Ah the unmistakable wit of a post-pedantic intellectual.
Yeah Teeth might have said he was after death by football, but last season we nearly died of boredom. I'm well happy with the signings so far, I'm happy Sterling has fucked off to a club that suits his demeanor, and I reckon Benteke is gonna get a zillion goals next season if we sign him.
Origi, Ings and Sturridge also provides that.
Think we'll play quite a few games with two strikers.
Sturridge Benteke
Firmino
Coutinho Henderson
Milner
Or something like that.
How come a lot of the respected journalists are using the phrase Liverpool are going to trigger his release clause. What does this actually mean.
This was reported by James Pearce 2 hours ago, surely all it entails Ian Ayre calling AV saying we will pay it and we would be given permission to speak to Benteke what takes so long?

The club will feed this sort of stuff to the friendly journalists. All part of keeping them on side.
I think people are assuming he's a playmaker, and as we're well stocked there, he somehow doesn't matter. I think he'll play a big part in attack for us.
Jesus, how do you know we didn't try our best to sign him but he had no interest? People assuming all these players would jump at the chance to join us need to get their head out of the clouds.
I think you may well have a point. Also, depending on his attitude, Benteke may also add that aspect to his game.
SO our two most expensive players of all time are Andy Carroll and Christian Benteke.
Not knocking Benteke really - but that's 70 odd million. This is why we're out of the top 4.

Look Peter, it isn't up to me to defend myself against the accusations that I'm simultaneously a post-pedantic intellectual, a dimwit, and pretentious. I'd obviously say that I think you're talking shite. I will say this though, in support of my original accusation. Normally when you meet people off the site they can surprise and confound your expectations. Posters who rubbed you up the wrong way on the site, or you barely acknowledged, turned out to be good lads. Without mentioning names, I've heard from people who have actually met with you that you really are a total dick. It isn't a persona. That's really you.
Yep.. I just find it baffling, why we never learn from our mistakes..
I'm not in favour at all. Enough of my family are villa fans for me to have seen plenty of Benteke and I've never thought he was a striker that we needed. There's not much out there to be honest so I understand Rodgers desire to bring in a proven forward, but I don't think it will prove a worthwhile investment in the long term. Hopefully I'm wrong, but there's too many alarm bells to give this signing my backing.
Did I completely miss some build up to this argument?
Or has it come out of nowhere.
(I'm enjoying it though, it has to be said)
Hahahahaha!
Well what can I say? Proof has been given!
All I know is I met a bunch of the lads from London and we remained friends. So that's my "defence".
As for the rest, I don't expect a counter argument from you. I just think, and always have, that anyone going out of their way to let other people know they're a Phd is a laughable cunt. Let us decide for ourselves if you're clever, say I. Which I do - and you're not. You're just a smug pompous dullard.
I wouldn't necessarily make a point of telling you that, but you called me a prick so that's my excuse.
I'm trying to find comfort from the fact that Lukaku cost Everton £28million. 😳
As I say, I'll leave it to people who know me to decide if I'm any of the growing list of things that you think I am. I'm pretty sure I'm right in that you are a prick though. I'm very confident.
