Selective memory again, he was the tramp at Lime St doing the robbing and that's how he got his ticket. #6CM conned again.
I think if he hadn't gone to the World Cup and returned to the team later than Skrtel, he might have given Skrtel a bigger push for the starting spot.

that deal was crazy . Santos were 'done' in the sense they only got 14m of 71.5m , well ok and also 6m for selling future options on their players .
The money neymar's father got ! mental . I guess the lesson is if your kid shows promise and you live somewhere that allows it , keep ownership of his playing rights !
"Shortly after Rosell's departure, his successor Josep Maria Bartomeu, called a news conference to reveal the true cost of signing Neymar was actually £71.5m.
In an unprecedented move, Bartomeu - a close ally and friend of Rosell who was vice president at the time of the signing - went further, explaining exactly where all the money had gone.
There was a £33m compensation fee paid to Neymar's father to ensure he joined Barcelona.
Santos got £14m.
But there was also an £8m signing-on fee, a £6m fee for taking an option on future Santos players, £2m in agents fees (also paid to Neymar's father) and a further £2m to Neymar's charitable foundation in Brazil.
The club also revealed that Neymar was being paid £9m a year in wages.

If true that's probably bye bye Van Buyten, and they'll have Boateng, Dante and Benatia.

Stoke City chairman Peter Coates "We also met Liverpool's asking price on Assaidi. That deal fell down on personal terms."
where is this guy ? who is he training with ?

And Badstuber
Injured, I think.
He will be and would have been bar injuries and the WC imho.
I think I would probably gamble on Balotelli at this point, at the price mentioned previously. Or a loan deal.
Yep, agreed, peter.
...which evens things up a bit. He's well overrated.

Liverpool may be moving a step closer to bringing in a much needed striker signing with Italian source CalcioMercato claiming that AC Milan striker Mario Balotelli wants to move to Anfield.
The Merseyside outfit are to offer €22m (£17m) for the 23 year old which is just short of AC Milan’s €25m (£19.9m) asking price.
Balotelli’s agent Mino Raiola has reportedly been working on the deal for some time and San Siro boss Filippo Inzaghi has already set his sights on Torino’s Alessio Cerci as a replacement for the former Man City man.
AC Milan’s board are keen to see the deal completed and Balotelli will look to secure a four year contract, with the Liverpool target demanding £4.7m a year, which works out at a seemingly moderate £92k a week deal.

Good !
Very good !
Agreed.
Once the negotiations (if there are any and this isn't BS) are finished then it'll be a good deal all round. Maybe €20m and £75k per week. A nutter perhaps but he has an excellent scoring record and doesn't seem to mind his time on the bench too much (at least it seemed that way for the majority of his time at City). He'l get far more pitch-time with us too.
I'm been saying for ages that the whole Balotelli package seems right for us (and is in line with FSG's money ball) as a temporary measure whilst we bide our time over a striker that we really do want.

hey, at least it would be interesting . But rodgers would really need to work his magic cause recently when i've seen him he's looked uninterested and very average.
And if either Sean or Chastened don't come up with the dosh then it's all on Gene as the instigator.
