FoxyJim1987 Posted 26 August 2022 Posted 26 August 2022 Anyone saying we are hard up clearly doesn't have a clue. We have hundreds of millions to spend on a major redevelopment of the east stand and the surrounding area (hotel, car park, arena etc) and have turned down bids for Fofana, Maddison and Soumare that we know of. We might have one too many cloggers we want to flog and we might be being tight due to off the field plans and last season's spending debacle, but we are hardly maxing out our credit cards. 2

Not if he had been the star of the moment...Don't forget , within only a few months,because of his indifferent show of form,his star has lost its & his twinkle. If he had stayed THE MAN, less months on his contract wouldn't of made any difference...They would be clammering at the gates... This could be good for us...finding & keeping such talent,we have always found it impossible...Maybe he rekindles his form after window closes we have a gem for another 1-2 seasons. Maybe a gem where big clubs,don't want to take that gamble. He resigns for us & decides to stay... KDH/Tielemans future discussions who will be the next club captain..?? All speculation, but I see a win win situation for us...

Cannot stand the transfer window for this very reason. Some of them act as though it's the biggest thing in football. 2

Realistically, even if he was the star man, we wouldn’t get his actual worth in the market - he’s young enough for someone to wait for him. Hence, the fee reduces.

I'm just making a differentiation here between YT and WF. YT has been very professional. I suppose it helps that no one has come in for YT, he can’t exactly moan if that’s the case.
LFox99 Posted 26 August 2022 Posted 26 August 2022 They're looking for a #8 who can potentially play as #6 as well Surely with Nunes now at Wolves, Youri has to be on their list

JamesWelshFox Posted 26 August 2022 Posted 26 August 2022 No wonder Youri's head is in the shed. Has tried to remain focussed and largely done so until lately, but for the last 6-9 months Arsenal have been giving it all the he is ours and seem to have chucked him over. Hope Liverpool take him and serve Arsenal right. Is a good lad, won us an FA Cup, will wish him all the best.

Nicolo Barella Posted 27 August 2022 Posted 27 August 2022 Youri to Liverpool for about £25 million would be fantastic. I'd say a £7 million loss is well worth the quality he has brought to our squad.

Lei vs Liv at KP last year. Klopp was lurking near our changing room. Welcomed Youri like a favourite nephew. Can see them putting in a late low offer….
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 27 August 2022 Posted 27 August 2022 Despite him being poor over the last 18 months or so, unlike Perez, he will leave with a big pat on the back. He’s got flaws, but he gave me the single goal I’ve celebrated the most wildly, and for that he should be thanked. 4

It’s so obvious. Chelsea are the worst and I’m surprised we haven’t put a complaint in! Ah well doesn’t apply to the “top” clubs. Edited 27 August 2022 by fox_favourite
st albans fox Posted 27 August 2022 Posted 27 August 2022 If he’s going, would love to see us get £20m from liverpool and for him to really come good there whilst arsenal fans cry into their Frosties ….
themightyfin Posted 27 August 2022 Posted 27 August 2022 He was magic today. Still wishing the window comes and goes and hes still here, gets his head down and signs an extension. Maybe just me being hopeful but we are a much better team with Tielemans in there when his head is totally in it. Whatever happens hes been a class act for us and I just hope thats not the last we see of him. 3

I am gutted to think this is his last season and reluctantly ought to be his last week here if we harbour getting anything for him. The only way he stays here is we qualify for Europe this season which looks nigh on impossible right now. 2
wardyfox86 Posted 27 August 2022 Posted 27 August 2022 He won't sign an extension, I'm sure. But I'd rather he stayed and left for free next year. I can deal with that. Too late to replace him efficiently. 1
JamesWelshFox Posted 27 August 2022 Posted 27 August 2022 The biggest reason we are going to lose Youri is that we fluffed Champions League, twice. He knows he is good enough to be playing there and no longer believes we can offer that to him, and he is right at that. We seem to be going backwards under Rodgers now for maybe 12 months. For a guy who is lauded for coaching skills, he seems desperate just to buy the quality rather than develop what he has, and we just do not have that sort of money.
