Really surprised he looked a cert for Villa. Honestly after are first few games I really felt we were going down this year. Still think it's going to be tough, something seems off with the club.

Villa look **** this year so maybe that helped his decision.
I reckon you should be alright. Bowen and Paqueta will keep you up, just.

In the end Liverpool got Isak but not Guehi. Can always go back for him in January at lower price or free next summer. Happy with the signings and didn’t let go of Gomez. Interesting to see if new kid Leoni will be given a chance.

I would've been surprised had Guehi gone. Not only because I suspected Glasner would block it but more that it made no sense for Guehi to push the move at all. ****, if I was him I would've told Liverpool they'll have to wait until the summer
It's a WC year so why go to Liverpool when you can play week in week out for Palace and put your hand up for England and on top of that Konate will be off next summer so can walk into the team then and, most importantly, he can get millions and millions from Liverpool as a signing on fee. I would be staying at Palace and wouldn’t even consider a move. He might even have your Madrids and what not coming in for him in the summer in which case you can drive the signing on fee up even more.

Guehi will have his pick for sure but if his heart is set on Liverpool and Konaté ends up at Madrid that works as well.
Yeh the transfer window is closed. Nothing more can be done now. Onto the internationals before returning to PL and CL afterwards.

Yeah, English players don’t tend to like going abroad so in his mind it could just be Liverpool as only option. I wonder what the signing on fee will be? £15mil plus would be my guess. Could be over £20m. Not bad for signing a piece of paper.

If Liverpool **** this league season up with the ridiculous amount of money they’ve spent I will never forgive them.

Good luck to Konaté if he does choose to move to Madrid next summer especially the racist abuse he will suffer. Just ask Vinicius Jnr.

To be fair, I don’t think Liverpool fans are in any position to claim the moral high ground in this regard.

Out of interest @Bada-Bing! were you appalled by the reaction of the fans, the players and LFC as a whole when Suarez got banned for saying those racist remarks towards Evra? I remember thinking at the time that it was wild and never seen anything like it. A dark stain on Liverpool FC that. How badly they got that wrong. And that's before you even get into the usual racist fans who say stuff to black players when they lose a game.

Yeh he was an animal. Great goal scorer though. Best since Rush but can’t condone his racist antics or habit of biting opponents
La Liga is much worse for racist abuse. It’s normalised like it is in Italy to chant monkey chants at black players.

Yeah, Italy and Spain are next level. Just seems more accepted over there, you’re right.
Every club over here has their own set of idiot fans, though. Some more than others, however. *cough Chelsea and West Ham cough*
I'll accept some of us Irons fans think they are extras in Green St or the Football Factory.
It's like a crowd of Danny Dyers at times. **** me one is enough.

To quote Kevin Bridges
“Danny Dyer, now he’s the pricks prick.”
To be fair I actually don’t mind Danny in small doses.

Chelsea are the worst though. Back in the days when I used to go to WHL it was only the Chelsea fans who would do the hissing sound to imitate the gas chamber sound. West Ham fans normally sang the “he's coming for you, he's coming for you, Adolf Hitler he's coming for you" but I never heard them do the gas chamber thing.

This is an iconic image from 1988 Merseyside derby.
Racism still exists in football in the UK because as John Barnes once said: it will always exist in some form in our society.

Great player, just don’t ask him to rap.
