Really? So Ter Stegen would have left Barcelona where he was first choice to join a Liverpool side not in Europe? (Based on last Summer when we were interested)

You can't say we didn't sign a first choice Barcelona player because we didn't pay the money or wages, no player in their right mind would swap first choice football for Barca for Liverpool.

And you shouldn't get a transfer to our club on the strength of your past reputation.

He was on the wain in his last season at City, a disaster at the euros and the less said about his spell in Italy the better.

Mignolet had a strong finish to the season and another goalie is not our most pressing need,

I actually agree that a goalkeeper isn't our most pressing need but I still think you are wrong on Hart.

It's probably because he's English and its easy to bash our own players and praise an unknown foreign one instead.

I actually think it's just the opposite Chris.

I think in many cases we hugely overrate English players and they tend to cost huge sums of money.

Agree to some extent and for sure English players cost a premium. There does however appear to a be a fascination with signing foreign players that we know little about as oppose to proven English players, I guess it's the excitement factor.

Anyway, we'll agree to disagree on Joe Hart, I think he's a good goalkeeper, but at the same point I'm not desperate to sign him as there are higher priority positions in my opinion.
