Glasner Out

[est1905]

I hope you're right because so far I've seen zero potential that he's worth anywhere close to the 35m we've spent on him.

A good player does not become a bad one over night. Ask any Forest fan. He practically got them promoted on his own. First year in the Prem with them unplayable which was why Spurs paid £47m for him.
He will come good. I have no doubt whatsoever.

Of course it was. It was his release clause. We had no control over the deal to get more than that and it was the only way to get Olise to stay the year before. If it was a bad deal Bayern would have got him for less. The fact is we made them pay every penny or go away.
Besides, I personally would not have sold Olise for less than £70m at the time but market forces dictated 2 things. 1. Theres no way we'd have got that much. 2. There was no way we were keeping Michael beyond that summer.
£56m (which was the release amount I am told) was a brilliant deal

Olise himself set the release amount £50+5 or 6 add ons which have now probably been paid. A good World Cup, Champions League win or Ballon d’Or would probably make him worth well in excess of £100m. We are then likely to get a nice cut of 10-20% if he gets bought by one of the really big boys although I don’t think the Bayern fans would be too impressed.

Has this Topic Title run its Cause ?

He’s out soon ie end of Season

Or will a discussion be had if he wins the Cup ?

Cos then he has a new challenge that he seeks

I'd love to see the correlation between Muñoz's health and our overall success. Ditto Guehi's availability, with a dollop of Lacroix and Sarr. Likewise, healthy Mateta was useful for us; injury-carrying/hiding Mateta has been a liability.

Has Glasner put Harry kane on corners, has Glasner played arguably the best LB of all time at CM, has Glasner been knocked out by Iceland, Has Glasner been Liverpools worst manager in the Premier league era, Has Hodgson won the fa cup, has Hodgson won the Europa league. You're so clueless its funny

How unbelievable insulting to Roy Hodgson, you seem to have no standards, disgraceful to Roy

Yeah... you're right, of course. It was some coup to keep him out of Chelsea's clutches the summer before so I suppose the fee was to be expected.

I still think Bayern got a truly great deal to get him for even 55 mil. In my opinion, talent-wise, he was a 100 mil player.

Just by the by, didn't Reading get 8m or something as their part of the sell-on clause?

Sorry, I must be a bit thick - I don't understand the point.

Myself I think the quality in the prem has gone down , and not getting better that has really been shown up in euro comps ; and refs replying on var ; perfect storm the lge has to sort out

Agreed. Liverpool, Manure, Chelsea, City and Spurs are not unbeatable.

The Arse aren't that good but they are thr best of a bad bunch.

I don't think this has anything to do with VAR or ref's it's just cyclical, those teams will come again.

I think so yes. At a time when they desperately needed the money so it all worked well for everyone
