Liverpool are going crazy, I don't know what's going on, but I guess I prefer them spending a lot of money on footballers that are good but maybe don't worth these sums, then spending a little money on players like Poulsen, or getting Cole on a free transfer (though paying him tons of money every week).
The thing is he might be a good young player with potential but he´s not a proven player. In future if he goes on to be a superstar people will probably say he was a bargain, but whether he is or he isn´t can only be seen with the benefit of hindsight and right now the fact is it looks like you guys have way over spent.
It is just another example of how an England cap can slap an extra 10 - 20 mill onto you transfer value, and people wonder why managers look abroad for cheap talent rather than buying in home grown players.
Also, where exactly are you gonna play him when you already have Gerrard, Lucas, Maxi, Meireles, Spearing, Shelvey etc. in the midfield? Are you shipping some out or do you reckon Kenny will stick him back out on the wing like he used to be?
I don't like how the media adds unnecessary pressure on promising young talent by calling them the next [fill in the blank]? Then again, the media hype and being labelled the next so-and-so drives up their value and the wages they can command.
We've got Henderson, there's rumours about Phil Jones and Jose Enrique and Joey Barton are probable. Did Northern Rock go under and Kenny's savings are in there or something, what the everloving fuck is going on up there?
Sky Sports said something along the lines of 'expect a shock for Liverpool fans' and on Twitter some arsehole decided to say 'maybe Agger's going the other way' and TBH I wish I never read it because now my head can't accept another option. D:

Andy Carroll: £35m. Jordan Henderson: £20m. Adam Johnson: £6m. Liverpool, getting the worst value from the north east since 2010.

(But Liverpool better not start getting their pedobear on, or Arsenal will find itself with no players at all in a few years.... )
