In relation to FSG’s finances, the other team they own, the Red Sox, just let a player who spent 10 years with the team and was at the peak of his powers, walk away for free because they didn’t want to pay them. That combined with the sale of Liverpool might mean they aren’t liquid at the moment, especially after they bought a hockey team for around $800million. So I don’t know if they’ll bring forth the cash for a deal that’ll probably be 130m and 300k in wages

I read somewhere that his dad preferred Liverpool. Oh that club owned by ?….? with policies which are ?……..?"Preparing to fight' alleges we haven't even made a move yet, which is so far from the truth.
Remember what I said a few weeks back, Txiki had brought forward all our summer negotiations because of the World Cup.
Dad is mad.

You could say that about almost any player. Who's been sensational? No "superstars". Messi might be the best of that lot.Bellingham wasn't sensational, no England player was anything more than decent.
He looks a player without doubt but the reality is he went missing a lot in the world cup & not one English player stood out
Amrabat is the only one that immediately springs to mind for me; and how did he go in the Premiership?

Surprised that Curtis Jones hasn't stepped up, he was the next big thing in midfield, or so I was reading around 2 years ago...
Bellingham with the City scarf above his head - the piss boiling will be tremendous.

Earlier in this thread, there was a discussion about claims that Bellingham had signed a pre contract agreement with Liverpool. It was said that it was impossible.
l have my doubts. Surely a player with prior permission from his club can sign an agreement any time he likes? A player may be stopped from doing so by his club up until he is 6 months from the end of his contract, but after that he is free to sign such an agreement. I doubt if these rules interfere with freely agreed arrangements between an owning club and their player.

In the world in which, as I described, the player has his clubs permission to look for alternatives. It is easily detectable from the words in my post, if you can read.In what world is what you describe not tapping up....

Not a chance Txiki is sat at home and waiting till next summer and faxing over an offer to Dortmund. He will have spoken to Bellingham's team and they will be in constant communication.

You're probably right, but why would Dortmund want to give him that opportunity?Earlier in this thread, there was a discussion about claims that Bellingham had signed a pre contract agreement with Liverpool. It was said that it was impossible.

What would Dortmund or Bellingham have to gain by signing a pre contract agreement? Also if it was true it would be all over the media. Usual scouse deluded hysteriaYou're probably right, but why would Dortmund want to give him that opportunity?

never forget romio laviaYeah like Phillips , but if we lose both Bernardo and Gundogan - 2 replacements would be great. Although Bellingham would be fine alone.

100% spot on. That would make no sense whatsoever.What would Dortmund or Bellingham have to gain by signing a pre contract agreement? Also if it was true it would be all over the media. Usual scouse deluded hysteria
No, I don’t think they would. My point was of general application, arguing against the idea that such an agreement was not possible. I’m pretty sure that the Liverpool fans who say he has signed one are wrong. What is worrying is the reports that his dad favours Liverpool. Let’s hope Bellingham does the right thing and that @tolmie's hairdoo is right.You're probably right, but why would Dortmund want to give him that opportunity?

By 'favours' Liverpool, do you mean he's said to be a fan of them, or that he actually thinks he should go there?No, I don’t think they would.

Dad is reported in a couple of places as saying son should go there. How true these reports are, I have no idea. Maybe just puffery by the scouse.By 'favours' Liverpool, do you mean he's said to be a fan of them, or that he actually thinks he should go there?
Also they cant do that as with anything agreed between dortmund it has to be announced with them being on the stock exchange doesnt it.What would Dortmund or Bellingham have to gain by signing a pre contract agreement?
