@Dan-MacKinnon Crazy money for Caicedo. Seems very strange that Liverpool pulled out of the Bellingham deal so early and now they are paying more for Caicedo.
Brighton are the best run club in the world at the moment, Cucurella deal as well absolutely nuts prices! Imagine if they were playing for Norwich 30 million at best.

@Ryan it has to go POP sooner or later!!!
It won't be the hard reset back to competitive football that we all want without massive intervention. The greedy 6 are too far gone now that they'll never allow it and any pop will just see them breakaway and do a Super League again.
Right now, Champions League teams make £300m more than the rest of the Premier League teams. Then add on increased sponsors, etc. how is it ever going to be truly competitive?

@Andy-Donnelly Was listening to a podcast that broke this down, all speculation but they were mentioning
Wages
Agent fees etc...Saying that's what breaks so many deals now.
They also mentioned which was interesting fans saying pay the extra 3-5m BUT thats actually 1% of the top teams turnovers. Thats massive when you think like that, with the interest rates that they are at now.

@Dan-MacKinnon It'll be hard to replace the guys they've lost! If Mitoma goes then WOW!

@Ryan football is broken! British record transfer for a seagull
The only silver lining is that it might help them get relegated

@Andy-Donnelly 100% I agree with you. You've asked a very good question that as traders we have to ask....
Who's going to stop them.
Their form in the last ten games (Liverpools) was the 2nd best in the league, now if they continue that then amazing.
Look at what they did last season? It wasn't the big teams they struggled against it was unlocking the lower bottom ten teams.

@Ryan @Akiva-Anderson I think it’s very difficult to predict right now, more so then most seasons as think there is still a lot of transfer activity likely to happen which could change things.
However if the window shut now, I am definitely in the camp that thinks Liverpool will struggle to make top 4. But on the flip side if they don’t make it, who will?
There are question marks over most teams.
Controversial, but I’m not even convinced Arsenal are absolutely nailed on for top 4. Despite a good window, champions league football for the first time in a while will stretch them.

@Akiva-Anderson I can see that happening!! I looked at some stats on this, they are terrible at scoring goals which keeps you in the league.
They need to keep Calvert-Lewin fit. I don't think they will. His legs are made of weetabix
