European ban for AC?

Predrag Mijatović, an intermediary for Lovren's agent, was filmed at AC Milan hq, supposedly arranging a transfer.

****ing hell, Milan

Two stories like this about Mignolet and now Lovren.

Doesn't really tell us anything new, because no one's made offers for them. Of course, Klopp would rather not sell them, but a tempting offer may swing things the other way.

[Zapater]

Pretty sure it's a stance we're taking to communicate that we're not going to let them go cheap. If there are decent bids, I'm sure they'll go. So hard to determine players value in the current market. Some decent players are still going in the 10-15m range whereas some diabolical players are fetching well over 20m.

£20m it is then

[Cormack74]

Even £15m would be decent for someone of his age (30 yesterday) who's only going to get game time with us in the event of an injury.

£15m rarely gets you anything these days, I know he gets alot of stick but he's as good a 4th choice CB as you will get. It'll probably cost us that to get a replacement who really is a 4th choice CB. Unless Lovren is desperate to leave I don't see the point as we won't get a better player and it's not like we need the money.

[Norbs]

Hard to disagree with either of you to be fair. I think £25m gives us scope to find a replacement but will it actually buy someone who improves us as our 4th choice? Probably not

[Chris]

Looks like we are selling him for 15m. Absolutely bizarre.

[Shaggy]

Yep. I don't get it at all.

I dont see the point in keeping a player that knows he is 4th choice when he could easily be 1st choice in 95% of other teams in top leagues. Especially when the 3 ahead of him at Liverpool are of a different level ability wise.

He seems good for squad morale, but if a player is not happy about playing. There is only so long you can keep him from rocking the boat, intentionally or not.

Its good to have depth, but it might be better to bring up a younger player to be around VVD, Gomez and Matip day to day and learn from them?

Man City currently only have 3 recognised centre backs. Although I know Guardiola is a it of a pervert for a fullback.

The triumvirate of Migs, Moreno and Lovren leaving only Fools (doh, fills) me with relief. I prefer seeing a youngster like Hoever or Berg as fourth choice knowing that Fabinho can cover if they blow it too often.
