washsaint Posted 25 June, 2015 Share Posted 25 June, 2015 So, smug, smarmy Rodgers now has/looks like having: Lallana Lovren Lambert Clyne And we will have mugged them off for nearly 60 million for those 4. He's bought Danny Ings and some SOuth American for nearly 30 million (how long does it take for South Americans to settle in and adjust?). If I were a Liverhampton fan I would not be happy - and I truly hope Clyne works out as badly for them as Lambert and Lovren. I can't believe he is likely to have 4 of our team that finished 8th - and that;s their spine? Thank god we have Koeman! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Lallana has shown enough for them, just held back by injuries a bit so far. Lambert - a 32 year old squad player he's done alright. Never going to be their first choice or play week in, week out. Clyne is a good right back, they're getting at a great price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blow this money and achieve the usual under performance and he's gone. Personally I hope he succeeds for a shirt time because the longer they have him in charge, the more rot can set in. Someone on RAWK said earlier that the signings they've made (Clyne was included in that) that the players they've signed are good, but need the right coaching...

Therefore they are in awe of us and like everything in the world it's supply and demand. They pay bonkers money and we supply. But Liverpool are that Premier Leagye Club who tend to buy the best players from the clubs below them in the league, whereas the biggest clubs buy top talents all over the globe. I don't buy the Firmino crap, someone who managed around 7/8 goals in the Bundesliga isn't gonna suddenly set the world alight in the Premier League. Almost killing two birds with one stone as it weakens the other clubs and strengthens them... (HOWEVER, when they were offering stupid money to us last season- it definitely worked in our favour :lol: Just look at Liverpool recent transfers (off the top of my head): Lallana Lovren Lambert Ings Clyne Mignolet Allen Henderson Carroll Downing Adams Jose Enrique Glen Johnson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the point is that Lallana did not hit the ground running there. He did not have a good season what so ever. And I don't see how you can claim to be neutral in all of this. You clearly only have 1 side. I have no problem with people moving and bettering themselves, it's their life. But what I have a problem with is when they act like spoiled little ****s whilst sticking their fingers up to a fan base who have supported them all their career. I don't think it's bitter, people are just disappointed and let down by how he left. He could have handled everything a hell of a lot better.

As fans we're not born with a natural gift for the game we love, nor are we in jobs (on the whole) that can financially set us up for the rest of our lives by the age of 30. We aspire to bettering ourselves and yet don't forget the importance of community, loyalty and respectful ways of doing things. Ultimately there are a few professionals in the game, lambert for one, that understand this and understand we pay their wages. They understand that perceived anger is not in the fact someone has bettered themselves but in how they've done it. If I were to look back on my career and think I'd achieved it by sulking or acting like a child id be shocked. If I were to belittle those that couldn't have what I did and played up to them, well if be disgusted in myself. Of course that's not most footballers mentalities from a young age they're taught what they do is in some way special, when in fact they're not. They're just performers in an industry that pays wages without morality or soul. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ART Posted 25 June, 2015 Share Posted 25 June, 2015 The damp air off the Irish Sea will soon put an end to Clyne's attempts to establish himself for the Scousers.

With an opening 7 away games like they have, they'll be playing catch up all season no matter who they sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand Lambert going there as it was a boyhood dream and he was past his best but the other two have seen their careers stall by going to Liverpool.
