Re: Agger Bid
We must see a different player Marvin. I see a player who is capable of the odd great goal and pass but who more often than not is anonymous, lethargic, seems to get slower by the week, and struggles to beat the first man 9 times out of 10 because any half intelligent full-back long ago sussed out Johnson's one and only party trick. He's good for 10 minutes against weak or mentally beaten teams, not sure that justifies his big wages though. Mancini screaming himself hoarse in fury at Johnson every time he plays must tell you he's not that impressed...

They spent +20 Million on Downing.

That's optimistic. More like 7m-10m + AJ.

They've probably learnt from their mistake, as Downing was not nor will ever be worth £20 millionTevez City said:Blue Haze said:Tevez City said:IF they wants AJ, then it should be a straight swap without any additional fees.

Re: Agger Bid
Not sure what price we are talking about reference Agger ?
He is quality - and I feel he is just about on a par with our two current Centre Backs. My personal opinion is that Lescott is actually a little better than most City fans rate him; and Vincent (although head and shoulders above everything else in this League) just falls short of World Class status.
No way would I let them near AJ though; he is a talent and fits in well at the Club and far too good for a mid - table side like Dippers or Stoke or Fulham.

Re: Agger Bid
Guardian is saying Liverpool want £22m for Agger. I say give them, straight simple transfer. He's worth it so get it done blues!

Re: Agger Bid
22M seems a lot but in greater scheme of things we paid 24M for Jo Les - who has become a bit of beast - but at the time was a bit of a nervous neddy.
Agger has 6 years of prem playing time, international experience and is widely thought of by the pool fans as "world class." That may be a bit OTT but he's at the right age and fits the bill perfectly. I'd be ok with giving 22M to buy a few scott sinclairs and nathan dyers.

Re: Agger Bid
This is one signing I would be over the moon about, when I heard we were linked with Skrtel a month or so back I had some concerns. Agger is a CB who could slot into any defence in the world with ease, Kompany Lescott and Agger is a trio good enough to challenge on all fronts next year. Get it done!

Re: Agger Bid
WTF is this???? I thought £18 million was bad enough but Liverpool want £22 million for someone we may not get a whole season out of due to injuries.
And they say £10 million is too much for Clint dempsye.
Fuck off Liverpool and go back to whichever world your living in.

Re: Agger Bid
I think a back 3 of Agger, Vinny and Joleon would be extremely solid and imposing, especially at set pieces (both ours and theirs). It'd allow us to play a 3-5-2 with Richards/Zab and Clichy/Kolarov as the wide men in the midfield 5.
This would be good as it'd allow use of Kolarov in his 'proper' position of left midfield/wing.
This would also help to get the best out of Dzeko (width and crosses play to his strengths) if he is in fact staying.
Very solid defensively and very potent attack wise.
Add a central midfield of Yaya, Silva and Nasri and a front two of Aguero and Tevez/Balo/Dzeko to that and we'd be looking formidable.

Re: Agger Bid
If we are gonna pay around 20m for him, it just means we are more likely to be starting with back-3 formation. That is until we might discover it's not working at some point, and one of the defenders get dropped, blah blah blah.

Re: Agger Bid
Why people only think in terms of 'first choice' for any position in the team is beyond me.
The fact we were able to rotate players last season helped to give us the best injury record in the league.
I would take either Agger or Skrtel, preferably the latter. Liverpool had the best CB pairing after ours last season, imo
Lescott and/or Vinnie could do a cruciate on Sunday and be out for the season. Kolo is in decline, Savic not ready, Rekik not ready, Micah is not a centre half long term.SuperYaya said:I'd probably get excited if we got him, but right now I don't really want him. £22m is far too much for someone who isn't better than Lescott.
