Bayern want Saul to replace Thiago.. Liverpool taking on big wages 240 grand a week minimum, it's a lot given his injury record

Agreed regarding the injuries. Thiago really is an exceptional player though. Slightly underrated even, but his playmaking from deep midfield is as good as it gets.

I'd hold steady.

Looking good in Ligue 1 is one thing.
Coming to the PL where it's more frantic and more physical, we'll see if he can transfer that.

People were saying Pepe would storm the league, yet he really struggled with the pace and intensity of it.

Yeah, and Arsenal are looking for their money back?

His passing is aesthetically pleasing.

He's excellent.. Be interesting to see how Liverpool use him, they have Fabinho at base of midfield with 2 shuttlers either side & Thiago is not really suited to that role so they'll have to change it..

There’s allegedly some sort of clause that enables him to leave for free, no idea on the stipulations. Doesn’t seem like any of the Italian league could afford the wages though, as you say - especially with Juve looking like they have to offload people.

yeah since he turned 30 Barca have said that if he wants to leave he can go for nothing

If we had 7 defenders and they were all shit all we would hear is we need to sell first but noone wanted what Levy asked
In fairness I'd way rather be in the financial and club running situation we're in than the absolute shitshow Arsenal is and is further sliding into.

We wouldn't have seven senior CBs in the first place. Right backs on the other hand...
