The media in UK blows the transfers out of proportion. This is the reason clubs in UK pay so much to sign players.

Keita went from 50m to 70m in a blink of an eye. The UK media ruins everything for the clubs.

You living in which year?

Have you been following the football news recently? All unknown players are quoting at least £30 to £50mil today.

Messi has a new buy out clause Euros 300 mil.

This is football and lots of possession doesn't equate to winning. Every managers knew that and willing to spend money to buy goal scorers.

From the Lukaku saga currently being played out, it looks like Chelsea are in a somewhat similar position.

Just 8 days into the summer transfer window. Still early days.

Do you think Lukaku worth ‎£90mil? Do you know how much Everton paid for him?

When Klopp was manager at Dortmund it was a poor club with debts and they had to sell their stars every season to survive. So Klopp had no choice but to rely on developing their own kids or buy unknown players.

Is James Rodriguez a goal scorer? Worth to buy him @ 66m onot?

No idea because this lad had not played much ever since joining RM. Big risk to buy him although he is still young at 25 years old.

Looks like Klopp wanted Naby Keita badly and willing to splash ‎£70mil

Didi Hamann seems to think Naby Keita could do for Liverpool what N'golo Kante has done for both Chelsea and Leicester. If true, then perhaps 70m quid would be worth it to end the 27 year drought and get #19

No idea what Everton paid for him but I doubt it can beat what Juve paid for Pogba before re-selling him back to United for a whopping 89m quid

Personally ain't totally sold on Lukaku as yet, so 90m or is it more like 100m quid looks way overinflated.

Waiting for the confirmation on Lukaku, be it £75 million or £90 million.

This Lukaku seemed to be jumping from 1 club to another . Rooney going back to Everton . Liverpool transfer seemed to be not moving in the direction that Klopp wanted .

£28mil was the sum Everton paid for Lukaku.

LFC submits planning application for redevelopment of Melwood

Liverpool FC has today submitted a planning application for the proposed redevelopment of the club's first-team training ground at Melwood.



The document submitted to Liverpool City Council applies for outline planning permission for the redevelopment of the Melwood site into much-needed quality family housing, which is in line with the council’s Local Plan.

The application forms part of the club’s plans to bring LFC’s first team and Academy football training operations and facilities together on one site in Kirkby.

LFC recognises that Melwood has played a significant role in the club’s history, but the site is limited in terms of space and is unable to accommodate the club’s ambitions for a new first-class combined training facility.

The planning application is expected to be determined by the council’s Planning Committee later this year.

If permission is granted, the proposed redevelopment could provide up to 160 new family homes with open space and landscaping. The planning application also seeks permission for vehicular access from Melwood Drive and Deysbrook Lane, in addition to cycle and pedestrian access from Crown Road.

Should the club be successful in obtaining planning consent, housing developers will be invited to bid to purchase and develop the site.

LFC will continue to work closely with Liverpool City Council to keep local residents and businesses updated on progress throughout the application process and any resultant development.

For more information on the proposals, local residents and businesses are invited to attend a drop-in session which will be held on Monday July 17 at West Derby Golf Club (83 Yew Tree Lane, Liverpool, L12 9HQ) from 3pm until 7pm. There will be an opportunity to view the proposed plans and speak with members of the project team.

God seems to think Lukaku maybe an upgrade to Ibra

Anyways the valuations for this summer transfer window is crazy, now Gylfi Sigurdsson is priced at 50m quid by Swansea

[Firmino]

Maybe we will play the waiting game with Naby Keita since his release clause will come into effect next summer. Any amount above 30 million is too much for this player.

Arsenal has Lacazette and Tottenham has Kane. Man Utd has Lukaku and Chelsea has Costa for now while speaking to Aubameyang and Morata.

I hope Liverpool is watching and learning.
