Seems like Greizman and Mannure seems unlikely to happen. I think he could have been a big hit there. Hope it doesn't happen.

Yeah the Griezemann deal has fallen through because Atletico still have 6 months of a transfer ban to serve. They could sell Griezemann to United but they wouldn't be able to bring in a replacement. Apparently United have said that they will try again in January.
According to reports we have bid £28m for Salah not £43m, that is a bit more like it. I'd still prefer Mahrez but at least at that price we wouldn't be getting the p[iss] taken out of us.

Id go flat out for Mahrez yakka ..and take Vardy into the bargain  lightning quick on the break

According to Sky Sports Roma have knocked back our £28m bid for Salah, they want £40m for him 
Hopefully we walk away but the Echo are saying that we are going back with an improved offer.
In other news rumours persist that if we can't get Keita from RB then we could go for Oxlade Chamberlain instead, apparently we see him as a central midfielder.

I'm getting that underwhelmed feeling again I have to admit.

Vardy would fit into Klopp's ethos like a glove. A dislikable guy by all means but he has all the qualities to be a success here.

Mahrez and Keita would be 2 brilliant signings mate. Something like this would be really exciting. We don't really do exciting though 


                                         Mingolet

        Clyne.              Matip.           NEW CB.               NEW LB

                             Hendo.             KEITA

                                       Coutinho

                  Mane.                                   MAHREZ

                                        Firmino

It's just his age though, he'll turn 31 mid way through next season, if he was available on a free then yeah maybe but can you honestly see FSG spending reasonable money on someone that age?

Of course Salah would get into our starting 11. Klopp has said we’re likely to see more of Coutinho in the middle which would leave Mane and Salah to play in the wide areas, with them both being able to play on either side. We would be deadly on the counter. But who drops out for Keita when everyone is fit and on form?

Salah and Mane 'The Blaze Bros'

Something we can agree on  the prospect of Mane and Salah on the counter attack is frightening, both tricky, can score a goal and lightning quick!

Both of them are two footed as well. They would be a real handful for defences.

But we have to sort out the full back situation. Currently Clyne and Milner just don't provide the quality in the wide areas in the final third to stretch teams. Milner cuts in and Clyne just hasn't got the quality so defences just defend the width of the box. Bit worrying that we only seem to be linked with left backs that wouldn't necessarily replace Milner immediately.

That midfield is too soft in my opinion.

We seem to be messing about over Salah fee with wages agreed, its just so us though, we did this with him before, literally months of negotiation and Chelsea got it done in 24 hours 

If we lose any more targets penny pinching I think FSG will be under a lot of pressure.

So many diverse opinions between fans are what makes football such a glorious game, imagine how tedious the atmosphere in pubs would be if we all agreed 

Saints want 70 million for Van Dick  I'd just see who's prepared to pay such a ridiculous fee for the big yard dog and then gazump Southampton for the replacement they no doubt already have in mind, it would save a great deal of time bidding next year
