I have no idea what I am doing on Lemmy but I'm just loving the vibes.

When you weigh up his reasons for leaving (i.e.,money, reduced playing time?) against all the potential draw backs (i.e., lgbt issues, league with less quality, not picked for euros, leaving role as captain of one of worlds biggest teams, team he’s going to will not be competitive?), it seems like a horrible decision. I guess money talks and that’s the point of the article 🤷‍♂️

We’re going to end up paying the 50 one way or another. The only thing is that’s this back and forth is pushing back the timeline for Lavia to be integrated into the squad.

Jeeeeeez 10mil is way too low. Especially considering he is a) our captain, and b) being offer 700k wages.

I’ll let you know when I work it out!

Wow, that is a little surprising. You'd think big deals like this are finalised well ahead of time.

I’m really interested to see how journos going out on their own like this will work in the future. I’ve seen David Lynch pop up on Redmen TV quite a bit, and it’s great to have this kind of access directly to the journalist.

So many instances of these are popping up in the aftermath. Even an opportunistic Bairstow stumping.

I didn’t realise that both of them wouldn’t be ready in time!

You're doing gods work @whoopThereItIs@lemmy.world

I think it was Mo. Pretty sure you can hear them saying that he ran either further or at a faster speed, despite being in a different group to Dom.

Accessing these full articles is another benefit of Lemmy!

I really can’t see his one happening but maybe that’s because I don’t want it to.

As pointed out by Robbo, Hendo is looking like an absolute beast. I can’t see him leaving the club this season.

I hope so. I worry that the protests and outrage would quickly pass and reddit would rumble on without too much change.

Reddy also mentioned:

"Lavia and Gravenberch have long been considered by LFC (regardless of current situation), with their reps spoken to. Other players they've looked at: Nicolo Barella, Khephren Thuram, Florentino Luis, Joao Palhinha, Teun Koopmeiners...

They do love a surprise, stealth signing"

Hopefully this means the wheels are turning and we are about to see something!

I wonder if the Saudi money will be there for years to come or if this is just one season of a huge cash injection. I remember when people were going to china for huge wages - which has since dried up a fair bit.

He was such a central part of the success. The final piece of the puzzle after the Kiev champions league defeat.

I thought we were over this type of negotiating! The longer we delay this transfer the longer into the season before Lavia is settled. Surely the Hendo/Fab transfers can cover what’s required here.

I wonder he much his pro LGBTQI stance would influence things.
