ujpest doza Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I cannot believe Downing is being seriously discussed here. Why? If you take the ex boro and ex mackem blinkers off he's a bloody good player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I honestly haven't seen Downing play well for about a year and a half. Not that I follow him closely mind. Anyway, we won't be signing him so move along. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Anything is an upgrade on our left side, that doesn't mean we literally need to sign anything, we need genuine quality (Ba, Cisse, Ben Arfa quality). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which in our current situation and time of year we won't get unless we pay extortionate prices for and even then we'll struggle as players won't want to come to a team in a relegation battle.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 The problem with Downing is that he would be expensive and average, therefore not ticking any of our boxes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 We're apparently in advance talks with Loic Remy. If that turns out to be shit there are still plenty more options out there. I wouldn't exactly be opposed to signing Downing for the right price, I would just expect him to be at least 2nd choice which leaves him in a similar place to that he's in at Liverpool.

Tooj Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Isn't Downing on quite substantial wages? He'd be Pardew's wet dream in a 4-4-2 though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair though, i've never heard of Loic Remy and don't know where he plays or anything. Downing has a premier league track record, wouldn't need time to settle in the country/area or league etc unlike someone from abroad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was shocking under Dalglish and hasn't done enough for Rodgers to be considered a starter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TherealnorthernTOON Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 If we are going to play with two wingers cutting inside it is even more important to have the right foot at the right side to provide width. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
