Unless we actually intend to buy the player after twelve months I'm not sure what the point is. I can't see the economic sense of it either as it means we'd have to contribute a percentage of his wages.
Supposing he comes, does well and inspires us to finish fourth but then we can't afford him next summer we're back to square one? Sorry but I don't see the merits of it. The owners need to be a bit more open if they're really intent on selling big names like Agger so that we can only aspire to bring in loan deals because we don't have the funds for bigger name players? Who was it that signed the cheques last summer for Adam, Downing and Henderson?
I do wonder about these owners and I'm not impressed by this news. I don't see it as a step forward particularly given the number of centre midfielders we've already got.
Problem is we dont have the funds and cant attract the type of quality we need to compete for top 4 so the loan gives us chance
to fastrack that situation to try and move the club forward.
We wasted so much money in the last 2 years the owners are now scared shitless to gamble again and Rodgers needs to restore
their faith as much as ours this season.
