What i am happy about is the fact that this shows FSG have backed their man and said "screw the committee, if BR wants him, lets go all out and get this kid."
How on earth does this show that? Sorry but that's quite simply making stuff up or putting your own interpretation on it, one which funnily enough seems to back up your own glowing opinion of FSG. All they've apparently done is sanction a signing after weeks of haggling, we've been expecting this signing for at least fortnight and there's nothing to indicated that they've suddenly thrown caution to the wind and are ready to back Rodgers with transfer funds. You paint quite a picture Marko.
Seems John Henry and Tom Werner were convinced by BR's arguments during the weekend.
The only convincing they should have needed was seeing the first 45mins against Villa.
Sure it boosts our chances which i think were pretty good anyway, buy we want to make sure. The only way to do that is by going all out and getting the players we need. I am sure both FSG and BR recognize this.
What exactly makes you so sure? The teams around us are spending (or have spent massively in the summer) and there's no way we can be sure that FSG recognise the need to strengthen the team immediately (in order to secure a top four spot) until we secure more signings.
