Could be a great signing...

If we get another ten goal striker along side our current ten goal striker we would safely avoid the bottom three.

If that happened, we'd be challenging for a top ten finish.

Please tell me you’ve heard something and that this is a distinct probability.
I’m just being silly but both are probably available and we’ve been linked with the pair.

Hadn’t even bothered to read that one. Not a clue, not played first team. Could be a Lamptey or a Chris Holdroyd... Pls tell me it’s Holdroyd - what a player he was!

Two possibilities re the £14m figure
1 = it's bollocks
2 = It's accounting for an extraordinary wage demand (even by the standards we've been seeing with striker transfers this summer). If this is true Liverpool are prepared to take a lower sum than he is worth to get a highly paid squad player off the books

I want Big Divock and HULK. Hulky would have buried that Maupay header last night... and the keeper and the ****ing net and most of the stand behind.
That’s what we’re missing up top, someone who puts the fear of God Almighty into defenders.
We’re too ****ing penitent.

They seem to want a stupid amount of money for someone out of contract in 9 months

Balogun is an academy player with no league experience, he's not getting near a PL first team this season. At best he'd be a loan to league 1 or championship.

Origi would be £14m because he’s well into the final year of his contract.
He’s their 4th choice striker and has been there a while hence the £45k per week (when did that become not a lot of money BTW?)
He’d be a huge upgrade on what we have here, massive yes from me.
I work with a scouser, he reckons they are raising funds by offloading squad players for a massive signing, Mbappe according to him.

Does he rate Origi?
Some would say Lamptey was in almost the same position in January (ignoring the one substitute appearance).
Nketiah and Nelson are the ones ahead of Folarin, and in turn, they have the likes of Aubameyang & Lacazette well ahead of them. He might well be good enough for the first team this season.

A yes from me. Exactly the type of striker we need. Could easily get 10+ goals a season.
