Hang on, when did £100k a week, ala £5m a year become a non significant wage to clear off your books
Who's liverpool no.2 Brad Jones ye?
Jaysus they will regret this if Mignolet gets an injury..
Imagine have to start with Jones at the Etihad
He was only on circa. £5 million a year at Liverpool. Hardly ground-breaking.
They'd have been as well off keeping Reina, not signing the fraud that is Mignolet and pumping the circa. £20 million they'd save (£10 million transfer fee plus £10 million in wages over four years) on a proper centre-back last season.
Reina didn't cover himself in glory there. His fall from grace has been so spectacular, he's a liability for Liverpool these days.
Reina's been such a disgrace this season I bet his name was in all three envelopes Brentan produced back in August.
Mignolet made a bollocks of himself at the Council House last season too, lest we forget.
He's a fecking charlatan of a 'keeper.
Hmmm:
Go ahead and find my quotes on Mignolet and you'll just endorse my point.
Reina did look shaky toward the end of his Liverpool career but he's still a better bet than Mignolet in my view.
Mignolet's final season at Sunderland, in hindsight, is grossly exaggerated.

Honourable mentions to Mignolet, Zabaleta, Ivanovic, Vertonghen, Bale, Ki, Mulumbu, McCarthy, Lallana, Long, Ba and Defoe.
Good. They can have Vermaelen while we sign Cuadrado. Everyone's happy.Sky are saying that Barcelona have moved ahead of United in the ''race'' for Vermaelen.
So we've actually gone from considering a bid for Cuadrado to making one in the space of feck all time? Seems like the preparation has been done before the consideration
Not happy with that! Why don't we consider and prepare bids anymore ffs, etc?So we've actually gone from considering a bid for Cuadrado to making one in the space of feck all time? Seems like the preparation has been done before the consideration
Seems @BarneyLFC is in love with @nahealai . He just need to read nahealai's threads in generals to know what a bad idea it can be.
His last season is grossly exaggerated yet you had him in your "honourable mentions" for the midway team of the season...

Highlighting a few good performances in the halfway point of the season doesn't mean I rate the lad. Also, I stated specifically that "in hindsight", his performances that season were grossly exaggerated.
What's wrong with that?
Just for the record, do you rate Mignolet highly?

I think in terms of price. It's one or the other, and they can't get Marquinhos so they're targeting Cuadrado?Why would Cuadrado be a back-up option to Marquinhos?

Well they've been neglecting buying a CB for over four years now, who's to say they won't carry on? Well, they did sign Mathieu to be fair.Yeah, but Vermaelen would become the priority then, not just merely a stand-by option.
What if Barca were left with Dani Alves, Cuadrado and no new centre-backs?
Reina wasn't that great for Napoli last season IMO. That said, don't understand why he'd go to Bayern when they've got a keeper who many regard as the best around. Unless Pep has a bizarre fit on, Reina is barely getting a look in. Don't understand why he wouldn't rather go elsewhere and play regular football. He's not great but I'm sure there's a few sides out there that'd take him as their regular.
As soon as you see a tweet that starts with 'according to Sky Italia' the best advice I can give you is to stop reading.Have Sky Italia been at all accurate regarding Vidal? I can't remember who said what anymore
