What great news to start the weekend and the new season

Smokescreen to drive the price up, surely? Have it on good authority from Welsh Wizard that he will be sold for 135M. That's why FSG were in Barcelona a while back.

Exactly and Welshies source has a 100% record so far.

100% wrong I suppose you mean

And that's exactly what Ayre said about Suarez.... and guess what

Great news. It's good to see our owners backing the manager. Now go and
Buy 2 or 3 world class players.

So what should the club have done then, say nothing?

This is the owners though not Ian Ayre. It should hold a load more stock just for that alone and if they now go back on that they'd look even worse (if possible) to the fans.

It's what people have said they should do and they've done it so it should be the end of the matter but we'll see.

Well taken on face value it's great news...but...we've been here before, so we shall see. Perhaps they've learned from the Suarez debacle, or perhaps it was Klopp's influence, or perhaps it was fan pressure, or perhaps it's just street traders jawing, so we shall see...perhaps...
