Now for Coutinho who, if reports are to be believed, has requested not to be included in Liverpool's CL Squad

The reports came from BeIn and some are calling it BS, but even if its true all he's doing is damaging his own career. If he wants to play World cup next year for Brazil, he better put his big boy pants on get on with it.

PSG signed Mbappe for 180m. Monaco has loaned him to PSG this season with obligatory buy clause.

wait I thought they out right bought him,,

this transfer market is INSANE

I am actually happy united bought Lukaku so early ..he would otherwise be going for over 100 mil

Behrox said:

I still hold to the belief that Belotti would have been a better and cheaper purchase

Behrox said:

lukkaku. Similar profile and better technical skills

Well he has began the season perfectly....his holdup play, striking, physicality and ability to pull defenders (which allows for rashford, mikhi and martial to run into spaces) is exceptional..his run-making needs work..lets see how it pans out

Holy hell, 180m for Mbappe is quite a lot. I mean compared to that if Martial fulfills his potential, that 50m Utd paid for him would be a bargain. Its true this transfer market is insane. The best part was Lemar rejecting Arsenal because he only wants to play for Liverpool. I'm so glad we got our allure back with players actually preferring to play for us like Ox rejecting huge money from Chelsea and Lemar although that didn't materialize.
I still have no idea how PSG managed to play by FFP rules.


BTW, any F1 fans here? I was thinking of creating a thread for F1.

Lemar didnt reject Arsenal for liverpool >

Thomas Lemar wanted to join both Arsenal and Liverpool, claims AS Monaco vice president | The Independent

Vasilyev claims Lemar was desperate for a move to the Premier League and that it was the club who stopped him leaving.‘It was not easy,’ he said. ‘Thomas wanted to go to Arsenal and to Liverpool, but we had discussions and we took a communal decision so that he could stay here.
‘He is a very important player for us.’

Thomas Lemar[FONT=&quot] was keen on a move to both [/FONT]Arsenal[FONT=&quot] and [/FONT]Liverpool[FONT=&quot]this summer, according to [/FONT]Monaco[FONT=&quot] vice president Vadim Vasilyev. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has come in for criticism since failing to land Lemar on transfer deadline day, with reports suggesting the midfielder rejected a move to north London because he did not want to play in the Europa League.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]However, Vasilyev has suggested this is not entirely true. Instead, Monaco and the player came to an agreement that he would not leave because his departure would damage the club too greatly[/FONT][FONT=&quot].[/FONT]

Oh, I was under the impression he rejected Arsenal because so many reports came out about him rejecting and waiting out for Liverpool.

Really pissed at Liverpool for missing like a million chances to score.

I've heard Hoffenheim's manager Julian Nagelsmann is also being considered

Ancelotti's sacking came as a shock though. Tuchel and Nagelsmann are solid choice, particularly Nagelsmann considering how he lifted Hoffenheim. Where is Luis Enrique at? Isn't he being shortlisted?
