Re: Agger announcement
I didn't say it would happen, but Liverpool could use that as a 'bargaining' tool.
Anyone who would say Silva is 'much better' is probably only basing that on the fact he has a cooler sounding name AKA Football Manager syndrome. They're both in the top level of CBs worldwide. The only reason to devalue Agger is his injury record.
Salar said:Just cause we are a rich club does not mean we have to pay over the odds.We overpaid for players before because we didn't have much incentive to lure them to our club now that we are champions we can offer players more then money.And why are you comparing Silva to Agger,Silva is a much better player but even he is not worth the stupid amount that PSG paid for him.I mean c'mon Its about time that other clubs stop thinking of us as a bunch of mugs.And didn't rodgers have a agreement with Swansea not to take their players after he moved to a different cub.Add to that Agger's injury record then I think 18 mill is good enough.Adbs said:Salar said:Rodgers sound's like a bit of a ****.He is almost robbing his previous club on the cheap and taking their star players and Is comparing Aggers fee to Thiago Silva's.I hope we pay nothing above 18 or 20 at the most.
I think its a very comparable situation.
Both of the same age, both wanted by a mega-rich club, both quality players. If Thiago Silva went for €42m, there's no reason to suggest Liverpool shouldn't look at that and say Agger is worth a similar amount.
And how is trying to sign Allen for £12-15m ish 'almost robbing'?
