Interesting. Wonder if loan is Patrick Roberts?

Could probably get Liverpool to pay Sakho's wages for us as they want VvD so much. I noticed SSN still have us interested in him on their Transfer Centre update.

Good player, but he's not exactly the aerial beast we'd need to replace VvD.

Boruc probably fancies a move

I would sell him TBH. (Although it's alleged that Bertrand & Cedric will kick-off if he goes, so I'd probably keep Virgil p*ssed off rather than having another 2 grumpy b*stards around the place).

Looks like we can rule out a player linked for the last season or 2...

A sad state of affairs, but really was inevitable. I would've loved for him to agree to stay another year, but the reality is that he's going to forsake a move this summer if he agrees to play etc. I look at the Coutinho situation today and saw the news that he wouldn't "rock the boat" at all. A somewhat rare & classy move by today's standards. If a club doesn't want to sell, and the player doesn't kick-off, then chances are that player will stay. Virgil knows the only way to increase his chances are to kick-off and make enough noise as he possibly can. The club are the bad-guys - They always are with the players that want to leave. Liverpool's tapping up & subsequent apology somewhat complicates things as they now feel they can't bid, so I suppose it gives Virgil all the more reason to spit his dummy out of the pram.

This is true. Did Liverpool sign Guan & K,Billy?

*Fingers-crossed* (Needs a slightly better source for me to get excited though)

Are they going for both?

STOKE CLOSE TO INDI DEAL Stoke City are close to completing the signing of defender Bruno Martins Indi from Porto in a cut-price deal, according to Sky sources. Last month, it looked like Crystal Palace were favourites to sign him, even though he spent last season on loan at the Bet365 Stadium - Stoke pulled out of negotiations, because they weren't prepared to meet Porto's demands for a fee over £10m. Now, we've been told the two clubs have shaken hands on a price of around £7.25m, and Martins Indi could sign for Stoke within the next few days.

How it should be handled.

FOSU-MENSAH HAVING PALACE MEDICAL Sky Sports News understands Manchester United defender Timothy Fosu-Mensah is currently having a medical at Crystal Palace ahead of season-long loan move to Selhurst Park.

Sh*t is getting real when Ulrich van Gobbel starts dropping flight knowledge

Random fact: Just checked my nerdy spreadsheet & we were actually linked with him 3 season's ago. (Same season we we linked with Kante / Iborra / Imbula etc).

The final insult. #ZiyechWatch

I should point out in the interest of accuracy that our Scouse friend is Darrren with 3 R's.

Fair play for even remembering who posted it.

Did I dream this? Or did somebody post on here recently (claiming to be ITK) that they'd heard we were after an "AMC" who had a year left on his contract? Can't find the post.

Gotta love it when the kids break up for the summer holidays....

Well lets see what happens. If Liverpool suddenly get £100m+ in their pocket, they are going to need to make 1 or 2 propaganda signings to make up for it, given all the media briefing about £60m/£70m signings arriving.

Not if his medical is tomorrow. So you can b00b watch, without distraction.
