How many strikers do they need?

Lambert
Origi
Ballotelli
Firmino
Ings
Sturridge
Borini
Sinclair

+Benteke

Surely they should focus on other positions in their squad.

Looks like Sinclair is on his way out, so are Borin and Lambert.

Firmino will play as a winger/AMC I'm guessing.

That leaves them with Sturridge (if he can stay fit), Balotelli (I'm sure they'll try to sell him but I doubt it will happen), Origi, Ings and Benteke.

They really should have spent that money on their defense and midfield
 
I would like to think that football clubs aren't so gullible that their transfer bids aren't rushed based on media conjecture of another club possibly bidding.
I think the problem is that Liverpool can't afford to take that chance. How are they to know if we're really interested or not.

I remember that before Pool signed Firmino, the media was buzzing that we had agreed a deal with hoffenheim to sign him. It's all pressure tactics from agents and clubs to get clubs to up their bid or risk losing the player to a rival.

I think Liverpool know that they wouldn't be able to match the wages offered by us, even if they would be able to match the transfer bid. So they have to move quickly to get their player, and in the case of Benteke, the fear that we might go for him was very real, especially since we lost Falcao and RvP in the summer are clearly in the market for a striker.
 
I'm outraged yet another player turns us down in favour of Liverpool. Next up is Ramos.
