Why would we pay more than anyone else? Borini would go where he wanted regardless of transfer fee. We should offer £4 mil tops. Isn't he in the last year of his contract?After he nearly went back to Italy for 4m....why the hell are we paying this, Doesn't make sense.
As has been said before, I am assuming he will play on the left of the front three which means Defoe up top, dick has said Defoe can't play there. So surely we are bringing a striker in. I cannot see Borini being played up front. Does Dick want him?
Let's face it, if he comes here and on his first interview or article in the Echo, he says that he was trying to get into the Liverpool team (which is much better than ours) then you can't blame the lad for his ambition.
If any of you are footballers surely you would want to play for the best team you could.
Then, if he says he will give everything for us, he will be accepted.
You can't blame the lad for wanting the best he can get.
I don't really think it's all about the money.
If we do get him then we should accept and support him 100%.
The strange thing is, we need him less now with the other signings we have made. Our priorities are LB, RB, all out striker then central defence.
Funny how we've needed a LB for ages and now that we have one we really need another, in fact PVA would probably make a good left winger.
How about Seb for RB?
He'll probably fail it.having a medical now by all acounts. I'm happy with this.
He'll probably fail it.
Well blow me one he's having a medical ( apparently) that means nowt.how many of our targets have failed medical over the years. bubbly
Forget the money, we're ****, we are desperate, clubs know that and we have to pay simple as that.
Does he improve us? Yes
Can he play in Dicks system? Yes
Does he give 100% on the pitch? Yes
Is he young with resale value? Yes
I know he said he did not want to come here but he is not the sort of player to sulk he will give 100%
If he does well we will be able to sell him on for a profit so the money is not a big risk.
I am not 100% sure he is the right man to play the lone striker role? Ramos might be a better option but he is better than Fletcher or Graham.
