Only an idiot would want a player just for set pieces, however, we do not have any good set piece taker. I don't remember when we last scored from a set piece and most of our corners are just wasteful. We are though experts in conceding from them

And what if he's right and the right player isn't out there? After all, as I've said many times, he's a lot closer to the market than any of us and where as it might be hard for us to imagine, it could be very true. Also, just ask yourself why nothing big has gone down until now and don't come back with the usual excuse that the others are stronger.

Only an idiot would want a player just for set pieces ? All I am saying is...Kenneth Mathieson Dalglish...and a certain Charlie Adam, your completely right tho only an idiot would sign someone just for set pieces and corners.

I think you are mistaken there, however wise you are. It is Fergie who said that Adam's set pieces are worth 10m or what we paid for him, not Kenneth Mathieson Dalglish who is not an idiot in my books.

I am not sure what you mean by big, I don't think we would be looking for players above 35m and a few players have gone for around 25m, basically our bracket if we have about 40m to spend on a couple of players. United will go for Griezman, but he is going to cost a bomb they probably cannot afford now after their summer purchases, Chelsea has a very strong bench with the likes of Fabregas and Pedro on it with no European football, City have just brought in a super star + Pep is still trying to find his way in this new league and they probably overspent last summer. We must be the only team in the top 6 who should have money to spend as we didn't in the summer. Even Everton are taking risks buying.

I know Fergie said what he said but are you seriously telling me Charlie Adam brought anything else to the table other than set pieces, We all know how incompetent Dalglish was as a manager but Fergie lured Dalglish in by saying what he did and what's more duped him into paying over the odds for him to boot, Fergie knew full well Dalglish was ripe for a sting and he never let him down and fell for it.

What I mean by big is the other top 6 sides. And how is £35m to £40m not big?

You're right that Utd will yet again p!ss a load of money away in the summer as that's what Maureen does. Chelsea have a strong bench, correct. City's superstar I'm assuming is Jesus who was bought in the summer. Let me remind you that all those teams in the top 6 apart from Spurs (who also haven't bought anyone) are richer than us so how you can say we'll be the only ones with money to spare is beyond me?

They will all have no doubt been looking to strengthen in this window too (just because they're strong doesn't mean they don't want to get stronger) and with their resources, why have they yet to do any business? I'll tell you why, because Chelsea bid £27m for Franck Kessie from Atalanta. Yes that well know 19 year old who's done nothing but well for his club yet £27m still isn't enough to prise him away in January. We were also linked to him so maybe a bid of around £35m would be enough?

I think you don't know what you want.You keep saying you want our managers to take the cups seriously, no? KD took the cups seriously, went to 2 finals and won one, the last trophy we won by the way. You just like spreading your bile here to annoy everybody, looks like getting banned doesn't change anything.
