Griezmann has said on French TV that there is a "6 out of 10" chance that he will join Manchester United this summer. For whatever that's worth.

I like to think it's a dig at their league position.

Honestly, I figure if Liverpool aren't willing on giving Karius another go - why they went for him over the likes of Timo Horn is odd - and still don't trust Mignolet, Pickford might be a great choice.

Karius had a better season than Horn last year. He'll get another chance, and rightfully so. Wouldn't be at all surprised if Klopp stuck him in from preseason to get adjusted to take the starting berth on the opening day. Honestly, a lot of his problems stemmed from him missing preseason and a fair chunk of the Premier League, so he never got a chance to acclimatise to his new surroundings or teammates. Just thrown in at the deep end. He wasn't even as bad as everyone made out.

He got injured early on, didn't he?

I think he had one or two preseason games then missed a few months, aye.

Doesn't help getting crocked that early. 

[Hobo]

He did, he broke his hand pre-season.

I'd say that Liverpool are in a better position now goalkeeper wise than they have been for a bit, to be honest.

[9 to 5]

I don't trust Liverpool with goalkeepers after massively mishandling Brad Friedel.

[Hobo]

tbf, Brad Friedel wasn't that great at Liverpool

Frad Breidel was the best 'keeper you've ever had :@

[Hobo]

He's no Michael Stensgaard.

Sunderland striker Jermain Defoe is close to signing for Bournemouth on a free transfer.

[Rafael]

That's a great signing for Bournemouth. Sensing a Joshua King departure, perhaps?

Only great if he's going to Spurs

Does that mean Ross is defo leaving?

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Good deal for Everton, have to think Barkley's on his way out if they've got that signed and sealed.

[Gazz]

Hasn't Barkley's 10 day deadline to sign a new deal already passed?

[Gazz]

Defoe to Bournemouth.

130k a week.

THREE YEARS! the fuck?

[Jimmy]

Sky Sports saying more like £65,000?

[Gazz]

I was more shocked at the length of the contract than the wages. He'll be 59 by the end of it.
