Oh dear, the Benteke rumours are gaining weight. :/

Eds do you think all transfers will depend on who's in charge this summer or might certain others be bringing in certain players regardless?

Thanks very much

{Ed001's Note - it will depend in part on who is in charge, but some will still be done regardless if it seems to be a no brainer to the club.}

Benteke is. clutch at straws because anyone else will want over 100k.

Personally providing we adapt i hope he would do well.
I don't presume to know the tactical awareness on how to do this but i'd rather just see Liverpool win and adapt sexy football after, rather than getting hammered by palace at home, Plus missing out on champions league

Thanks Ed1, so the Benteke stuff could actually be true. Sigh. Did Andy Carroll not teach us anything!? :/

Nooo, absolutely nothing against benteke at all bur haven't we just had the different type of striker exercise with ballotello and lambert? He's not different, you can't press with him, you have to knock the ball up to him to get the best out of him. Lambert even tried it with playing possession football and he just didn't work inside that system, as soon as Sherwood got in he just went direct to benteke and he has done well.

To get benteke you have to let Rodgers go and the club has to get someone who can use benteke if your looking to invest 30 odd million on him!

Bur eds my question is back to the money side of things which you hate and I have my own issues with not getting costa but going and getting sakho.

For all of us fans we only know what we are told so please take it easy with me but of we are prepared to pay 30/35 million for benteke why can't we go for someone like vietto (who for us fans is valued between 25-30 million?) is it purely bentele would come without champions league but vietto wouldn't or do the club have there own agendas?

{Ed001's Note - Vietto is off elsewhere.}
