These statements by Stevie and BR aren't coincidence, sounds like them and half the club are pis*ed off with FSG's short sightedness.

Hope we get a fan reaction (if nothing is salvaged by the end of the window) more negative than the last one!



Hang on....you're happy to discard the idea that we offered him £120k but happy to accept the idea that we only offered him £65k? How do you choose which stories to believe?

Did we ever believe FSG would pay the kind of wages this guy would settle for? There was never a chance of this signing so why raise eyebrows now? FSG will not sanction the signing of any proven quality because they only want to pay buttons for young 'potentials' in the foolhardy belief that they'll all come good, wonder how long it'll take them to discover that football is a different game from baseball?

I didn't think for one second we would get him. But noises were coming from Anfield that we were trying to sign him. When news/rumours come out that we were happy to sign him on the cheap AND try to make him one of our LOWEST paid players then you just know that FSG had no real intention of making the deal happen - they were only interested in trying to make it look we did our best but lost out to another team. When the fans start complaining about lack of quality signings, they can now say, "oh, but we tried to sign Sneijder".
