KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum imo FSG are being honest good custodians of LFC (to date)

WE are screwed..spurs didn't beat us to dempsey we gave him to them.

there is no way we can compete whilst yanks are deciding who's good enough or not.....you do not hear the glazer's saying sorry fergie but 24 m for 29yr old van persie, do you...

fsg are pushing BR around, he should resign. we and he have no hope.FSG will not sign players he wants, simple as. resign now BR , for ur ownsake.

can we really complain about money being spent after kenny and comolli killed us.

Exactly, the owners got fecked last summer its incredible how much money was wasted. This year they're having non of it and i cant really blame them for it. Look, im sure many of us were excited to get Carroll, Adam and Downing in and at the time we never could have known they were gonna be this much of a waste.

We live we learn.

right so the owners make a mistake in their first two years and we should just accept now that LFC managers cannot sign players they want(and for only 6m) because the owners think it would just cement mid-table..what kind of mental club are we becoming.
Resign BR, the fans seem to be eating this BS the owners are feeding them...the club is doomed.

I also think £11 mill for Boroni, and £15 mill on Alan was a lot to pay, and this to me shows that they have backed the manager.

I am a little disappointed that the budget was capped at £20 million net, because I thought that with the wage bill being cut it would free up some money. That being said, there could still be money available in January.

Regarding Dempsey, I'm disappointed that we didn't capture him, in light of being weak in attack and Gerrard looking off. In perspective Dempsey would have likely been played in the same position as SG, and that means its only an issue due to his current form. Due to the playing position, I didn't see the point in buying Dempsey so everyone being upset about it is just overreacting.

The one that got me was due to the press conference when BR smirked when asked about Walcott. It was just a result of trying to keep a straight face, but due to the contract issues I actually convinced myself that it was a possible deal.
Although I know how frustrating he is and can be very wasteful I thought he would fit in perfectly. He played as a forward earlier in he career, he has pace to unnerve defenders and is capable of scoring / creating goals. Not to mention he has red blood.

I am hoping that Assaidi will hit the ground running when given the opportunity otherwise its going to be a tough four months.


Edit: I don't like this Dempsey fan club. Other that last years form nobody would care about him. What if it was just a hot year? We will see how he fits in a spurs, but the love he is getting is ridiculous.

I think cutting the wage bill did free up funds because was it mentioned somewhere that the transfer budget was fees plus wages? In effect selling Kuyt et al reduced the wages enough to spend 30mil on fees this window. One of the main issues is that apparently BR only realised this too late

BR can't resign - he was our last resort after interviewing every manager in the world this summer!

What do you mean by BR can't resign? England is still a democratic free country isn't it? So if he is unhappy...
