Who the *u*k is Gary Hooper

TalkSport understand we are going in for the Celtic centre forward. If that is the ambition of FSG, we are in the sh!!te

Phil

My point was, we spent more than 30m under Kenny. Regardless of how much we recouped, we still spent all that money (LFC MONEY) on garbage.

So let's say hypothectically Liverpool FC sold players to the value of £100million and then bought players of the value of £50million,you'd be happy as you bought/spent £50million on players regardless off the fact that sales of talent was twice the amount

Zenny, according to ESPN (see fragment below) and other sources such as the guardian, John Henry himself stipulated that he didn't care what we spent on Carroll as long as Chelsea paid 15 Mill more for Torres. Its therefore a bit of a stretch to blame Dalglish or Comolli for overpaying for him. Buying AC was not a mistake but paying 35 million for him was a catastrophic error. John Henry's error.



John W Henry has explained Liverpool's decision to spend a British record transfer fee on Andy Carroll, revealing he strictly stipulated that the Reds pay £15 million less than they received for Fernando Torres.

===================================================================================
Dalglish spent 30m-35m in two transfer windows. We finished 8th., and got to 2 cup finals.
Brendan's spent 20m in one transfer window.

I'm not sure how anybody's managing to imply already that Brendan's been spending the money better. We;ve got 6 points from 7 games. Borini's had 12 hours of football, scored 1 goal, and no assists, which, for a striker ("there's goals in him" could be a problem.

I think maybe we need to stop scapegoating individual players and ask ourselves whether we've been giving managers enough time. This is our fourth manager in 3 years.

I'm more than happy to give Brendan time, because unlike some others who wanted previious managers sacked, I believe in it as a matter of principle, and not just when he does things I want, or buys players I approve of. So unlike others with previous managers, I won’t be getting on Borini’s back, or Brendan’s back, because these things take time

But in the meantime, let's stop talking sheite about individual players. A couple of years ago it was Lucas, now it's anybody Kenny bought, apart from Suarez.

Brendan isn't being hampered by anything Kenny did.
He got 20m, which is pretty reasonable for his first transfer window, and the only player of Kenny's he uses every week is Suarez, who is the one player that's saving his ^rse, at the moment, by playing out of his skin.

I'm sick of the snobbery that exists whereby people determine whether a player is good or bad based entirely on the club/division he's in.

He's a striker that scores plenty of goals. We currently don't have one. It makes perfect sense.

This

to the people judging him because he plays for a Scottish team.......Just look at Jelavic. Some of you lot never learn

I saw him playing against HJK Helsinki in C.L qualifications, and remember thinking he's the worst player on the pitch..
