If only we had gotten Nicolo Barella under Sarri...

We tried in January 2019. If we got him back than we would not buy Kovacic 6 months later. Sarri also wanted Aouar.

Both better players than Kova tbh. Since he was the only player we could sign last summer because of the transfer ban I am not sure we would buy him in normal situation.

I wonder how we would look right now if Sarri stayed and we had no transfer ban. Pulisic would be good in his system too. And defense would be much better even with transfer ban

Chelsea have offered Batshuayi to Leeds for €25m. Leeds are considering if he fits in their spending budget this window.

If Thiago price with just one year left on contract is 30m no chance we will get 25m for Michy. And Pool dont even want to pay 30m to Bayern.

15m is realistic price for Michy.

20m i would say. I think age plays a major role.

Yep. I'd say due to age Batshuayi in three years will have more resale value than Thiago, unless he fails spectacularly at his next club.

Also need to consider the wages. Thiago as a world class player will demand two or three times more money in wages than Batshuayi, who probably wouldn't even get what he currently makes at Leeds. And anyway, what does Liverpool being too broke to buy Thiago at a more than reasonable transfer fee got to do with Batshuayi's valuation?

I do think €25M is too much for Michy but I also wouldn't be surprised if Leeds actually paid it. They have money to spend following their promotion and Michy is probably one of few strikers with big league experience they could realistically go for. I'd be happy with anything above €15M but let's hope Marina can negotiate a good price.

They don't for normal news so why would this be any different 🤔

That is a Daily Star story. Bottom tier source

Re-upping this. In general, it is a good measure of reliability

[Jase 43,479]

So, pre-season starts this Friday and we still haven't bought any new players other than Werner and Ziyech and we still have all the deadwoods...

Tbh very little activity all around the Europe. Market is open for 48 more days. Everything will be fine

Could care less about what other clubs do...

We kind of depend on them to buy our deadwoods...

But it also depends on whether Marina sets reasonable price to tempt buyers.

You would think with all the players we need to offload and the areas we need to improve, there would be some action?

If the media is to believed we are actively working on getting rid of Emerson, Baka and Bats as well as getting in Havertz and Chillwell. Would be nice if anything would get done at some point though.

20 million for each would be great business.

Has anyone seen much of Sarr from Nice? Isn't he a highly rated CB on a free?

Apparently off to Barca.
