    Klopp's net spend since he took over was well in the black before this summer. He'll be at about -£140m after Alisson. They've been stockpiling cash and are burning it now. I expect a few sales before this window closes too. Nothing that'll take a huge dent out of the £140m but we'll see. I think Fekir still happens too.

    You're right but what I'm trying to say not very clearly is I don't think Roma were willing to let LFC negotiate at all because of the Salah deal. I could be way off base, but I recall an article during the CL semis about Roma's valuation of Salah and how it would affect future deals. LFC have been pursuing Alisson for over a year. HIs WC performance had little, if anything, to do with it.

    Also, I think LFC are having to pay a premium due to the Salah deal. Roma definitely feels like they were fleeced on that one and probably rightfully so.

    VVD

    Well, I hope not. I expect Karius to start the first couple of games.

    I'm of the mind personal terms have either been agreed to or are very close. Would you agree? I don't think we'd up our bid to meet their valuation unless we knew the player was ready to make the move to us. Hopefully we announce today. I'm not celebrating until he's actually at Melwood.

    Well, Alaska... it was nice while it lasted.

    Ox will be back in November. I'd rather have Gini than Lallana at this point. I think Gini is the more versatile player and he's 3 years younger.

    The Echo says he'll be on the American tour.

    There are other photos of him with Klopp and some of his new teammates making the rounds on Twitter. He looks about as happy as a person can be.

    If there aren't any Americans charged, we're going to look even more stupid(er). Instead of some evil assholes working with a foreign government to steal an election, a bunch of gullible idiots won the fucking thing.

    I really should've gone to one of these games. I had so much fun in Chicago a few years ago. Too much going on this fall.

    We sold Jordan Ibe for 15m. I like the free kick Shaqiri threat poses.

    That note is dated 7/6/18. Isn't that prior to Pompeo's meeting?

    Be nice to get this over the line. The video is already made.

    Cool. Who else really competed for it last year?

    I thought Migs came out and said he wants to move on already. I think I heard that in early June. I imagine he'll get sorted when the WC is over. Our current midfield options: Hendo, Keita, Fabinho, Milner, Gini, Ox, and Lallana. Then, you have a bunch of young guys: Grujic, Kent, Wilson, Ojo. I imagine a number of those will go out on loan. Ojo is interesting as an attacking option. I think Fekir still seems like a possibility, so there's your attacking mid. I heard this morning the club has allowed Gini to speak to Fenerbahce, so I guess we'll see what happens with that. Wonder if Lallana gets sold between now and the window closing. There are 5 CBs if you include Gomez and 4 FBs. The roster is already pretty stacked. The keeper situation is toxic but we're hamstrung by the availability and cost of some of the bigger targets. We've all seen Allison here recently and I don't think he's worth the money being bandied about.

    Because we didn't compete for a title last year?

    The Guardian is reporting Juventus has finalized the deal for Cristiano Ronaldo.

    Good lord. That's incredible.

    I graduated AIT right before Christmas and we all got like 10 days leave before having to report to our first posts. When I arrived at my unit, there was a story/rumor one of my basic training classmates got married over the break in his Class A uniforms. He promoted himself to master sergeant, gave himself a Combat Infantry Badge, Purple Heart, a Silver Star, and any other medal he could find. Must've looked like a North Korean general by the end of it. He was supposedly court-martialed after hanging his wedding photos in his locker.

    I saw this tweet just now. Fuckin' Adam Bogdan. Pretty remarkable how he's reshaped this roster.

    I doubt he's going to come out and say, "yeah, we're looking for a new keeper. What we have isn't good enough." He's smarter than that.
