    Controversial but instantly imrproves us especially with Johnson out now. A fraction of the price quoted for Austin and Rhodes too I'd hope

    Januzaj yes, Borini definite no for me. Purely based on attitude, didn't want to come when we needed him but now he's realised his options are limited he's panicking. **** him.

    I'm happy with this, he should be straight into the team, I can forgive him for his errors last summer, if he gets us some wins. <cool>

    No not really the lad thought he had a chance at Liverpool and wanted to succeed, this hasn’t worked out for him one way or another. I for one would welcome him back with open arms, considering that this time last year we had a £14m bid accepted.

    Happy to have him and Januzaj on loan, even with no options to buy - with 1 caveat: that we bloody well sign a marquee player (or two) that we can call our own this window. There has to be some substance to go with the stop gap.

    If he is coming back on a permanent deal he can at least have the opportunity to rebuild the glittering future he thinks he has. On the reality side he can just buckle down and show LFC what they lost out on.

    Overall, fairly uninspiring, but a player who knows what he is signing up for.

    If it's a loan for Borini then NO

    Just because Poyet embarrassed himself, and Borini mistakenly thought he could make it at Liverpool, doesn't mean he won't be good for us. And we don't have to pay £14m for him.

    Can just see him coming off the bench on Saturday and knocking one in...

    The crowd goes wild and all is forgotten..

    Bit petty. It's business mate, very few of them fall in love with the club.

    So we need a big stronger forward to play 4 3 3 formation according to dick I can see y we would go for borini NOT he's the complete opposite. Hope we have others lined up unless hes thinking of playing 4 2 3 1 formation which with our current crop of players would be a better system.

    Concerned if Fab is to be THE striker that we sign. Otherwise, assuming we sign a target man too, I'd be delighted to have him back. Lens on the right, Borini on the left. PACE!!

    Great age, good talent, time to get your career going son.
