the most disappointing thing is being out bid for a player by aston villa ffs.
and haggling over a difference of £1m/£2m for a player who is an absolute bargain at £6m who wanted to be at anfield.
especially when they appointed daglish / commoli, sanctioned all their over priced deals and probably had to cough up some serious cash to kick them out and pay their compensation fee's.

You dont know what went on in the negotiations involving Dempsey's transfer so you are guessing at what they were asking from us.
Rant all you like but ignore the fact we brought in 5 players and spent £30million. how much did we make back? and whats fsg overall net spend.this was a wage cutting summer,with no ambition to break into top 4. if we had that ambition we would have more than 1 proven striker, simple as that. as for dempsey, like come on now. guessing??? its not a hard guess really is it.

Werner: "We can compete financially with anyone". [oops]. Even the Echo tonight spelled it out that we were unlikely to find the money for Dempsey. Yet we sold Adam today?
All FSG have done is reduced the wage bill and made the manager THEY put in place look like a c*nt.
If you lot still believe in FSG then god help you.

The first teams been improved this summer but it's now clear the owners simply won't put in the money to get us back into the CL and amongst the elite.
As mentioned, the worrying thing is how well Spurs did, though there net spend is probably less than ours.
BR has a mammoth task ahead of him. The 2 absolute crazy decisions have to be not stumping up the money for Dempsey (American owners for Gods sake) and loaning Carrol out before getting a replacement in.
Can't believe Southampton got Ramirez too...

It's doesnt really inspire competition for places though does it...
I hope it works out for us, If we are 8th come Christmas I'll be happy.

I'm wondering if we blew it by announcing our intentions to sign a few players today - we should have kept quiet and done the business. We sort of let people know we're coming don't we? KP, do you seriously think that is the reason we signed no one?

1 week ago we were all excited about a young squad almost beating the champions, since then we have Assaidi, Sahin and that young Yesil lad who's *apparantly* one of the next big things to come from Bundesliga.. Now all of a sudden were back to square one? Moaning about the fact we finally got rid of dead wood and fair enough we probably should have spent but as someone said we spent about 30 million this summer in all and only got back around 5 or 6 million so its not all bad we have a winger now in Raheem and surely Suarez, Borini, Assaidi, Sahin and Gerrard can come up with a few goals aswel. Were absolutely FCUKED if we get injuries though...
