lfc no longer suuck c0ck for players. i.e. our reputation for shovelling over money got destroyed in this window. id say everyone and their granny was trying to take us for a ride. it idnt happen, bot once.

i dont give a shiit about dempsey, i dont rate american players in the PL anyway and six million was over the odds for him. in fact i bet we would have had to pay ten because fulham were pissd off with us etc etc. fck them. and fck dempsey.

i cant believe how much whinging there is on the forum over today. christ almighty.

Personally it's not about dempsey, the issue is more of the lack of quality cover in the squad when we get a few injuries that is going to be the problem!

Other problem is scoring goals...cant really regard any of our front line as a good finisher who is going to score 15-20 a season. I dont think Dempsey would do this either so wasn't as bothered as most that we didnt sign him but he would have atleast pitched in with a few but the point is we dont have that 15-20 goal a season player we badly need and have done for quite some time.

Dempsey could have covered all the 4 forward positions, he can run, he can control, he can pass and he can score that is why he was important. and Spurs got him for only 6m

and we want to ALSO get Sturridg who can play 3 forward positions

getting no one was the problem

Overall window was positive but everyone of us and our dogs knew we needed a fking quality finisher, what does fsg do? They just crawl back into their palaces in boston without giving the funds to buy the striker we need. Our season is over before it begin as SUarez will continue to miss goals while Reina continues to makes mistakes. Depressing shet.

Yeah, £ 23 M for Henderson, £ 21 M for Downing, £ 35 M for Carroll and NOT £ 7 M for Dempsey?? Where lies the logic in that?

The only thing I can think of is we didn't have or didn't want to splash out any dough!

Bang on mate, it's disheartening seeing people talk like this. We offered £3million after Villa's 6 was turned down. So clearly Brendan was out to get a bargain if he could, if not wouldn't be splashing the cash.

Have people forgotten that we have spent money, including a loan deal for a German player of the year and Real madrid midfielder, and what looks like a top quality long term purchase in Allen. We've just gotten a load of shiiiite of the wage bill too, January isn't far away. BR will be looking closely and if we need new players, he will be taking our more filled than normal pockets and buying players in the next window. Bunch of cry babies on here, look forward to them moaning if and when we get a good run of results. (I personally think we already have).

I for one, do not want LFC to be joining the likes of City, PSG and Chelski, throwing billions at petulant players in the hopes of winning competitions. I think BR and FSG are doing it the right way.

Also, if FSG were the 'asset strippers' that people make them out to be, or looking to raise some cash for themselves, why didn't we sell out some of our prized players for big money like we could of? Agger, Skittles, Suarez?

Oh that's right, because they are working in the best interests of the club.

Only some of you can't see that because we didn't spend £100million in the transfer window.

I tell you what, if you haven't already seen it, check out the highlights of Chelsea's game last night to see what a few £20m+ signings on the pitch at the same time can do for you against just a well organised Athletico team.

I prefer the way we are going about things, personally.

to paraphrase what carheex said on another thread. o one gave a shiit about having clint dempsey at the cluba few months ago. now all of a sudden he was the lynch pin of our season. im truly baffled.


Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.
