I think allowing him to stay will seal the deal for us as opposed to his development

One thing I can guarantee is that Di Maria won't be wearing a Liverpool shirt next season.
Liverpool haven't had much competition in the transfer market for the players they've signed,think they would for Di Maria
I think Liverpool are in a postion where they can compete with most teams. Unless players are signing based purely on funds. Without pandering to their history too much, they have undeniable prestige, the only two clubs that compete on that scale in England at least are arsenal and UTD. I think most would take Liverpool over them two.

Seriously mate I couldn't disagree more. I still think UTD will attract bigger players & Arsenal will because they're based n London. Like I said Liverpool are signing players that none of the other big teams are interested in.
A Liverpool fan on here thought CL football would attract big players & make them keep big players,their Biggest player is on his way & they've signed Lambert.

With CL football next year and their name Liverpool might be able to compete should players like di Maria become available. Money talks though, so the Man utds/city, Chelsea etc could probably still outbid them if push came to shove.
Mind you Dortmund or Munich would be a better draw than any of them (imo) at the moment should they enter the fray and be willing to spend.
The key is how much they are willing to spend on wages, as most players will go to the club who pay most.

Neither I'm afraid, as a neutral I was not surprised to see our players leave for liverpoolnas they're an improving team. Not sure why people are so against pool. Not old.enough to rememeber their dominance but it strikes me that its the same envy that makes utd so hated.
To be fair mate utd couldn't hold onto Ronaldo when in a much stronger position than what pool are now. Latino players all wanna end up in Spain. Utd also missed out on fabregas twice and paidmore for a Spanish less.proven equivalent whilst Chelsea.have spent 30m on a striker after 1 good season and appear happy to get rid of lukaku who's proven.

I think the key is to get the Suarez deal wrapped up ASAP and make all the funds available to rodgers. It might seem like a good idea to play hardball and screw them for an extra few mil, but if you leave it to late al a spurs and Berbatov for example, you dont end up with enough time to get new players in and settled with a decent pre season, if at all.
I think many will look at United with the new manager even without CL football to entice. I think Liverpool will make good signings but will not attract the "big" names. I think Wenger still has a cachet around Europe and so can still entice players again though not the "big" names. City have an abundance of riches already. The one side I wonder about is Chelsea and what they will do in the summer. If Mouriniho can buy big and replace a number of key positions then they could be an interesting side to challenge next season
I genuinely think Chelsea will win next season. IF costa fires. They were missing one player last year (a decent stiker). What with African cup of nations coming up city could lose if over Xmas as their or, without him last season dipped massively. Ealy days of course. But that's where I'm laying my money this season. Mourinho served me well as got place money at 16/1 last year.
Interesting. I think Costa will either fire like Suarez did last season or he'll be like Torres and not hit a barn door. There won't be any middle ground

Hang on, before you signed him according to you he wasn't that great and definitely wasn't worth anywhere near what you've just paid for him. now he's your player he's suddenly cultured with an eye for a pass?:rofl:

A straight fight between city and CFC probably
So because they dominated late 70's into the 80's that means that players will want to go there over Utd,Arsenal,City,Chelsea,Madrid,Barca,Bayern etc?
Deluded it is then.
A change of opinion... surely not. I don't see him as a wide player (ok he's not a striker) that will transform a game. I just don't
I agree, and Chelsea's track record isn't great with big money strikers. I personally think drogba in as coach and Lukaku as main man. But it appears that not gonna happen.
I agree. Where City have had a plethora of goalscorers and Liverpool had Suarez last year, Chelsea have seemed to be lacking that 25 goal a season player. Mind you they are thin on the ground. I still think Lukaku is a bit hit and miss
no, my point was that they are a big name because of their history, not that players would join them for it.
And that the bitterness shown towards them by British fans is for the same reason most 30 year old fans have a dislike for UTD. Jealousy. Last year Liverpool were supported by a lot of neutrals, now all of a sudden nobody likes them? Why is that?
of the English teams, Chelsea and City are top based on financial reasons. And obviously offer a better chance of success currently, but if history has no basis on a player joing why would a player join arsenal over Liverpool when in the last decade Liverpool have won more?
Id like to see Lukaku given a full season though. I agree he can be hit and miss but is still young. Look who sturridge flourished, especially early season when he was the main man. Lukaku got 15 goals last two seasons with teams who lets be fair, won't create anywhere near the chances Chelsea will.
