Koke Posted 19 July 2018 Share Posted 19 July 2018 Some forget that Schmeichel won our POTY in 16/17. In our CL campaign. He's been outstanding in most games during his 7 years at the club. He's the best keeper we've had in my life time by a mile.. That said, if Chelsea want him for £30m they can have him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed with you up until that last sentence. On Danny Ward, fully onboard with this signing, looks like we're strengthening in a lot of positions this transfer window 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerard Posted 19 July 2018 Share Posted 19 July 2018 Just seen this on a Liverpool forum. Danny ward is on his way to Leicester for 12mil. Suddenly Alisson looks cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurru991 Posted 20 July 2018 Share Posted 20 July 2018 As per usual, we are trashing the guy before he has pulled on a City shirt. What we paid is immaterial to us and the player. 25 is a great age to pick up a keeper and develop him. I could care less what the liverpool or huddersfield fans think. Lets see him play !! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPH Posted 20 July 2018 Share Posted 20 July 2018 Oh a 20% sell on? Fantastic stuff. Take down tbe Rudkin statue! some dodgy deals going on.. 40 million for Musa and 12.5 for Liverpool’s 4th choice keeper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hack Posted 20 July 2018 Share Posted 20 July 2018 13 hours ago, Gerard said: Where do I start with this? I never said Lunin would come here to be back up I'm just comparing the value. Real Madrid get a 19yo wonderkid Ukrainian international whilst we sign a 25yo with 70 first team games mainly on loan to a Championship and SPL team. I also said Butland would be available for £10m more than the reported £12m fee for Ward. They're both the same age and for the prices Butland seems the far better option, buy cheap buy twice might be the after thought here in a year or so. Angus Gunn had a far higher reputation and whilst I can't judge the three GK's discussed with any certainty on the fave of it £12m for Ward is the worst buy out of the three. Liverpool would be desperate to get rid of a GK as they'll now have four on the books with biggish wages so we've offered them a lifeline by purchasing their 4th choice for £12m. It just looks terrible business by us whatever way you look at it. I am sure Stoke have made it clear they want 30 mil for Butland. Not sure where you get he is available for 10 mil?

I was also lucky enough to have been sitting near Kasper for the West Ham game and spoke to him and he was annoyed not to have been playing that game as he thought he was ready to comeback and really thought he would be in the starting lineup for the Spurs game, which he didn't play. Maybe there is something going on with him not being guaranteed the starting spot and or a bid is in for him and we maybe planning life post Kasper. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vindaloo FOX Posted 20 July 2018 Share Posted 20 July 2018 call me crazy but I don't think this is a bad deal. yes, it is a risk but most transfers are. I am hearing good things about Danny, he is 25 so not yet at his is prime for a goalkeeper but he will learn from Kasper. I think he will become our number 1 keeper in the near future. 12.5 million is the new 7.5 million in this day and age sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaspar needs to know that if he's not putting in the performances he's not undroppable or untransferrable. He sometimes for me last season was too much in the comfort zone and less of a team player also. At times he appears to think too much of himself.

I would guess that it is Liverpool leaking the info to make the deal sound good for them (and bad for us). It’s in their interest to do so having just spent so much on Allison. The fee may eventually rise to 12m but I doubt we’re paying half of that upfront. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LESTER-JESTER Posted 20 July 2018 Share Posted 20 July 2018 Sam Johnstone would have been a good signing from Man United but WBA brought him for 6.5m as a replacement for Ben Foster, who joined Watford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how much we'd have had to pay for him if he played for Fulham and he'd just got promoted last season from the Championship. I think the fee would still have been around that if they'd even entertain selling him. The notion that he was 3rd choice last season, therefore 4th choice now and that Liverpool must be laughing their heads off is wide of the mark. They evidently wanted him to force his way in to being first choice until they've signed Alisson and its taken a large bid to agree to sell. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TheUltimateWinner Posted 20 July 2018 Popular Post Share Posted 20 July 2018 Only me who doesn't really see a problem with this signing? Remember the squad Pearson built was based on young hungry players with a point to prove. This lad will be kicking himself he never made the breakthrough at Liverpool. 12M unfortunately is not much in this day and age, for a young goalkeeper like Ward with a decent amount of experience for his age it's what you're expected to pay. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
