The Liverpool Thread

I don't understand why Suso got fined for calling somebody 'gay'?.. The FA make me laugh.. Rather than actually doing any real work they just go around fining people for what they post on social media sites!

Because they have quite clear guidelines about what goes on social sites. And this is actually part of their work. This isn't new or sneaky.

Just been watching 'Revista de La Liga' then and it was mentioned that Feghouli from Valencia has been linked with us, no price mentioned. Could be a good buy.

What are your opinions?

 

[LFCMarshall]

The Suso fine is petty and stupid, it was a joke between mates, nothing malicious or targeting anybody..

Yes the FA have rules in place, but this is stupid

But it is ridiculous.

Good player, very tricky and can play both flanks. But he isnt a goalscorer, he is more of a chance creator. And Liverpool create chances already, what they need is those chances converted. Wouldnt be my primary target.

Yes it is, but its still there. Has to be followed whether we agree with it or not (think its overkill personally).

LFCMarshall I agree, but given the current climate, probably one he should be making in private.

As do all workplaces. Never said it was new or sneaky, just utterly retarded. What exactly was his crime?

Is that the tweet he was fined for?

Don't worry it's not just the FA who do that. The Police do as well.

Enrique posted a picture of what i think was getting a dentist come to his house..

Suso posted the picture and put something like

' what is he doing.. is he gay?'

10k fine. ouch.

Think its the fact he was trying to imply it as a bit of a negative (albeit it was in jest). Still, not smart to do it publicly.

I'd say the fine was justified purely due to the quality of the joke.

Rory Smith has said Sturridge and Ince are essentially done, will be announced early in January. 18 million overall.

 

[GodCubed]

£18 million is a little steep...

 

[JDY]

Sturridge will do well for you lot. Never given a proper chance as a CF at Chelsea because of Torres. Was one of our best players under AVB and excellent at Bolton.

That being said, decent money for a player will 6 months left on his contract.

 

[Ride The Walrus]

£18 million is a little steep...

Meh, reasonable enough. It is worth one Stewart Downing overall. Two young players, one an English international.
not my first choices by any means.

I think the clincher is that they're English. Wouldn't cost anywhere near as much if they weren't. Liverpool have a lot of English players though...

Not entirely sure they will even play him at CF. Given his nature to shoot on sight they should, but not sure they will.

£18m a bit steep for the two, but beggars cant be choosers.

The "english premium". Not convinced Liverpool need to even buy English tbh.

 

[LFCMarshall]

Sturridge 12mil
Ince 6 mil... but will be 4 mil due to our 35% clause.

16 mil isn't that bad although wouldn't have been my first choice deals!

From the rumours, Walcott is still a possibility, and a more obscure rumour i just saw.. David Villa on loan! haha

 

[Lee]

I don't think it's an English premium. More a 'Well you paid more for Downing..." premium.
