£200k per week isn't massive money?, fucking hell what a world we live in.

£200,000 per week is not massive money, in a league where Sancho earns £350,000 per week ...

[Flaccido Dongingo]

It's still an enormous amount of money, just because someone else gets more doesn't mean it isn't ffs

[PeterTheRed ...]

Liverpool bosses have been impressed with Sepp van den Berg's development while out on loan and he will start preseason with the first team, but is still expected to head out on loan, with interest received from the Premier League, La Liga and Bundesliga. [@LivEchoLFC]

We're not signing a midfielder

It is enormous amount of money for you and me. For a World class player like Thiago, who has actually taken a pay-cut to join us, it is not massive money. Do I really need to explain this?

Not if you're going to be the usual sanctimonious patronising whopper you usually are.

Something tells me that we'll sign Gnabry

MacRed said we aren't, and his word is gospel.

Surely he could be a starter at one of the promoted teams.

That would be good. He sounds like progressing at a rate where he can replace Matip in the squad in a year or 2

Well that’s just a load of nonsense.

[farawayred]

Well that’s just a load of nonsense.

Is it though? You all like to pick on Mac, but what fraction of top six starting XI players are on about £200k per week? You'd find that most are on similar wages. It's closer to the norm than an outlier.

£200k per week is huge money, doesn't matter if someone else is earning double, it's still a massive amount of money.

[Dave McCoy]

We don't sign 28-year-old players on massive wages. Even Thiago, who is genuine World class, has joined us on £200,000 per week ...

How do you consistently get away with this shit? Good god….

Why does anyone read his posts? Just ignore the guy and RAWK improves immediately.
I just wish people would stop replying to his posts as then I could 100% ignore the goon.

And here we go again…

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

Woh this thread.

Think it's easy enough.

When a guy's inaccurate / plenty disagree ,  point it out once and move on. Don't need to be the fourth or fifth poster in line to highlight it,  we're all reading,  can judge for ourselves.

Need to remember the forum isn't moderated to a high level of accuracy nor character, mods aren't paid.  I've got nothing personally against Mac,  but say someone asks you for verification,  a source on something,  and you're flippant you would get removed from a proper set-up.  Same way if someone lowers the level of the environment with their character issues.

An online forum can't fully act  on these things,  so work through that.

Exactly, mate. The same people would discuss re-signing Sterling as a good squad option (£300,000 per week), or the possibility of Jurgen getting the best out of Werner (£250,000 per week), and then argue when someone says that £200,000 per week is no longer massive money in the Premier League ...

[royhendo]

What’s this about mods lacking character surfer? 

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

As in you're not assessing,  banning people on their behaviour long term towards others.  Not your character.

I’ll ask one last time - can you stop building contentious straw man arguments that lead to the kind of pile on you are basically asking for, and that repeatedly derail mostly this thread? You’ve made a point, others have the right to disagree. Same goes for everyone else. It’s a silly wee thread speculating about transfers, not the Old Bailey. Be nice and be respectful or you can go and post some place else.

People tend to not report these things. Capon highlighted a number of people doing this towards Peter, actually. It takes a multiple of eight to have an eightsome reel (or two to tango). That’s not something you can see unless you stalk folk, and it’s hard to do that if there’s other stuff to do that’s more interesting or you get paid for. People never listen and report things though, so the Al and Peter types build up these long term handbag behaviours.

Yeah,  that's what I meant in the original post,  it's a bug of this setting,  compared to the tools you have to manage these things in real life. Posters like Mac and Al have been on the receiving end of it unfairly at times,  as well as starting those problems.

[Zimagic]

Journo for KICKER.

I always wonder about stuff like this. Here in France, getting sidelined in a normal business is something you can sue your employer about. Generally they will end up giving you a little bonus to pay you off sueing them and you'll "mutually agree" to part ways. Football contracts are all fixed time contracts, they are made to end on a specific date, the employee has no obligation to extend or agree to have his contract sold to another club. Announcing that a player is obliged to extend or sit out the season is restriction of business, exactly what Bosman & subsequent rulings were made to avoid.

That football contracts traditionally get extended or sold isn't an obligation for any footballer to actually do this. They are within their rights to see out the normal term of their contract without fear of being sidelined, especially so blatently, by their current club.

Very confusing stuff.

Yeah. And everyone's sound for the most part too - it's weird how that gets distorted. Any road, all fair points you raised and yes, I do lack character. I'm in a meeting at work just now. (Only once have I ever screenshared while doing this. My mate (also a Red) said 'Good luck with the transfer window' at the end of the call and my heart sank.)

I for one admire Roy's character and other qwalitees and hope that one day we can share a lamp together, even though he asked for a sofa.

Roy is working hArd

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

Your character seems alright to me roy, from a distance haha. I meant character as a metric in assessing posters in the original post. Anyway, take-away is, if somebody's pointed out a flaw / disagreement on whatever, no need to be the 3rd, 4th ,5th in line to point it out again, we'll all benefit.

Roy posts 0.8 character per90 posts. 0.1 xW (expected warnings). On the cusp of elite.

[Persephone]

Oh it's on
 

Hendo being a flirt. I'm here for it.

[slaphead]

Oh it's on
 

The next Bromance is happening. Mo wont be happy with that, he wants Lovren back and the contract will be signed. Sort it out PSG

He's threatening to bugger off to the ynwa.tv on a free at the end of his contract.

Absolute bullshit from RAWK, they've got the money, he's one of the best Mods around and a mod of his quality would get the money he wants elsewhere, so why aren't we paying it?

[has gone odd]

For a brief second I thought he gave him a Liverpool branded cap for his birthday ..

Let him grow old(er) on someone else’s watch.

Thanks for the memories Roy. The gardening tips, the Charlie Adam love in, the London 2012 meet ups but it’s time to go.

[PeterTheRed ...]

Faith in Curtis Jones and Harvey Elliott is one reason why Liverpool are willing to wait until next summer before making a big money midfield signing. [@neiljonesgoal]
