Torres, Alonso and Masherano all say hi. You do not sell your best players if you're trying to build something.
Lets sell Suarez, Lucas and Pepe while we're at it aswell eh, they should bring in some big money so we can get more players in, just not as good as the ones sold though
You sure about that, Real sold Sneijder, VDV, Robinho, etc, etc, etc. Barca sold Ronaldinho, Deco, Yaya, Eto'o, then Ibra.
All teams, every single team in the world sells their best players, yet fans always spout the top teams never sell their best players line. Arsenal have, Chelsea have, City are desparately trying to (
) Utd have, Real, Barca, Inter, AC, Bayern... but its too good for Liverpool to do it?
Some of those teams replaced those leaving top players with more expensive players, some with less expensive some of those less expensive players end up better and some of the more expensive ones end up worse.
They sold VDV for 10mil and bought Kaka for 60, VDV is currently the better player. They sold Robben for what 25mil, and got Ozil for 18 or so, Ozil is currently the better player.
When you think you've got a good deal, you sell, simple as that, Liverpool aren't above it if Real, Barca, Chelsea and Utd aren't.
Agger isn't worth 20mil, Liverpool fans seem to somehow believe they have the best striker, central midfielder, DM, two cb's, think Johnson is the best right back, Enrique is the best left back, and Reina is the best goalkeeper in the league for the past umpteen years..... if any of that was true.... you'd have won something.
Outside of LIverpool fans I've seen exactly no one claim anyone outside of Reina(at times, not currently) and Gerrard(at times not currently) and Torres(at times, not currently) were amongst the best players in the league.
Pool fans seem convinced that a huge portion of the squad is amongst the best players in the league, hell a bunch of Liverpool fans think Maxi is a great player.... because he's barely scored or assisted in three years but managed 2 hatricks against two joke performances from the other side to make a single season look half decent.
The problem here isn't Agger's supposed pricing, Rodgers selling his best players, Liverpool being above anything, its Liverpool fans delusional thinking.
EDIT:- as for saying he's much better than Lescott, from what I recall he has in say the past 5 years, had two fantastic years for Everton, one ok one(I forget if it was injury hit, I think it was injury hit around him which effected the entire defence), 2 years at City in which one was getting used to his team, the next was first team in a title winning squad where he was one of the best defenders in the league. Agger isn't better than Lescott.
