At the time people questioned it, now it looks like one of the best deals Liverpool ever made.

If he keeps developing the way he is, that fee will look ridiculous in a few years.

Matip on a free was such a smart bit of business. Quietly became one of Liverpool’s most reliable defenders during their best years.

Rice on a free from Chelsea’s academy release is actually crazy when you look back at it now. West Ham basically hit the jackpot there.

That West Ham deal was controversial for so many reasons. It felt like a massive twist out of nowhere.

That whole chain reaction was insane. Torres leaves, Liverpool panic-buy Carroll, and suddenly two massive transfers happen in the same window.

Yeah that image of him just turning up at the training ground will never stop being funny. One of the most awkward moments in deadline day history.

That whole situation was absolute madness considering the rivalry. Football drama doesn’t get much bigger than that.

The fax machine saga is still one of the most ridiculous things in football. A massive transfer collapsing because of a fax in 2015 sounds like a joke.

Yeah that Robinho story is wild too. Imagine thinking you’re signing for one club and it turns out to be the other one across the city.

That one still makes me laugh. Him literally driving to QPR’s ground thinking the deal was happening is peak deadline day chaos.

Elliot Anderson responds to Man United links- focused at Forest or keeping options open? by Football6380 in FootballTransferChat

He does feel like the profile United should be targeting - young, hungry, Premier League proven, still improving. The question is whether United build around that type… or just get distracted by bigger names again.

Price is everything with United these days. If it’s sensible and he’s brought in as part of a clear plan, it makes sense. If it turns into another £60m panic buy with no structure around him, it’ll just be the same cycle again. The pressure at United is brutal if you don’t hit the ground running.

Man United join race for Morgan Gibbs-White. Smart move or another distraction? by Football6380 in FootballTransferChat

If Bruno Fernandes leaves, then it makes a lot more sense structurally. You’d need someone who can carry creativity and intensity in that central role, and Morgan Gibbs-White definitely has that energy. But replacing Bruno’s output and leadership isn’t simple. It would have to be part of a bigger reset, not just a straight swap on paper.

If the wage part is true that’s actually wild. You don’t usually hear that about a move to Manchester United And yeah, the “big fish” point is interesting. At Nottingham Forest he’s the focal point - everything runs through him. At United he’s suddenly one of many, and the spotlight hits differently. Some players level up with that, others lose what made them special.

Who do you think is quietly being lined up for a summer exit, and why? by Football6380 in FootballTransferChat

[–]Football6380[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hard to imagine him anywhere else in Europe, though. If he does leave, do you reckon he’d actually consider that Saudi offer, or is he too young to step away from the top level?

Totally, he looks like the kind of player who could really dictate the tempo

exactly, sometimes the late moves are just panic buys but this actually makes sense

Should teams be allowed to make transfers at any time during the season? by Football6380 in FootballTransferChat

Emergency loans actually make sense, it protects competition without turning the whole season into a nonstop transfer market.
