Player Valuation: £80m
They seem absolutely convinced they are going to be getting a world class player in. It is quite amusing really. They are going on about Lacazette, Reus and Benzema and are carrying on like the spoilt housewife who's expecting a big tacky gift from her fella because he's been caught playing away.
The signing players early approach FSG ship have used hasn't steadied the ship and warded off the feelings of anger. Because the signings are all very average (or championship) players in someways it has just added to the anger. I think FSG had hoped they could do some business early and sit back on their laurels. The rats seem to think that this is the start of a huge spending spree later in the window.
This will be interesting to watch. There is no way in hell they could attract the names they are after. That's not down to Rodgers or the lack of FSG's ambition, it's just a reflection that they are a lot smaller than 4-5 teams in the league now who won't even consider them.
The anger at the lack of a big signing is going to grow as the window goes on. It will add more pressure to Rodgers once the season starts. The only way out I can see, is basically sign a complete has been to keep them happy for another season. They did this with Balotelli last season. Massively overated but enough of an oddball to keep the bellends from frothing for a season.
Another stop gap will be needed that they can rally behind and say who's the best in the world. I can see Tevez being that man, and I can hear the "better than Rooney, better than Ageuro, better than Messi" shouts now.
