Y.N.W.A. said:simonmdm said:It seems strange to me that all the comments (from Gerrard tonight and Rodgers the other day) are about how the owners want the deal to go through and Agger is being forced to leave.
Why does it seem that everybody is ganging up on the still relatively new owners and treating Agger like he's the greatest person to ever wear a Liverpool shirt? Does anybody know?
People see the mad amount of money we splashed on players last season and think they have invested hugely in Liverpool. They have invested something like £20m net since taking over the club. Remember we sold Torres, Meireles, Babel etc to fund these transfers last season. We have also taken countless players off the wage bill who were high earners without replacing any of them - Kuyt, Maxi, Bellamy, Aquilani to name a few of them.
They are obviously here to streamline Liverpool and run it as a business which makes a profit. It seems pretty clear from the Gerrard's and the managers comments Agger getting sold will be a business decision rather than a footballing one. That can be fine if those profits are reinvested in the club but after the last two cunts who owned Liverpool failed to do this, everyone is very nervous about what motivates them as owners.
That's a fair post, it certainly doesn't look like FSG are prepared to splash the cash.
