Who knows really? Until he goes to a bigger club, we will only be able to guess.
I Like him personally, and I like the idea of having a well balanced midfielder who can control a game in the team. He showed our midfield how to play last season to a certain extent, he was very good.
15mil is very expensive, but he's british. Plus I like Allen more than I did Jones last season, and look at how much he went for. At the end of the day, if you want a player, and the club who owns the players doesn't really want to sell, then they have the right to put whatever price they want on him.
I like the idea of getting him for 10mil plus 5mil add ons depending on how he goes.

Yeah, but I gotta admit that I was impressed with Adam when he played us with Blackpool. I think that I'm one of the few that still have a bit of hope in him. Hendo's lucky, because he can use he age as an excuse. It's spearing who I want gone.

He would definitely be an improvement on what we already have and the idea of £10 million plus add ons sounds a bit more realistic.
It seems to have gone quiet on the Dempsey front but I read somewhere that the transfer window doesn't close until 31st August.
I have a terrible felling we may lose Suarez or Agger by then. I hope not.
Personally I would take the money for Skrtel.

I think Adam will be good for a team that will suit him, but will we get the best out of him with BR style football? Won't he be too tempted to try his 'hollywood' balls too often. I think hendo will stay because like you say he's young, he was a big investment, more likely to fit BR's style. Also whilst im with you on wanting spearing out the door, unless we sign someone for it, he's the only backup to the break up play role Lucas does. And BR loves a player to sit just in front of the 2 centre backs. I think he will see Spearing as the back up to that spot for the next season.

Sorry to change the subject but I'd say the same regarding Andy Carroll, I really rate him and think he's more than capable of 20 goals a season in a team playing to his strengths. It'll be a shame if we get rid and he goes on to be a success somewhere but I understand Brendan Rogers moving him out if he doesn't fit the system and even more so if he has to raise funds.
