Word on the street is, you've altered the parameters of what "great" is ?
Your definition of ambition is simply wasting money, how much better would we get with that one signing? Simply 'better' isnt enough.
I want us to win the league. Adding potential is what we need to do right now for me and we need more of it while we set about ridding our 'better players'
I think if we're looking at investment on players of $300m or so over the next four years to make us 'competitive', it would probably be better for the owners to invest it in building a time-machine and transporting all the fans back to 1977 for a few grand each.
A few years ago you could trust everything on the Internet. Then Twatter came along and ruined everything. Now I don't know what to believe.
not worth it mark - he's great on his day but he's 28 and we need that money for neymar.
Well, the people who know their stuff seem to think we're in contact with Ajax regarding a summer move for Eriksen.
Apperantly he's got 1 year left on his deal and he'll move on.
Wheter or not we'll sign him is another matter as half of Europe wants him but he fits the profile of the nr 10 Rodgers will buy come summer.

Interesting. Is he really as good as he's made out though Kris. Granted I've only seen him a few times but I've not been overly impressed. I mean he's not a shit player by any means but he's not world beater either from what I've seen.

I think he's great, but he does strike me as a risk and exactly the sort of player who would come over here and be a passenger. Not that I wouldn't be excited though if we were genuinely linked, I just have some concerns about his suitability to the English game, but then what would I know. I thought the same about Silva.
I believe Forren will be a good signing. He has made steady progress a few seasons and has what it takes to cope with PL level I reckon. But I thought Coates looked promising too, and players need to play to take that next step.
Ha, and I thought Morientes would be nothing other than a roaring success in the EPL
How would you rate him in comparison to what we've got mate? What style etc?
Hangeland is shite.
Look i was a bit over the top with the "shite" remark, but he's not a top club centre-back in my view. Anyway...
So not that similar to Agger then. I hope you're right about his heading ability though, because that's exactly what our defence is lacking.
Yeah, I'll agree with that. He's at his level at Fulham. Good fit for a midtable club.
Agreed. There was a time when he looked a really good player though. Defo regressed this season.
Forren coming for weeks trial first apparently
I think he is good and seem confident on the ball. He looks calm and makes the right choices most of the time. In my eyes he has more raw potential than i.e. Hangeland. I never were too crazy about him and Forren clearly is a better footballer. He has been outstanding in Norwegian league defensively. Strong tackler and good reading the game, which has compensated for his pace. But this is a step up. Norwegian league has been poor the last few seasons (even for their standards). So the big question is how good are you in the air when real men come flying in? I see people brand Agger as not good in the air, and i guess he is better than Forren. He is a lighter version of Agger maybe. What encourage me is that he has had strong progression even when playing inNNorway and he has taken his game to international level. He will have to keep adding to his game but I think he has the mentality to do that. I still would not expect to much instant impact from him and therefor it would probably make sense to nurse him in at Liverpool while Coates go on loan to get much needed matches under his belt.
To bad about Guardiola. He would bring much needed steel and pace to our midfield at the moment!
Cough...KOPTALK EXCLUSIVES...Cough
