I'm saying that would mean they won't bid that high!

With Spurs bidding?

If wages wernt an issue, you'd have thought Ron would be interested. Would be ideal playing Left sided centre-back of a 3 or in midfield.

Well judging from my question posed above, nobody wants this to happen

We were linked with him recently, I believe?

Any takers? Yes please. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2016/05/30/arsene-wenger-ready-to-send-calum-chambers-out-on-loan-as-arsena/

Think he was linked earlier this summer as his name rings a bell.

Fantastic for the lad. Loan him straight back there again next season?

English champions Leicester City are set to strengthen their squad for next season by signing World Cup winner goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler from relegated Hanover 96, the German club announced on Sunday. The 27-year-old 'keeper is set to travel to England on Monday to complete the medical with his transfer to cost a reported 3.5m euros after he activated a release clause in his Hanover contract.

Not sure Shane suits their plan of buying young, either.

SSN Reporter (& Spurs fan) Lyall Thomas tweet: Pochettino at Ireland-Holland to watch Vincent Janssen, if anyone. He's on the list.#THFC

Whilst I don't doubt Liverpool would want him, I don't particularly see why they would want him if they can't get Gotze. They aren't anything like each other are they? I would have said Gotze is more similar to Coutinho. They don't really have anybody like Mane in their squad.

Viktor Fischer signs for 'Boro : Confirmed. http://www.mfc.co.uk/news/article/2016/middlesbrough-fc-boro-ajax-viktor-fischer-3125599.aspx

Doh. Was hoping Liverpool would sign him. (So as to avoid the possible Bertrand scenario above)

Sign it Ronald!

Liverpool have completed Phase 1 & 2 of their Summer recruitment: 1) Identify Southampton Player. 2) Leak interest to media in attempt to unsettle. Phase 3 is either going to be 'make insultingly low bid' or have Klopp mention him in an interview. Shortly after there will be mention of: "it is understood the player is keen on a move to Anfield"

I suppose it all depends on if Jose wants him. You'd have thought Spurs might come in for him as well? Possibly City?

Bascombe knows his stuff too. I'm sure the Liverpool would love Mane... But reading between the lines, I still think Liverpool will get Gotze.
