2015 Summer Transfer Thread

I think it's going to take too significant a bid for Wenger to convince LFC to sell to a rival. Talking £30m+player or £45m. He's definitely not worth that, but I think we'll ask that of a rival.

I think what we're going to see is similar to the Suarez situation. Sterling doesn't have a straight buyout in his contract, so he's going to be held hostage. He can either sign the £100k/week contract, or stay on £30k/week for another year.

Sterling has been playing like poo, with zero fire and urgency. He got 2 years left and Liverpool will have to sell him next year if not this and he knows it.

"James Milner reportedly turning down £160,000/week at City to move to Arsenal."

Man, how the fug are we supposed to compete when they can offer a squad/rotational player £160,000/week.

Milner would be an awesome back-up to Coquelin. Milner is very physical and still only 29 so he got 3-4 good years in him.

Sterling is very greedy. Liverpool won't balk at holding him hostage for 2 years on £30k/week. So, he can either sign his £100k/week contract or rot on the bench for 2 years and walk on a free. His call. Something tells me he'll take is £70k/week raise.

They are absolutely out of their minds to give Milner that sort of a contract. Guess that will have something to do with the homegrown rule (that's why they gave Boyota an absurd contract last season)

Heard sterling linked to City for around £40m but who knows if it's legit. I'd take that in a second though and immediately attempt to cash in on Lacazette

 

It makes sense, but I think we could squeeze £45m out of them. They are in desperate need of some squad revamping and adding young players should be at the top of their agenda.

City issues are their midfield... They are too soft in the middle, that's why they throw crazy money at Milner. I expect City to to sign 1 new striker, 2-3 midfielders and maybe a winger. Won't be surprised if Pogba goes to City for like £70m.

I expect City to lose at least Navas, Milner, Yaya and Dzeko.

Sterling would be good replacement but not sure if better than Navas.

Raheem Sterling reportedly has a sell-on clause from his original transfer from QPR in 2010. We'd owe QPR 20% if we sell to a domestic club and 25% if we sell abroad.

Dang... Looks like Liverpool better off trading player for player or selling to domestic team. QPR is smiling right now.

    • It will be really interesting to see how both sides handle this. I'm sure the team would love to get him signed to a 4 year deal based on his output so far and some potential factored in, i.e. something like a 4 year $30 million contract.  But I could see his agent telling him the best path is to take the one year offer, put up a big year next year and then really cash in. The team also has to keep in mind T-Mac's 2nd contract, which likely will happen after the 2027 season assuming he keeps improving as expected.  Even if we could get him on a budget 4 year deal for what he could become, the problem then becomes when he wants to re-negotiate in 2 years during the same summer we will extend T-Mac, and you don't want to spend that much on WRs in one offseason, just see the Bengals this last year. Taking everything into consideration, I'm thinking the 1 year deal and then getting him to sign a 4-5 year deal after hopefully say a 800ish yard season next year might be best for our cap situation and separate his and T-Mac's negotiation periods.
    • And yet jax made it no further than we did, and its very possible the Pats don't either. I think it speaks more to the overall down year for the nfl as far as having great/dominant teams, every team this year has fatal flaws that can be exploited 
    • Ehhh I agree the nfc is stronger this year but their really werent any truly dominant teams this year everyone is flawed, I think the narrative for the NFL this year will to try ahd force a Josh Allen SB win
