I think you are right about the late bid to appease the fans, if he really wanted to spend the money he would have been working on the deal in early january. A lot of it probably had to do with the dead weight (Bentley, Keane, Gio) tied to the team in salary.
I think Rossi comes in the summer and he can work well with VDV, I would keep Crouch as well because of the mismatch factor he has against certain English teams, and almost every team in Europe

And that may be true, but in the words of John Henry, 'Liverpool didnt pay anything for Andy Carroll, Chelsea paid £35M.'
I think Carroll taking in crosses from Bale would be a scary sight for any defender. Well, hes a Liverpool man now.
