Jack Butland is a really promising talent for the future....could be the next Joe Hart...pleased about that deal......Ince and Sturridge I'm not so sure about yet.....

"sack the board, coach and get rid of FSG!! when will LFC learn from there earlier mistakes. They have wasted so much money on avarage/poor players. Are there not anyone in that club with ambitions, we need top class players instead!! "

"When you hire unproven managers from a small clubs, they will buy avarage players. And again british managers will buy avarage british players at a way to high price. with that policy, were are doomed to stay an avarage team for many years. PLEASE LFC, my wisch this year: a big manger name and top class players."

"We dont need any of these 3 players. we need: Llorente, Huntelaar, Gotze, Rodriques, Cavani, Hamsik, Moussa Sissoko, Mvila, Kouma, Sneijder, and we desperatly need a new left back."

"If the rumour about Sturridges agent is true the same stance must be taken with Butland and Ince. No buy out clause or sell on fees. Agents are the malignant growth of our game. They are somewhat further down the u bend than even Mancs. The whole of football must stand up to these parasites."

"Butland is an excellent signing. Its been a while since we had a young talented keeper at LFC. Sturridge, I think he will take his chances at Liverpool playing on the right with Johnson. Ince, good at Blackpool but can he step up?"

"Bless you Molby11, your footballing nuance is second to none! Please, please divulge on your 5 stage concept of operations for this fantacular, magical takeover you envisage! Sturridge, Ince and Butland will be class signings, as I'm sure the vast array of scouts sent by LFC to watch over these players would've told BR. Or maybe they too are FIFA 13 dreamers like other plastics!"

"only good news, of course I hope the three guy will seal the deal the soonest then we can concentrate on other targets all the remaining january time, heard that we are linked to Gameiro and Llorente, hope the second is true, pleased about that..."

"Jack Butland is good. But hey, does it mean non British players are no longer welcomed at LFC? How many of those we bought have met even half of our expectations? There are better quality elsewhere at affordable price than most of the over-hyped British players. This is not to say they are no good but currently we can get better elsewhere considering what we have done in the past few windows. YNWA"

"dont no why people are moaning about these guys coming in. liverpool are not a top 4 team any more and have been off the pace again this year so the top players in the world are not going to want to join. sturridge is gready but will score goals - something that we desperately need. butland should be a good signing. ince is still young, has pace and should be able to get a goal or two.

"I don't understand what is negativism against British players; would anybody complain if we brought talented players such as Rooney? another Gerard, Giggs, Bales and etc.It shouldn't be an issue where they are from although personally I believe that British team should have significant number of Brutish players in the team"

""redrob2005" - i totally agree, forget Ince and bring in Redmond and Butland. i would also rather we went for Demba Ba at £7m or Loic Remy at £10m than Sturride at £12m. the advantage with English players is they do not go off to africa cup of nations for weeks!"

"B 3 great additions to squad if this is true, good young english talent, excellent !! I beleive two future england stars n along with Raheem signing up it seems Brendan has LFC going in right direction. still need a good tall goal scoring centre forward though. Bring back Crouchie , good scoring record for both LFC N england. YNWA JFT96"

"I don't understand all those prejudices toward the British players, talent has not a card ideny, furthermore it's about three of the youngest talent around the respective England teams! Ince is an established U21s, Butland and Sturridge will become established senior England team! Believe me mates!"

"Not to sound negative...we have dropped the bar so low. Being LFC there was a time when the acquisition of Cavani or Hantelaar would be a given and on our terms. We would even have the audacity to test the waters with players like Falcoa / Ebrahimovich etc. Yes I know we aren't in a bargaining position anymore....the big question is how did we get to where we are now"

"Not the best of games by Ince tonight but he did show some great touches. He needs to work on his decision making and finishing. Not the fastest of players but he does better than what Downing has done for the past 2 years and that is by beating a man down the wings. Anything under 6M and I will be happy. "

"I think Sturridge could be a top star, he did well at Bolton when he had a run of games. Plus Rodgers can give him belief like he has done with Henderson (he can now makes a pass forward unlike sideways Joe)"
