He tore Atleti a new one, he was great. Shame we didn't get him.
Bamidele just had a shocker
Honestly we should of gone for that lad Trippier, he's matured like a fine wine!
Surely we're using Gio or Gil as a makeweight for Pau Torres in the summer?
Would be the best use of Gio since signing for us
Oh look, first hand evidence pointing towards how Spurs having the chance to sign a top top player but sabotaged their own transfer again.
Look forward to seeing how this is spun into a "we had no control over this transfer" story
I'm always happy to hate on Levy, but I fail to see why Liverpool would have just "let Diaz get signed" when they've been planning on signing him since the summer. Don't forget, to quote the article, "Diaz only wanted Liverpool".
It reeks of fake news. I don't think we had a legitimate shot at Diaz. Liverpool might have played us by allowing us to negotiate the price down and put in the work, just to come and sign him, sure. But that's life.

Of course it's fucking true.
I get you but here it is straight from the Horses mouth
Tottenham hesitated (Also known as Levy haggling) so Liverpool beat them to it.
Luis Diaz's father explains why he signed for Liverpool over Tottenham
Luis Diaz was on Tottenham's transfer radar last month before Liverpool swooped in and secured the winger's signature with his father opening up on his decision

He also said Diaz would only consider Liverpool. So it sounds like just a bit of drama for a dad who's living vicariously through his kid to enjoy.I get you but here it is straight from the Horses mouth

Kind of like the Lonzo Ball and his dad situation
The expression "too clever by half" comes to mind. It's like with Spurs the deal becomes more important than acquiring the player. All this stuff about Paratici and his cell phone and long hours sounds to me like a lot of people in business who mistake activity for results.
Pretty sure the “hesitated” comment was directed at Roma based on the quote.I get you but here it is straight from the Horses mouth

The player wanted Liverpool, Liverpool wanted the player. This was only ending one way, the only thing we could have done is not waste our time in the first place.
No longer give a shit blokes dead to me. Its even better because we will Johnathan David now.....by sheer dint of me constantly saying this.
Spurs 'HESITATED' in the race to sign Luis Diaz, says player's father
Spurs were in talks to sign the Colombian and were leading the race to sign him before the Reds sensationally hijacked the move in the final few days of the January window.
"And while Diaz's father, Luis Manuel Diaz, has revealed that Liverpool were truly the only club his son wanted to join",
Liverpool were always waiting in the wings.
The deal with the club and the player was agreed.
His agent then contacted Liverpool with the terms and Liverpool stepped in.
Anyone who thinks that had we agreed terms with Diaz on the 1st January and it would of been a different outcome is deluding themselves.
The different outcome would have been more time to pursue other opportunities, but other than that, yeah, agreedSpurs 'HESITATED' in the race to sign Luis Diaz, says player's father

We don’t need any defenders - defence is fine
