The media have gone in to overdrive in recent days – you would think they had already spent £25 million of Liverpool’s money on Valencia’s David Silva, but the reds boss insists that the player is moving down in the list of transfer targets.
Benitez admitted the reds were interested but it seems the reds do not appear to want to break our record transfer fee for the player.
“It is true that we were asking about the situation with him [Silva].
“But we are not happy with the situation now and he will not be a target for us.”
The 23 year old signed a 7 year contract with Valencia in July 2007.
Yes Silva is a great player and it would be nice to see him playing for Liverpool. However, we already have Riera on the left side so as far as I can see he’s not a player we desperately need. We need a right midfielder and a striker to play alongside Torres. So I wont be losing any sleep if we dont get Silva. I think Ashley Young and probably someone from Spain! I think we should try to get Bojan from Barcelona.
Another good player that yet again we can not get to Melwood, I really do give up with our transfer policy. What a load of crap we cannot get even Silva to Anfield, he is ready made for the role along side Gerrard, oh well looks like another s**t summer signing average players that will only then come and go.
