Would you care to explain how a few rumours could influence negotiations for more money.
Trent is 25, coming into his peak years as a player and probably as a wage earner.i assume his next contract will probably be about 5 years to take him to the age of 30.
I think he has always wanted to spend his career at Liverpool, captain the team and rack up 100s of appearances.
We've recently got Edwards back and a new DOF. Their main priority will be the new manager obviously but renewing the contract of Trent VVD and Mo will be high on the list.
I'm a big fan of Trent, always been supportive and never had a meltdown when we have conceded a goal allegedly due to his defensive weaknesses. I'm quite happy for him to try to get himself a decent wage in the negotiations which are probably happening already. He'll be in the last year of his contract soon and plenty of fans will be getting very anxious about it; like the Mo saga a couple of years ago.
My original comment only said
maybe he started the rumours himself and I was not being entirely serious. He's going to get a lot of money, maybe 150-200k per week. If the club thinks there is a possibility that he will leave they might pay a bit more. Running down the contract helps his negotiations, a few rumours linking him to Madrid is probably helpful as well
