KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum How do you feel about the transfer business so far /

Really?

We've spent so much cash this summer it's not even funny.
Maybe it's Rodgers who doesn't see any value in the market as far as strikers go this summer - that or he doesn't fancy any of the realistic targets.

FSG have been pretty decent this summer - whether you agree with the players bought in or not, the money has been there. Javier Manquillo will have his medical today by all accounts also.

Ha, ha, I see you’re finally converted Ninja, that nails both Ayre and FSG to a tee!

When I say found out, I'm meaning that this is the first season that FSG committee (post Comolli) signings will have to make an impact. My feeling is that we where more dependent on Saurez more than Spurs where on Bale and the only signing FSG committee have made that I thought was good enough for CL is Danny. Phil is ok but no better than Yossi. In fact I would say Yossi had more to his game than Phil. But anyway, my point being is that the committee signings have to perform this season as there is no Saurez safety net. Yes, cash has been splashed, and so it should have been as it was well over due. FSG should have stumped up cash in December for a player who might have made the difference for the title. But they didn't. Last summer we where linked with Ericsson and Willian but lost out to teams willing to spend £100 Million and ended up with Aspas and Alberto. Ok, fair enough but this season we are the team with £100 million to spend but what high profile player have we bought? So how do I feel about the transfer business so far... worried. We have bought a lot of question marks to replace a world class talent. Have we even bought anyone with CL experience?

Lazar got cl experience

I see Markovic has CL experience...

I see we have spent £77 Mil so far (plus that kid today)


COMPLETED INS FROM FEE
Emre Can Bayer Leverkusen £8.0m
Adam Lallana Southampton £25.0m
Rickie Lambert Southampton £4.0m
Dejan Lovren Southampton £20.0m
Lazar Markovic Benfica £20.0m
Divock Origi Lille £10.0m
Kevin Stewart Tottenham Hotspur Free


So given the CL money and the new warrior deal (£300 Mil over 6 years) there should easily be another £50 - £60 Mil available?

I am pretty sure there is, as a matter of fact, i don't think we have even started spending the Suarez money yet.
