KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Willan wanted to join Liverpool

A reliable source is saying we would not match the fee that Spurs have bid and missed him by 3 Million, We will probably never get the truth as Willain will not sign for Spurs saying how much he really wanted to join Liverpool.

I am very concerned on our cheap skate dealings when Tottenham have already more than covered Bale going and what if they keep him as well.

We have sold loads of players and not replaced them however poor people say they were and yet we had a paper thin squad according to BR last year waht is going on ?

If Willian did not want to sign for Spurs he could quite easily turn them down so that is false.

I reckon Spurs gave him a greater weekly salary ie 150K per week and that is what has turned his head, not how much we were prepared to pay Anzhi.

either way if he joins, he is a Spurs player and from that point on we should not discuss him or the whys and whys nots,

Fsg wish to save the mulah...

Br can spend the money he has brought in from players sold ...

Fsg r not allowing br to build the team/squad and let him sign the players he needs/wants cuzz they do not want to release the ££ and pay the asking price for top quality players...

Br must b pulling his facking hair out...

Who will leave lfc 1st... Br or fsg??

Really ? Clint Dempsey remind you of anything ? Seriously we need to stop defending poor club management the usual is we are not in the Champions league sorry did Spurs qualify ?

Spurs have gone up 3 levels this summer without Bale we have gone backward on squad depth wether you rate what we had or not.

By all accounts FSG were prepared to spend the money to sign Willian however our transfer committee (which includes BR) decided the deal did not represent good value for money to match the Spurs bid.

If so I commend then for backing out of the transfer, Kenny and Comolli sign Downing, Carroll, Adam on huge wages and transfer fee;s.

Its good to see we are being a bit more savy in the transfer market.

I do agree with you to some degree and you have an opinion and stick with it fair play.

I just feel we are being led up the garden path to a degree and left behind on the way.

Fsg using the same pr as the arsenal owner...wen it comes to signing players..

Show the fans that the owners r trying to sign quality players by making huge bids and getting out bid...

Both club owners are doing a lot of barking, without any bite at the moment and the transfer window will b closing soon

The difference that we are unwilling to pay at the moment is apparently around 3 million...if that is the case, i believe it's game on. I am hoping we can meet halfway.

at 30 million +, i don't think it's good value either. for that we could buy 3 players at coutinho level hoping that one of them works out and allowing us to sell on the two duds.

before the summer started i don't recall a single poster saying that we should spend over £30m on willian as our no.1 target. i'm not convinced that he's worth the money.

Tottenham got played! I wonder what they are paying him?
