I don't think I do get it Marko, I must be missing something in all this.


That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

Whether our beliefs are siding towards the legions of Doom or if your just drifting happily down De Nile, we can all agree that was a shitt joke.

You say his net spend is one of the highest. That means phuck all as he has had to build a squad of players, not add quality to an existing team like any other team (apart from Sunderland)

£100 Mill is enough to buy just 3 (possibly 4) Top 4 players.



BR had no choice but to leave Swansea, they didn't want him, since he left, Laudrup has got them in to Europe, won a cup and sold nearly all of Rodgers' best players. It says a lot.

As to not having a lot of freedom, his first signings were Allen and Borini and from what I heard he wanted a lot more until FSG blocked his requests and with good reason.

We have one of the highest spends in the league, but have nothing to show for it, how does that mean [oops] all, it says a lot to me. No, he could have added quality to the existing team he chose not to, he came in all guns blazing wanting to get rid of everyone associated with the club beforehand, didn't give anyone a chance and wanted to re-model the club on his fake 180 page document including restructuring the academy to his shitty tactics and ideas.

100m is enough to build a top 4 squad, taking transfers other Premier League clubs have made over the last 2 seasons you can easily create one, added to what we had before. Here's mine based on clubs below us -

Reina
Butland - 3.5m
Enrique
Rat - Free
Agger
Lovren - 8m
Skrtel
Toure - Free
Wilson
Johnson
N.Clyne - 3m
Spearing
Lucas
Wanyama -12.5m
Gerrard
Henderson
Downing
Redmond - 2m
Bentley - Free
Sterling
Shelvey
Michu - 2.2m
Dempsey - 7m
Benteke - 8m
Suarez

Total spend - 46.5m

I'm not drawing swords with you over BR mate. I think he's a bad manager for us for more than one reason. I really think he is more of a 'Yes' man than a manager and because of that we will never agree on where his responsibilities lie.

With regards to your figures above. According to this, Stoke and Villa have had more investment than us over the last 5 years.

http://www.transferleague.co.uk/league-tables/transfer-league-table-last-five-seasons.html

If you are on about BR's £100 mill over the last 2 seasons. It appears you are correct. But with that he has bought 12 players to replace 25.

That means on average he's spent just over £8 Mill on each player.


To put it into comparison with Spurs. They have spent cira £100 mill on 7 players to replace 13 players.

An average spend of £14 Mill a player !!

That's why I'm saying that £100 Mill to do the job of rebuilding our squad is not enough for top four.

I've already proven that we could have built a top 4 challenging squad for less than what Rodgers spent.

A Forest in Nottingham. .... It's not hard really.

Nottingham Forest. For all you FSG sycophants who only popped up a year or 2 ago look the club up.

Forests fate is our destiny under FSG hence the analogy of be shafted !

And no, I'm not embarrassed at all. I don't have to justify myself to anyone.

Who am I? I'm Truered and I like the car !
