Rodgers: If he keeps playing like that he's going nowhere.

£15m please

I only want to see him leaving in January if the money is then used to replace him on top of what we were going to spend anyway I.e. Sturridge and Ince if the rumours are to be believed

[Phoenix07]

Rodgers did also mention wanting a left back, so would that count as a replacement in your eyes?

We'd have Suarez, Sterling, Assaidi, Ince, Sturridge and Borini as our front six.

[Assassin]

Borini, or will he be playing left back?

[Phoenix07]

Borini, or will he be playing left back?

I keep forgetting him. Will edit accordingly.

****tish celebration. Does he really think one goal - his first and only league goal - warrants a gloaty gesture like that? He's a dickhead. Too little too late IMO, I hope we sell him in January.

[TheElephantMan]

I agree, the shush celebration is far too late.

[Red_Polo]

Yeah I'm not into abusing players but if that was intended to goad the Kop he can **** off

[MrMichael]

Maybe, and I have no evidence of this at all, it was aimed at the Fulham fans at the ground not that there were many but I would presume they might have come up with "what a waste of money" for Downing?

That's probably more likely.

Scored in the Kop didn't he? Wrong end for the away fans.

Aye - it did look like that. And even if he didn't mean it, it looked bad.

[Red_Polo]

Yep. I can see it might have been intended only for one idiot who had given him **** or something, but still...you've just scored and everyone's celebrating, why not bask in that instead of shushing in their direction? I mean it's hardly one of those ironic "I score all the time it's no big deal" type celebrations.
