Am with you phil, it's like having a mod who is a carreer criminal:rofl:. None of us is whiter than white.

Mate, we all know he has a point, nobody has denied it, and if Utd get embarrassed you will laugh at them, it's called banter and local rivalry.

But when I'm answering someone directly and he joins the conversation on one side takes the morale high ground and has a sly dig at Everton, does he honestly not expect a response, it's playground behaviour.

Why should they publish what went on ? What's the point ? No one is naive to think we are the only club to approach players without asking the players club - would suspect comfortably that every club does it. The smart trick is getting away it which we haven't - have had to say sorry and it wouldn't surprise me to see VVD still going to Liverpool. I expect the only people to drag it out will be the Everton fans but then you only have to go back a couple of years to see they got caught and in fact were charged and fined.

For clarification on exactly what happened as opposed to speculation.

I honestly couldn't give a damn what other clubs have or have not done, I'm more bothered that we've got clowns in charge of transfers and the managers top 2 targets haven't been landed and are more than likely not to materialise.

We've seen this before though haven't we with our owners?

i do agree with Stu but do you always believe what you read in the papers?.
Something has gone on but we are only speculating.
as I said it's all unnecessary.
Liverpool should bite the bullet and publish what went on but I am not holding my breath.

Everybody believed the press when they thought he was being signed, if it's lies the club could sue them.

Soton still saying they want the PL to investigate, so maybe the truth will come out if they do.

Oh I know what your saying and in all honesty I peed me pants laughing when Liverpool were caught out, especially as he was supposed to be coming to us.. Phils right, every one does do it, but to be so amateurish about it in this day and age. The funny thing is that the closed season Is still very much in its infancy and no doubt Mr Coutinho has had one or two phone calls. Be interesting to see what is said when the ball is on the other foot.

The "We're Off " thread should only be started on the 1st day if the season imo

I don't expect to ever see full clarification on what happened - reports suggest it was down to Klopp speaking to player and discussing tactics for next year.

Seems Chelsea might be the next club

Anyone else watching the football. England are so ponderous. We need some pace.

I know it won't happen but imo it should happen.

Whoever initiated for the talks to happen from LFC need sacking. Gross misconduct in my book.

I've never been a football agent but a player never goes anywhere job related without the agent knowing.

Again I'm not interested in other clubs business, I'm not doubting tapping up happens.

 

[clubchamp98]

What's Klopp done wrong?

He is ALLEGED to have approached the player first but as I said it's all speculation I have NOT seen any evidence.
If he did its poor if he didn't it's paper talk.
Really Southampton should disclose the nature of their complaint that way it might stop in the future but I dought it all clubs do it .

 

[Fish]

Those 2 free kicks are just crazy 😜

 

[Tashyboy]

Looks like there will be no Indy ref two. Poor decision for the second free kick. What a turn around.

How is scott brown still on the park.

 

[Tashyboy]

2-2

 

[ger147]

Same old same old, Scotland never win...

 

[Fish]

Kane breaks their hearts.

And if it's Klopp ?

Not as crazy as putting Craig Gordon in goal. Such a pony keeper it's untrue.

 

[Fish]

But was Klopp told the door was open, after all, if what I've read is true, a lot of dialogue has taken place between the player and Klopp for him to send videos to him regarding future tactics!

Communication from within Liverpool is a shambles if this all took place with no official acceptance to talk to the player being given.

This isn't tapping up per se, thus is a breakdown in internal communication.

 

[Tashyboy]

Replace him him with Arsene?😁👍

Dunno what's less of a surprise, Lpool messing up another transfer or you lot still harping on over it 💤
