The bar for the lads you've listed above at 27 isn't as high as what Salah did. Salah scored 32 goals in a 38 game season lat year. Ronaldo, Henry, RVP at their prime didn't match that. I'd happily take a wager that he'll never beat that.

Getting a year older is not a guarantee that he's going to get better

The point is that he had such a freakish season 2 years ago that I don't think any of us can see him matching it. Obviously he could, but I don't think anyone would bank on it.

Will they increase the bid?
Why would LFC sell him (for any money)?

Why would he leave?

He was 27 two days ago, so surely has his best years ahead of him.

And LFC, already a top team/club, can realistically hope to improve even further, too, whereas both RM and Juve are playing catch-up.
 
That's a big call, given his form in the last two seasons
Yeah, you're right, 75 goals in 111 games is a sure sign he's past it.

Sell him now - "No reasonable offer refused" LOL

Baggio never said he was past it. The way I read it, it's odd to say his best years are ahead of him as it would take a lot to improve on his current form. Anyway, this 'story' is just paper bullsh*t
Would you have said the same about eg Ronaldo, Messi, Suarez, Pirlo, Modric, Silva or Aguero when they reached 27, for instance?

Hazard is now 28 - Real Madrid not expecting him to reach a new level?

Kevin de Bruyne will be 28 in 10 days time. D'ya reckon City have seen the best of him, too?

Or VVD at L'pool - 28 in July - another one who cannot get any better?

And then there's just about every Italian defender whoever was... LOL

Exactly my point Huntys.
 
He's going to have some few years ahead of him to surpass his form of the last two seasons, if his best years are surely ahead of him.

Villa paying over 20 million for a big Brazilian lad from Club Bruges. Can't say I'm familiar with him. Read he's similar to Benteke. Think Villa will have a massive turnover this summer, interesting to see who else they bring in.
"I called him an embarrassment to FIFA and to himself," .... He said 'No-one speaks to me like that'.... and I said, "well I do' and that was that."

Pablo Fornals to West Ham is a done deal, have never seen the lad player but some of the youtube clips are very exciting. 

That always works out, right?

No fan of Real at all, but there is just a little bit of a difference there!LOL
A difference, certainly, but maybe not so "little" as you might think!


(I'd guess the lawyers spent considerably more time reviewing that article than the authors did writing it!)

The Guardian is the only one that I'd pay the slightest bit of interest too, and at that it's very slight

A few years back there was  a survey  done to show which newspaper had the most accurate transfer news; that is, how many of their rumours went on to be actual  transfers. The Guardian and the Daily Record(surprisingly) were the most accurate, if I remember right, on around 33%. So the most accurate newspapers get two in three wrong!
Now, I am aware that often there is interest that doesn't follow through, or moves break down over contract negotiations, but that is still pretty damning.
