    Hi guys

    How much would you accept for Tiote?

    Also Ba?

    I reckon 25mill for Cheik and 15 for Ba, although he's probably worth more.

    Cheers!

    Wouldn't accept any offer, need to keep players to build a good team.

    Well considering Dagleish thinks Henderson is worth £20m then I'd want £30m for Tiote. Ba has more goals than Carroll got at this stage last year so £40m for him.

    To be fair I dont see too many better players in his position. So although i wouldnt want to pay 30, he's arguably worth it.

    Ba has turned out a great buy too.

    About £28mil for Tiote or £50 mil if it's Liverpool and £25mil for Ba or £45mil if its Liverpool.

    I wouldn't accept any money for them.

    However, if I were to VALUE them, I'd say £25mill each.

    As a Liverpool fan what's your opinion on your clubs transfer policy of paying double what players are worth? And do you agree that your club should be buying absolute dross just because they are English?

    Do you think Ashley would accept though?

    First point its annoying. Second, bar Carroll, we are not buying dross at all.

    No idea. I don't think so, unless it was ****ing stupid money like Carroll was offered.

    Ashley is a billionaire, so he certainly isn't stupid. If he has any ambition or excitement over the football and the positions were in (and I think he does) then he will know that flogging both Tiote and Ba would royally **** up our season.

    Llambias has said himself that our target is a top 10 finish and also said that we're well on course to get that, and he's clever enough to know that selling these players would probably scupper that target completely.

    Don't forget, we've only sold players who:

    A). Wanted to leave (Carroll, Nolan, Enrique)
    B). Had beef with the owners (Barton)

    We have yet to actually sell a player who wanted to stay, so if more reasonable offers are put forward (i.e. nothing ridiculous) and the player wants to stay put, then we'll see what Ashley does, because so far that's a scenario we haven't seen.

    Well the likes of Henderson, Adam and Downing might not exactly be dross but they're not the best like are they. Having said that I'd love Downing at Newcastle, I wouldn't go anywhere near Henderson (Who has been better than I thought for you's) or Adam. Mind selling Carroll for £35mil (<laugh>) and getting Ba in as a replacement for free was a stroke of genius. I almost feel sorry for Liverpool with that deal.
