| Quote ="Sthelens RLFC"Since January 2011 at Liverpool
Out:
Torres £50 million
Babel £7 million
Konchesky £1.5 million
Total £58.5 million
In:
Suarez £22 million
Carroll £35 million
Henderson £15 million (approx)
Downing £17 million (approx)
Adam £7 million
Total £96 million
Net spend of £38 million to sign 5 young first team players in exchange for 1 first team player who didn't want to play for Liverpool anymore and 2 fairly awful squad players. Overall, I'm very happy with that. Anymore spending will probably come from the sale of players we don't see as first team players.'"
Not having a pop but why do Liverpool more than any other set of fans try to decrease transfer fees in such posts. £20 million fee agreed according to Sky Sports news for Downing and £20 million was widely reported in nearly all media outlets for Henderson.

On the other hand, why do transfer fees always get rounded up when Liverpool are involved? I wrote approx beacuse I've heard fees ranging from £13m to £20m for Henderson, and £16mil to £20mil for Downing. It's not been disclosed so we've no idea. I'm sure I've read from someone at Liverpool that we haven't paid £20 mil for Henderson and that £13m has gone down which could rise to £16m. the £20m always included N'Gog as well. He didn't sign and I'd say we valued him aroudn the £4mil mark. Radio City reported that £17million was accepted by Villa for Downing. Villa were looking for £18.5mil for him so why would we go to £20m?
I'm sure you don't usually take everything that SSN reports as read. Ryan Babel would still be in a helicopter if they were right all the time.
Either way, taking it to £20mil for each of them (which it wasn't) would take our net spend to £46 million. Do you think we've done good business in total or not? Whilst it looks like we've spent a raft, when you take it with the signings in Kennys tenure, I'd say we've done very well.

| Quote ="inside_man"But Torres hasn't been on form for 2 years now (imo). I kinda hope after a summer off and a full preseason he can get some semblance of form back (not too much mind).'"
He hasn't or he's been patchy at best and spent a bit of time injured but on his day he's the better striker of the two, I just hope he regains his old form and gets a hat full!
Quote ="Catalancs"Villa bid £10 million for N'Zogbia. After getting £20 million for Downing, if that comes off you have take your hat off to McLeish.'"
Now that would be brilliant business. I see Sky are reporting they've agreed a fee with City for Given too.

| Shay Given is the most overrated player of all time. Please, save me the cliche'd response, I won't move on this.

How does what work? Are you going to answer a question or just try and score points everytime? If our net spend is somewhere between £38 million and £46 million for getting them 5 players do you think we have done good business?

You said we don't really know the amounts, you then said know it wasn't twenty million? ![Wink icon_wink.gif](//www.rlfans.com/images/smilies//icon_wink.gif)

F365 ribbed the BBC for that the other day, said it should read
"BBC read in a newspaper".
The stuff about United and Sneijder was cringeworth - Custis getting very told you so about it hours before Fergie kyboshed the whole things. Classic.

Agreed 100%. The reputation of a decent shop stopper is always exaggerated. Ben Foster is a young version of him.
Given's distribution is absolutely terrible and he has little command if his area. He'll pull off a few Hollywood saves though.

Good championship player with a decent half of a premier league season which earned him and england call up.

And that's the best of them. The faux Geordies from places like Hull are even worse.

I concur ... valid comparison. Newcastle will surely never benefit from another deal like that, what were Liverpool thinking?

Poor lad was probably just confused as to which team was there on the annual money making mission this year, I'm sure he'll pick the right shirt next time.

He wants to start by getting this years shirt. Black chevron is SO 2009.

At least he has the proper numbers though. Imagine if he'd wore it with Streetwise Sports' own?

| Brilliant excuse from Carlos Tevez as to why he missed the penalty that sent Argentina out of Copa America at the hands of Uruguay "La pelota no estaba en el punto de penal al que estoy acostumbrado" (The ball was not on the penalty spot the way I'm used to!)
