Why do people not want borini, he said he was going to try and get in Liverpool starting 11 but failed, Liverpool are a bigger club than my beloved safc, that is a fact, we need a striker and borini did a good job last time he was here and if rumours are true and he is on his way then I am happy, if rumours are false then we should worry as we can't seem to get players signed I would also take Nolan good midfielder, sell carts. liability you can't piggy back opposing players in your box and get away with it.

I agree
What is wrong with wanting to play top flight football and wanting to fight for your place at one of the biggest clubs in england, granted things didn't go his way and you can argue he's not top flight but you can't knock him for effort and let's face it look at what we have had to put up with gomez buckley rodwell give me borini any day over these clowns with lens mvilla toivonen and borini in the midfield things could just bring a glimmer of hope back to the stadium of light

Agree too. He can do a job for us, 4 mill cheaper too. Just have to forget all the drama,s that went on before. Would any safc supporter have believed that bornemouth is a more attractive proposition than us. De guzman thinks so. In a way, I am pleased. I like the look of toivenan and we know what borini can do. As for charlie austin going to bornemouth, I will be gutted. He would be ideal for us. We need a hero, just like super kev and marco.

I don't mind borini but how can you value a player at 10 mil who has only played a handful of games in the past few seasons and only has a year left on his contract? bemuses me where that valuation comes from

Agree with this post,by all means go for borini he gives his all and is a grafter but that's about all,he is worth nowhere near the money being quoted and as it seems Liverpool were glad to be getting rid of him maybe we had a bit more room for negotiations.

{Ed024's Note - This is one of the longest running transfer sagas in the Clubs history - no time left in this window for more negotiations.}

I agree that we seemed to have been chasing borini forever ed,but I don.t agree that he was ever our 1st 2nd or even 3rd choice of striker we were looking at in this window just because Gus had a hard on for borini don.t really believe Dick had him down as a must have

{Ed024's Note - I think the signings so far show that Advocaat prefers to buy players that can go straight into first team - Kaboul, Lens, Mvila, Coates.
So I believe that he must have been very keen on Borini - I expect him to be in the first team after a brief settling in period.}
