger and healthy.Sturridge has very bad legs, but is a great finisher and could still score a crapload of goals playing for the right team.
What qualifies as a big bid on Sturridge? 30m?
Well the last time he was paired alongside a world-class Uruguayan striker....

But PSG NEVER buys in L1

Maybe it's a good they don't buy in L1 (well they did buy Kurzawa).
We have seen Juventus and Bayern- teams that were already dominating their respective leagues- increasing the gap further by acquiring their rivals' top players and weakening the competition

In a way yeah, but other teams will buy out of L1 anyway.
Since L1 is arguably the best market for top teams, it's absolutely idiotic for PSG to buy foreigners who are more expensive and probably not better.
Case in point : they bought Lucas instead of Hazard. They bought Meunier instead of Corchia. They bought Jese instead of Dembélé.
Wait, you're saying Sturridge is better than Cavani and Lacazette
No, you can't make the same list for every league because L1 is the league that produces the most talent these days. And since it's quite affordable overall (much more than say english young talent), it's stupid by PSG not to buy L1. Monaco did and I'd say they did pretty well (Mendy, Sidibé, Lemar, Bakayoko, etc...).
Haha. Why even bother replying if you are not going to read my post? I guess that "amazed" smiley is quite fitting.
What? "JUST BECAUSE"? No, the volume of young talents is higher because France has the best academies in the world. Period.I agree that the volume of "talents" is higher in France just because the league is weaker.
Are we talking about the Mané that comes from Metz and the Pogba that comes from Le Havre?You could quite easily build a half decent team in the PL as well if you picked players that came through youth teams (assuming you bought them before breaking out) and/or players first being successful at one of the "smaller" clubs. Bale, Pogba, Alli, Mane, Kane etc. - would be half decent.
"no way that you will find a cheap striker in France being better than the Sturridge from 13-14 (any striker in France if you ask me - including Cavani and Lacazette)"
ANY striker, including Cavani and Lacazette.
Either your sentence is badly written, or at least there's a lot of doubt as to how to interpret it.

France has the most professionnal players in Europe in the top 5 league.

And now they want Naby Keita for 25M€+.
While he was available for 1.5M€ when he was in France.
Have you noticed Cavani is the best scorer in Europe? Wondering... Even Savi has shut his mouth
Do you really think Keita would be as good as he is today had he joined PSG 3 years ago?
