I heard it was £16m. Anyway, it's a lot of money for seemingly a lot of talent which seems fair enough. The drunken tramp is allowed spunk cash on players so why can't we? Not see a great deal of this lad though I heard he did wreck Chelsea when the Mackems spanked them 3-0. If the Chelsea, le Arse or Mancs signed him, the media would salivate all over him. See Rod Liddle's piece in the Sunday Times about Kenny going for Power over finesse.
Typical reaction to a player in transfer window goes like this:
Player X linked to Liverpool for £16m. Forum reaction - He is shit, overrated etc.
Same Player on the verge of signing for Mancs for £17m. FFS! Why didn't we get him, he is awesome. Lost out in the market to them again etc.
Same Player again in shocking U-Turn signs for Liverpool for £15.5m. Waste of money etc.
It's gonna be a long summer .....
