Premiere League [EPL] Transfer & Speculation Discussion Thread

[jakdanyel]

Manchester City has done the right thing by selling Reijnders to Al Qadsiah. He was a total mess in the PL. Don't be deceived by his goal contributions. He started the season well but his consistency was too bad.

I’m worried that Liverpool’s desire to sign Barcola may be difficult to realize, given that PSG isn’t willing to lower its asking price. Not to mention, if it’s true that Gakpo wants to leave, then Liverpool will find itself in a difficult situation next season, which will affect their performance, especially since they’ve already lost Mo Salah.

I think Salah's departure is good for both sides. Because his last season performance wasn't even near the 24/25 season one... He had personal issues with Slot too maybe but I don't think it was only due to that.

However Liverpool just needs to find someone to fill his place. Barcola might be a good choice for that but they had better accelerate the process as there is a short time left for the season to begin.

Cody Gakpo has always being a good addition to the team, so it would be a really big loss to Liverpool at this moment. Liverpool would have to complete signing Bradley Barcola or any other striker before releasing Gakpo, it would be a better option to sell off Isak over Gakpo at this point, he has not being the best at Liverpool after leaving Newcastle.

Liverpool are not where they need to be with the squad right now, and that would be a problem when the league starts, when they don't get the necessary replacement needed to strengthen the team.

Gakpo is moving to Tottenham in order to strengthen the team. I believe he will be among their first eleven over there. Liverpool will definitely miss him because he started playing for them at a very young age. Liverpool needs to sign more players before it's too late.

Liverpool still hasn't finished the signing of Bradley Barcola and now it's said Gakpo could also leave.

That’s exactly why Liverpool really shouldn’t let Gakpo go, since his performance hasn’t been disappointing. And I agree with your opinion that it would be better for Liverpool to sell Isak instead, because his performance has been terrible and, on top of that, he’s frequently injured. Liverpool must sign a replacement for Mohamed Salah as soon as possible because they don’t have much time left. Also, just forget about Barcola if PSG isn’t willing to lower his price, since the league is about to start and any new player they bring in will need time to adapt to the system the coach has established.

If a team wants to improve their squad they should focus on signing a replacement first before making any sales else it will affect the team. Let's take Chelsea as an example, they are good with their business and they always make sure to sign players first before selling any of their players. Gakpo is really not performing badly and I also don't support their sale if a proven replacement is not available. Their focus should be on getting Salah's replacement and maybe signing Gakpo replacement too if Barcola is not reachable. Although I don't support selling Isak even though he hasn't done enough he's still an asset and the fact that they spent so much on him is a reason they can't sell him yet.

You make a solid point. The quality and versatility that Gakpo still offers makes him worth keeping, but on the other hand, selling an underperforming and injury prone player is the most logical step to take. Another thing is that, Liverpool should also act quickly in finding a good replacement for Mo. Sallah, because the earlier they bring in a replacement, the quicker they can adapt

Manchester city has accepted Barcelona deal for Rodri, he's now officially a Barcelona player. Seems buddy wants to go home and he just got the best ticket. I expected this move actually, he's in top form now and would surely be a good addition for Barca. On the other hand, this is a big loss for Manchester city and with their performance today, they haven't really found his replacement.
