Interesting news this morning with the Reds signing Naby Keita for $48 million pound plus a "premium" for next season.
I wonder if this will be a trend we start to see in difficult negotiations or with young "wonder kids".

Interesting business that we seem to do. Didn't we sign Origi and loan him back for the next season?
I think this is a bit more tactical. They obviously want to keep him this year. Much the same as us and coutinho. Pay 48M and a "premium" to bump it up to, I imagine 60M at least.
We get our player, before other clubs can trigger the clause as well and pay overs on the salary. And good business for them, keep their player for a season, plan ahead, get more than the clause when they sell.
Hope he lives up to his price tag.
Will Sakho be missed?
Liverpool should sign like 50 defenders then play them one or 2 games each because they all seem to have blinders on debut then turn to shit. Sell a couple of them after each game and they'll prob win the league.
I'm not a registered coach of general manager though.
Oxlade Chamberlain
40 million
FMD
Wenger must have been laughing his arse off when he heard your offer
why?
I have a pin dick

40 Mil for a back up/bench warmer Arsenal actually did some good business
40 M is excessive. For somebody we will be deploying as a bench/squad player.
Only thing he has going for him is he would be pretty determined to make a go of it to prove everyone wrong.
Here's hoping anyway.
I think Henderson is one of the best pure midfielders in the prem.
love watching him play. proper focal point, always open, always looking for the ball, always making the smart pass.
blokes like Ox would love having him boss the mids. makes his job easier, and he clearly didnt have the same type of player at Arsenal.
reackon he could be a real good signing.
Ox wants to play Cm as a starter, Is he better then Hendersen or Can?
Yeah he that great of a player his club have won **** all whilst he there
He just a poor man's Iniesta
wrong again. being a good player never guarantees trophies
But it tends to mean that clubs challenging for trophies try signing you or do sign you
you should have used this example instead of the defunct trophy argument. He is a usual 1st team player in a top 4 team so cant say he isnt good.
A great player will be constantly hit on for a move.
Im wondering how long Salah can keep his form.
Except that when his team was coasting to the title he got suspended and cost them the Prem.
So yeah that prob explains his importance.
Salah is Dirk Kuyt with an Afro.
That's not a sledge, because Benitez made him an invaluable player.........by teaching him to pass to Torres.
Hopefully Klopp can work the same magic.
So true.
Oxlade isn't worth 40 Million but it was either you sign him now or he goes to Chelsea. Chelsea actually forced your hand to bid on him now rather than him arriving on a free at the end of the year.
After the Liverpool loss Arsene blew up at everyone and told them that whoever wanted to go would be sold. Even Mustafi was sanctioned to be sold for 35 million but Inter said no and he is a first choice CB but Wenger got the shits and told everyone that they were for sale. So the Ox was definitely leaving this window no matter where he went and once Chelsea bid 40 million you had to bid as well.
He will be your new James Milner. Good but not great, will have some amazing games against tough opposition but won't consistently play to that level and win you trophies. But he always idolised Gerrard so he is happy. I don't think Arsenal are going to take a massive step back with him leaving. No one wins, no one loses... Except Chelsea who instead went and overspent on a very strong/fit/great crossing wingback that can't defend great. Just like what City did... 3 times this window no less, lol.
I saw Ox play live one day. Him and Theo on the flanks RVP up front and just a bunch of dudes hanging around.
They put 7 past the hapless assholes who dared show up to play.
I walked out of the Emirates thinking Arsenal were gonna win the title by 100pts but Wenger pretty much didn't play that formation (and sold Song) for the rest of the year.
I reackon Ox is a real good player. When billionaires are hassling what's 2,5 or 10 million if it gets you closer to glory.
I hope he does well.
