Eds, there's a few sites saying that we had a £14.4m bid for Vidal rejected recently. That's quite a specific number to be totally BS. but is it? If it's true it would be another example of the embarrassing type of low bids we've been putting in over the last few years - he's worth a lot more, so why not bid a sensible amount to start with? Cheers

{Ed002's Note - That would have equated to €20M a few days ago - a little over half the asking price.}

Well at least Rodgers can't get the blame for that. What is the objective of putting in such low bids? I just don't get it at all! Not that Vidal would have accepted anyway.

Start low and hope we don't anger the other team is our philosophy!

To be fair we don't have the money to go in with a huge bid, but imagine we bid 40m and (not that we would find out like) could of gotten the player for half of that! So I do understand it, but what I find is we start low with no intention to go higher, it would be alright if we would go to the acceptable amount!

Makes me feel like brendans asked for said player and the club do a bid like that and then go back and say "oh we tried" lol

Start low and work up like with Lallana. Or take it as it is and completely false. Ed002 stated a few days back Vidal won't be joining Liverpool just like with Depay with United no point even getting our hopes up that we could be linked with a top player like Vidal

Very much believable considering Liverpool's transfer tactics of joke bids to annoy the 'selling' club
