Robbie Fowler going to Leeds for £11m!

[old.Munkie]

Subject to medical.

I am not a Liverpool or Leeds supporter but my view is that Leeds have got a bargain!

Sure is surprising Liverpool are willing to let him go - especially to the likeliest rivals in the Championship race.



Amazing what Phil Thompson can do when Houllier is off sick!

My god hours after your post and still no reply?

/me does a sympathy reply.

"I would have expected a bidding war over fowler, and Liverpool not to seel him to the first (low) offer. And selling him to a premiership competitor will come back to bite them in the arse."

I don't know or care who any of these people are. Hence no reply.

i thought it was a just a rumor, an old one at that, was this on the news or summit cuz i havint seen nothing... but if its happening well done to leeds for a good cheap deal

 

[Wij]

Yup, heard on radio this morning.

 

[old.[MAD]Lexx]

Yep,
This has happened
It looks like after a medical today he'll be moving and chances are Liverpool will be saying good bye to the championship...
Man, I think they are crazy, although saying that the last thing they would want is to wait it out like they did with McManaman, and then lose him on a Bosman free at the end of next season.

Being an avid Liverpool fan though I think this sucks, how can you sell a player who has averaged 1 goal every 2 games in his career??!!

Back to Fowler - do you think he will get a game at leeds with

Mark Viduka
Harry Kewell
Alan Smith
Keane.

Al in the strikers race >

 

[Ch3tan]

yes.

kewel is played on the left flank as standard now, a waste of his talents, but gets him regular games.

The others will have to fight hard for spots, and fowler is more than capable of winning one.

 

[xane]

Alan Smith looks as though he'll spend more time suspended than playing this season if he carries on like he did against Villa.

Man U manage to keep four top strikers happy, the "supersub" concept is the way to play, especially in Europe.

 

[Sir Frizz]

Dwight York may be going to Liverpool though as a possible replacement

 

[old.Rostam]

I'm a Liverpool fan so I'm not too happy with Fowler going. But I also think Fowler is wasted on the bench. He's not a very good substitute. He needs regular football so if he gets that chance at Leeds then good luck to him.
I hope he scores loads of goals as long as Leeds lose lots of games.

Stoke City suck some serious cock. Port Vale 4 ever!

Actually, no they're both shit.

Smith will be sold to Spurs.


Yorke won't be going to Liverpool. He may end up going back to Villa at a knock down £6m. (just a rumour).

Doesn't everone get offered free tickets to watch portvale.

I don't watch much football, however when I do happen to stumble upon the occasional Liverpool match Robbie Fowler constantly displays talent of no more than school-yard ability.

He fumbles, he shoots wide... only getting lucky goals once in a blue moon. Owen outclasses him in every way every time.

But hey, what do I care? I don't watch much football... ;-)
