As this summer is set to be the last biggest spending transfer window before the new UEFA Financial Fair Play rules come into effect, it is going to be important for Kenny Dalglish to spend as much as he can but at the same time being wise about it.
Dalglish has already started off on a good foot by buying Jordan Henderson from Sunderland. FSG are set to back Dalglish with more signings this summer in line with their policy of buying young players. This policy makes a lot of sense as in future transfer windows you will not be able to splash out big money and buy players unless your club has actually made this money themselves and not have it given to them by their ‘sugar daddy’ owners. So it is high important Liverpool have as much cash at their disposal this summer to buy the targets they want.
FSG have set out a budget for Dalglish but at the same time, Dalglish is able to boost this budget by selling some players he does not need. Kenny can easily raise an additional £20million this summer by selling on some players we do not need. Here is how:
1) Sell Christian Poulsen. Although the Danish player has said he wants to stay and fight for his place at Liverpool, I can not see Kenny keeping him if he gets an offer for him. Stoke are reportedly keen on signing Poulsen and a fee of £2million has been mooted.
2) Sell Paul Konchesky. Reports are suggesting that Wolves are interested in signing Konchesky. This is great news as I can not see a future for him at Liverpool after he joined us at the start of the season from Fulham. Liverpool should be able to get about £2million for Konchecky.

we need buyers for them rejects to get money from they’re tranfers. I think the reason were considering selling Meireles is that hes the only player we will get a profit on then making a loss
we are considering selling raul merieles because he will not start next season and hes 28, last chance to sell for profit, coupled with the fact that he had his best goalscoring season ever last season and those goals all came within a month, he is over-rated. Appreciate his goalscoring patch and ability to run of the ball but anyone who thinks raul is a top player is naive, great move provided we can seal adam deal.
Sell, joe c £5M, poulsen £2M, maxi £4M,ngog £5M,G johson £15M, miereles £13M, for build new squad like hazard, marin, C adam,G clichy
its gonna be hard to unload all this deadwood. have faith in kenny though cant wait to see our squad next season.
although he did not score so much 4 me he is a qaulity player… his moves when played in d middle
I’m sorry pilki but I disagree with you..
Firstly Meireles is ONLY 28 so he has a good 3 years, at least, left in him. We need some experience in the side. Look at how Arsenal falter every year because they don’t have that steel or maturity.. Plus he is an integral part of Portugal so also has international experience.
If Kenny wants pass and move, plus flair then Meireles is the player to give it to him.. Did you see his understanding with Suarez? Because, they come from that Latin mould..
Also we’ve been crying out for squad depth so to have him there interchanging with Adam or Henderson (although I’d definitely start him before these two) or perhaps even Lucas that would be brilliant (he does the job of holding midfielder for Portugal).
He was one of the top 3 players for the club last year.. If we sell him I’d be really upset..
According to Suarez 1 of the reasons he came to LFC is that we have alot of Spanish speaking players, atm it looks like we are replacing them with English players.
@Pilki i appreciate your opinion but Meireles is a top player and still has years left in him, we need a squad not just a first team to compete for cups and titles. That’s why Utd n Chavski are soo good they replace like for like players when making substitutes, that’s what we need so selling Meireles dosn’t make sense. If you have good squad players, it will help the team being less predictable so we can play different formations etc and we will be able to rest our big players for more important games which will mean less injuries.
I think U’re Mad wit 2 head’ How do we sell Meireles n get Adam. Daz nt mek sense’ Ok. sell Meireles nd Gerrard n get Him. King K nd Damien C’ do waz gud 4 d club. We’ve many players who are nt enough 2 play 4 Livapul! Lyk Maxi,poulsen,konchesky,kyrgiakos,johnson,cole,ngog. E.t.c. Loan-spearing,flano,robinson,shelvey.
Is this how you write at work? You should learn to be more literate
id rather us make a loss selling other players than sell miereles to make profit. Fact is these extra players are sucking wages, burden on the dressing room and are sucking atmosphere with not getting games. good guesses on the players to be sold
Oh and I forgot to mention that Meireles has only had one season in the premiership and he was up to speed within 6 months (with the help of KK and Steve Clarke admittedly) He can only get better..
Why are people saying sell Johnson? great RB.
