PL Opposition Tidbits

Son announces that he'll leave Spurs. Sad to see him go. One of the few players I really would have loved to have seen play for us, and a really typical Liverpool player if there ever was one.

Just a great guy and marvelous football player.
Fantastic Ange gave him the trophy as captain he deserved before leaving,

What a player he’s been. Wish Klopp got him.
 
The Guardian is reporting that the Scum are struggling to get the land they need for that big stadium project of theirs. They want to buy the rail terminal for £40-50m, the owners want £400m.
That site will be partly used for the new ground and partly for the wider redevelopment of the area. It's not like they can proceed with any aspect of the project unless they purchase it.
Quite aside from the negotiation / cost perspective on buying the land, any delay in the process will add loads of cost to the other aspects of the build (principally inflation, and exposure to movements in steel prices). Meanwhile, Old Toilet will keep getting more and more dilapidated.
We spent years buying up houses near the ground to build the Main Stand - even if you can persuade the local authority to issue a compulsory purchase order, it's not a quick, or cheap, process.
Sad.

I’m surprised Utd haven’t offered Garnacha as an add-on.
 
They've already got a "Cunha" so a "Fermin" suits them. Too bad Rafael Scheidt retired, would have been a perfect signing too.
 
I think James Garner (Everton) is going to have his breakout season. That's my first bold prediction for the upcoming season.
 
Spurs being linked with Rodrygo this morning as a Son replacement.

Harvey did pop in to my mind when I saw the Maddison injury.

I bumped into a few of my Spurs mates atvtge weekend and they mentioned Elliot - I think he’d do well there under Frank - maybe a loan deal would a good option for everyone.

Only if it comes with an obligation to buy.
