They're cheaper and command less wages, that's pretty much it.

nailed it

they would rather buy a player for 50m and give him 10k a week then buy a player for 10m and give him 150k a week . they look at the fee and the wages as a whole

That's a simplistic argument. Chelski bought Torres from the mighty LFC he did not do very spectacularly for them did he? An inform Jay Rodriguez is a creative, quick thinking player with excellent movement that makes things happen. He has loads of potential and would be a clever buy. That said, I would of course love if we were also looking at some like Marco Reus but just throwing the big names around is not necessarily going to make it happen.

May be better if we make a few more buys but save some money for January. That way we see how all these new players work out. Then we can tell what works and what doesnt and see what positions we need to buy in Jan.

Stop making sense. Imagine the uproar here if every penny isn't spent !

Rodgers seems to be building a machine based on a 4-3-3 formation capable of scoring from anywhere midfield down and generally causing all sorts of problems for the opposition. I don't think he is looking at throwing the money on one big forward signing for example but rather a number of good versatile players that he can drill on his system. He will look at getting these players as soon as possible so the work of building the team can begin. I like the fact that he is looking to build a team instead of going with a mega signing, don't these mercenaries just start looking for greener pastures with the higher paycheck's as soon as they can.

That's been my reading of it too Sahl, also makes the Bony transfer more believable.

Prices do seem to be averaging at the 20 million bracket which I think buys us pretty decent quality.

Can 10 million
Markovic 20 million
Lallana 25 million
Lambert 8 million

Suarez 75 million

Net spend: -12 million.

Not bad so far. I expect to see us buy a couple of defenders and maybe another striker. We could look a more complete team than we have been in years.

Just loosely referring to the some higher quality names linked e.g. Moreno, Bony. The average for the above 4 players mentioned would be 15.75 million. Still a lot of moolah left for quality signings and getting some depth to the team.
