The only person complaining is you. about others being naieve because they have a different view from you.

Liverpool were willing to pay £15 million for Sturridge the day the Dempsey deal fell through so money wasn't the problem.

But hey dont let facts get in the way of any of your negative posts.

I'm tipping with Dempsey they didn't want to pay the money for a player who is 29 years of age! The owners and club have stated all along that their intention is to build a side for the future by getting young players and developing them!

I would have liked Dempsey and was disappointed when they didn't get him but do you think he would have made us top 4 this season?

I personally don't think he would have. Yes he would have helped but I don't think the club is at the stage where one or two short term signings will bring us our long awaited title and maybe that's why they didn't fork out the cash!

In any case Dempsey would have been better than not having anybody, not sure he can consistently be a +20 goals scorer, but would have been worth the risk at 5-6m. But that's'the past now and the only positive is that they will have to show some action next Jan, unlike last Jan.

What I read (not sure if it's true) BR wanted Sturridge on loan and not buy. He was not sure and I suppose did not want to take a risk.

We'll probably still manage to finish outside the top 4 with 19 Norwich's wink

I read that it was the other way round. We wanted to buy him but chelsea only wanted to loan him out.
