Re: Ribery to Liverpool? WTF?

This is oficially the craziest news that's come out this transfer season. Ribery to Liverpool? WHAT? When the hell have they been able to afford a player who has a 80 million pound price tag on him, set by Bayern Munich?

Actually I would have let this go on a normal day. But I saw that it was odds on he'd join Liverpool, this was sort of necessary. Now the only player who'd arguably fetch them around 40 million is Fernando Torres and I do not think they would wanna sell Torres. Xabi Alonso would probably get them around 30 million from the circus but then again, not quite enough unless they are both sold! :D

Ribery would not work in the system that Liverpool deploy unless Alonso plays week-in-week-out which is NOT possible under the great Rafa's rotation policy. Ribery is the type that needs a great midfield passer to exist or a good wing back to back him up. Bayern had Lahm and France didn't have anyone so Ribery worked well for Bayern but not so for France.

He has also personally mentioned that he doesn't want to play in England because of the weather there so I think a move to Anfield can be ruled out for the time being. He also mentioned if he left it would only be to Real Madrid A.K.A the circus :P
