Early in the window there was a strong rumour we had agreed a contract with clichy. Was this nonsense? Wages pending I'd see him as a good addition.
{Ed002's Note - No.}

Ed002, would I be correct in saying that Liverpool have to start concentrating on moving on players who do not feature in the plans going forward before making anymore signings?
Apparently bids have been made for Moreno which we rejected. Wonder if Liverpool playing hardball moving on players will leave them in a pickle when it comes to our squad which is already filled to the brim? Like you said, we cannot just keep on adding players.
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool have priced players at a level where it is difficult for buyers to eb found.}

Ed 2, I respect your views, but I cannot help but think that certain teams expect some of the bigger spenders to sell their surplus players for pennies.
I can't help but think the club are aware of this, but I do agree that there has to be a bit of give and take.
Thing is is that no premier league club is poor anymore as a result of the television money, so why not drive a hard bargain?
If the Southampton lad is quoted at 70, why not demand a good fee for Sackho?
{Ed002's Note - Sure, and what happens if there are no buyers?}

Liverpool will need to cut their losses with Sakho and Markovic. We ain't going to recoup what we paid out for them.

To be fair I thought 13 million for Moreno was a no brainer after these last two seasons.
