This will proof to be a good signing for them, I'm certain of that. Bit gutted he isn't ours.

Somewhere they're doing a moneyball. Perhaps they pay shed loads to agents when many try and pay as little as possible, I've always thought that would be a good strategy

£19M price tag, yes, we might have gone for that - but ex-Chelsea, ex-Liverpool - I imagine wages would be way, way above our maximum (and I think we've got one or two on 'top earner' deals, haven't we?)

I agree, think it is more about wages than the fee as we paid £14 million & £16 million on players who had scored less goals than him in PL. Personally and have said it a few times maybe we need to promote some of our own talent and get Connollly in.
£16m, less 2 years’ wages at £50k a week or so. That’s £5m of your profit gone!
True. But doesn't include add-ons and possible sell-on.

.....and the rest! Still a tidy profit though.

This. Good potential but will he even make the bench there? Maybe they'll loan him out to palarse for £250K a week.

Cannot complain at the price, seems the Reds have some decent add ons as well.
IMO £19m in today’s money for a player with his pedigree isn’t that far off. Give him 18 months and then we will all know if it’s a punt or not. Clyne was also a clever move.
What does this mean for the Reds? Probably Kelly from Bristol city as back up full back and Timo Werner from Leipzig, good business ....... if it happens.

8 goals from 46 senior games and 1 in 21 in the PL makes it a big gamble for a PL team as far as I can see. A Championship side paying < £10m I could understand as a good gamble but this seems a big risk and I am surprised we were interested. A Bloom signing is normally 25-26 or someone who has had at least one good season in a senior team if younger (Bissouma).

Mike Dean could confuse the two.
It’s the going rate in this crazy market, but Bmuff may have overpaid as they did with Ibe (£15m).

That is eye-watering money for a player with no track record in the Premier League. I’d be a little concerned that he could only score one goal for that Liverpool side.
