good signing i think, plays well and holds the ball, lets just hope he learns how to pass it now, was maybe a wee bit selfish at Chelsea
The thing I see different from this and the Downing, Adam transfers, is that he's still very young, his transfer fee isn't ridiculously inflated (relative) and he is coming from a much better club than the prior two players.
14m euro's for a player whose contract ended this year. L'verpool sure knows how to deal ! Borini. Carroll, Downing
I'm not going to argue with the fee. We may have paid a bit extra to get the deal done early, but the kid has talent, and is at an age where he is entering his prime years. Its not like we paid stupid money for him or he is on stupid wages. Hope he bags tons of goals for us.
Here is to seeing him put some goals away for us. 6-8 goals in this half season is expected, and would help us mightily.
So, you want him to immediately be one of the top goalscorers in the prem? Getting carried away? How about he bags 5 minimum and everything else is icing?
He's got a fair point, we suck at buying, we always seems to over pay lately. Michu is good value, I'd like some deals like that but we have a habit of not finding those deals.
Ends next year. I won't say it isn't inflated, but you're making it look worse than it is. Anyway, welcome Daniel Sturridge, and we all hope you rock your socks off in a red kit.
Everybody knows that our scouting is not fit for purpose. Seriously useless. But there is not any need to actually publish the falsehoods that he has.
