Translation:

Please Liverpool, buy The Plank and make me a lot of money before the window shuts!

Exactly! It's the agents job to increase the value of his player. Could be very accurate or just a tactic to increase the deal....they know how desperate we are. Last day transfer deals!...hate them! <steam>
 
This plank or whatever you want to call him is not on a plane this evening then you can forget this transfer. So agreement on the fee has to be done then he needs a medical and then his registration needs to be transferred before 2300 TOMORROW. All that assumes that he has enough international appearances to qualify for a work permit!

If whoever it was above was not just messing about regarding Ayre's whereabouts then is Plank being used as a blind whilst we do a bit of business elsewhere?
 
****ing yids now involved. I'll see if I can get hold of my mate at lunchtime.

Well if he doesn't go to spurs then it's clearly because of the money, we're currently more likely to finish above them in the league and we play much better football, we also have one of the best players in the world atm.
 
I still think it'll happen. Pretty much every one of our targets gets linked to Spurs, a mixture of lazy journalism and people on twitter trying to be funny. He looks a good player? What we need? Not really, but if he's of the right quality I'm all for it.

Still think we're desperately short in CM but I guess we're going to have to judge Rodgers judgement on this one. Hopefully we can get Lucas back up and running and Allen to have an injury free period. Next few months will be crucial in our long-term future.

Yeah this is what we were saying lastnight

Club V Club we're the better option all day

I cannot see Spuds splashing another 15 mill on another winger when they bought 2 in the summer! Surely not

Good analysis here on a guy whos seen him play a lot!





International broadcaster John Bradley, who covers the Ukrainian League, says it will be money well spent if Liverpool can strike a deal


Liverpool target Yevhen Konoplyanka has been described as the best Ukrainian player since Andriy Shevchenko.

The Reds are hoping to tie up a deal for the 24-year-old before the January transfer window shuts at 11pm tomorrow.

Liverpool have opened talks with Konoplyanka&#8217;s club Dnipro for the attacker, who is valued at more than £15m.

International broadcaster John Bradley, who covers the Ukrainian League, says it will be money well spent if a deal can be struck.

Bradley has watched Konoplyanka&#8217;s rise through the ranks at Dnipro and his increasingly impressive performances for the Ukrainian national side.

Liverpool have turned to the pacy winger after missing out on Mohamed Salah last week. But Bradley believes they would be signing a more proven player in Konoplyanka.

&#8220;He is a classic, old-style winger,&#8221; said Bradley.

&#8220;He works really hard and looks to get the ball at his feet.

&#8220;He gave Kyle Walker a torrid time when he played for Ukraine against England and he has done the same in the Europa League and the Ukrainian League.

&#8220;Salah has burst onto the scene in the last 18 months or so but this boy has been doing it for the Ukrainian national team for four years.

&#8220;He is more the finished article.

&#8220;He is the best Ukrainian player of his generation and the best Ukrainian player since Shevchenko.

&#8220;I&#8217;ve rated him for a long, long time. It was probably back in 2009 that he first made his mark for Dnipro.&#8221;

Bradley says Shakhtar Donetsk, Dynamo Kiev and Zenit St Petersburg have previously watched Konoplyanka.

Paris St Germain are also said to have scouted him extensively.

&#8220;He has the ambition to go and test himself in one of the big leagues,&#8221; Bradley added. &#8220;He has been at Dnipro since he was a young lad and grown up on the banks of the Dnieper. But he is ready to take that next big step now.

&#8220;But clubs have been put off by his price tag. Dnipro are owned by the third richest man in Ukraine and even with the turmoil of the Ukrainian League, they are not in a position where they need to sell.

&#8220;I&#8217;ve covered many of their Europa League games and there has always been scouts from top European clubs there watching him.

&#8220;But he will look at Liverpool and think &#8216;I could go straight into that team&#8217;.

&#8220; Liverpool have also been linked with Andriy Yarmolenko but, for me, Konoplyanka is more suited to their style of football.

&#8220;His work ethic is really good whereas Yarmolenko is a more laid-back character and so will frustrate you. Konoplyanka is a better option.&#8221;
