7 mile?
Chelsea did want him, he just wanted games, which he wouldn't get with drogba, torres, Sturridge and smells ahead of himIts weird when you look at the two on paper. what has Borini done to deserve you being more excited about him than a proven EPL finisher?
Why did Chelsea not want him and why has no other top club come in for him.
You are being harsh on Dempsey there fella, on paper he is a better prospect to do well for us
Is it because borini has a more glamourous name 😉
Only beef I've got with that statement is that Sheringham was a top player thoughout his career whereas Demspey for all his workmanship and hard-as-nails-attitude never has been.Hopefully Dempsey can be Sherringham esque for us. Good signing, unfashionable but a goood player who'll get shit done.
ha , is it 8 mile ? Whatever it's a load of eminem shite .
Wait a minute. For season upon season we've moaned about not picking up new up and coming players before their star rises and their price becomes prohibitive. Now we're paying £10m for a player who was regarded as one of the few bright sparks for Roma last season and whose goals per minutes on the pitch ratio was only bettered by Ibrahimovic and Di Natale. There's just no satisfying some people. Then again, it seems some just have to have something to moan about.
This is great. Maybe Rodgers was spot on with his "exciting signing" allusion.
It seems everyone has a really good feeling about this lad and the Chelsea/Roma/Swansea fans reactions are the cherry on top.
If true that's sensationJonathan Northcroft @JNorthcroft
Borini to Liverpool all but done, fee of £7.9m (€10m)
peter crouch was likeableI'd be very happy with that. Something very likeable about this kid.
Roma paid £6 Million for him. Couldn't believe that they asked for double that. Nah £8 Million sounds fair.That fee would be fantastic, too good to be true though.
