 Are we ready to offload Alberto for just 8M after paying about 20M (if I am correct)

You're mistaken a bit, we paid for him 16 mil £, and received an offer of 8 mil £, but it seems we're holding out for 11 mil £

sell.

let Gomez have a go at LB.

Maybe confusing £ sums with €
But still I think we should not let go for half the price we paid,      This is only my opinion anyway

I think we should sell him only IF we receive a 11 mill £ offer.

I say keep him for at least another season, would be dumb to sell players just after one season, let them really settle before judging them.

this ^^ agree 100%
 why do we bother to buy players coming from another country if we at least do not give them time to settle
 some players adapt quickly and many others take more time

If we're going to sell fair enough but I'd hope it's with a more sensible view than to just throw in a kid at LB who isn't even a LB.

We bought him for £12m.

The whole summer our fans were pissed off we wouldn't meet the £16m asking price the press quoted and cursed in the clubs direction only to see us spend £12m and show the press up for knowing F**k all.

If we can get some of our money back, excellent. He's useless. Some may not agree, but i think he is a shambolic defender, a predictable passer and a sh*te crosser.

I don't rate him at all but I'd still like him to be given another season.

I think he'll stay another season unless we're going have an out of shape slow Enrique and a kid who's not a natural left back as our only options. If we sign another left back then it might be another story.

I think I'd take the money based on last seasons efforts from Alberto. He looks like a left winger who's been asked to play left full back to me, then forgotten his skills as a left winger while he's at it. You're left with a lad who's an awful defender who offers nothing going forward. 8 million quid? That' s steep based on last season, unless he and we are confident he'll improve we should take the cash.

To be fair I don't see anything at all in that article to suggest he is going anywhere, and there has been nothing else backing it up.

Speculation and page filler is all this is.

This just confirms what I've been saying for a long time.  People are more interested in "supporting" certain individuals than supporting the success of the club. 

You yourself don't rate Moreno but you want him to be given.... even more time!  More games we could lose because of his stupid mistakes like against the Mancs, more points dropped because he has no idea what he's doing.  Why?  Because you want to give him more time.  Even if it hurts the club.

It's worth potentially dropping points for you, as long as Moreno gets a chance.

Pathetic, and this is why no one takes us seriously. 

We have to put the SUCCESS OF THE CLUB first.  What it is going to take for everyone to see that?

Most frustrating player for me, such a headless chicken with an eye for F***ing it up when it mattered the most. Seems like a nice fella and the early signs were positive but as the season progressed, I kinda lost any faith. I'd be really happy if we were targeting an improvement on that position.

If he does go, can we get R.Rodriguez, please?

Baffled at where this negativity surrounding Moreno has come, sure people likened him to Riise at points in the season last year.

Personally think he is ok at defending and an asset going forward, I think at times he was way too rash in his tackling and his defensive positioning. But at this moment in time I think we should keep him as I don't see us getting another left back, with Gomez I'm hoping Moreno will feel real pressure to up his game. 

We paid 12m for Moreno when he was valued at 20m. 8m would be a 4m loss in a year.

Agree with this. Apparently I wasn't watching the games where he played that badly. A bit brainless at times but he's a kid and doesn't yet deserve to be shipped out.

Young lad first season in the premiership where its lets say a little more competitive and in your face than La Liga, nah give him another season to adjust and settle, there might just be a player in there.

Lets ship the proper deadwood, Borini, Lambert even wee Joe Allen (But i'd suspect it would be Lucas) if we can find a better replacement.

So we would have no recognised specialist left backs at the club whatsoever until we find a replacement? No thanks, if anything we should be looking for another left back rather than selling the only one we have.

Yes Gomez can do a job there and that's fine, but selling Moreno now would be stupid.

Can't believe some are even entertaining this thought.

Agree.

If we had altready bought a LB who you could consider a starter then I could understand it but it seems a few want to ship Moreno out and play Gomez, not a LB, based on a few minutes in Asia and Australia.
