It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Depends if they are willing to accept the add-ons. Saw yesterday they only wanted to offer £80m plus add-ons!

Surely, Liverpool wouldn't have ruled themselves out if a deal could be done at that price.

Or put it another way, they weren't at all serious if they couldn't stump up Nunez money for Bellingham? Or he just didn't want to go there? Or he won't be going to Madrid after all .....

Who knows anything?

Not like you to panic mate ;)

Our deals are done, the majority of them, anyway.

City will know more than we do if Bernie is still off or staying.

So we think our deals are done. The deals include: Bellingham, Kovacic, Gvardiol and Guerreiro.

For me its obvious that Madrid are trying to bully Dortmund into accepting a lower fee and Dortmund know that they will get the money from us after the cl final. We can’t be this confident if this isn’t the scenario.

That would be a 8/10 transfer window. Take Kovacic out, and it's a 11/10.

Bellingham and Gvardiol hopefully are good deals - neither proven however and therefore are always a risk - Bellingham especially might take time to adapt to Peps ways (lots do) and I just hope he has the patience and humility to learn - thats the biggest question for me along with can he adapt from playing a counter attacking style where he has a lot of space to playing against packed defences and teams who will press intensely - we know both Gundo and Bernardo and Rodri for isntance are all excellent at this.

Kovacic - Ive always liked but if he comes in its as back up player - he aint an improvement on what we have or wil be losing.
Guerriro - Never really taken much notice of him - he could be off to Bayern (but could come to us obviously as well)
at the age of 30 he maybe decent for a couple of years but thats it.

Im not sure its going to make other teams that bothered - they will look at is losing Bernardo and Gundo (if they go) and see it as a weakening of the squad

If we keep one of Bernardo or Gundo and add then that would be ideal

Would bring more to the party than Phillips imo mate

Think Gundo stays for 2 more years so your scenario isn’t that far fetched.

We will need someone like Kovacic if Gundogan leaves.

Ideally, however, Gundogan and Bernardo will stay and we will sign Bellingham, Gvardiol (assuming Laporte is off) and Guerreiro or another left back/utility player.

A speedster on the wing wouldn’t go amiss either but don’t see that happening.
