Celtic trying to get Ben Davies on a season-long loan deal, according to a report in Scotland. He almost went there in January, so seems like it's probably true. Championship clubs including Bournemouth trying to get him aswell.

Guess his loan fee pays for the fee we paid Preston.

If only we had some sort of physio/fitness/muscle expert on here who might know such things.

Asam?

He’s a fucking vegan so he won’t be doing unprofessional shit like drinking or eating a mid week doner kebab like ex pros we’ve had at the club

I give him my blessing even though being a vegan limits his potential

I'm guessing Asam and MD1990 can come up with a pretty clear formula for injury proneness based on how many weights a player has lifted, and how many vegetables they eat. Hopefully some amateur like Welshred doesnt get involved with his 'he walked off so must be fine' nonsense.

Him being a vegan negates all that, wont be putting on much muscle mass eating pea protein and saitan

People seem to have the Gomez thing as their major sticking point with having Sterling back.

My view is that if Joe is fine with it, I'm fine with it. I mean I doubt it'd happen if there was any serious animosity between the two anyway.

Not going to happen of course and I care not either way.

Is there protein in peas?

Please keep the Sterling chat out of this thread. There's one on the main board for him, and we're not signing him.

It's an incomplete protein - amino acids in wheat and grains complement it though I believe.

Aaaanyway - can we stop on the Sterling thing peas pretty peas?

The main problem isn’t the amount of protein it’s how well the body assimilates it, meat is absorbed much better

Alright. I'm splitting the Sterling stuff out of the thread.

No more Sterling-based bickering please.

The LFC aligned writers really have been quiet. Seen nothing on The Athletic.

When was the last time Pearce or someone even came out and said we weren't signing someone. Feels like they don't even get the chance to do that

Someone in here mentioned a Liverpool related journalist who said something like that, in that they find it extremely difficult to get anything from the club until the club decides to tell them. Can't remember who it was but it exactly what I wanted to hear.

Liverpool's offer is close to satisfying what Gil Marín asks for Saúl. At the moment there are 40 million + variables, they ask for 50 without bonus. Trading continues at this time.

Neil Jones did kinda sorta comment on Saul on the redmen yesterday. Didn't say he knew owt though.

Digging into the replies and they seem resigned to Saul being ushered to the exit door it looks like. I've enjoyed it so much I might keep digging!

Saul a bit suspicious to me. Nothing from the English side, just Atletico drumming up interest.

Anyone know why he isn't in the Spain squad?

Chatter is ramping up on our Saul interest. If we do spend £35m on a CM then he will be expected to be fighting for a starting berth immediately. Not looking good for one of Keita and Ox, don't see how we keep them both and sign another player.

I mean this is complete rubbish isn't it? There are many, many vegans in the world and quite a lot of vegan sports people who do just fine, it doesn't limit potential whatsoever.

Tell where I have said this? I only mentioned Saul had become vegan & suffered a dip in form. Not that every vegan athlete is liminating themselves.

Just that some people can react badly to the vegan diet. Just like any other diet.

The example you mentioned of bodybuilders wasnt really the best example considering majority are doping.

I try to usually not get invested but in transfers, but if the interest in Saul is legit and we don't get him now I'll be gutted

An absolute dream midfielder on his day for me. Seemingly with Atletico he's not been off the back of his greatest ever run of form, but undoubtedly he's a top class midfielder.

Nice to see Harvey Elliot get a new deal, too

Hope we get him the move he wants. Slightly sidetracked his career already, be really shitty if we go full chelsea and try to treat him solely as a commodity.

Imagine the strategy is we're loaning him to Celtic in the hopes he excels, then selling him to an English club with more money
