Yossi wanted out.
Reira hit a youth player.
Roberto needed games to regain his form and fitness.
Things ended up shit with the 3 we have brought in but they needed to be done and the players leaving were unavoidable.

Apart fro Aqua, those players will cost us easily 50m. Which players can we sell to get another 50m?

If we play hardball I think we can get away with paying £40 Million
CB: Cahill £10 Million
LB: Taiwo Free
DM: Adam £5 Million
LM: Nzogbia £8 Million
RM: Young £17 Million
AM: Aquilani
We'll sell:
Cole £5 Million
Jovanovic £2 Million
Jay Spearing £1 Million
Christian Poulsen £2 Million
Maxi RodrÃguez £2 Million
Paul Konchesky £2 Million
Stephen Darby £1 Million
Daniel Ayala £2 Million
Nabil El Zhar £1 Million
Philipp Degen £1 Million
Emiliano Insúa free
That's about £19 Million and I bet we'd get more.
The owners will hopefully invest £21 Million. Which isn't really that much.

Cahill easily 15m since he is Brit.
Adam 5m? Maybe 8m since we could not get him for 6m. I know he is out of contract soon but he is also a Brit
Nzogbia 8m? More like 12m
Young an English will definitely be more than 20m

...we'd kept Riera, Aquilani and Benayoun instead of getting Cole, Jovanovic and Poulsen.
[/quote]
Obviously, and I said this at the time.
I found it strange to seem such a staunch defender of Riera, given what he apparently did was so obviously wrong, what he said was accurate but innappropriate, and apart from all of that, he wasn't a great player. Setting aside all of that though, he was a good outlet, and a natural wide player. I hoped we'd get lucky with Jova, but wasn't that happy getting a forward "who can do a job" on the wing, but didn't expect he be such unadulterated shit. Hopefully the last in a little line of horrible transfer seasons.

It's easy to dismiss losing Torres that easily now, but it would have been regarded as disastrous at the time (as it was initially when he did go). Yossi wanted out "SO" we'd have been keeping an unhappy player if he'd stayed. You can't ignore what Riera did (Citeh tried with Barton but had to get rid in the end) - and he was never THAT bad BTW. Dreamy has a point.

[/quote]I know you did Farky i remember it well. I did too with Riera and Aquilani. Sadly i wasnt arsed about Yossi leaving and i was wrong. Ive since realised that he was a massive part of all ths good we did and i wish id seen it sooner.
I didnt want any of the three players who came in ranging from Apathy (Jovanovic) to utter loathing (Poulsen) but there you go.

My point wasn't that they wouldn't be better if they stayed of course they would be.
But nothing was going to change the fact all 3 either wanted out or had or to go for various reasons.

If we didn't get Cole at the tiem we may have lost Torres in the summer.
SO?
Yossi wanted out.
SO?
Reira hit a youth player.
Yeah but he turned out to be shit so SO?
Roberto needed games to regain his form and fitness.
WHO?
Things ended up shit with the 3 we have brought in but they needed to be done and the players leaving were unavoidable.
NO.

Summed up nicely. Also, who the fuck is Roberto?

It's easy to dismiss losing Torres that easily now, but it would have been regarded as disastrous at the time (as it was initially when he did go). Yossi wanted out "SO" we'd have been keeping an unhappy player if he'd stayed. You can't ignore what Riera did (Citeh tried with Barton but had to get rid in the end) - and he was never THAT bad BTW. Dreamy has a point.
[/quote]Sure its clear this is a 'with hindsight' kind of thread JJ. Some people wanted Riera gone, Some wanted Yossi gone etc, but now looking back we had 3 very good players and traded for 3 useless cunts.
We may has well have traded for magic beans.
[/quote]
My point wasn't that they wouldn't be better if they stayed of course they would be.
But nothing was going to change the fact all 3 either wanted out or had or to go for various reasons.
If this was a I wish we kept Riise and Bellamy I'd be with you 100% as we could have prevented letting them go.
[/quote]I dont think you fully understand what a wish is DB.

Yossi wanted out.
[/quote]
This isn't really true Pat. Rafa no longer wanted Yossi on the team.
[/quote]
He left after Rafa was gone.
Yossi always seemed to love playing for us but he could have stayed to fight for his spot once it was clear Rafa was gone.
He made the choice to join Chelsea ( hard to blame him really as I thought for a scoring midfield which were in short supply he was treated poorly by LFC)

[/quote]Its hardly silly stuff regardless of your spurious arguments against. We had Yossi, Aquilani and Riera under contract and CHOSE to let them go (for whatever reason) and we signed Cole, Jovanovic and Poulsen to replace them.
I WISH we hadnt done that.
