January Transfer Window 2016

[Russ Atmosphere]

Ha ha.

[Ne Moe Imya]

I'm actually not arsed.

 

None of us are huge fans of Ian Ayre, that goes without saying, but I think the options were pretty clear:

 

- Go all out for a big target that we were already looking at for the summer

- Hold up and wait for Origi (and maybe even Sturridge, though that's less likely) and Coutinho to return from injury, save our money for the summer when more players are available.

 

We tried the first one, and it didn't happen.  And none of us were in the room so who can say, but it seems like Shakhtar indicated Teixeira would be available for somewhere around 35m, we offered 29m, then they said they wanted 38m, then they said his buyout is 53m, then they said he's not for sale.

 

Pretty hard to make that happen if so.  If we're not going to get Teixeira or someone at that level (or ter Stegen-level for GK), I'm fine with just waiting to the summer.  We're unlikely to finish top 4 unless we had a huge signing come in and start out on fire, so I'd rather finish 7th with money in the bank for the summer than pay 20m for someone on the Berahino level just to finish 5th or 6th and then go into the summer with little to spend.

[Jairzinho]

Loan Doumbia and give us half a chance of finishing in the top four.

[setreal]

Loan Benteke and give us half a chance of finishing in the top four.

£29m was after add-ons. It's an absolute lottery for a selling club to believe we'll ever end up paying them, as we don't keep our big signings for much more than a season.

[Lee909]

Loan Doumbia and give us half a chance of finishing in the top four.

Agreed,its a no loose. Small loan fee and wages for 6 months. If he rediscovered his old form sogn him if not dump him back to Roma

[Baresi]

Doumbia has signed for Newcastle on loan.

Dont worry,Ayre will have locked up and drove home by 2pm

[Dr. J]

Any dealing with Russian clubs is dirty, it' why we never get anywhere. Chelsea will bung the owner 15m in cash and declare the purchase price 35. Who would know?

 

You can't do business there. I think Klopp decided from the start the best thing he could do was to instill professional fitness levels in these lazy shites and carefully decide who to cull at season's end. Based on the chances he's given people like Lallana, Moreno, Henderson, Milner - fuck, the whole 'first team' basically - no one can complain.

 

We'll be selling before buying.

atleast we will be able to sleep and not wake up to breaking news that we have signed shane long !!

[Boss]

All these players that Rodgers was running around like a mad bull trying to give clubs £20+ million for are now being shipped out on loan. Iturbe, Cheryshev, El Shaarawy, Doumbia, Siqueira. Just shows you what a complete disaster zone that man was in terms of transfers.

[Lee909]

Id have taken a punt on El Shaaraway. Said before we should have offered Milan a swap for Balotelli before he showed them he was shite

Just as well they are Ukrainian then.

Metro are following up reports from Italy that the Reds could swoop for Inter Milan captain Mauro Icardi in a £19million deal today.

The Reds are reportedly admirers of the 22-year-old and are ready to meet Inter Milan’s asking price.

Italian international? Yeah, that'll work.

Leave me out of this. I've got more important things to think about.

Its on

[Iceman]

If we don't sign anyone today I'm putting my knob away.

[Frankenhooker]

Icardi ? May as well try and bring Suarez back, it's about as likely.

[Trumo]

I highly doubt Inter would be prepared to let Icardi leave in this window even though they've just signed Eder from Sampdoria. I do think he's a good player though, sort of a cross between Aguero and the Fernando Torres of 2007 to 2009.

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

TC: here's 19 mill for icardi

IM: Il fucko offo.

[Sputnik1]

Judging by that photo I think Ayre is going to try to convince Lovren to gel his hair up and pretend to be him.

Said Mr. Ayre to Shakhtar's owner.

[Jairzinho]

Why the fuck would Inter sell Icardi for £19m?
