Yes, but would you spend 20m on him? If that 20m could be spent on a player that could start a game and score against shit teams. For 10m? yes. 20m? no, we could invest the money better elsewhere.
Theo Walcott?

No. I wouldnt spend 20m on him. But that wasnt the point. I was just referring to how Ryan described him.
Ah, fair enough.
Better than what we have, but not a great footballer. He be ok, and nothing more. I wouldn't pay more than 8 for him, and I'd be very reluctant to pay that as I'd rather spend it on an unproven youngster than buy a one dimensional player with such limited intelligence.
I really hope we can do better.

Incidentally, is he for sale and where did the 20M price tag come from?
Nowhere, someone just said they'd happily have spent what we paid out for Downing, on Walcott instead. So everyone got carried away with this £20m figure.
I wouldn't mind walcott but id rather we played sterling
If the media are to be believed he's bessie mates with RVP and shares his doubts about the direction in which the Arse are going as a club. Whether that will mean he becomes available or not remains to be seen.
doesn't he have only a year left on his contract, if so nobody will pay more than £12 million anyway just as Van Persie will cost no more than £20 million tops maybe less.
Being a year from going for nothing should make a good deal.
I would prefer Adam Johnson on our right wing but if not, Theo will do, whe have not had a decent right winger since Macca anyway so what do we have to lose.

There have been also media suggestions to precisely that effect.
Mark mc suggested earlier that we might be in for him. He has also repeatedly confessed to being a big Liverpool fan. If we're in for him, I would believe he'd probably choose us over Spurs.
On the subject of whether we should sign him, I'm in two minds. He's improved as a player over the last season or two, and isn't as much of a one-trick pony as he used to be. That said, I worry about his injury record, and the fact that he's been around for a pretty long time, and yet not blossomed into the world-class player he was meant to be. At about 10-12 million, we could do a lot worse, but possibly a lot better too.
The fee is one thing. What about the wages though?
Coming late to this thread so no doubt it's been covered.
However, fuck that.
He's fast. Whoop De doo. Extremely limited footballer with that swp level of hype which is equally undeserving.
I'd be amazed & disappointed in equal measure should Rodgers get him.

Someone will make that number up in a second.
I'll start. If downing is on £65k a week, then Liverpool should spend no more than £66k.
I have to say at 20M and 67K a week hes too expensive for me

I can feel it would be around 80k's a week.
A massive bank balance? The love of his parents?
A few million in the bank.
