Afternoon eds.
Are we switching our interest in a striker from Benteke to Jovetic?

{Ed002's Note - No.}

06 Jul 2015 16:50:31
Not sure if he would be interested but Lacazette would be a better fit for our team and when you look at the rumoured transfer fees for him and Benteke it seems a clear one to me.

That said whoever we sign I'll be right behind.

06 Jul 2015 17:15:52
I totally agree dcal, but i can't see him coming to us. If he doesn't move this summer and has another good season I think he'll be able to pick his own club this time next year.

06 Jul 2015 20:08:53
I dearly hope we do not sign either of them. If Liverpool are in a position to spend 32m plus wages, then surely there are better achievable options in the current market

06 Jul 2015 22:23:45
Psynwa - go on then suggest some, that's the whole point genius. If you can't add content and just want to be negative then go play with your toys.

06 Jul 2015 23:52:03
The people who think Lacazette and Higuain are likely to come to Liverpool are deluded.I do however agree that Benteke is not what we need and we would be better off sticking with what we've got

07 Jul 2015 02:45:28
I look like to think that Aubamyang, forgive spelling, might be prised away from Dortmund for the amount of money that's being mentioned for Benteke, but nothing's been said about him being a target so wishful thinking I guess. I agree with Dcal, who else is there we could get? Maybe promote Jerome Sinclair? Better hope studge stays fit I guess.

07 Jul 2015 03:19:47
Higuain and Lacazette won't come to us, we CAN'T stick with what we've got because we need a new quality center forward and there are no real options other than Benteke

07 Jul 2015 07:35:47
Although I don't think he's worth 32m, I don't see any other option than Benteke. Goal every other game for a team like Villa? With players like Firmino and Coutinho around him I expect him to bing in a few more.

07 Jul 2015 09:19:19
Benteke is only 24. He's a proven goalscorer in the epl and a real nightmare for defenders. With new coaching staff in place we are obviously going to adopt new ways of playing ball. In part because we have been found out.

So please people, keep the whining to yourselves and support the beast. He might just be exactly what we need.

07 Jul 2015 10:54:57
I don't mind either. In fact if we could get Jovetic that'd be great because he's half the price. Altho Benteke's performance and form can much clearly be seen than Jove's. Poor thing warming benches at City. Great talent!

07 Jul 2015 18:31:18
My cousin is a Citeh fan and he hates Jovetic. Says he's lazy. And injury prone. I trust his judgement as he's very knowledgable.

The only positive is that a player exchange would drop the cash price for Stirling and therefore, we have to play QPR less.

{Ed001's Note - not true, the value would be the same.}

Lazio look to have agreed a fee for Borini!!

vrcomp
Y.N.W.A.

06 Jul 2015 12:54:24
Correct but borini looks like he doesn't want to go there!

06 Jul 2015 14:11:50
Borini wants to wait and see what offers he has from England before deciding on a move back to Italy

06 Jul 2015 14:42:29
Borini = winston Bogarde

06 Jul 2015 14:48:30
I feel for Borini, good enough or not for our team, his future should be sorted quickly in my opinion. Is it simply lack of offers or is there more to it?

06 Jul 2015 19:22:01
From an outsider looking in the problem with Borini's future being sorted out is down to him as if reports are true we've accepted offers from clubs (Sunderland) and he has refused to go out on loan. Don't get me wrong I respect the fact he wants to try and knuckle down and earn a spot in the team, but he has failed to do that. So why not realise it's not going to happen at Liverpool and leave?
The one reason I see is that he is on good money at liverpool and is probably finding it hard to have his wage demands met.
Just my opinion of course

{Ed001's Note - he turned down double wages to join QPR last summer and an increase to join Sundrrland. It is not about money.}

06 Jul 2015 22:41:30
I appreciate the info Ed as I was unaware he was offered higher wages as I thought him not agreeing personal terms with Sunderland was down to money.
Why does he seem reluctant to leave is it purely because he wants to prove he is good enough because he can't be happy with the amount of game time he currently gets?

{Ed030's Note - I guess he thought he could have proved himself, or he and his family enjoy the City. }

Ed's iv'e used the search function but couldn't find anything new on Denis Cheryshev saw that we were interested a while back.

{Ed002's Note - There is nothing new.}
