So that's why he was released on a free by Liverpool, has now spent years in the Championship and is linked with clubs like Stoke and Swansea...

Baines released by us, signed to a championship team, then went on to join a team in not a great position in the league...

We get the fact you don't rate him mate, but throwing statements out their to justify it when those statements can be shown to be utterly flawed by listing a host of players who similarly got released as lids only to ply their trade in a championship team before coming back up the division is silly

Wilfried Zaha attracted interest from top clubs and was eventually signed by Man Utd, because he had potential and top clubs rated him. Oxlade-Chamberlain got massive interest and eventually signed for Arsenal from an even lower league.

Tom Ince is rated by Crystal Palace, Stoke and Swansea. There's a MASSIVE difference. Some players show the X Factor and display something special after coming up through academies. Tom Ince hasn't shown much special (in fact, most of his YouTube vids are from ONE game and that's what people cream over) and there's a reason nobody above the calibre of Swansea gives a toss about him, even when he's essentially on a free.

Lazy journalism linked him to those three clubs recently, only seriously linked a year or two ago to RS, concrete interest this window has been from those clubs I mentioned.
 
The fact he's only been linked to the teams tubey listed (which he hasn't he's been linked with us, spurs, and even arsenal at one point)

Means zilch. Baines, Jagielka, Lescott were not linked with 'bigger' teams when they came to us. They didn't do too bad either.

All of those players cost money - £6m, £4m and £5m respectively - whilst Ince would effectively be on a free and still nobody above the calibre of Swansea gives a toss.

Why did liverpool make a bid yesterday then?

Mate i'm sorry but fair enough you don't rate him but these reasons you're giving are so stupid.
 
Im not sure people have questions about his talent, I think the issue is his attitude and the fact that his Dad, who is quite possibly 1 of the biggest clowns in the game, follows him around like a bad smell.
