KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Report: Comolli didn't want 'Buy British' policy

The more you hear about all this the more disturbing it seems that Dalglish has kept his job, I think more will come out as we go along regarding some of the things which have gone on.

crap story from a crap site!

where is columbo?

sadly i wouldnt trust him

im here wondering how did this source become a crap site, ive seen other threads fill with opinions and controversy from this same site. i have one question without this site making reference to kenny's buy british players policy dont we all came to this conclusion before, that its his idea that he likes the british home grown talent, so this article didnt bring something we already didnt know. i believe the signings were kenny's idea the price paid for them however was solely commolli's doing

Every team now needs British players. Personally i think the owners insisted we target them.

With the new rules coming in and a distinct lack of British talent I think we went early and went big.

I think we have addressed the British players rule now though, so hopefully we can look abroad this summer for new players.

Whilst other teams need to sort out their stuff out, or get hit with the new rules that should come in to action.

Get in early is clearly a good idea when there is so little options around though...

Taking that into account. Maybe Stat Man just failed at picking the best of the British talent. I can't think of much else out there though that was available apart from Zaha and Ox Chamberlain.

Maybe Stat man just had a problem with the British Policy, and he was just sacked for that. Do as your told or get lost.

Who knows..

i think we already have that covered with the youth players like Flano, Kelly and many others, the whole youth is full of English players.

this news just confirms what everyone already suspected Kenny asked for the Brits.

Comolli is still responsible for paying over 70m for Carroll Downing and Hendo (unless he was mandated)

u can smell the bull crap a mile off. none of that has come from commoli himself. theres no quotations and no source

Liverpool always put on a "you can not bad mouth the club clause" when they let somebody go. What I don't understand is having a D of F and the manager still making all the decisions on who we sign. Surly it should be a case of kenny saying "I want a big centre half" and commoli finding the best. Maybe the owners were a bit pived that kenny WAS allowed to get his way with downing carroll and Henderson. I think commoli was like a little rabbit caught in the head lights when the most famous man of the most famous british club came back. Basicly he didn't know how to say NO to kenny and the owners felt they have to have someone stronger in that position. Kenny is no genius in the Market. For gods sake he signned David speedy years ago

please don't forget Jimmy carter and guivarch (the french striker for newcastle)
