Some reports suggest that Liverpool have made Spartak an opening bid in the region of £7m with the Russian club holding out for closer to £10m.

Here we go again, we'll go up to £7.5 million, then Chelsea or Spurs will come in with a £10mil bid.

Our transfer policy is admirable, but naive, and considering we are competing with the best (and richest clubs), downright stupid.

On Yeh? So you are an expert on negotiating then?
 
Yeah! Another Brazilian DM with a dodgy knee.

Lucas and the Romulan can sit on the bench speaking Klingon together telling each other about their injuries!


In more seriousness; decent prospect as long as he can stay healthy.
 
so this rumour is another red herring then,

if we wanted to sign players who had dodgy injuries but could be world class, surely we would have taken a chance on papa of all people.

Papa's only played 4 minutes of football so far this season. Glad we went for Sahko instead.
 
So Suarez should have been sold last summer then? Sorry RS but IMO Reina wanting to play for Barca one day was perfectly fine with me, he'd been a top keeper for us and was genuinely passionate about LFC. At least Reina had the decency to flirt with Barca (a team who he has obvious links to anyway), Suarez was flirting with fecking Arsenal ffs.

Most important of all though was that he was the perfect keeper for Rodgers style of play. His footwork and distribution was clearly the best in the league, his aerial ability was suspect granted but our dominance in the air hasn't got any better since he left has it. Can't do much about it now obviously but I didn't understand the logic of the loan deal/keeper change then and I still don't understand it now.

If we had someone to replace Suarez, sell him.
 
Essien to AC Milan.

Could mean De Jong isn't needed. Would take him on loan certainly.
 
Barcelona have confirmed that Neymar's parents got £34m of the £48.6m paid for the Brazil striker in June.

The 21-year-old's former club Santos received the other £14.6m.



Santos got truly screwed over in that deal then <laugh>

Despicable little rat that Neymar. Imagine if every player/agent/family started demanding tens of millions under the table.
 
Reports on SSN saying Banega (sp?) possibly going to Sunderland!

Wtf?!

This!!! <yikes>

If he could get over his injury problems he'd be the perfect partner for Sakho.

Essien to AC Milan.

Could mean De Jong isn't needed. Would take him on loan certainly.

Downside would be that we have three loans which would be a massive impact come the summer. although, having said that, I'm not sure we'd notice Moses or Cissokho leaving <laugh>

Yes, its immoral and shouldn't be allowed to happen but if Barca was willing to pay the 48m then why would they give a **** where the money went?

I'd love to have him at Liverpool and I can honestly say I couldn't give a **** if he become rich from the deal so long as we didn't spend more than we wanted to.

Its the third party ownerships and player sell on percentages in Brazil. They're a ****ing scam.

Remember the Tevez and Masca to West Ham scandal. The clubs there don't stand a chance.
 
This!!! <yikes>

Say Liverpool approached Santos at the same time as Barca, and offered Santos more than Barca, but unlike Barca refused to pay Neymar's dad. Neymar would be laughing in Ayre's face rubbing his thumb against his fingers in the international sign for 'where the dough?'

Not sure you approach Santos at all. Its third party ownership bollox isn't it? In which case, you speak to the agent/third party owner and they broker the deal.

As I said though, if Liverpool were prepared to pay 48m for Neymar, I wouldn't give much of a **** where the money went. I would care if we only wanted to pay 30m and had to pay extra for agents etc.
