Pay £ 17m for a right back? If you are currently spending 20 million pounds? At least Rafael Benítez has not disguised the fact Liverpool paying a premium for Glen Johnson to Portsmouth. "Sometimes you have to spend a little more," the Liverpool manager, said today as he waited for the England international to £ 80,000 per week, four-year contract-signing, and reduce frustration and to transfer the Anfield over the next days. Liverpool do not spend a little more. You will spend 7 million pounds more than they were recorded in January. However, it should not affect the total amount, which is an important conclusion for Benítez Johnson is in many ways.
Es sind Ereignisse rund um Liverpool, und nicht im Inneren, die ein Gefühl der Angst um das Geschäft an der Anfield Road in diesem Sommer gefördert haben. May change and, without prejudice, with Javier Mascherano in Barcelona to lift her skirt, while the search for a pay rise of Liverpool, Xabi Alonso and a serious purpose for Real Madrid. But now Benítez is exactly where he intends to be in the transfer market. Liverpool, as manager, said in the last months of last season, well only if a substantial part of the agreement this summer. Johnson, despite the costs met this requirement perfectly, we propose an affair with a finished product that was missing since the Reds defenders Markus Babbel, has been affected by the disease.
Financially Johnson is not the hit drama over the budget Benítez, it seems. Liverpool still had 7 million pounds of Peter Crouch to Fratton Park last year, money that now will travel to the transfer of Johnson written off, and the Spaniard is just, the poor, this summer. Even if he resists the advances of the Spanish giants for Mascherano and Alonso, Benitez could still spend approximately 30 million pounds to more aggressive targets if, as expected, he blows his finances with the remaining sales Alvaro Arbeloa, Andrea Dossena Andriy Voronin and Sebastian Leto .
It is rendered if the wealth of Chelsea and Manchester City, two clubs that the extension will require more than Liverpool, Benítez will struggle to be competitive and Gareth Barry Eastlands step would be a loss of more than Alonso represent the push for a transfer Madrid. With the rejection of a return to Chelsea and not entertaining the city to move when he wants the Champions League, Johnson has the Liverpool manager and his team early confidence vote. Neglect of all, it also adds another record in the English language by a team to meet the difficulties for the ratio of UEFA for "locally trained" or "association-trained" players a problem that Benitez could not afford to be.
"We are not in the first four of the Premier League can compete, if you spend money," said the Liverpool manager. "We were for a quality player and also someone who is Colombia because of the new rules of the Champions League. Glen Johnson fits both categories.
