    Lad who gives me my snippets from the club just told me this is OFF.

    Apparently there is a plan B, that we will hear about early next week.

    I'd be delighted if that's the case. He'll be worth maybe 8 this time next year.

    Apparently, we haven't even managed to have further talks this week, it's at a total standstill so we've backed out.

    We'll see in the next few days if a firm alternative target comes to the fore, but as you know the info I get from this kid has been bulletproof for about 3 years now.

    Borini's ****ed us off. Fair play. I'm not sure why he let it get this far, ****ed us around.

    I think to be fair Fabio has been clear from day one that he wanted to fight at Liverpool.

    His agent has strung it out looking for his payday, and in fairness, this is one time his agents move would have benefited his career.

    He will not become first XI at Liverpool, ever.

    I think I'm the only person who doesn't especially rate him. I hate footballers who don't know their position and he reeks of that.

    He's a good player with potential, decent pace , great touch, but I don't think he'll ever be much better than he is.

    He's a good fit for us like, but I'm not arsed, I'd like him as a wide man, but as a striker don't fancy him at all.

    I don't see why Mavrias can't be just as good like.

    You have to assume that Borini has been given some glimmer of hope by Rodgers, otherwise he'd have signed straightaway.

    As Disco says, he will be significantly cheaper next year

    Wouldnt surprise me in the slightest if Plan B was Danny Wellbeck, I understand he is available at the right price !

    I'd love us to just sign a winger.

    Agreed. I'm not heart-broken if we don't get him. At the same time I don't blame him for wanting to keep his options open.

    I think the fact he didn't make the World Cup has a lot to do with it and he's holding out for a club that can help him get back into the national squad, maybe back in Italy. I don't think it's so much about us but more about his own personal ambitions.

    Good luck to the lad. He helped us out last season and I'm grateful for his efforts.

    who will make the 1,000 th Borini post? will they get a special prize or will the club gazump us by signing a real next level forward/attacking player before we hit that number.

    can't believe it has gone that far but says a lot about what fans would like to see incoming.

    I'm inclined to agree with you on this one now. I've give it time, remained confident and positive. A line has to be drawn though and it's time we ****ed him off and moved on.
