Then sack mourinho or what do you reckon ? Because there's no happy medium in my opinion

Agreement with the players through their representatives? Is that still tapping up?
Barcelona strongly linked to signing Dembele from Dortmund with all those Neymar €'s.
I'd post in that thread, but it's locked.
If this lad was available though, we'd be insane not to not try. He looks like the next €200m+ player in a year or two.

What you talking about? Every club including us do it. You just need to talk to the agent.
What's amazing is that we have professional scouts working for us for a number of years who didn't spot Dembele's world class potential to the point of recommending him to purchase for a very reasonable price. Infact, I recall a large number of people on here state that he looked like an extraordinary talent. We really should be beating Dortmund for guys like this, instead of letting them become so valuable that we're competing (or not) one year down the line for big money.
According to this site, Ronnies release clause is 1 Billion.
Go on Woody, make it so!

the point is he's better than what we have? or are we only buying players because they offer something new?
that seems to also be the reasoning people use to justify fellaini's existence on this planet despite whatever it is that he offers being wildly erratic and inconsistent
CR7 release clause is indeed €1Billion
Is Barca really gonna make the scousers cry?

My god I think I hate Barcelona more than Madrid now...complete fecking hypocrites.
Hes had a good season in an OK league people seem to forget that, Micki was tearing it up in a much better league and struggled here. I don´t get this over rating players after 1 good season in an average league.
He personally refused every club and chose to sign for Dortmund. There's nothing any club can do in that situation. He made the right choice on hindsight for his development.
Edit: apparently fake

Rawk will be a great read after this... if they are allowed to discuss it, that is.
Losing their best player without a realistic replacement a week before the season starts.
All this Mbappe, Dembele and Neymar talk is making me depressed I hope we pull off a brilliant singing out of arse.

Bechler saying the news about Coutinho being a done deal, which is attributed to him is fake.
It's just been debunked in the next tweet.
Shit. Think Liverpool won't budge on him anyway. Too late to find a suitable replacement.
Shame there isn't another player like Giggs out there, fast, skilful and a damn hard worker for the team. He was such an underrated player for us.
I feel Coutinho will push for the move. Pretty sure Barca will have tapped him up aswell.
Not a tweet but apparently Mbappe injured his knee in the last game.
End of transfer talk this summer?

Giggs was a legend, a rare breed. Fantastic player, went through a few dips but generally was a key player for us for years.
L'pool to trigger Messi's release clause incoming?...
But it's a valid analysis. Ronaldo loves attention.
Monaco says just a knock on the knee, no tear, so doesn't look that serious.
Nah. I saw the game and he was running around fine after he got the knee banged up. He later took another foul and it looked more like he was withdrawn to protect him. He looked like he wanted to come out, and the team also wanted to get him out. Our take on it is that he will definitely be sold soon.
Does anyone else not really care about 'tapping up'?
Don't get me wrong, when of your own teams players heads get turned, it's frustrating, but I don't really see how or why it is against the rules.
In any other line of work anyone can approach you and see if you'd like to work for them, you could have job interviews and everything.
Ultimately the player has a contract and unless it's winding down (in which case a sale is likely, though not guaranteed) , they'll have no choice but to fall back in line or risk being left out in the cold.
I just don't get the furore around it at all.
Of course the hypocrisy of Barca is hilarious though.

Why do people want us to be like Arsenal and to go after players we have no hope in getting?
I would think it's more due to unsettling of players minds to gain an unfair advantage. I do however think it's going on all the time to a certain extent. Instead of the player, clubs tap up agents or give exclusives to reporters.
Yeah I understand that, but isn't that just life?
If he's professional he'll get on with his job anyway, and as you say he'll know about interest anyway, so the rules don't really solve anything.
