Brendan Rodgers refuses to be drawn on Memphis Depay - but says Liverpool FC "project" is still attractive

........“If it’s right for the player, and the project is right for them to come and learn and develop, then if we’re not in the Champions League – which is probably highly unlikely – players will still want to come.
“Of course, they want to play in the Champions League.
“But if they’ve watched us over a few years, this is maybe a season we miss out on, but if we can regroup again, get some quality starters in for the summer, then we can go on another great adventure next season and hopefully get back in there.”

The "project" wasn't handed in on time last year, was it. It wont be handed in on time this year. I wouldn't bother holding hold my breath for next term, FSG, either.

Looking on the back of the echo this morning. HEadline- How i will attract stars to Anfield.

turn over, the headline relates to signing strikers.

Now i had one thought reading that. He nearly won the league and had 120 million to spend and he attacted Ballotelli and Ricky Lambert. How the hell is he going to do better than that with no champions league and less money?

This late 90's welsh sheep bothering look would lead me to believe that Kurt is the man to brenda's right.

Hey no offence Kurt its just what the GOT clique have suggested you do in your spare time !

Would be gutted actually if they got Depay. Hopefully Utd come in for him, he'd defo go to them instead

Sturridge likely won't play now again this season. If I was him I'd be pissed at rodgers over this latest injury. It was reported he'd be out for 4 weeks, 2 weeks later because he knew he was under massive pressure to win the Blackburn game Rodgers played him. He hasn't been seen since. Considering the [Poor language removed] storm he caused over the injury with England, I'm surprised more hasn't been made of this. Tho I suppose it's another excuse for rodgers not having sturridge fit.

This Depay fella, he looked decent at World cup, good prospect. Touted around for £12 million last season....

....now United/RS are desperate for something / Anything, he is now a £23 million !!!!!!

Just shows you should take a gamble sometimes

Seamus is the perfect example

If we hadn't gotten him for 60K when we did, who knows how much he would have gone for a bit later on?

Very true mate, but Depay has yet to do anything.

Too many wingers from Holland have been built up like him, Babbel, Elia ans Drenth, just of top of my head.

You see, when I think of Dutch players, my first thought always goes to strikers and centre mids

I never really think of wingers, so I think you might be on to something

The centre mids, centre backs and strikers tend to do well, and can see plenty more that can be had for much less than £10 million, Classie is brilliant, or atleast looks it at the level he is playing.

Isn't today the anniversary of the famous slip? Where's all the nostalgic gifs?!

State of that bedroom

He's definitely piled the pounds on since last seasons videos - looks like someone has been comfort eating..........

Tbf he's had a very good season been the star man in the eredivisie and led PSV to the title at only 21, his price was bound to go up a lot.
