Getting on for £230mill worth of sales, not including the wage cuts from that and we haven't managed to find a replacement for a single one. You could argue Suarez replaced Torres, and although it was the case that he went on to totally eclipse Torres, ultimately he was signed to play alongside him, Carroll was the replacement signing.
Yes but both Suarez and Torres wanted to leave.. now whether thats down to FSG's mis-management or whether the player missed the warmer climate is open for debate..
As a business you want to hold on to your assets through thick and thin but if they want out there's nothing you can do and with those pair we could've had the best forward line in the world but we couldn't hold on to them..
Personally, I don't think we'll see any of Sterlings fee on someone new before the end of August.. it will end up vanishing into the new stand.. which on one hand is a good investment but if you can't win anything on the pitch you won't get paying bums on seats.. bit of a catch 22 really..
and yet when you glance down the East Lancs our arch enemy have just scooped probably the best double signing of the window(triple, if you count the Italian full back as well).. all done and dusted in a few days, no fuss,sign here, sort your medical and get your boots on..... on paper, they certainly do have a Premier League winning side.. which pisses me right off !!..
and i see the LFC interest in Pedro of Barcelona has risen again for the umpteenth time...
Who steps in for a bid?... F**kin Chelsea !
He'll probably sit on the bench behind Moureen which pisses me off even more...
We've been too soft in the middle over the last few years when it comes to doing top level business with the big boys..
