You'll have to remind me of all the players Liverpool have cashed in on in the last five years. Don't say Coutinho as he fits exactly the scenario I cover in my post above. Liverpool rejected offers and he went only when the player was very clear he wanted to leave. Literally the opposite of cashing in.

I think the phrase "planned to" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. If Real came in with £100m and the player wants to go then it happens. Thats not quite the same as the club working to a buy-to-sell approach like we do.

Probably nothing as it looks like he's being sold for the same as they bought him for, so there is no profit on the transfer. I think we've done fine on Mane add-ons anyway = he's played loads, scored loads and they've won everything. When you sell to Liverpool that's the main thing, Liverpool aren't signing players to sell on to someone else for more money later.

Absolutely unacceptable in all situations. Dreadful.

400k for a 17 year old is quite a lot of money and not something we do often. It is the kind of thing Chelsea and City do often. You're making out like City plucked from playing Tyro League at the Sports Centre from right under our noses.

15% of the population will die. Just wait and see. Just the 10m funerals. Any day now.

That is the fixture list of a relegated team.

Manchester United away

When Palace (I think was Palace, or was it Stoke?) bought young Jack Butland there was a mini meltdown on here that we should have been in for him as he was destined to be England's number one and we were guaranteed to quadruple our money on him. It didn't quite work out like that for Jack. Or Palace. Or was it Stoke. What we're doing here feels like a similar gamble. Or, for something more recent, like that time we bought Angus Gunn. Basically it might work. But it might not. Definitely not a sure thing.

You need to get used to DT, just the normal transfer window routine. Every single event happening at any club in world football means something negative will happen at Southampton Football Club. If you want to see how Crystal Palace putting an offer in for a Portuguese full back can be interpreted as evidence that JWP will be sold next week, strap in.

I'd rather we committed to three years of paying Danny Ings £100k a week because it is absolutely impossible to find anyone anywhere better and cheaper like Broja because those players simply do not exist.

He's got two years left on his Villa contract whether he plays or not so I don't reckon that's a goer.

Channel 4 I hope you are fucking proud of yourself.

Valenciennes sounds like a made-up club name off of Pro-Evo.

You keep replying to me sweetheart x x x

Any news on Paul Mitchell?

Any news on Jose Fonte?

Jesus wept. This is going to be your new obsession is it?

But I've just put seventy-five quid on him winning the Ballon D'Or next season. FFS.

This is Guido Carillo scale goal statistic manipulation. If he is the second coming of Mane as you are suggesting then I am sure Spurs or Arsenal will be in for him any day now.

It wasn't that great for the rest of us.

Did he, or did he not, score last season? I REST MY CASE

Bazunu is not "a story made up by the Daily Mail", that's pretty clear now. And its not about "calming down", it is obvious that we are not going to spend £10m on a young keeper with genuine expectations of first team football and then immediately sign another Premier League regular, established starter on top of that. We are not going to have three potential first choice keepers. The Bazunu deal can still fall through, or we get gazumped or whatever. But let's not get distracted by pie-in-the-sky scenarios that won't happen.

We may rue the day Livramento turned out to be good. We've got an entire window of us signing Tinos in every frigging position. Front to back we have the magic formula, we know best, we're the black box recruitment genius brigade.

I reckon it will definitely be available to buy during "the summer before the season starts".
