    From what I’m reading as long as he has permission he can act as agency for the player.

    :emoticon-0102-bigsm You are in a mood this morning! It's perfectly straightforward for someone to give their proxy to someone else to sign on their behalf. Do you really think we would enter into a contract deemed to be invalid? Under Maggie Byrne maybe,but not under these fellas!

    That's exactly what I thought was going to happen when we first arrived in L1.

    I know you’re trying to undermine KLD and Speakman with this as it’s your modus operandi on here now but there’s nothing wrong at all either with Rusyn being a Liverpool fan or the way his contract was signed and registered.

    That's all well and good but it was a cousin who carried out the medical ...

    ... and he couldn't be there so his gran went in his place.

    It’s what should have happened. It was the perfect opportunity. Plenty of us advocating it. Feels a bit surreal the extent to which we’re doing it now and with the levels of competency with which we’re doing it.

    I’ve longed for us to be a smartly run club for as long as I can remember, now we’re amongst the most smartly run in the world (sounds like hyperbole but I genuinely believe that). It’s complete dreamland for me.

    He's no more a Liverpool fan than I am.

    He'll have his own favourite Ukranian club and has seen Liverpool on TV ...

    ... I've noticed players will often 'support' a club because they've admired a particular player who plays in their position and they'll want to emulate them ...

    ... let's hope it's Salah in this case <laugh>

    Martin O'Neil 'supported' Sunderland because he'd grown up admiring Charlie Hurley but was never a fan who'd go to games.

    I don't know about football contracts, but I once exchanged contracts on a house when I was working out of the country.

    You'd have to ask my now retired solicitor about that, he sorted it,but I still live in it!

    That's the way it is. I've worked in Asia in the long ago, and you see Liverpol and Utd shirts everywhere, old and new.

    I think he means a target man. I also think he’s saying ‘doesn’t always need’ or hope so. He’s right that a variation is good like. At times last year we were crying out for Stewart to be fit to ‘keep hold’. I think btw that Burstow will do that. He grafts his knackers off and runs the lines and gaps with pace and power.

    Looks truly two footed which obviously covers two positions ...

    ... bilingual anarl so the French lads will be able to mock Mowbray's accent without him knowing <laugh>

    Similar tale...when we sold out house in France in 2011, which we'd been renting out for 2 years after returning to England, we drove down to Solicitors office near Limogue to complete the sale to a man we'd never met, only to learn he'd signed the contract a week earlier by post as he lived in the South of France and our solicitor had signed on our behalf to complete the transaction and we didn't need to have a 3 day mini break thinking we were needed in person.
    We were just happy the sale had been completed and never said a word.

    Do you definitely know he's bilingual mate? I've seen he and Pembele are conversing in English on their social media today so i was hoping it was the case that they both are (though there's obviously a translation at the press of a button on there).

    It's about the only thing I would personally change about our recruitment, I would only bring in players that can speak a passable amount of English. With a core of French lads it's less of an issue for them but seeing Jewi at times last year and he seemed a little lost.

    I suspect he'll have as much luck denigrating KLD & KS as he did defending SD & CM ...

    ... this club has been totally transformed, anyone who doesn't accept that is really missing out on a wonderful time.

    Extraordinary to draw attention to the fact a player supports someone else.

    Doesn’t that apply to 99.5% of professional footballers?

    Hume mentioned he was a Chelsea fan in the most recent 'question of the week' video. I must admit, he did go down in my estimation a little, I mean come on, Chelsea?!
