KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Siggy gone to Spurs for €10m

I don't think we missed out at all. I think we got side tracked,
we ended the season needing a striker a winger and cover
for Lucas, not another midfielder..

I wouldn't count on it. Half of the managers in europe turned their nose up at coming to LFC - our stock is at an all time low so I expect we'll struggle to attract players as well.

As for not needing another central midfielder.....that's nonsense. We've got 1 midfielder in his twilight years and 1 coming back from a serious injury. The rest of them should be playing in league 1. We are desperate for a decent central midfielder or 2 (depending on how BR sets his team up)

spurs have offered more money to hoffenheim and have offered him 70K plus in wages and for a player like sigurdsson thats too much

"I don't want to join Swansea as they have no manager". Joins Spurs with no manager.

all down to money nothing more nothing less , yes sigurdsson is a decent young player but he is no messi or ronaldo and 70K a week for a player who has potential and thats it sorry the club are right on this one .

i don't think they think their right i think they just can't compete with spurs

We can compete with spurs in everyway except location. Sure we've had a couple of bad years, but before that they weren't even a threat. We've had a time of transition when we had Roy under the control of tweddle dee and tweddle dum, then we had Kenny wanting to make his return, the poor fella was over his head. The problem is that Kenny blew a really nice kitty, but who knows, they actually could have been crap because of his tactics.

Because of poor choices from tweddle dee and tweddle dum and from supporter pressure, we've taken two steps back, now hopefully Rogers will help us take those steps forward, and if he gets us playing like Swansea then I can see that happening. We just need to ignore the media because they seem like they're against us ATM, and we just need a few smart signings.

I'm sure Rodgers wouldn't let Siggy go to spurs unless he had a few other options.I would like him to join us, and he might yet, but there are a lot of decent attacking mids out there. Wish we could get Allen though.

If the only reason he is going to Spurs is money then I doubt he has ambition! They have no coach for a start so he has no idea what style they will be playing and whether he will fit in to that style either! At at LFC he knows the manager and what style he plays and of has listened to anything that our owners and manager says then he should know that we as a club have ambition.
If money is his only concern yen I don't want him here either but we don't know how official this all is yet so we shouldn't really be concerned. If he doesn't end up here then so be it and I'm sure see will find someone who does want to be here.

Spurs have a manager. The public just hasn't been told who yet. There is no way Bale would sign a new contract, or Siggy would go there unless they had someone in place. You'll see, probably on the 1st.

Saw this morning that AVB will make Moutinho his first signing for £32m at Spurs once Modric leaves. Now I know it's only paper talk but where would that leave Siggy? It all seems a bit strange. Still, I'm not that bothered either way. Can't believe a player like Siggy has a 16 page thread about him! He ain't that good.
