Agger on the move

Status
Not open for further replies.
I like Agger but he always seemed to be at fault or lose his mms when we conceded goals for the last 2 years.
I don't think we'll miss him.
 
The director from Brøndby was just on Danish Tele. A few informations:

1. Agger didnt want to go elsewhere.
2. It's a two year deal where the 3 mill £ price also ensures that Agger gets most of his remaining 2 years salery from Brøndby. Thats a huge ask as well for a small club like Brøndby.
3. He said that Liverpool has allowed this solution to emerge out of respect for Agger and his loyalty. Please dont forget that LFC begged him no to leave a few seasons ago. And he stayed.
4. The loyalty of this player is above and beyond and people (including some of you in this thread) who doesnt appreciate this should really get fucked sideways by an elephant. Yes, he was injury prone and gave a way some soft goals but you have to respect the loyalty of this player. Show some class ffs.
5. LFC would have had to give Brøndby a bonus from any sale to other clubs as they bought him from Brøndby. Subtract that as well.

Can you clarify this further? Do we actually get £3M from this sale or are we going to spend it all paying off Agger's contract, essentially paying him to leave?

They are paying (Brøndby) 28 mill DKK. (about 3 mill£) It's is the rich owner and director who us paying this with his own money. The deal is complicated but Agger had about 115 mill dk in wages coming and there has been some sort of undisclosed compromise between the parties involved. It is not yet official but the director indicated that all 3 (LFC, Brøndby and Agger) have made this happen.
 
Don't forget that had Agger been sold for 10 mill £ LFC would have paid 1,5 mill to Brøndby. This money is part of the deal too...
 
What an act of class there.

I have to admit that I never was his biggest fan but I have nothing but respect for him.

YNWA, Daniel!
 
A very good (if sometimes overrated) player who never quite became a great one but always did his best and respected the shirt. Good luck to him.
 
He seems like a good guy but I can't help but feel that this is a waste - a bit like players going to Russia a few years back or going to the MLS or Qatar early.

I know I shouldn't feel disappointed for the guy because he's clearly doing what he wants but I do.
 
I always liked the idea of Agger better than the reality. All the best to him, a good bloke, a very good, if not great CB and a man of principles. He's got more money than he'll ever need if he's smart and secured himself a legacy at both of the clubs he loves. Good man.
 
"Liverpool have been such a big part of my life and my family's lives for so long, that leaving is extremely difficult," Agger told Liverpoolfc.com.
"The opportunity arose for me to return home to Brondby and at this stage of my career it felt like the right decision for me.
"I wouldn't leave here to go anywhere else and that has been proven by my actions in recent seasons - I have turned down many offers to move to other Premier League and European clubs.
"I would like to thank the Liverpool supporters for the incredible backing they have given me in my time here and the warmth and generosity of spirit displayed to my family.
"This has been our home and somewhere we have been very happy and settled. However, more recently I have started to feel the effects of playing regularly in a league that is as physically demanding as the Premier League is, and I would not want to stay if I did not think that I was able to meet that challenge week in, week out.
"The club itself is very special and I shall remain a supporter for the rest of my life. I regard every game I played at Anfield as a privilege"



he only averaged 27 games a season for us .

Fair play to him saying that, it's sad that that's what it's come to him for him, he has the greatest of respect from me for choosing his family over his career AND going back to play for his boyhood club. I wish him all the very best for his future and for his family too.
 
Sounds like a bit of a shit deal on our part.

I mean, I dunno, I don't really get how transfers work in terms of paying off the rest of contracts and that - I thought you just sold them and got some money and then the new club started paying the salary and that was that. I guess it's more complicated?

Whatever, £3M sounds fucking cheap
 
3 million is fuck all considering Jackie Robinson moved for 1 million.

I liked Agger as a person and player. I wish him well.
 
My favorite player in the last five years. Im sad to see him leave.

He has been a very good defender for us, and part of some outstanding partnerehips. From what he has said it seems like he was finding it increasingly tough physically, which in a way explains his last season for us. But there is no denying he was at times immesnse for us up until then. People wanted Skittles gone after Rodgers first season and were all praising him saying he deserved to be the V.C etc, but after last season many have revised their opinion retrospectevily.

He always got a raw deal on this site to over compensate for K.H.L's fanatical love for the player.

Classy Daniel's Open Letter to the fans :

"Liverpool has been such a big part of my life and my family’s lives for so long that leaving is extremely difficult.

"I’ll start by saying that Liverpool fans constantly keep surprising me. Since the news broke about the transfer, I have received so many positive messages and well-wishing for the future – not just from supporters in Liverpool but across the world.

"My family and I have always felt your backing, it is something unique to this football club, this city and our supporters – it’s been a privilege to have represented this club and I’m forever thankful for everything I have learnt during my time here.

"When I joined this great club, I came here as a 21 year old boy with a lot to learn. Liverpool has helped me grow up and shape me into the man I am today. I’m proud of who I’ve become and I wouldn’t be the person I am today without my time at Liverpool.

"I’ve been honoured to live in this close knit city and my experiences as a Liverpudlian are unforgettable. I’d finally like to wish the club all the best for this season. I’ll be supporting you every step of the way, as will millions of others.

You’ll Never Walk Alone."
Daniel Agger
