    If we have the money we need to rival that bid!

    Love Mata, no idea why he seems to be not wanted at Chelsea, I know they have great options in his position but none of them are any better than Mata I think

    Strange that I'd go for Mata any day as Oscar flatters to deceive

    For our team I'd favour Mata because Coutinho does what Oscar does but with a little extra in midfield.

    I think Mata would play right wing for us with suarez left. Whilst Moses would play left with Suarez right.

    According to L’Equipe, Mamadou Sakho looks set to join AC Milan. The Paris St Germain defender has also been linked to Liverpool and Lyon but it is reported that Milan have spoken with the player this weekend and made it their priority to secure his signature.

    Reports in France suggest that one or both of Marseille’s Ayew brothers could soon be on their way to the Premier League. According to L’Equipe, West Bromwich Albion are interested in highly-rated 21-year-old Jordan Ayew, while fellow forward Andre Ayew has been linked to Liverpool, Everton and Tottenham.

    Stewart Downing has revealed Newcastle enquired about signing him prior to his move to West Ham. Downing, who left Liverpool to join West Ham earlier this month, made his first start for the Hammers in their goalless draw against the Magpies on Saturday.

    Assaidi is a bit of a headless chicken. Has tricks, can beat a man but only ever goes down the line, cuts back, then beats the man again before putting in average crosses. Haven't seen him with much else to offer in terms of link up play or cutting inside.

    Granted he's not played much but if we can get the £3mil back we've spent I'd take it.

    Mata - no chance. No idea why Chelsea would want to get rid of him when he was the player of the year last year for them.

    Moses - not sure. Could be a decent signing, but could be another Adam Johnson. Looks good when coming on for Chelsea when they're 2-0 up and has 30minutes to just go and express himself, but when he's being told to make a difference from the start can he do it?

    Don't know why everyone is dismissing our chances of getting Mata if we were to bid. If Chelsea want to sell him and the teams bidding are LFC, Arsenal, Spurs and United, then you won't want to sell to your rivals, both geographic (Arsenal, spurs) or league (united). Chelsea would definitely favour him going to liverpool, obviously what Mata wants is a different Mata all together, but hopefully if Chelsea were to push him enough he would come here.

    why cos we are lfc, with no cl, no wages, no nuth'n!!!!

    if chelsea want rid he will go to athletico. there is no way in hell he is going to an english club... i don't believe in the slightest he will be let go either.

    why on earth would chelsea push a top player at us? cos rodgers licks mourinho's balls?

    Have you read my post at all?

    I said IF they are wanting to let him go and the 4 bidders are the ones I mentioned, then Chelsea will view Liverpool as the least objectionable of those 4.
