      It seems like Negredo is no longer wanted at City -- read a rumor that he won't even make the squad list for the Champions League.  He'd be worth a punt, but probably wouldn't be available to us until deadline day....

      He started last season brilliantly, had quite a lot of goals both domestically and in the Champions League didn't he? But then come the New Year he was pretty woeful.

      He plays better when partnering Aguero, when he got injured Negredo struggled.

      If we can't get any great strikers, we shouldn't spend on anyone just cause we have the money. then I say we ride it out till January. Psg isn't gonna sell cavani now since Zlatan is injured. If we still need a world class attacking threat, then we should try to buy cavani.
      A cheaper option would be Jackson Martinez.
      My dream signing would be Reus but it seems unlikely that BR would go after him.
      Christmas would come early for me if Liverpool get him.

      Depends how much they want to sign Di Maria as they would probably have to make a big money sale to balance the books up to meet FFP (not that they'd get punished anyway though like)

      A cheaper option would be Jackson Martinez.

      Why are people failing to grasp the fact he has signed a new contract this summer which will have included a higher wage and a much higher release clause so in no way shape or form would he be cheaper. Jackson Martinez will be going nowhere this summer.

      Id take Etoo on 2 conditions

      No crazy wage, hes enough money made he can get a decent wage and play for the love of the game before retiring

      And most importantly that we sign someone else to!

      I'm not fussed on his wages Bri as we will pay what we can afford but if we sign him I'd want someone else too just as you say.

      What would annoy me is a man who has come from nothing and earned millions looking for mad money before finishing up, and that's nothing to do with us being involved. Players who have made more money then hey could ever spend need to start leading by example and go and play there final season or 2 for a decent wage and show that they actually love the game. I can see this lad looking for 200mgrand a week or more and wont give the return on it

      We could maybe get him on a pro bono Transfer , John Henry would love that idea . ;)

      Pro bono sounds far too much like Rooney's early dalliances.

      Stay or leave, it is win-win for Liverpool, but it is better for our future if he gets some first team experience this year

      I agree, I think Jackson Martinez would be a viable option. He would be cheap as I think his contract runs out soon  ;D

      If he wasn't injured I'd make a bid for Theo. So bit of a pointless post this really.

      But when he's back we should go in for him. Presumably he is behind Sanchez, Cazorla and Ozil in pecking order. Wenger doesn't seem to fancy him as a striker either.

      Walcott Sturridge Sterling as a front three. Wow.

      Exactly how I feel. If anyone can get the best out of him it has to be BR.

      If Brendan can sort our Balotelli's attitude and bring the best out of him on the pitch he will be a serious bargain.

      A lot of the attention would be on him as well which could suit Sterling and Sturridge. He'll need to sort that work rate out though.

      Never thought about it like that. Really good point. Massive advantages for sterling and Sturridge

      Would gladly have him here. He necessarily wont be a nailed-on starter in all games. If he does start, I guess he'll be more potent than Rickie, making an effective diamond. A loan deal would make sense I guess but probably Milan would need outright cash to reinvest

      Dr.Peters is probably thinking "Man, I thought I just had a break.." after Luis' departure  :laugh:

      Although, “I can categorically tell you Mario Balotelli will not be at Liverpool" doesn't fill you with confidence
