Cisse and Bellamy for Yossi and Babel pretty much, think we came out on the good side but could have done better with that much cash

Can't say I have seen a lot of him, seems a big price jump from the initial £6.5million rumoured, but Walcott cost about £10million so maybe not too extortionate.

Is there a mistake on the website? It suggests that Babel has scored 24 goals in 11 matches? Surely this isn’t true? Please bear in mind I know little about Ryan Babel other than he is one of Holland’s recent teenage prodigies.

I’m curious to see him in a Liverpool shirt playing matches, I’d like to know what the fuss is about, he seems a bit too inexperienced to gain a regular first team place already, but if he is one for the future than I am happy Rafa has signed him.

can't really comment on this lad really, don't know enough about him to be excited or disappointed.
