Fabio Borini

[fidget]

Sorry I'm baffled at how he has managed to pass himself off as a footballer for so long.
He's ****ing awful and robs a living.

what a life. half a days training, some table tennis, a few high fives with the boys, some jibber jabber with mario, home to a lovely bird, maybe a few selfies wearing the sisters knickers. the lad has go it all.

Seems very odd to me that Brendan played Mario ahead of him last season. He does work hard and that kind of thing rubs off on others. We've seen that with the likes of Suarez and Kuyt and it helps the team press better higher up the pitch. His finishing is a bit like Kuyt's in that he needs that split second too long but even then compared to Mario.....

But... how do you know that he has his sister's knickers to wear? Or do you just assume that about most people based on personal experience?

Are we talking about Borini or Enrique?

i reckon he buys her some thongs and stuff, then wears them to training before passing them on to her.

Fair enough to an extent in that we wanted him sold, but the fact that he stayed and was fit and on paper, fits our style of play; it's stupid that he wasn't given any chances whatsoever

[Maxiedge]

Yep, 100% agree. It's baffling (especially as others seem to get away with shockers) but saying that, the manager does see his players in training week in week out and Borini might be absolute piss poor. He'd have to be not to get a game for us up front.

[Angryred]

Probably due to his Liverpool Missus that he stuck around as she probably told him staying right here until we get married!...lo & behold, got married then looking for a move!

[danperkins]

Never a fan of Borini, always said he was technically **** but sure he puts a shift in & would have given us at the very least... a bit of energy & effort up top last season. Watching Balo & Lambert amble along was soul destroying. Hopefully that corpse like movement upfront is never seen again at LFC.

Anyways, he clearly wasn't good enough for LFC & sure hopefully he can move elsewhere... for a decent fee. Good to him, he's gonna need it.

[Exiled_red]

So if he is leaving where will he go? I can't imagine there will be a queue of clubs looking to pick him up so I imagine his options will be fairly limited, I've not really seen anyone linked, are Sunderland still interested?

[danperkins]

Really says it all about how good he is.

[redmike65]

Swansea could do with a striker (after Ayew and Gomis as Marvin Emnes isn't anyone to write home about). Bournemouth would make good use of him I think, Eddie Howe could get a tune out of him.

Lol, thought they got married in Italy lol. My mate was at the wedding

[Helios Creed]

But he wanted to try and make it work here. You can't blame the lad, who would want to go to ****ing Sunderland?

I appreciate his ambition, but thanks to him we failed to get a last minute cheap striker. Although tbh we should have been securing a striker to help fill the gap created by losing the best forward in the country, before we blew all our funds on creative midfielders...
