I just think we will get someone unexpected in with the Torres money before the window slams shut.

I hope you're right. Preferably Llorente. But I don't think its gonna happen. Not enough time to negotiate.
If we do find someone I hope it's not someone like Carlton or Doyle.

Actually Suarez is a bit of a short arse, so we will deffo need a taller striker coming in today who can lead the line, should Torres go.
Llorente, Benzema, someone over 6 foot.

He's just under 6', not quite a short arse but not too imposing i suppose.
I doubt the club will announce the sale of Torres before a deal for his replacement is in place, or we'll be quoted exhorbitant prices by the clubs of those strikers we're interested in.

Negotiation 101!
Having said that its surprising how often the fundamentals of pricing negotiations are ignored so it will be a good opportunity for our DoF to show he can run these type of negotiations for a club like Liverpool.

Don't know if it's been posted already

To answer a few questions: I understand Fernando Torres remains as determined as ever to leave #lfc after talks at Melwood today
[/quote]
So you're determined Fernando. Ok, my former hero, why don't you tell chelsea to bridge the difference in valuations by taking it out of your wages. Should be about £100k per week.
After all it's not about money for you, you're just desperate to win things. No pain no gain.
Alternatively sell the prick to real madrid and let the athletico fans feast on his still beating heart.

That report can't be true, that Suarez is part of the expected £50m. Can it? It's not like it's nailed on that we'll receive that much.

I don't think it matters. We're clearly trying to spend in Jan and we'll be spending in the summer as well.
If nothing else, the days of worrying about what our transfer budget is or isn't made up of seem to be behind us.

It does leave us with it all to do today though, Adam and Young maybe, but we STILL need a striker.

It is nonsense when Suarez was bought to play alongside Torres.
If chelsea are really only offering in the low 30's for Torres then I would expect to have an uhappy bunny still on our hands at least till the summer.
