he is worth more to us than 20m as we need a strong defence. he is not easy to replace

agitating to get away weakens our position and so costs us potential millions in fees. if we stood our ground it may cost us a few hundred thousand until the player understands that he needs to play or he will never get a move in the future. Yes i understand he will still go in time but it would give the club breathing space to stop this death by a thousand cuts

Will clubs ever stand up to this action? I know it would take courage to take a stand on this but blackmail needs to be resisted. Is Lovren with the same agent as AL if so it seems their strategy seems to be the same as it worked last time

both IMO but. I respect others may have a different view.AL had said RL had spoken to him about the move, I have not seen any quotes re Lovren and so cannot say that is fact but I believe it would be the case if Liverpool are after him

I very much doubt the Vman is Adam as there are far too many words in his post

I agree the dream died when those 2 left, many won't agree though. AL just didn't do it the right way and so is the point of our anger

or in time the penny will drop and fans will realise that RL has played a part like Gerrard in persuading AL and you never know Lovren away. I accept him leaving to go back to Liverpool but I do not feel happy if he has also kicked us by encouraging others to join him.

I am not sad he has gone as I believe we have got a fantastic price for a player who has tricky feet but cannot hit the ball with any pace, the amount of times he scuffs shots is ridiculous for a professional footballer, as for heading the ball!! I really cannot remember him ever doing so. You will ask why all the angst? I think it is seeing a large part of our club being torn away with Lambert and. Pottichino leaving at the same time let alone others may follow. Of all the players to leave AL was one who has been with us during the fall and rise and so many look on him as one of us, and the indecent way he left us/angled for a move. He apparently is an Everton fan and so his love of Liverpool is somewhat strange, I don't think his appetite to join you would be the same if he was getting a pay-cut. Liverpool is a massive club and so it is natural for a players head to be turned, I look forward to see how the fans react if Suarez is sold and AL is the new provider. Enjoy the 60-70 minutes he will bring to your team on match day, but I suppose that's all you will need from a 25m substitute.

I don't think it would matter if it was a double whiskey with you, it seems beyond doubt

lol

Wanyama is combined with Lovren the main reason our defence was so tight at the start of the season. Wanyama like Lovren would be immense again this season, dont underrate how important he is

to be fair the original letter is using quotes from the Star. I do get your drift though

I suspect the best thing to do is contact Liverpool Echo and tell them how happy we were to take the fantastic amount of money we got for him.

It does tell us that the club and AL relationship is strained as he could have easily done an interview on their giving a fond farewell,I assume the club refused. and as much as I like RL he has let himself down in my eyes for undermining our club by persuading AL as well. Has he been onto Lovren as well? If so RL is tarnishing himself

i expect he thinks the less words on a full page advert the cheaper it will cost him.At the end of the day he can flick his fingers at us as he will be pocketing 80k a week I suppose

The bottom one says it all , superb Ant

Weston you have to accept that your friend AL father probably lied to you when he told you no contact had been made. I don't care AL has left,except the way he has done it.( if true) Personally I believe he has been overrated and if you read back to my posts a few years back I mentioned his lack of shooting ability. He has got us 20m ish and that. I am grateful for. Please excuse me if I don't wish him well in his future career, as his actions could be a bad example to the youngsters at our club

Morgan is a decent player but he really does need to add a few more goals to his play

All in your humble opinion of course, or are you the all knowing god on here? I suspect you have overdosed on your arrogance pills

I would have thought there is an fantastic extra revenue stream if they get this right

I am not up to speed on kit deals, but why. Does it matter which company makes it? If we make our own surely we can provide a unique design. I suspect the possibility of a company making 10k shirts would get them falling over themselves for the opportunity

What a sick b#######. i do hope he gets his didgeridoo gets really abused inside

A scouser has nicked the contract and pen

Just wait for the 'I decided that my heart was still at SFC and so turned down the move'
