Thanks for this insightful post. Having read it, I feel much more positive towards Benteke coming to Liverpool. We'll have a Belgian contingent at the club now.
Carroll scored a **** lot for Newcastle because they knew how to use him, Balotelli would probably do the same #itsallaboutthemanager
The Balotelli gamble appears to have ****ed us. Surely for £15m Shaqiri ISN'T a gamble? And Konywhatsit? Yet we pay £20m for an unknown winger that Maureen had knocked back at half the price six months before...
Shaquri, Illaramendi and the Plank are all players who's stars have dimmed, two years ago they were all in demand and expected to draw large fees from top clubs yet now very few seem interested. I can only assume they have not lived up to their billing.
Manquillo going back? http://www.theguardian.com/football...uillo-liverpool-atletico-madrid-end-loan-deal
Newcastle manager Steve McClaren has played down reports linking Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli, 24, with a move to the Tyneside club. (Daily Star) Sevilla have reportedly won the race to sign Dnipro star Yevhen Konoplyanka. The 25-year-old has been linked with a move to England, with Liverpool and Spurs both interested. But, after Carlos Bacca agreed a deal to join AC Milan, Sevilla have swooped for the Ukraine international, according to The Express. A statement on their official website read: "Sevilla have reached an agreement with the player, in the absence of a medical and closing a deal with Dnipro."
Well he is out of contract. What deal is needed with dnipro???? Earlier it was that sevilla would not pay the wages. God only knows with that one. Please please please newcastle get desperate. Please bid... please
Yes evans is a two footed diver inner who's a cheat and not very good at all. And Coleman can't defend. No seriously evans is a shakey player who's not in the class Utd need for their ambitions same as brown or o'shea. The days of carrying them as you had plenty are gone. Utd need a top cb Coleman is a good strong runner but I don't think his final ball is consistent and I don't think he's any better than the dreaded glen Johnson when defending personally. However he'd be a massive improvement on utds current state of play. ... just like Clyne is a massive improvement on us having nothing.
I think he will be. All rumours were he was homesick and not really pushing as he was never given a go after his initial run and rodgers had plenty of need. Basically if downing is given 2nd and 3rd shots this kid could have if he'd shown up. I've been discounting him for a good while.
No substitute for hard work, playing first and parking the rewards as they automatically follow and leaving the agents out of it. Konoplyanka did ok but has been on a free from 6 months and no takers... the wages must be astronomical.... he wants real or barca money I'd say. Shaqiri did turn us down on an 18 Mil bid. He choose to stay at bayern. Then he decided to go for the Italian money and low taxes and everything on a plate. I have to wonder about attitude there. Again it is why I wonder about Montoya too... it's obvious you are a hanger on at barca and not moving makes him look bad. Illaramende I cannot really say. I don't know enough.
This is why I say good for all, as far as I know Everton have no real back up for Stones and Jags so Evans could be very useful for them.
