KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum money in reality

guys, I heard we always provide 25m pound to spend on players in every season (that amount includes the urgent signings for january transfer).

this policy begins back in 2001, untill now the policy is still same 25m for every season, the amount of 25m can increase by extra money we have from players sold + contracts from new sponsors, but the money we'll have from those aren't all for signing new players, coz we also need to pay the debts.

so, we definetly have 25m for next season, i know it's not much, but that's the reality money, so rather than dreaming about having Villa (50m)or silva for (35m), better discuss players thats suits our budget for nxt season rite?
mine gonna be:

buy:
van der vaart 12m
elia 8m
agbonlahor 18m

sold:
dossena 3m
babbel 5m
riera 5m

nett = 25m

done.:)

thats a huge loss by the way Emir... if we compare the price tag u put on them with what we paid for them :P

rafa has only been given a lot of money (net spend) one summer and it was 07 when torres, yossi and babel arrived...the latest summer we made a profit so your theory on rafa being given £25m every year is wrong...

and as mujtaba says, the price tag you put on the players is very low. we could at least get the double for riera...

i don't get why anyone would want agbonlahor - he is that bad even his own team's fans boo him regularly ..... he is a headless chicken, bit like milan baros but with less muscle and more pace ...... i doubt he has ever looked up past his own feet in his entire career

he will always score goals because he is extremely selfish and head down straight for the goal every time - but it reminds me of the 80s when the title-winning everton side lost andy gray so bought lineker to replace him - they were nothing like as good after that and lineker was a huge part of the problem as he brought absolutely nothing to the team apart from goal scoring ........ i know that is a huge part of the game but you still need more from a player ie rush scored goals galore but he also made it impossible for the opposition to pass it around at the back - he made teams hurry in possession and so created turnovers

i wasn't comparing lineker with heskey though ....... heskey is not a comparable player and i can't understand your point in even mentioning him

no everton's demise wasn't purely down to lineker but he did weaken them as a team ..... he brought half as much to the team as gray did

scoring goals is not enough on its own to make a striker great or defoe would never have ended up at spuds or pompey ...... the best striker i have ever seen is Dalglish - he did so much more than just scoring goal, God was the same, he provided so much for the team ...... Torres, Drogba, Rooney, for instance, all do much more than just score goals

they won the league with gray - they finished second with lineker - tell me again how the goal hanger was better??? heskey doesnt score goals so is not in this equation at all

you are clueless if you think the only thing fowler brought to the team is goals - i seen him regularly bring others into the play, holding up the ball, passing intelligently, running off the ball to create space ........ perhaps you just don't understand the fact footie is a team game?
