A diary of Liverpool Football Club's 2014/15 season, with a difference. The book may kick off with a chapter on the season opener and end with the last game; but this diary isn't written by a single author. Nor does it focus heavily on the actual football. Instead, We're Everywhere, Us is a collaboration - a compilation of pieces offering a different personal take on what it means to support Liverpool. Friendship. Family. Travel. Tragedy. Work. Each piece is a long, rich read, completely unique and distinct from those that precede and follow it. Some of the finest writers on Liverpool FC are involved, including Simon Hughes, Kevin Sampson, Melissa Reddy, Paul Tomkins, Mike Nevin and Steve Kelly. There are also contributions from Liverpool supporters living abroad, which gives We're Everywhere, Us a truly international feel - while opposition fans add yet another perspective on Liverpool FC's season, our captivating city and proud history.

Presumably Manchester United have sent a copy of the contract to Real Madrid in a format that they can read, and with the section marked "Release Clause" bolded and double underlined.
He used to be on £35k a week. He turned down their offer of £200k a week, which is what led to this hilarious farce in the first place. Let's be generous and assume he's re-accepted £200k a week. That's an extra £8.5m a year, or £34m over 4 years. Add that to the £29m Man United would have got for selling him, they've effectively just spent £63m on a goalkeeper, having already signed Argentina's national keeper on a free (clearly Van Gaal's favoured one). Let's hope he's worth it.
