KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Borini's a done deal for £10 million

some simialrites with suarez style of play in that he is a terrier and never gives up , meanders his way trhough defenders ,you can see that clearly in some of youtube clips online . Having 2 similar strikers may work very well or not at all lets hope its the former .

I thought it was 13m euros, not pounds?

I don't think either of them are up to it anymore, I'm afraid.

Yes it is 13m euros which is just over £10m

what is it in dollarS

from the articles read looks good. Defends from the top and had highest tackle count in attackers for Roma, plays across top 3, pacey and likes to finish, was rated by Chelsea and offered new contract but wanted to play so this is why he signed for Parma due to Torres and Drogba, finished 2nd top scorer for Roma and this with his defensive play is why he got into Euro squad ahead of other more hosehold names. Looks like he might be a winner plus has had 4 years experience playing in our leagues and climates so less adjusting to do

Pretty happy with this signing from what has been said, youtube clips etc.
I'll admit I haven't seen much of him but seems a decent player that can play all across a top three, puts in the effort, has a bit of pace and can finish. Sounds like what we need if we're to be playing the 433 that's been mentioned. Would love to see him play highest up the pitch with Suarez and Gaston Ramirez (if that deal comes through) left and right respectively. It would be nice to see them all interchanging. I think we're desperately missing a Silva-esque play maker and would love for Ramirez to be that man. Suarez is a definite goal scorer when he's got a decent playmaker around him. Look at Uruguay for example, he scores goals for fun. Again, at Ajax he scored goals like no other. It's in him, he just can't do EVERYTHING himself.
Frankly I like big Andy and think he will become a decent player but I just don't see him fitting this mould and I would rather he be sold than kept and wasted. Obviously I could be wrong and I guess we will see if he's still around come the pre season games.
For me, Joe Cole and Aquilani must stay. They'll be perfect pieces to this pass and move style and I'd love to see them both get a chance under Brendan.
My ideal end to this transfer window would be to get Ramirez in as well as Miguel Veloso (cover for Lucas) and offload Charlie Adam, Maxi Rodriguez and Jay Spearing.
I still think Henderson could do a job and want to see him get a chance in the new style.
Ideally I'd like to see Suso and Sterling get some decent game time this season, to a lesser extent Coady and Morgan.
If these rumours about Reina and Lloris are true I think it'd be a fantastic switch, as much as I love Reina, wait and see I guess.
Thinking/wishing we'll like up like this:
_____________________Reina/Lloris
_______________Skrtel___________Agger
Johnson_______________Lucas___________________Enrique
_______________Gerrard______Aquilani
Ramirez_____________________________________Suarez
______________________Borini

Subs:
Doni
Kelly
Coates
Veloso
Cole
Bellamy
Carroll

Reserves:
Suso
Coady
Sterling
Morgan
Downing
Henderson
Shelvey
Robinson
Carragher

veloso already signed for someone last week. Need another striker to play in the middle of the 3. Luis plays best as part of a 3 man attack but not down the middle

Welcome to LFC, Fabio!

Fantastic! Hope he fits right in.
