Liverpool agreed terms with Cardiff apparently.
 
Liverpool agree £1.2m loan fee with Cardiff for Harry Wilson

Sheesh... that’s a lot just for a loan.

Glad we stayed away from that.

The game will pass him by at Cardiff
 
The Swans were unable to stump up the £1.2m loan fee Liverpool wanted for the 23-year-old, with the Bluebirds also paying Wilson's £60,000-per-week wages in full.

60K a week! Glad we stayed away from him.

If that is right then its not a case of being unable (even if it is) its a case of having the common sense not to spunk £60k wages per week on top of a crazy loan fee

Some clubs never learn
 
I understand things are a bit different now but we paid around £7m-£7.5m in total to loan that dreadlocked twat from Bayern Munich.
 
If he was going to be a replacement for Ayew, keeping Ayew represents far better value for that kind of Wonga. Shame for the lad though, he's not a guy for a hoof em up kind of approach is he, after being in Liverpool's ranks that long. Liverpool trying to extract as much value as they can. Risky strategy for them though. The quick buck from Cardiff won't be much compensation if their style, or lack thereof, means his value is reduced when Liverpool finally sell him on.
 
If Liverpool think a loan move to Cardiff for Wilson will turn him into a 20+ million pound player to sell on next season then they are going to be disappointed.

Wrong club, and very shortsighted by Klopp, as he will find out...

He'll soon be out with an injured neck....looking for the fckn ball.
 
A decent player at this level, but at the wrong club, a big gamble at that price, looks a panic buy all day long?

He would have been very useful here, but not at that price.
 
Harry Wilson might well be the best player in the Championship (if fit and firing of course), gutted Swans haven't got him but at least it should mean Ayew is staying and he is also one of the very best players in the Championship.
