must be a pain for them when they can’t login anyone else’s scouting. They have to wait until they hear rumours of players being bought (Wirtz us and Madrid or Etikite Newcastle) before swooping in

Can someone put me right here? I dont really understand PSR.

Isak cost Newcastle 60m on a 6 year deal - 10m per year when amortized.
3 years left on his contracy so he is worth 3x10m = 30m
If we give them 130m for him, thats 100m pure profit.
So they could buy 5 x 100m players (with the cost spread over 5 years)

In other words, if we buy Isak, NUFC can go out and immediately spend half a billion.

That cant be right, surely?

Why not? You sold Coutinho for 130m and that funded your next billion in transfers.

How good is this Ekitike? Never seen him play and seems to have had an underwhelming career other than his time at Frankfurt.

Even at Frankfurt, it looks like he's done well but nothing out of the ordinary. 15 goals in 33 league games, and 22 in 48 overall. So a slightly less than 1 in 2 striker in Germany. For one season. Before that, he scored 4 in 16 on loan after failing to get games for PSG. I know it's famous last words, but if the scousers buy this guy as their main striker instead of Isak, I'll be delighted.
 
So what I note is this.

Milos Kerkez - Bournemouth, £40m

Florian Wirtz - Bayer Leverkusen, £116m

Jeremie Frimpong - Bayer Leverkusen, £29.5m

Giorgi Mamardashvili - Valencia, £29m

Source: Sky Sports Transfer Centre.

Ekitike, we are told, is a done deal, at more than £70m.

So ok, we're looking at spending — just for this window — of north of £284,5m. Now if they've got the money, and they can stay within the PSR rules, sure, go ahead spend it. Got no problem with that. It would be hypocritical of any City supporter to say otherwise. What I simply can never get my head round is Why do they get a free pass from the media? Why is there never mention of “big-spending Liverpool” which is trotted out like a kneejerk mantra, all the time, relentlessly, in relation to us? And which is repeated by brainwashed morons, supporters of other clubs, on the comments section of the BBC when they're not droning it down the pub.
When we smashed Juventus in the CWC, there was the usual comment: “Means nothing, they bought it.” I shouldn't let it get to me — I shouldn't even read it, in fact — but it does. Yes, you fuckwits, the days of Burnley and Ipswich Town winning the league are long gone! Everybody buys their success — with the single fairy-story exception of Leicester City (which had not happened since Derby County in the seventies, and will not be repeated again this century). And that is true in every major European league.

I never used to believe it. Thought it was Bluemoon, persecution-complex, paranoia. But we really are, without any shadow of a doubt, treated and reported differently. Utterly sick and tired of it.
 
in true dipper cult fashion they locked the forum months ago, seems other teams scouse threads was just too much to bare.
So now it’s basically an echo chamber

Have you only just realised?
It's been going on ever since the Aguero goal v QPR and maybe before that come to think of it.
Uncanny.

I think, to be fair, your dating is ever so slightly out. The rags were so very, very hated by that point that the entire country seemed to be behind us. Yes, even LFC fans. Why? Because at that point, we were seen as “plucky City”. We'd come out of nowhere (wrong — but simply one of many misconceptions by people who think that football does not predate about 1980, or preferably 1992). And it was generally assumed that having struck a blow against the empire, we would humbly get back in our box and return to nowhere.
I can't recall having bother with Liverpool fans prior to the takeover, honestly (I'm not talking about going to Anfield, which I still remember as one of the most dangerous and feral grounds in the country, going right back to the sixties — but it was for everyone, without distinction of who you supported).
2013-14, now, was a different story. Now that was not cricket! In the Justice-For-The-Ninety-Six year, we actually fucking dared to win the title! Then genuine vitriol (exhibited disgracefully towards us on the very day we impeccably observed the one-minute's silence at Anfield on the anniversary day) set in. And has only grown.

Add it to the expensive keeper, 80 million VVD and 75 million Nunez, countless 40-50-60 players also but as you said, never mentioned. Reckon their starting team will only be behind Chelsea in spending next season
 
Pisses me off how they operate, first sneaking in and turning Wirtz’s head when it was us who flew him over, now doing pretty much the same thing to Newcastle with Ekitike when it was the Geordies who’d been negotiating with the player.

Do these scouse twats just wait and see who other clubs want instead of finding their own players?

It is a tad irritating at times I grant you. Every story needs a villain. They've tried to make it us.
