The Transfers Thread

[jod23]

You do know my post was agreeing with you on Valdes don't you?

Oh I thought you said you dont understand why we wouldnt be interested in Valdes. My mistake.

Reina is better than Valdes and im sure the club has no interest in any kind of swap.

It really is pathetic, but getting so predictable nowadays.

He's 30 years old, and hasn't played well for two years. He looks like he wants the move so there won't be competition for his signature, and there's every chance he'll strongly encourage the move. Barca play the game as good as any (look how much they paid for Fabregas) and I doubt they'll be willing to pay the £15m that some think he's worth.

My personal opinion but it wouldn't surprise me if they were looking to get rid over the next year or two regardless. He'll be on a decent salary and I'm sure FSG wouldn't mind getting that off the wage bill, and getting someone younger in.

I might be wrong, he might end up getting sold for more. But getting a bit sick and tired of the "trolling" bullshit whenever someone can't accept an opinion that's different to their own.

GB was the chief of this. GB disagrees with poster X, poster X is trolling.

Sadly it looks like he has gained a lot of disciples when it comes to trolling accusations.

Because it's blatant mate. 5-6 million for Reina. That is actually ridiculous.

Everything you said above is heresay too. He looks like he wants the move? Have you spoken to him about it have you? He hasnt played well for 2 years? So we have put up with a shit GK for 2 full years. Reina has been fine, has made a few mistakes but overall has been fine, not at his best of 3-4 years ago but not playing well for 2 years? Troll.

At least your next sentence is your own personal opinion which ill disagree with. Reina is on huge wages, is young in GK terms so no need to get him off the wage bill or bring in anyone younger.

Reina may want to leave, I dont know. If he does, maybe Barca are interested. He has a long time still to go on his contract. 3 years I think. So we hold all the cards. 10-15 million minimum.

5-6 million is a dead set troll. Either that or you just dont know much about football.

The "He hasn't played well for two years" line is nonsense. I watch every single game. He has made several errors, but his form has still generally been solid. I still feel perfectly comfortable with Reina in goal. Besides, would Barca want him if he was no good?

Having said that, I don't disagree that the club still may be inclined to sell him and replace him with a younger keeper in line with what appears to be the general transfer philosophy at the club at present.

I just reject the suggestion that he has somehow become a hack.

Just quit the act and stop trolling moomba when it comes to the value of Reina.

It's not trolling Jod, it's an opinion that's different to yours. And while in your eyes I might not know much about football, I'm secure enough in my knowledge of the sport that I'm happy to state my opinion without needing to pretend to be outraged and offended if someone disagrees with it.

I wouldn't call him a hack. But his form has dropped significantly in the last two years, before then he was one of the best keepers in the league and I'm sure if I read through a few posts on here I'd struggle to find any Liverpool supporting claiming thats still the case.

 

[Cruyff14]

Cool bro.

Just once you will show an objective opinion when it comes to Liverpool.

 

[Zidane98]

lol @ Moomba quoting 5-6 million for Reina. The man's 30 years old and entering the peak of his career and has been one of the best keepers in Europe for the last 5 years barring the last 12 months. Reina is still a top class keeper on a long term contract and would command 10-12 million at an absolute minimum and would probably sell for more because we couldn't get a replacement of his quality for that much.

Don't know why anyone would try and argue Reina is worth 5 million other then trying to incite Liverpool fans. Ridiculous.

 

[Zidane98]

On the Ince front it looks like we've told Blackpool that we aren't going over 6 million. Glad the club has taken this stance with Blackpool being in no position to make excessive demands in negotiations.

 

[ADL9798]

I have a feeling it could be more a case of Reina wanting to go to Barça than Barça wanting to sign Reina, this public statement from his father would've been planned no doubt. I just think as the best club in the world they would be aiming to pick up one of the top keepers around to reflect that, a few years back Reina certainly fit that bill but probably not anymore. Either way I wouldn't expect to see any movement in this window or the next one.

Regarding keepers coming in to LFC, I've heard we have interest in Butland (probably with a view to sending him back on loan until Reina leaves), and also Mexico's keeper Guillermo Ochoa.

Just like with Dempsey, huh?

I hope we go for Ince.

Well we are your scouting department.

Well we are your scouting department.

The long cries of United fans and players alike made the 7m we payed for Dempsey pay for itself.

 

[BluesMan]

Reina has been pretty terrible this season and most of last. You can't say other wise. He cost liverpool to many goals. If they get 10-15 million for him they will take it and run.

Get BR to pull some magic and get Vorm, and you've got a major keeping upgrade.

Do you even sit back and re-read the shit you post sometimes?

Honestly, trying to incite Liverpool fans. It is just my opinion of his value.

It's getting to be a real problem on this forum that you can't make any comment about certain teams without the tin foil hat brigade jumping in with their faux outrage.

 

[LukasTheGreat]

Surely Barca would be better off chasing DDG

 

[moomba]

I think their argument would be whether or not you spend big money on a keeper that isn't the finished product when you can get one that will still do a job but come cheaper. Spend their money on some more attacking players.

I think Valdes is under rated if anything, but hasn't been close to being one of the worlds best but they've never been too bothered about upgrading in that position.

One thing that hasn't really been considered is whether or not Valdes is actually leaving. I mean, why would you?

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Barca want Courtis.

 

[Pykie]

Man Utd just about closed the deal for Wilfred Zaha from Palace for 17m.

Would have to be close to a record deal for a championship or below player?

In saying that, the kid is absolute class, more than a few C.Ronaldo reminders for SAF imo.

It's not a tin foil hat brigade, it's just your opinion on this matter is a wee bit ******ed is all.

No he hasnt. He has actually been pretty good this season. Last season he was a bit patchy.
