Ed01, do you remember the transfer window when we had Brendan Rodgers in charge and there was talk of us signing Konoplyanka? The site was going crazy until midnight when our dreams of a new signing got shattered. Can you believe how far we’ve come since then…
Can’t wait for Wirtz and Kerkez. Have a good one mate.
{Ed001's Note - ah yes we made a mess of thar one anyway. The club chairman was a bit of an arse to be fair but still, we did mess it up. So nice to be signing top quality these days.}

From what I read felt a bit sorry as the chairman basically knowing last few hours of window tried to up the agreed price - basically torpedoing his move.
Can’t judge how would have worked out if he joined, but did win a cup with Sevilla.

Feels like a lifetime away from that period now, those were bonkers days!

also goes to show how we can get a bit giddy over players who don't turn out to match up the level of stress we exhibit for not signing them lol.
