Vesper 30,235 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) 4 hours ago, Blues Forever said: Son turns 30yo in a few weeks (July 8th) he is only 3 weeks younger than Salah (June 15th) why would Pool want to have (and they would have to dump out at LEAST £80m to prise away Son) Mane (31yo this coming season) Firmino (31yo in 4 months) and then the two who turn 31 right after next season ends (Salah and Son) as 4 of their top 6 six attackers? makes no sense Firmino is already in big decline Mane is showing the very beginnings of cracks of age (I know many will call me an idiot, but I can see it, I think he has only 1, or maybe, maybe two (MAX) big years left) Salah will not last forever, and he already started to slump the 2nd half. he is BY far the most reliant of all 4 on a huge explosive burst Son looks to be in prime, but how long will he last at that level? Is 2 more (MAYBE 3) peak years worth £80m, 90m? In terms of wingers, other than Messi and the sorta winger CR7 (who both are now finally in massive decline) what WC wingers are out there who are 31,32, 33 or older? Ángel Di María has hit the wall Hazard went to shit at 30yo Neymar at 30yo is in decline Lorenzo Insigne tailed off as soon as he hit 30yo The only one you can make a case for is Riyad Mahrez (who barely qualifies age-wise), and he was 30yo for over half the season, and he tailed off the 2nd half. 2/3rds of his 24 goals came before he turned 31yo in February There are only 6 wingers atm valued at £20m or more on T-Markt who are 30yo or older, and one of them is Messi, and the other was 30yo 3 and half moths ago (Mahrez) The others are all 30yo on the nose Edited May 29, 2022 by Vesper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FDJ is a model pro, he isn't going to say anything else and will want it to be clear if he leaves it is because he had to owing to Barca needing the dollar.

I am not sure if it is quite $500m bad but they will need a cash injection and sell someone like FDJ to be able to sign players to relatively big time wage deals. This is why they cannot get an agreement with Dembele (he is wanting super wages) and they are shopping in the bargain bin in the transfer market.
