Do we have anoother big buy left?

[dww]

If we get £6m for Voronin I will be 100% convinced Rafa has Jedi mind tricks at his disposal.

Rafa had net 15 million to spend this summer so unless he can find some legend for 3 million, then I reckon we're spent up.

Unless he sells Alonso and buys Barry.

[Nicey]

I take it you believe Alonso should be sold then and replaced with Barry? Still can't understand this one myself, Alonso, for me, is a much better proposition that Barry.

No No Huge fan .. just think he is off .. although I think we have young talent coming through to fill the gap and Barry gives us more options .. esp on the left .. but imo Xabi is worldclass in every dept.

Rafael Benitez has confirmed he must sell again to bring Aston Villa midfielder Gareth Barry to Liverpool, but the Reds manager has no intention of selling defender Alvaro Arbeloa to Sevilla. (Press Association, 1510 BST)

Off the BEEB site. Pretty much confirms thing.

It's a sad state of affairs but he's got a plan.

Sorry If I'm slow off the mark but where have we been linked with Silva?

just saw that meself -

i think say £5m for pennant and say £3m for voronin and say £2m for Itandje (he hasn't gone yet has he?) then either one of finnan £2m or Arbeloa £6m - will complete our sales.

So roughly if we brought in £10-12m i could see rafa buying either a downing type player or maybe some crazy spanish winger like that riera we keep getting linked with.

If we sold Xabi for around £15m - then we would more than like sign Barry for around £15m.

One big buy- why not?

A flair player is what we need. If we sell Pregnnant, Voronin, Finnan and Itandje, we should have around 14m (err on the side of caution figures) plus the few million left from the budget might be enough for Rafa to go for Barry. I wouldn't go for Barry. I would wait for another season and see how Chabby took the criticism and how he responds from it.

We pay £19m to Spurs for Keene; they spend most of it to buy Bentley from Blackburn; who spend alot of that to buy Pennant.

Just think how much we would havre got for Pennat had we paid £25m for Keene!
