Bobby Clarke gone to RBL. Thought he looked quite promising.
14 Aug 2024 20:03:47
I thought he looked neat and tidy without ever looking outstanding. I'm fine with selling him so long as there is some sort of buy back option involved.
14 Aug 2024 20:16:41
Salzburg, not Leipzig.
14 Aug 2024 20:17:18
17.5 sell on and first option.
14 Aug 2024 20:23:26
Bigh, I think you are getting your Leipzigs and your Salzburgs mixed up. Apart from that, great post!
14 Aug 2024 20:31:15
I really liked him but as Thunderbird says he lacked an outstanding qualities and was a bit of a jack of all trades. Not as tricky as Elliott, not as graceful as Nyoni and not as tenacious as Bajcetic. Good deal for all parties I think.
14 Aug 2024 20:32:46
Yes there is. But we aren’t buying anyone back. Next up Taylor Morton.
14 Aug 2024 20:37:09
Agreed, decent player but not ready for Liverpool atm., wouldn’t have got the much needed game time.
14 Aug 2024 20:38:42
He definitely looked to have all the tools to be a good PL level. player. it's always SAS to see a young talent leave. UT we have negotiated a good fee, a decent sell on clause, and a first refusal clause, all of which combine to make it a very good deal really. I hope he succeeds and becomes a cracking player. All the best to him!
14 Aug 2024 20:39:53
Can I just ask one thing? Who has decided to sell him on, because isn't he still injured, so Slot wouldn't have seen him kick a ball for us before he's sold.
14 Aug 2024 20:47:20
He was a steady player, could imagine has the ability to earn a trade in a lesser Prem team. Good deal for player and the club, wish him all the best.
14 Aug 2024 20:51:12
Soon as I clicked rbl I realised the mistake so had to do another post. Ed's probably getting sick of me ?.
14 Aug 2024 21:04:25
I actually don't like this one. Thought he looked a real talent. Telling that it's pep who's bought him and knows him best. Would have prefered we loaned him to them to see what a full season would have made of him. feels like were really trying to make some striaght profit before we lose players for free next summer.
14 Aug 2024 21:37:06
Maybe he wanted to go for regular first team football?
14 Aug 2024 21:14:28
Good money for someone who was never really going to play for us. Not fussed. I’d say good business.
14 Aug 2024 21:31:04
I remember people being similarly annoyed when we sold Ibe, Hoever, Brewster. Turned out the club knew what they were doing. Sometimes it's best to sell while the name's still hot before they reveal themselves to be a Woodburn or an Ojo.

RBS are in the Austrian league.
He isn’t joining RBL who are a relatively high flying bundesliga side.
I think this reflects where he’s at. And we apparently have a first option if he moves on which keeps the door ajar for him in case he really kicks on.
Not bad business (relatively speaking with everything else (not! ) going on at Liverpool)
14 Aug 2024 21:45:39
Good luck to him. Jumped a sinking ship.
(Joke btw) ?.
14 Aug 2024 21:46:56
Interesting narrative that because Pep is buying him for RBS he must be good.
Whereas until he left Liverpool, Pep was an incompetent idiot (to many on here) who was majorly at fault for all of our bad tactics.
Couldn’t make it up!
14 Aug 2024 22:04:14
Not sure spotting and knowing talent and setting up a team tactically are the same thing whatever the narrative was navy.
14 Aug 2024 22:10:11
Navy only one person mentioned about pep buying him, hardly a narrative mate
Agree with most, didn’t look anything special to me and if we have better youngsters let him go with refusal to buy back.
14 Aug 2024 22:41:26
Could be the most profitable window ever - yay! #Winning.
15 Aug 2024 06:42:39
Oli slating Peps tactics (because he’s a sheep) and Red will is mentioning Pep buying him aren’t really related.
15 Aug 2024 07:25:40
All the best to the lad. Talented player but realistically it was always going to be hard for him to get gametime here. Seems there’s quite a clearout of players who may not have a future here, something we have not been ruthless enough to do over the past few years.
15 Aug 2024 08:19:21
@Brummy, how many people do you need for a narrative? I would have thought it was one.
15 Aug 2024 09:44:51
Just a narrator, WDW, surely? Exits stage left followed by a bear ….

Saw something about £50m coming in this summer with sales of players and (Solanke) sell on. If you add that to the £160m we didn’t spend on Caicedo and Lavia last season and the £50m we didn’t spend on Zubimendi we should now have £260m in the plastic bags in Hughes’s office.
