KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum can we challange for the title

I god I think I just had an aneurysm...haha

By the way: according to liverpoolfc.tv Arsenal have today made a bid for Phil Jagielka!

Who cares what other teams are doing, Liverpool is what matters. The Dalglish factor shouldn't be underestimated, it is apparent that Liverpool do need to bolster the squad but I haven't looked forward to a season in many a year and we are in with a shout. So lets enjoy our club playing in the Liverpool way and prove the doubters wrong

Everyones disappointed with the players show the other night,and its true they wernt gr8 we do need to replace some of them kenny will know that obviously,hell also be aware that playing your starting eleven preseason is dicey,just look now at arsenal,walcott and henderson both out injured,maybe kennys canny.

Growler out of interest are you a regular at Anfield ?

Tsss! What a great analysis!

The question in this thread is: Can we challenge? In order to be able to answer that question You need to take into consideration how LFC and other teams perform on the transfer market. If You don't like the sound of that, then simply don't post on this thread.

if KD can sign a center half, left back, another winger and a striker then i think LFC will finish in the top 4 and if we are top of the EPL with abit of luck, next Jan 2012, then i think KD will go out and buy two world class players, to help the team win the EPL.

seriously where do think all this money is coming from , liverpool have already forked out over 100 million , these owners are business men not oil rich arabs or russians , get real mate !!!!

manuare are in the red, they are still looking to sign more players and sell some.

selling players like ie skrtel, johnson, soto, aurelio, maxi, jova, poulson, cole, lucas, ngog, cud bring in about 40m.

four players are needed ie center half, left back, winger, striker.

Have you actually seen how much they spend on one player for the Red Sox? And from those brought in, they have developed them, and are making more from them. If we need them, they get them. But if we need to get rid of, we need to focus on that.
I think that once we get players of our roster, then they will be willing to spend big on transfer fees. Because we'll have less money going out on wages for rubbish players, that they would be open to use it on quality. If we sell, and these are assumptions:

Degan: 30,000 a week (he was free, so his wages are probably high).
Jova: 65,000 a week.
Aqualani: 65,000 a week.
Aurelio: 20,000 a week.
El Zhar: 20,000 a week.
Poulsen: 35,000 a week.
Soto: 30,000 a week.

That's 265,000 a week that can go into 4 or 5 quality players.

Maybe.
Dann: 40,000 a week.
Enrique: 45,000 a week.
Park: 35,000 a week.

There, that is less than half of the wages from our deadwood players. Which might prompt the owners to bring in 1 or 2 quality players in Jan. If they have an eventual sell on value in the future, the owners will see it as a good option. This is hypothetical too.
