    So who will be the new Boo Boy now that Downing is gone ?

    Downing is gone. Isn't that just a beautiful thing.

    No more screaming at the TV telling him to run FORWARD and take on a player. No more watching him turn back. Stop. Look. Then pass it 5 yards square or 5 yards back. Thank F*ck.

    We should all be rejoicing.

    Mid September? You are expecting this thread to take that long to reach 10,000 posts with the footy season started?

    Methinks it will hit the 10k mark in 20 days or less.

    Borini, Allen, Aspas, or Lucas would be my guess.

    im sure the likes of borini hendo and assaidi will get the brunt of the critics attention this season. maybe alberto coates and allen too if they go through any bad patchs

    delighted downing has moved on though. just not the type of player we need

    So what's the best bit of business BR has managed to do in the last thread and what will his best bit of business be in this thread. Perhaps he'll manage to save some more wages by bringing in Cissoko on loan, then loaning him to Napoli.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,342 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    i know Barrett's been full of shi recently, but I tend to believe this.
    Tony Barrett ‏@TonyBarretTimes

    Liverpool have agreed a deal in principle to sign Ally Cissokho on loan from Valencia.

    I was thinking that Enrique may finally get on too many people's tits this year if he continues to get caught in possession when he should be doing the basics.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,740 ✭✭✭✭MD1990


    so were getting the average Cissokho instead of Siqueira
    not a great signing unless Cissokho can get back to his Porto/Lyon form

    Cissokho will be the new boo boy :D this is a really poor signing, hes not an improvement on what we already have.

    If he signs a permanent deal in the future i'd be shocked

    All he has being doing for months now is reheating stuff other media outlets and journos have put outthere.

    The deal agreed in principle thing has been floating about for a couple of weeks now.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,342 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    and I nearly forgot...1 day to go.

    Cissokho would be something at least, but it's not what we vitally need.

    CB, player for the front 3, and proper cover for Lucas, IMO, are the 3 positions that need attention.

    Willian would be a great statement, but i'll believe it when i see it.

    it's still a poor window if someone like Willian doesn't come in. and even with Willian coming, it would only have been a meh window. and that's pushing it greatly. a D grade. passable.

    Worrying, if they thought Siquiera was of the standard required then upping to £12m should not be a problem.

    Siqueira is a far superior player to the Cissokho of Valencia, but if Cissokho arrived and recreated his first few seasons at Lyon in terms of form ( his Porto form only consisted of the five or so months of league time) then we would have a beast of a full back who would either force Enrique to up his game or replace Enrique.

    Of the two Siqueira would be my first choice, but a cheap deal or loan deal for Cissokho would not be a bad gamble to take. He has the ability and he has age on his side.

    25 million pounds will nab him I'd say. Shaktar have said they are willing to sell if they get an offer near what they paid....and they paid around 30 million. Liverpool clearly have around that amount if they were in for Mhikitaryan for 22 million.

    It's possible. He going to want around 100k a week though. Bear that in mind.

    For all the big talk, money is not being spent. We are either saving funds for the big 'wow' signing, or else we are generally resigned to not paying what they perceive as too much.

    If they are interested in upgrading the LB position they should have identified someone already that is worthy of spending a decent chunk of change on rather than trying to get the best cheap player as seems to be the actual route they are going down. This is unlikely to result in any meaningful actual upgrade unfortunately. There are of course exceptions, but either identify your man and go for him with commitment, or else admit that they are working under budgetary constraints.

    He would be, albeit one that we would know has the potential to be a first teamer.

    We do need a couple of proper first team signings, but would not be against bringing in some decent cover at left back should Siquiera be a no go.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,275 ✭✭✭slingerz


    Cissoko is a squad filler IMO nothing to set the heart racing really.

    its probably the first time that a player that has been linked to Liverpool over the course of a couple of years has actually gotten in the door. Pity is wasnt Arda Turan!

    Is Arda in the last year of his contract now? Would be worth a punt.

    What i think the team will be Vs Stoke

    _____________Mignolet___________
    Johnson___Toure___Agger__Enrique
    _________Lucas_____Gerrard______
    _____________Allen______________
    ___Aspas______________Coutinho__
    ___________Sturridge____________

    i would start Coutinho in for Allen & have Sterling on the left
