The Head Scout at the biggest clubs are absolutely stealing a living. How difficult a job is it for Utd to go and buy Di Maria, Falcao or now Dupay.

I can't remember the last time those clubs unearthed a gem completely off the radar.

3rd successive year pre season ruined by injuries - 2 new strikers needed and quick when season finishes

35 in 55 appearances overall for us.

5 in 17 this season with a number of issues as we know. This season in no way can be taken as indicative of him.

You don't give up on a 35 in 55 striker.

I have no doubt he would get us 20+ goals if he was fit. But what if this latest surgery doesn't work?

Can we go into another season with him walking on eggshells.

I don't think we can rely on him ever playing more than half a season, he is still young though.

Makes sense if we have a budget - we need the money to go on a decent striker - get Raheem signed and get his head back in the game

Times running with this quote

Rodgers says Liverpool's "other priorities" in other areas meant their interest in Memphis Depay went no further.

I do agree tbh - IBE, STERLING, MARKOVIC , origi can all play out wide - we need CFx2, CM, DM, RB priorites

He is probably better than most we have but its not a priority. Maybe if Raheem was deffo off, they might have wedged in with a bigger bid?

If they did want a winger they should be going for Yevhen Konoplyanka - keeps his budget in tack - wanted him a while ago for 16m but the owner would not sanction it - this summer he is available for free - so keeps the pennies in the pockets for priority positions

Mario Balotelli has an escape route.

Sampdoria president Massimo Ferrero has reiterated his desire to take the striker back to Italy - and says he'd do it "immediately" if given the chance.

"He's a great name and certainly he'd be welcomed by many clubs," Ferrero said. "If it were up to me, I would bring him to Sampdoria immediately. It would be fantastic to have him together with Eto'o."

Balotelli scored 14 goals for AC Milan in the Serie A last season.

We have bought a player that needs to be played as a 2, then played him as a 1 then expected him to chase down players like Suarez did - something he has never done - he will do fine in a team that play to his strengths but BR is not willing to scrap his methods for 1 player - reason why we should never have bought him.
But BR was given him or Eto to sign so you can understand why he chose him.

Issue is why the fk did we only have Sanchez as an option when we had just sold a player for 75m -
