TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 He's not going to turn into a good player in any system man. I think we'll get closer to £20m. The 30+ was us hoping for a bidding war which hasn't happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12459 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Unless a top side wants to basically play with a man down 95% of the time he plays he won't fit in anywhere. Lazy fucking sod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 He'll be gone by the end of the transfer window. The last few days go mental so expect some club to panic buy massively and sign him for 25 million +. Probably Palace or Everton giving they've just got rid of Stones for stupid money.

David Kelly 1117 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 That would be the ideal scenario for me. A shit team being the only one who will pay for him. We get the money we want and he goes and plays once or twice a season for a team he thinks he's better than. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 4964 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I honestly don't care where he ends up as long as we get decent money for him. That said, I reckon if decent money was likely, it would have been offered by now. I reckon we're looking at something close to £20m as he becomes desperate and agitates more for a move.

Really hope this happens, imagine Everton blowing the 50m on Kone and Sissoko man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 A lot of big fees end up being spent at the end of the transfer window (look at Caroll) so I don't think it necessarily follows that it would have happened by now. Also, quite often a big deal kicks off other ones. Obviously Pogba is the biggest deal and then also Stones is (ridiculously) massive so I can see other big deals following on from those. They might not directly effect Sissoko with him going to Juve but the cash moving about could end up with someone who wants him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 "According to our sources, Liverpool and Dortmund have made offers for Moussa Sissoko. Rafa Benitez [wants] a €40m transfer fee". This morning, Thompson enthused: "I'd love to see [sissoko] in a Liverpool shirt soon. He was fantastic in the Euros. He's athletic, makes tackles, and is very pacey. I'd play him and Can holding/breaking up play". Phil "Thommo" Thompson. Football expert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dickie 0 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Fuckin hell, he never makes tackles. For me he's a similar player to what Jonas was - his best attribute is that he can relieve pressure on the defence by picking the ball up and running 50-60 yards to gain some ground and put the opposition on the back foot, even if just momentarily. He hasn't done that anywhere near a regular as Jonas did in the 2-3 years that he was a useful player for us (2008-2011?), principally because he hasn't shown the same willingness to track back and muck in with the full back. Neither of them had much quality on their end product but, without knowing the stats, my feeling would be that Sissoko has more assists and goals than Jonas. Neither could pass a ball, neither could shoot, but Jonas' big plus was that he'd almost always win a free-kick at the end of one of his 50 yards runs, whereas Sissoko more often than not just surrendered possession, especially in the last 2 seasons before Rafa came in. If we can get 20 mil it would be great business (assuming the money gets reinvested). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 He's been here about 3-4 years and he hasn't excelled in one position since he's been here after playing about 5 different positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
