There's no way he'd hit 40 goals. That's reserved for the absolute top-notch players like Ronaldo, Messi and maybe Suarez, and you need them as the main man at the potential detriment of other players. Which Liverpool is not about.
Yeah, that Bigirimana situation is ridiculous. He was Championship apprentice of the year with Coventry and made 24 appearances in his first season with us. Just when you think he's on the up, he managed only one cup appearance after the Benfica game. What a write-off last season was.
Bigi's 20, and it's clear Ferguson has no future at the club. Doubt Vuckic is in the first team plans either and would most likely go on loan. Dummett will be part of the 25 and probably Sammy too. There's enough spare slots in the non-HG quota after discounting the exiles to accommodate Abeid too, so there isn't really a problem with the squad list.
De Vrij went cheaply too. The advantage Blind has being he is versatile and can play in both defence and central midfield. With Carrick out and limited options, it makes sense to go for him.
Is it definitely a loan then? Seems like a very good buy to me regardless. Need one more centre back.
Loan according to Sporting's press release.

Did he not admit the bite like a few days after it happened after initially denying it?
According to him, Chiellini "suffered the physical result of a bite in the collision he suffered with me". Hardly sincere in his 'admittance'.
