      Ā£85m for Mount? Give me Szoboszlai or Kudus.

      Apparently United put a Ā£55 million bid in according to sky sports.

      Absolutely no chance they get that for someone in last year of contract and who is hardly ripping it up . Be 50 m max

      Kounde wants to leave Barcelona he can play both CB, RB. He would be a perfect signing for us, a player that can rotate between fullback and CB giving Trent the freedom to do what he wants.
      He's nothing special....Pass

      2 or 3 other clubs put bids in it could get to Ā£80.

      Ugarte is more proven and has international games in his belt, he is exactly what we need. Lavia is not signing that goes straight to our starting 11 and Ā£40 million is too much for a kid.

      Who says we need someone to ā€œgo straight into the 11ā€

      Lavia is the exact sort of signing that Klopp would like, 19 , just got into the international side , played 28 premier league games this season

      It gate has only played 8 international games - he isnā€™t the season proven player you are suggesting

      Laimer is going to Bayern. Rab may be a solid move on the free. Would play immediately. Kamada is another interesting free transfer.

      New names I've seen thrown around, per the internet our scouts went to Leipzig to see Szoboszali. Wierd, as he's a attacking mid. Also been seeing things about Neves. Neves can give you most of what Thiago can give you and he's dependable. Bit slow though.

      Szoboszlai suits the profile though.
      Attacking mid that can play left or right wing.
      Salah won't be around forever.

      If the club are looking for an alternative to Mount then Szoboszlai is a great option.
      Good luck spelling his name though. "Bosz la" it is.
      Young enough to be around for the next Klopp era.

      I thought around 40 million, crazy money if it is 80 but highly unlikely

      Every young player in the world with potential seems to be 40 million or thereabouts.
      80 million for a lad in the last year of his contract is crazy.

      I read an article where he called Klopp the best coach in the world a d wanted to play for him a few years ago. I could this one being a thing. From what I've read he sounds good. My Munich buddy says he's a good player and very creative. Doesn't need much space to get shots off.

      We need players good enough for the squad to improve the squad to be part of the squad to give options depending on the opposition. Itā€™s not just about ā€œa 1st 11ā€ that gets played week in week out.

      We have plenty of squad players as you put it and yes we need a banging 11 to compete simple as  bit like Christmas really stocking fillers are great but itā€™s the main ones that tick all the boxes , if you donā€™t think we need class to go into that team then Iā€™m not sure youā€™ve been watching closely enough .

      With the new football director coming in from Germany, I forsee us looking into and brining in a bunch of players from the Bundesliga.

      Van De Ven from Wolfsburg is getting some traction

      🤦ā€ā™‚ļø you do understand what players to improve the squad means and that players like MacAllister improve the squad


      Klopp has for years moved around his midfield depending on opposition, he wants options in there and this season we were missing the options


      So the club will be longer to bring in players to fill the gaps in the squad

      Itā€™s a squad game now - not been a ā€œfirst 11ā€ game for years

      Mount prefers to move to United next target please. I don't rate him anyway, it's not like I'm gonna be angry over losing him.
