If i am not mistaken, it is 16m with Ngog and 20m w/o. But if an agreement had been made, how can they decide not to involve Ngog in the deal. This is terrible.

You just need to except that a majority of the english players valuation makes no sense.


That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

I am happy and we all should be because for once Liverpool are digging deep and working their arses off behind the scenes to sign players that Kenny think can move us forward and as early as possible. Our rivals have not moved yet in the market but we have for once. We shouldn't be worried, we should be excited for once. Have faith in Kenny you worrying bunch.


Back to Back World Champions baby!

I don't think the prices we are paying (which are looking a concern) come from City entering the market recently at all. They come from the ludicrous Carrol fee. It showed all of football how desperate we are to get back in the top 4 and gave a green light to all where Liverpool are concerned to jack the price up and try it on because desperation and a shown hand means one thing...we will pay.

If Kenny's plan is to follow Wenger's model without the stubborness for not signing a worldclass heavyweight or two mixed in the bag, then fine, but surely if that is so we should be paying Wenger prices?

That said, if we do get Mata and a few others a lot of the anxiety may subside, but how is anyone going to sell players of that quality to us at anything but galatic prices now when they have seen what we will pay for potential?

Really difficult to see how this summer will go from here with so many clubs competing for the cream of Europe and all having as much in the kitty if not more than LFC.

That's 55m paid for just potential!

Give Rafa 30m net spend a season and he will bring in world class proven players. (He brought in torres for 20m, alonso for 10m, masch for 18m, kuyt for 9m... I can go on. He did have his flop buys but generally he brought in world class players that we have sold for huge profits).

Can we say the same for comolli and to a certain extent king kenny?

At the moment, I really have my doubts and I think we're being screwed left right center in the transfer market. Everyone of my mates supporting other clubs think that way too. There's no way carroll was worth 35m and definitely not 20m for Henderson.

The more I think about it the more worried I get.


No one knows the price for HEnderson, it was £20million a coupe of days ago, and yesterday it was £16 million, we could have waited till today and got him for £12million if it was taking that pattern. No one knows how much. Am sure Carrolls price was not £35 million out right it will be add ons if he performs and what ww win etc.

Unfortunately the football has mad and is so money minded and the media love making up stuff.

comolli said he hasnt seen the correct henderson transfer fee in the press yet, so im thinking 15 or 17 million. and if i remember rightly carroll was 35 million straight up because torres was 50 straight up no add ons

Rafa bought these players when they wern't world class so y cant Dalglish do the same? Masch - Westham, Alonso - Sociedad, Kuyt - PSV only Torres was proven and that was from Spain duty as Athletico were mid-table. So if you think about Rafa bought these players at a risk only the market wasn't inflated by City and Madrid.
