  As a Liverpool fan, Suarez is doing all he can to make me dislike him. He's doing an even better job than Torres did towards the end. He should keep his mouth shut and show some gratitude and respect to the club and fans to be honest. Also needs to take some responsiblilty for his actions instead of whinging about people isolating him as a result of his dumb decisions. He's an amazing player and will be missed, don't think he's given us any choice but to let him go. We're just playing the "you're not going anywhere" card for 50 million.
  
  As for Mkhitaryan i really like it, huge gamble though and i think if he comes in we'll be saying by to Downing and possibly Shelvey too. Big price tag but he has all the attributes needed to be a top goalscoring attacking midfielder in the prem.
  
  Mignolet is also a top replacement for Reina at a bargain price really because Pepe will leave for more than 8-10 mill. Mignolets stats have been at the top for the past couple of years and much higher than Reina with a worse defence than ours, so again i like it.
  
  We're also in for Luis Alberto, a 20 year old Sevilla player who has been making a name for himself at Barcelona B. Looks like another exciting player and signing. Brendan Rodgers is doing a brilliant job so far in my opinion.
  
  In Rodgers we trust.

  They need more than a goal keeper.

  Pepe Reina to Barcelona I reckon. Valdes has said he'll be leaving at the end of next season anyway, could be earlier if Reina signs.

  Liverpool have completed the signing of Spain U21 forward Luis Alberto, in a £6.8m deal from Sevilla.
  
  The 20 year old had been on loan at Barcelona B, but the Reds swooped after the Spanish champions decided against taking up their option on the player.
  
  Good signing?

  that much is obvious, just talking about business they are actually doing and what it means for Reina

  He is relatively untested at senior level, but has potential according to reports. will take a couple of years to get used to living in Liverpool and the pace and physicality of the Prem

  I'm not too certain about Reina leaving, i'm 50/50 whether he actually will go. We've been needing competition at keeper for a while now, they signed Doni and thought he would be just that however he just went on holiday one day and didn't bother coming back. Reina has been coasting for the past few years and made quite a lot of mistakes, Mignolet will either give him a kick up the arse he needs to fight or he'll just drop off and probably go to Spain.
  
  Alberto looks good, the only problem i can see is we now have a squad full of wide attackers and not out and out strikers. I'm sure it will not be like that for too much longer like.

  £8-9m seems a lot to spend on GK competition. Especially when there doesn't appear to be loads of cash about, and other areas needing to be strengthened.

  I tend to agree with this, plus i think Mignolet wouldnt be happy leaving certain first team football to sit on the bench.
  
  Reina out to cover the cost and get a new striker asap

  A friend who lives on Merseyside has told me that the talk at Annfield is that Renia is willing to risk his place in the Spain squad by sitting on a bench... especially now that Iker Casillas form has been question, and Victor Valdes has been outed as being a bit shit, so a move to Barca would be his choice if they can get him first team football.
  
  But agreed, Mignolet wouldn't be moving to sit and warm a bench.
