Tony Barrett @TonyBarretTimes · 2mWe've now reached the stage where people make up a rumour & clubs get criticised for a lack of ambition when it turns out to be false! Nuts.
Why would he bother to keep returning to the subject if this is all there is to it?
I'd have said it looks like Rodgers is winning his war with the transfer committee: Markovic their single representative.
That's a steal that.

I never ever bet, but is it possible that things like this are an attempt by somebody, not necessarily the tweeter in question, to manipulate the odds? Can't you profit from moving prices on the exchanges in some way, if you know in advance?
Sky Sports News and Skybet certainly do that.
Because he's being criticised by the twitterati for Liverpool not showing any ambition in the transfer market.
They have a point, we aren't, Markovic is the only signing that's shown an iota of ambition. Of course that's not Tony Barrett's fault, and unlike Skullboy I'm prepared to wait until the end of the window before condemning the club, however i'm not hopeful at the moment.
now?? We have been at that stage since the interweb came about; in the good old days you would find out about new signings when it was announced on the back page of the Echo you got on the way home from work

I would normally agree, but I played that tune in January when we didn't sign Salah/Kono and we ended up second, so I think this time I'm going to give the club/BR the benefit of the doubt and wait to see how we start the season before allowing concern to seep in.
Plus as I've said in another thread, when's the last time we signed an established top class player? I may be missing something phenomenally obvious, but I can't remember us ever doing that.
i'm right about this shit every fucking year. deffo don't get your hopes up.
er..... maybe we would have finished first if we'd spent some money on quality.
Maybe we would have, but equally maybe it would have upset the balance of the team. The fact is that we didn't sign anyone and still finished ahead of teams that spent more than us and signed top class established players such as Juan Mata and Mezut Ozil.
we had suarez back then
Yes we did. We didn't have Lallana, Markovic, Emre Can, Lambert and anyone else we might potentially sign this summer.
Why not wait and see how we start playing next season before slitting your wrists? We sold Ian Rush and played better the next season. It can happen. We've lost top class players before and survived.
I think we might be shaping up for a really underwhelming window here.
I like the players we have brought in a lot, but losing Suarez means we need one or two WORLD CLASS players coming in to offset that.
I dont see that happening. I think we are still on the buy young and hope for the best road.

it's gonna be the dalglish spending spree all over again. it's infuriating.
Tony Barrett @TonyBarretTimes · 5mJust to clarify, use of the word "baffled" was mine & mine alone. It was a description, not a direct quote. God help us.
