I'd take that deal all day long. He might have been a plum but his relationship with City benefited the club immensely, his YouTube clips gained millions of hits for the club's channel.

We got more out of him than Rodgers and Liverpool ever did.

Rodgers was the guy who said he could put him on the straight and narrow...at least we got him to play and score goals. Granted most were pens but who would ever forget the Why Always Me? goal or even the Norwich shoulder?!!

I mentioned it in relation to it being a fact rather than saying that I agreed with it - there’s no question that there has been a PR war and that he’s lost it. Somewhere along the way, then he may well have received some slightly unhelpful advice from his agent. I’m not sure.

At the same time, why would I believe everything (anything?) that comes out from the club? Modern day football is big fucking business – and arguably the football aspect is just a sideshow in many respects. Whilst I still follow the sideshow, I don’t support the business.

For example, Roy Hodgson once informed the national press that Mascherano had refused to play against City just days before he left for Barcelona. It has since been strongly suggested that this infact a lie. Football had become completely irrelevant at Liverpool at that time - particularly given we had Roy fucking Hodgson as manager - and it’s now thought he was left out to protect the ‘investment’ (to avoid injury) as there was a real danger that Liverpool would go into administration – especially without the sale going through. People believed what they heard / were told though.

This isn’t unique to Liverpool, by the way. All clubs drip feed the media with certain information that they want to put out into the public domain. It’s exactly the same with agents.

At the end of the day, I don’t actually have a clue what’s true and what isn’t in any of this – be that from Liverpool’s, City’s, Raheem Sterling’s, Aidy Ward’s or whoever’s perspective.

45 million would suit all parties though here, I think. Might as well get it done (and we can then go and try and get a forward in).

Up the Reds!

Why do you keep signing off with 'Up the Reds'?

 

[hihosilva]

I'd tell those idiots that the deal is on the table till tomorrow otherwise we pull out.

Not wanting to drift off topic but it's too late for Mario now. He was at his best when he was with us and could have cracked on to become a great player. It's downhill for him now.

Or the assist for Aguerooooooooooooo.

Ye and let Chelsea come in and sign him up.

 

[Rösler von Stretfordbömber]

Predict tomorrow's line in the Star after the dippers continue dicking around with this latest bid.

"Chelsea poised to swoop for Sterling."

Whether or not the chavs have one iota of interest in doing so, obviously.

 

[philjoneswho?]

Ah shit my bad how could I forget!! That's rag territory! Haha!

 

[The Count Of Monte Cristo]

Its not just about filling the numbers though is it. If its just about technically filling up the squad numbers you could bring in your reserves. The next time you face up Bayern Munich, and your bench is packed with underage players, theyre not gonna be too worried are they. 2-3 injuries is all that it would take to see that happen.

That's twice you've mentioned Bayern, we beat them last season and the season before. Anyway any excuse to post this:

WTF? Fernando over Fernandinho? Crazy talk!! :-)

We all know 4-2-3-1 is City's best formation, but who are the 2 and 3, and which one Yaya deserves to be in, are questions that need answers! I think Pogba is part of the 2 with Fernandinho, with Yaya in the middle of the 3 and Silva and Nasri either side of him. Throw in Sterling and we now have Nasri under pressure. Throw in De Bruyne, and we have some serious options in the 2-3 department, which is EXACTLY where Pelle needs strength in depth, as Mourinho proved last season.

We need a settled back 4 to sit behind and clean up messes and then we need to let 5 WORLD CLASS players do what they do best. Aguero up top picks himself every game he is fit, and most games he is only half fit, with Bony coming in to assist when needed and to replace more frequently when Sergio is tiring.

So, who plays second center half? MDM, Mangala, or Denayer (if he signs!!!).

Starting to get an itch that may need scratching before Aug 10th!

The obvious error is Fernando/Fernadinho, but the formation they have is spot on with with the 4231/4123 and its interesting to have it proved (if the OPTA stats are correct) that Aguero supported by skillful attacking midfielders is the best way to get the most out of him as many of us have been calling for.

The potential of that formation with Sterling, KDB & Pogba added to the mix is a mouth-watering prospect. I'd go even further and add Delph for £8-10m into the mix as a direct home-grown replacement for Fernando. I like Jovetic as a player but if he has to go to make all this possible, its a pill I could easily swallow.

Dzeko looks like he's going which is best all round imo, so it now makes sense that we extended his contract when we did and gave him another chance with Pellegrini. At worst it maintained his transfer value and at best it put us in the driving seat to any potential transfer as opposed to what happened with Milner.

For me its just Kolorov left to be replaced by someone with more pace and defensive bite and we should be to rock and roll.........

 

[stony]

We need Marco to rub his balls again, that will tell us if and when he's signing.

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

I don't think Liverpool will accept the £45 Million bid.

Don't know why, I just think they're too stubborn and thick to accept anything other than the fee they've been posturing over from the start!

Weird, deluded halfwits.

Chelsea won't go anywhere near the price we've offered.
