If Rodgers sees something in Vestergaard that he can make work then you just have to back him I suppose. Rodgers though bennet was an adequate backup for our backline, i would rather get someone widely respected than a rodgers/congerton gamble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Nacho Posted 5 August 2020 Share Posted 5 August 2020 Surely people would prefer playing Vestergaard for a string of games over Morgan? Morgan can do a job for game or two, against more physical teams, but if he had to play a string of 10 games due to injury, he's not got the legs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but it's not a choice between the two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn Claw II Posted 5 August 2020 Share Posted 5 August 2020 John Stones is rumoured to be available for £20m. We pay £18m for Vestergaard. top-notch scouting.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, sorry, that's not a good enough reason for us to spunk £18m (or whatever) on this guy. Anyhow, just because they've bought someone else doesn't automatically mean we are buying him. Well, does it?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylanlegend Posted 5 August 2020 Share Posted 5 August 2020 This has the same ring to it as the Ghezzel signing. we all know he’s shit just can’t work out why the scouting team don’t? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 6 August 2020 Share Posted 6 August 2020 Surely we aren't going to go through with this. I'd get it if it was say Burnley, or Crystal Palace, and I think he would probably be quite good for either of those two from a style point of view. But for us it just seems madness. I can't believe it's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WigstonWanderer Posted 6 August 2020 Share Posted 6 August 2020 Not sure if it’s been mentioned, but Evans will be suspended for the first 3 matches I believe, so whoever we get needs to hit the ground running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AS78UK Posted 6 August 2020 Share Posted 6 August 2020 If we all can see it, how come Rogers can't. Better players available for similar money, all with a point a prove. Smalling, Stones spring to mind immediately. My biggest worry with Roger's is his transfer record and don't think we are big enough or play in a weak enough league where it doesn't matter.

Dames Posted 6 August 2020 Share Posted 6 August 2020 Rodgers carrying on the disappointing end to the season well into the transfer window then. Its like he doesn’t want us to be excited. This seems like a situation where Rodgers ego appears to be getting in the way, for one reason or another he rates this player and thats that. Rodgers is right, everyone else is wrong.
