I swear 4 years from now you'll still be spending these Coutinho funds

vvd was signed before coutinho was sold

ya like Higuain was signed before Pogba was sold

He was ?

It's big money but we desperately need a GK, it's an obvious weakness. If Alisson fixes our GK problems then no one will talk about the fee. The same thing happened with Van Dijk, we desperately needed a player at his position, he came for big money and did the job, and now no one is mentioning VVD's transfer fee.

I mean 'most expensive -insert position-' ever seems to be more and more a thing every season

he's a good GK and it was clearly a massive issue for Pool over the last few seasons so I guess he's worth it for them

At any rate he's probably the best GK available atm, good signing

hopefully this means they're basically done in the transfer window

I really think they're still lacking some good depth to deal with all the football this season, need a few more good signings  to improve on their PL position

66.8m fee is not very bad imo

Having a top GK is priceless.

Wait I forgot we put in 7 past him against Roma over two legs. OUT

Done dealio

Tonight @Alissonbecker will flly to #Liverpool @SkySport @OfficialASRoma @SkySportsNews

Who is Roma supposed to replace him with? They sold Skorupski too. Perin and Meret got signed.

Roma should buy mings for £30mil

Olsen and Areola are mentioned

I wonder if they decided to splash the Fekir cash on Alisson

Or is the Fekir move still on ?

Liverpool well into no-excuse land now

Let's bid adios to Mig and Karius, shall we

In addition to who S mentioned, there's also Cillessen from Barca as well that's linked.

Monchi apparently isn't looking for a phenom, just someone reliable. I personally don't have a preference as long as they're not error-prone.

It was 75 million euros. Buffon cost 52 million euro in 2001.

Alisson will be in UK on next hours to sign as new Liverpool player. Done deal also for his personal terms. He is really, really happy. #LFC #Liverpool #transfers

Oblak will probably break this record in a year or two

100% ok with this deal. Everyone gets what they need. Alisson garnered international attention and earned the next step in his career. We got an excellent keeper (for 8m) who anchored us to a CL semi and restored our continental pride while his sale injects us with more than enough cash to replace him adequately to remain competitive in all fronts. Liverpool gain the truly top shelf keeper they need to keep making deep runs to win another CL and/or PL title.

Either way it's hashed, we are weaker now than we were last year. There's no getting around that. We are more dangerous from a position of weakness though as expectations are not as high. I have an infinitely better feeling about this sale than any of the others of this kind that we've done. The only thing preventing more like this in the future is revenue from our own stadium. We need it badly.

am I the only one not impressed with Alisson? Any random German keeper would be better for Liverpool imo, look at Arsenal bringing Leno for €22m.
