'Astute' ...

Abd England international with lots of experience in a title winning team with more goals and assists than all our current midfielders last year - yup I'd call that astute.

A forwards who out scored all of ours last year in a struggling side, is 22 so plenty of time to improve and no where near his prime - yup is call that astute as well
 
Just hope Spurs stupid 12m bid doesn't have too much influence on the tribunal fee. Can see Burnley turning around and saying well if we had him under contract we'd have got 12m for him... Etc
 
Andy Carroll played and scored in the championship, came up and did the same in the premier league. Everyone raved about him and he was sh!t
 
You get that with every signings. People were questioning Sturridge and courinho and can, while some were pleased with Moreno and balotelli... No one knows how a signing can go.

I think we'll all be disappointed if we start the season with ings as number 1 with Sturridge out injured but id rather have ings coming off the bench than Lambert borini or balotelli put it that way. Just need to try and shift those 3 to make room for a big name striker

May as well shoot themselves now <doh>
 
Ings signing on 1/7/15. We seem to be getting our business done early this year, whether it is good business remains to be seen

It happens most summers. And then everyone is like "promising early signings, now all we need is CMx2, LBx1, Striker x1...etc etc" Yet it never happens. Mark my words, Ings and Milner have not been bought just to pad the squad out, they will be very much a key part of Rodgers' budget revival

Andy Carroll was always top player potential and still is. I'v always rated him.

But e has been ruined by injuries. He was rarely match fit for us, the same for West Ham, and he's been a sick note at every club he has represented.

Andy Carroll is also however not suited to Liverpool FC. Him and Suarez were always to different to gel and he was never suited to Rodgers style.

Carroll was never worth £35m when we signed him. Probably £15-20m. But I will always rate him and feel sorry for him with his injuries.

And are a decent start to rebuilding this squad.

I believe the two clubs could agree on a fee before it goes to tribunal :huh: I don't think the £12m should make a difference, otherwise clubs would make ridiculous bids every time a u23 players contract is expiring.

Yea but they've already a rejected one offer from us so if we don't increase and agree it'll go to tribunal.

Dont get get get you mean about 2nd part. burnley had an offer of 12m for him and accepted, had he gone to Spurs they'd have pocketed that so if I was then I'd be saying, a player is only worth what a club is willing to bid... Well we had a formal bid of 12m which meets our valuation.

I I don't know how these tribunals are worked out but that would certainly be used if I was in burnleys side
