Omg, I got "operant conditioned" when reading this point and an amount of sheer terror flooded into my mind. Thanks, Jussi.
You know, they call it "shades of grey" when it fits their narrative.

As much as I love Klopp, he is becoming way too influential at LFC. I guess FSG are ok to put all their eggs in the same basket.
If you travel a bit outside the western world, you understand why people call us westerners hypocrites.
We judge others while doing the worst things but we say "hey shades of gray!"

If you think non westerners don’t understand shades of grey and moral relativism, maybe you need to travel outside of the western world more. Or examine your biases

Oh, that, I do not necessarily disagree with. Hence why I said, multiple time that I would be very critical if the USA, for example, bought a team.

I mean as that fee keeps creeping up, I am becoming a lot more uncomfortable with it

How much did you expect?
Multiple reports are confirming the links between Alexis, and LFC. The top two in Argentina and Fab. Brighton and Liverpool maybe haven’t in discussion yet but I think it’s a safe bet that Liverpool and Alexis are. Liverpool will definitely send an offer imo.

So at the start of the week reports we’re saying 60-65. By the end of the week they were saying around 80
You know I like Alexis. I like him a lot less at 80m. I would be disappointed if he was the “best” midfielder they were able to bring in and 80m them bringing in someone better is a lot less likely.

Very calm, good on the ball, basically perfect positionally. Won himself a spot in the NT starting 11.
Weaknesses... I guess we're still to see how he handles big nasty forwards. He's 1.90m, so about middle of the park for a CB, not incredibly tall, but not short either.
I'm not saying he's the next Gvardiol (he's 23 btw), but he's hardly put a foot wrong in the last year or so, both for Dinamo and for the NT.
He's played 6 games so far for the NT (Dalic opted for Lovren in the WC, for more experience, turned out all right, but Sutalo at this point is the better player).
He played 90 mins every time, beating France, Denmark twice, Morocco, and Turkey. Against Mbappe and his boys, and against all these other forwards, he never once looked out of place.
Same for Dinamo in the CL - even if they were getting dominated by Milan, he was usually the best player along with the GK Livakovic.
I think he could be better in the air for his height (1.90m) and just might need some time to adjust to a big, competitive league (cause our league is not one of those).
Is he better than Saliba or Gabriel? Dunno. Hard to say.
(Gabriel looked pretty awful at Dinamo btw, so who knows)
At the very very worst, he's a massive upgrade over Holding.
And unless something goes wrong, he'll be pushing Saliba/Gabriel for a starting spot.
He's like... REALLY good, basically.

Will be interesting what United do at keeper over the summer.
Can't imagine they sign DDG to a new contract.
Henderson still has a couple years, but I'm skeptical United will move forward with him as the starter given they've had a million chances to do it previously and haven't and also it's a little uncertain given how much time he missed with an injury that could potentially affect things like explosiveness. However, if United make moves to bring in another #1 (either DDG on a very short extension or someone else) even with the idea that they'll provide backup for Henderson, I have to think Henderson would just say no thanks and look for a permanent move away. He's been passed over multiple times already and I think he'd love to do something like sign for Forest long term and be cemented as their #1.

There was rumours that they were interested in Bono but I find him way too similar to De Gea for that to happen (great shot-stopper, one-on-ones and poor with his feet along with the occasional gaffe). And he's definitely leaving Sevilla this summer.
