lads lets just forget about the prices were paying for players and just be happy were buying top qualty players who kenny has picked to push liverpool to the next level....
ok fine but if they dont work there is no excuse , downing is a good premier league player but he isnt a top draw winger and i do think 20 million is a bit to much see that villa only paid 10 million for him 2 seasons ago i dont think he has improved that much .

Why the negativity?? Ooh, what is it doesn't go right? What if we start off poorly? Jesus p*ssing christ lads... What if we win our first 10 games? Ifs and buts and maybes. Here's a very good article, well worth a read, especially for the doubters: http://www.football365.com/f365-says/7033565/Downing-Could-Be-A-Moneyball-Buy

Contribution of 10-15 Goals+Assists more than enough to justify his fee...
People never gonna stop moaning about the fee, no matter whom we sign..

he has only ever scored 30 goals in the whole of his career and you expect 10-15 out of him next season .

Hardly misses a game and puts in more crosses than anyone else in the league. We needed a winger and we got one who will help Carrol no end to score goals.

We need a winger to open up the space in the middle more than putting crosses for Carroll... Hopefully he can help us to do that... Finally we got someone who can give solid performance in the in the wings(Hopefully). Who's Next

Downing the dumps - what's the Mata ?
mixed emotions for me ...were not sure how much weve paid for a start are we. If it's 20 Mill then I'm gutted if it's 15 then I can live with it. Felt Mata would offer us more flair personally but what do I know...
John Barnes raved about Downing on LFCtv last week , so hopefully the lad could be the missing link n I just haven't seen it yet , natural left footer n gonna put the ball on Carroll's massive heed that's for sure.
So in Kenny n John Barnes I trust , I'll reserve judgement til I see him in action , and one things for sure were moving forwards under KD , DC and FSG.
Bring on the season.

Every one love to have Mata.. We do not know what the situation is(May be dunk knows). Never know how he is going to adopt.
He will be better than the Bosman signings & Dead woods.Jovanovic , Cole & El zhar who can play on the wings costing around 10 miilion in wages. 20M wont be a big money if we can get rid off those SO CALLED WINGERSSSSSSSSSSSSSS..
I wonder why we have Friendlies with Galatassary & Valencia????? Any possible Transfer business????

If downing stays fit, then he'll be one of the best wingers in epl.
And about the price aston villa payed 12mill, when he was on clutches waking on one leg.
Now he was their best player last season. So that justifies the price.

Seriously I don't care too much about the transfer fee. Let it be the worry of John Henry and FSG. Since Liverpool goes all out to get him at whatever the price , that shows that Downing do have something special in him that impress King Kenny , Damien Comolli and John Henry saw in him. The trio are doing their job at the getting the right player for the club. So we as the supporter of Liverpool FC should do our job by supporting them instead of moaning about the transfer fee or which other player is better. I dare say Juan Mata is an equal option to Stewart Downing but have he ever come out and say that he wants to join us. There are not even rumours about we are bidding for him at all. It was just the opposite to Stewart Downing. So once the signing is done , we should just move on and go to other problem areas. At the same time get rid of the deadwoods.
