Sky Sources: Fulham reject bid from Liverpool for Clint Dempsey #skydeadlineday

[bukie]

This ordeal may not have affected which clubs I root for (yet), but it certainly affects which club I will root against.

Edu to Stoke confirmed - gets a three year deal,

@FOXSoccer

Oh boy. We are now being told that Fulham have rejected ANOTHER Liverpool bid for Clint Dempsey.

This is nuts. Guessing its a game of chicken to see who can get a better deal.

 

Of course that could leave Spurs the chance to swoop in.

REPORT: Sky now reports NO LIVERPOOL signings tonight.

REPORT: BBC says "Dempsey move to Liverpool on brink of collapse."

Man. Teams really don't rate Dempsey. I know I'm not crazy and I know that my bias isn't deep enough to skew my opinion that much, but Deuce is an 8 mil pound player.

 

@SkySportsNews

Sky Sources: Liverpool's bid for Clint Dempsey was £4m & club refuse to offer higher. Aston Villa bid £5m plus £2m add-ons #skydeadlineday

 

Kinda see where Fulham is coming from in this. That's unacceptable.

All Americans have left the building at Ibrox. Boca to Racing Santander.

I really don't get it either, guessing it has to do w age more than anything. 4th leading scorer in the EPL last season. Still bugs the hell out of me to see Wenger talk about his admiration towards him then do nothing. Perfect chance to throw out a 6 million bid and steal him.

F YES

 

I hope he hangs a hat trick on Liverpool and twice that on Fulham this year.

[bukie]

All of a sudden I'm more than a little bummed that Spurs got shafted out of a CL appearance this year.

[USSoccer]

This ordeal may not have affected which clubs I root for (yet), but it certainly affects which club I will root against.

[shnsajax]

I wonder if we can get a bulk rate discount on jersey orders.

[wolf stansson]

Sorry, shnsajax, but I hope Clint scores a billion goals against Arsenal this year.

@piersmorgan: Would serve Dempsey right if nobody buys him. Arrogant twerp.

[expletive] Piers Morgan forever.

 

It probably says a lot about me that after all the abhorrent things that [expletive] has said and done about things that matter, that I finally take notice when he fronts on my favorite soccer player.

 

@rogbennett

Dempsey to Tottenham. That Being Liverpool documentary will be saddest piece of television since the Six Feet Under Finale

He's an Arsenal fan, so we can all taunt him via Twitter during their derby matches when Clint scores.

No worries, I am hoping for the same and will be walking around in his jersey with no shame. Besides the current state of the team and Stan Kronke pisses me off.

[Guest]

$9.6M transfer fee for Dempsey and he gets a three-year deal.

[USSoccer]

Between this and the Henry/Lucchino led Theo fiasco, I am firmly encamped in the "Liverpool/Red Sox" hate department.

 

Those guys are seriously jackasses of the highest order. They sold Charlie Adam for $5m and only bid $4m for Clint?

 

F them.
