KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum MEIRELES OFF NOW TOO!

'Following Maxi Rodriguez's request to leave, the next Liverpool star seeking to join the Liverpool exodus this summer looks likely to be Rauil Merieles - one of the few Anfield success stories of last season

In a move that will further baffle fans already scratching their heads at the £20 purchase of the mediocre Jordan Henderson from Sunderland, tjhe club look set to accept a £10m offer from Italian Giants Inter Miland - who unlike the Merseyside club do have genuine title aspirations next season'

If this is true I challenge any fan to defend the club's abysmal transfer policy this summer

I long for the days Rick Parry was in charge of our transfers - at least back in those days we never spent summers with the intention of weakening an already fairly patchy squad

16 days into a transfer window and this is the sh1te people are coming out with,the same lads will be wetting themselves about how great things are if we make a couple of decent signings next month.

So Jim Tonez ,
If Rick Parry was still in charge then he would not have signed Andy Carroll , Luis Suarez and Jordan Henderson? So who would you think he would have signed? At what cost? Who would want to sell players to Liverpool FC when we bid the lowest price and expect to stick to that price and wait till the club agree and if there is no agreement then just walk off?

I've read somewhere that he is the one who does not want to agree a price for some players that slipped through our fingers. Most notably is C. Ronaldo. So Jim , if Rick Parry are still around who do you think he can sign and what price do you think he can get for players?

Back to Meireles , I think it would be a great loss if we were to lose him in this transfer window. Love to see his late run into the box that made him one of the Kop Favourite last season. He is in the class of his own and he have not indicated that he wants to leave Liverpool yet. So unless we heard from him himself that he wants to leave then the is no worries yet.


Just My Opinion
YNWA...

But given that he's considerably better than both Henderson & Adam I find it completely baffling

How precisely is he considerably better than Henderson or Adam?

at the moment our transfer activities look this

[IN}
Henderson - £16-20m
Adam - around £10-12m
Mata (i can't see us getting him) and believe we'll end up stumping up £20m for Downing
Scott Dann - Again as clubs are befginjing to see ius as the mugs that we are birmingham will probably push for about £15-16m and why not. Any club that pays £36m for Carrol and £20m for Henderson onviously has a crew lose somewhere

[OUT]
Rodriguez - ???he's 30 so it won;t be much
Merieles (£10m - despite the fact he cost is £14m and had a good season)
Aquilani (£8m despite trhe fact he cost is £20m and on the rare occasion he got an outing dids quite well)

Not only does this show that we are horrendous at jodging how good players are but are awful businessmen to bott

Rick Parry would not - if he ever had the type of money the dangerous comoli now has at his disposal - get rid of players like Merieles, Rodriguez and Aqualani and replace them with inferior players who cost more money

You don't have to be Einstein to woirk out that however you look at it that is a sh*t set of transfers

Rick Parry would not have signed Suarez,Carrol & Henderson but of trhgose three the onky one who looks any good (albeit very good) is Suarez

Carrol and especially Henderson (whose been dire for the U21s - if anyone on here gas avctually been watching) look pretty average - yet the price we paid for them suggests they ought to be world beaters

He's a far better player with inerbnational experience with one of the better teams in wotld football, has an eye for goal, and had it not been Kenny who signed Henderson (and probably Adam too) you'd be agreeing with me 100%

These signings (proposed signings) have Comoli written all over them

And I can't believe that Liverpool (the club I have supported all my life) would spend a bomb on players like Henderson, Adam and whoever the f*** else so long as they are English and young(ish) - whilst at the same time letting far better players (and Aquilani, Merieles and Rodriguez are FAR better than Henderson, Adam at least) go for a pittance

And you guys arte tippong us for winning the league

are you all completely out of your minds???

Are you related to Emp?

I dont want to see Meireles leave, but if it is for the best and someone else comes in who will do a better then there is no problem.

We have to trust Kenny and Commoli at this time, they have a plan in place which hopefully will succeed. I trust them.

As for your comment about Parry. That man was a total waste of space. The list of players we lost out on due his time wasting in the transfer windows is huge. The guy was sh!te at his job, and our club suffered because of him.
