Johnson/Sturridge yesterday. Based on city not making them available for loan but would consider offers. Sturridge's future in question if chelsea do infact get Hulk. Prices for both were £30 Mil...which isnt too bad imo.
Wouldnt be bad them! Btw, anyone watch the sweden game yesterday and in particular rasmus Elm? Just wanting to know if he would be more dead, um, wood.
I assume you mean £30m for the pair rather than £30m each meaning the two would cost £60m...? I can't see us getting either but would be other the moan with any of them, ecstatic if we somehow got both (although they are both left sided)
I watched it at a bar, but either through drink or his performance didn't realise he was playing. Later on I scolded myself for not paying attention to a possible LFC signing's performance. Anyway, added a rumour list with basically everyone that's been touted about recently. Allows us to gauge the quality of possible signings possibly. Biggest (and probably) worst rumour I've heard yet is £35M for David Villa and Tello.
He played some nice cross field passes at times but like you said he was non-existant a lot of the game. jiracek from the Czechs looks tidy as well btw.
I saw that, christ! Would it be helpful if I turned the names listed into hyperlinks to the relevant rumours/confirmed deals?
Hey, for a back-up LB it wouldn't be the worst. Better than Konchesky, at least ward gets into the national side and plays!
Hard to judge from one game, but do you think he's an upgrade on what we already have? I'd rather we play Robinson!
Not only hard to judge on one game, but a game where Sweden's mids were really not that existant at all and had little impact on the game. I think we should try for that Schweinsteiger fellow On a side note, how good was Pirlo the other day? His passing is just incredible, the weight of his passes are second to none in my opinion.
I'm a long term Pirlo fan, criminally under-rated over here. In terms of passing he's on a very small plateau along with Xavi.
Evening guys What positions do you guys want to be strengthened this summer? I was quite surprised you sold Kuyt as there were worse performers last season that you could probably get more money for, was he trying to get more football?
Yes, and he's pretty much lost his legs unfortunately. Hopefully BR wants pace and guile out wide, hence Kuyt's departure.
First and foremost, a 3rd striker to compliment both Suarez/Carroll.Ideally said striker would be willing to play off either striker or play deep(Though Suarez can do that to allow a 3 prong attack vs the teams that park the bus.) Winger (That can play both flanks - Similar to downing only producing more goals/assists.)Having pace is a bonus ! Creative Midfielder - Outside of Cole/Aquaman, we have no Mids with any ability to dribble or thread neat passes.Gerrard is the exception but with injury there is no one to stand in.
