Liverpool Don’t Need £15million Joe Allen
Liverpool Don’t Need £15million Joe Allen
Matt Stanger of F365 makes a very valid point with regards to the £15million Liverpool are apparently willing to pay for Swansea’s midfielder Joe Allen.
While I’ve previously likened the young Wales international’s playing style (not quality) to Andres Iniesta, I fully agree with Stanger’s argument in this article: the money can be better spent elsewhere and there are already other current Liverpool players capable of buying into Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers’ playing philosophy.

Coutinho the pride of Inter
Scott Fleming of Football Italia casts his eye on Inter Milan’s young starlet Phillipe Coutinho who looks to be quickly developing into a first-team regular under new coach Andrea Stramaccioni.
I watched him wreck all sorts of havoc against Tottenham’s defence in the Champions League a few seasons ago, and picked him to be a future star, but Leonardo’s replacing of Rafa Benitez resulted in Coutinho’s disappearance from the starting XI.
Glad he’s now seemingly back on track for great things.
