Yes, exactly. I think there is no way they accept a Chelsea offer, however big it is and regardless of whether it is the biggest offer on the table, until and unless Liverpool withdraw their bid.
Not only am I sure that TB and PB are honourable, straight-talking businessmen who keep to their...
Thats not going to go down well with Liverpool fans even if he does end up going there. Burning bridges early isn't a good look, this deal could die as quickly as it came to life.
Umm I think it is basically proven that money does get you points and wins. However generating that money from other sources than player sales would be a boon.

Which just goes to show that all the underhand agent stuff and leaking to the press and not turning up for training works an absolute treat if a player wants to move; much easier than actually making an improved offer. Getting the fans against you makes it easier for the board to accept the...
