Absolutely, the possibilities are endless with the Coutinho money. They should have used a little of it to sign Jules Kounde in January though.

It reminds me of when 'holistic' was mentioned to the dim press corps. Because they did not know much less understand it, they decided to mock it.
They also ridiculed the word 'project' but ditched that when other clubs began to use it.

Remember that, was it Garry Cooke who first used "holistic"? The media love to stick the boot in when City are concerned.

If all that is true they owe around 320m in total, with their non player debts they are in the dodo big time, I wonder what Senor Tebas has to say about that.

Eh no, pretty sure I read elsewhere Barcelona took a bank loan to pay Liverpool for the transfer. So technically they still owe Liverpool, but in actuality they owe the bank.

Not the actual source I read from but here

Besides, Liverpool spent the money from an accounting perspective, regardless of the timing of their various cash inflows and outflows.

In a two-horse race, those are ridiculous odds.

It's technically a 3 horse race. Home win, away win or draw.

I presume if you sell a debt you get less for it than the outstanding balance so that those chasing make a return?

would be interesting to know what they did get?
