ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

I'll be honest, I'm not entirely sure of the legality of it, but it appears yet another loophole of FFP.

In essence rather than declare a loss theyve taken a 150m loan, counted that as cash and so its only 50m.

Didnt they dilute their US shareholding of FSG by selling some of it to some other group? Bit like City's owners did a year or so ago. @PaulPowersTash Am I right about that bit?

I don’t see it as a big call. If I had backed pre
Season, I’m well in profit. They are top of the table despite being average, they are not great and miles away from last season, but struggle to see who will put a run together over the medium term. I can’t see them getting much less than 30 points away and 50 at home, and I think this will probably be enough.

I certainly don’t think they are nailed on, but certainly the most likely winners and evens probably reflects that give or take

Yep City have sold a 13% tranche to the CFM group in China for $400m and 10% tranche to Silverlake Investments in the USA ($500m). The CFG group is worth circa $4.8 billion dollars.

I presumed it's make believe. Is there any substance to it?

There was a funny article written by a blatant cultist with such smugness he wasnt aware he actually put down his own club.

First of he quipped that silly season was meant to start after the season finishes(no hint of irony either, mbappe comes to mind)

The he says how maybe 'phil' who hes now on first name terms with needs a step down as he coudnt cut it at a big club like barca ( he still cant see the irony in that their 'Phil' was one of their best players, so by his own admission actually put his own franchise down)

Then dismisses the speculation as phil wouldnt want to tarnish his reputation with der grateist fan in de werld (which i read as get bricks thrown at his house) by stepping down to join us while also conveying the fact alot of reds want 'phil' back. Ergo a similar step down by his own admission yet again.

The fool

ye - seems a good summary; I do think city are fair favourites & dont get me wrong, I wouldnt be at all surprised if they go and win it, but if I was having a bet I would still go for Liverpool, but only slightly.

It's a really interesting point on KDB; it's an insane arguement but I do wonder are they better without him. Silva and Gundogon, Fodon (now) seem to come out of their shell and their isn't the "Get the ball to him" attitude on the pitch.

Either way I still think the result sunday is irrelevant to the title, league is over.

My brain aches reading the summary.

In conclusion, welcome Phil.
