Really? a fucking political discussion in the transfer thread? Now I've seen everything.

 

Well this thread has lurched from the odd to the absurd over 450 pages. We've ranted and raved over transfers that haven't even happened so it's only logical we start discussing totally unrelated bollocks. But i will add being a man's man i will draw the line at moisturisers and waxing.

We had a poll the other day for the best ever thread on the forum. Surely this must be a serious contender for worst? It's an aching monstrosity and the sooner it's buried deep beneath wherever they dispose of long term nuclear waste the better for all of humankind.

Am still going to cling to the small chance Kun loves us and might want to come here, great player.

 

For those that missed his goal in the opening copa match, pure brilliance. Argentina had looked lost for most of the game, and then this out of nowhere just after he came on :

Sid Lowe does not know who Kenny Dalglish is looking at.

 

He can comment on Aguero not going to Liverpool because of his links over there but there's absolutely no chance he knows what kind of player we're targeting.

 

Seems like a logical conclusion to come to when you look at who we've targeted and spent months already chasing since the window closed. And, really, he's only repeating what well respected Liverpool based journo's have already said.

 

I think the most interesting thing he said is that we wouldn't be able to afford him. Which kind of puts an end to that whole 'he can be got for £18m' bollocks that was going around for a while there.

There isn't much difference between £22m and £18m to be honest. It's hardly as if the fees are miles apart, I think what Sid Lowe is implying is that we don't have much money to splash out on top players.
