Guys i know summer transfer window is still open but acc. to you which English teams has had the best summer transfer window up until now.
I would say Liverpool and man utd.
Yes we have lots of offloading to do but I still feel we got the right players in this time.
Best signing for me benteke- forget about the signing fees, this guy has proven he can score 15 plus goals a season for the past two seasons just imagine how much goals would Diego Costa score in a team like villa(no offence)I guess lesser than in a Chelsea team or dare I say lesser than benteke. Yes,we could have gone for other strikers in Europe with that kind of amount in the likes of higuain,reus etc but you never know how will they cop up with the priemer league football (remember falcao,shevchenko,soldado).It is a risk which Liverpool cannot take this window and that's what makes benteke a fair bet to succeed. Have also seen him play at his best during fast counter attacking football with his pace n power rather than long balls.I really feel this guy would walk away with the golden boot come this season.
With the signing of benteke I think Liverpool are the dark horse for the league title rather than top four.
Jose mourinho knows it that's why recently he commented on Liverpool trying to buy the title.

In a lesser team? Costa would still score goals if the team he played for, suited the way he played.
We are buying a Benteke who has thrived on crosses, something we almost never do. What we do is keeping the ball alot, trying to make incisive passes, which requires the striker to time his runs - not that far off how Belgium plays. If you take a look at how Benteke plays for Belgium, then you will realize that Benteke is having a tough time fitting into the side, and players such as Hazard and De Bruyne looks irritated because Benteke can´t time his runs - Either he is offside or doesn´t run. This proves that even if your in a better side, it doesn´t suggest that a player will be better.

I hope he proves me wrong.

Time will prove it to be another 32 million down the plug hole. Ings will prove a better signing than Benteke

I hope we don't change our playing style but mix it up since we have added players in the likes of milner, clyne who can provide some quality crosses from the wide areas. And also seen benteke scoring some quality goals from both his foot (best one the left footed curler against man utd if am not mistaken).Interestingly 29% of his goals in the league has been score through header. with his physical attributes I think he can well be develop or adopted to the style Liverpool plays.

Benteke will be quality. Defence is where we will struggle if Rogers continues with skrtel
