They backed Rafa with £23m.Originally posted by marcus50bucks View PostBollocks was he. When have you ever known Liverpool to spend 21m, 10m & 6m (on an unknown youngster) on players in one summer. Lets not criticise the borad too much because they backed Rafa in the summer. And please don't gove me this net spend bollocks
I don't care if you think net spend is bollocks because that is what we spent after we signed and sold some players.
You can't only count how much we spent and not count in the money we got back when we sold players like Bellamy for example.
Then you would really speculate in the same way as the **** journos love to do.Just believe and you never know what will happen.
According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.

The summer before Moores had to lend the club money to get Kuyt, we spent more this year than we ever have before, if Moores was still in charge we would not have gotten most of our players last summer.
Moores loved the club and did his best but did not have the money to take us further.

He did get them last summer but the point is that he need to get them in every window, or at least get the chance to get them.Originally posted by marcus50bucks View PostHe got his first choice players last summer so he's to say that he won't next summer?
One window isn't exactly enough is it?
Do you think that G&H will back Rafa with a lot of money when they can't even finance the new stadium?Just believe and you never know what will happen.

So he didnt get his first choice then did he?Originally posted by marcus50bucks View PostMalouda didn't want to join us fella. I remember Rafa critcising him about it too.

Malouda himself said he was open to it but also said he didnt feel wanted enough by anyone at LFC bar Benitez. Probably referring to Rick's speedy negotiation skill.

We got money from the CL and a bigger TV deal so we would probably have been able to spend more or less the same sort of money with Moores IMO.Originally posted by sonsofthedesert View Post

CMS , you are a clown of immense proportions , you have an ego the size ofOriginally posted by CharlieMansonsSquint View PostThink he started a poll on TLW asking which new owners - because it's dead obvious we're getting some according to you know who - the fans would want.
So in other words just another **** thread on TLW full of **** posts.
Nothing to see. Moving on......

Your wrong on the tv money, that doesn't come until this season is over as it is based upon where you finish, the CL money is not paid until September from memory. This means this extra money he had to spend according to you he didn't have. So your opinion means ****, Moores would not have had that money to spend so we wouldn't have got Torres, Babbel, Lucas and all the kids.Originally posted by AFII View PostWe got money from the CL and a bigger TV deal so we would probably have been able to spend more or less the same sort of money with Moores IMO.
I think we would have been able to spend £23m net with Moores.

This summer we sold the following players for a fee:Originally posted by sonsofthedesert View PostFrom Bascombe on 9th July:
I knew you would try and change the story to suit you twisted love of drama. He clearly states we are after Forlan, this is not to calm people down this was his opinion and what he reported and he was wrong.
People like Tom come on here with genuine concerns and talk about them, he is willing to be sensible and still posts when positive things happen and enjoys the good times. You only post when there is drama and problems and go AWOL.
Florent S Pongolle £2,700,000
Danny O' Donnell £100,000
Luis Garcia Atletico £4,000,000
Djibril Cissé £6,000,000
Craig Bellamy £7,500,000
Mark Gonzalez £3,500,000
Gabriel Paletta £1,200,000*
How many seasons have we sold so many players and made so much money? Rafa got Torres with player sales and a CL final not from G+H.
In real terms we spent **** all mate and Bascombe was right, the loadsamoney stuff was absolute bollox.
Bascombe may have suggested Forlan but how do you know we didn't enquire? Forlan was a simlar price to the one we paid for Torres and Bascombe was really just saying that talk of £30M strikers must stop in the end Rafa raised enough to get Torres.
Bascombe was 100% right about us being skint compared to the noises that were coming out from G+H.
