Heard that Kjaer is on Laudrup's hitlist, quality centre back who Wolfsburg want to offload, under-rated imo - however Roma, who had him on loan last season, are taking another good look at him, and so are the evil lot up on Merseyside, could be available for £6-8mill. What do you think lads, we need another decent CB and he seems he can fit the bill. We've got money, just a winger, CB and striker to come in imo
He's honestly not that good. Average player, did well in Italy (his first spell in Italy that is). Major disappointment at Wolfsburg and had a huge fall out with Magrath - and still won't reconcile (so probably trouble). Roma didn't take the option to sign him permanently. Has a lot of errors in his game, not the strongest or the quickest to make up for it. Would struggle in this league, I imagine.
You never know, he could turn out all right. He suited the tempo of Serie A, it brought out his good qualities - playing the ball out and so on. We've been linked with him every summer for about 4 years because of Agger - who carries him a little internationally.
NI..... Roma are looking at him again for another season's loan or an actual deal, he'll never play under Magrath again so he's gotta go somewhere... still a top quality player. If I was Laudrup I'd snap Magrath's hand off for a deal for him. Rodgers is a known fan of him.
Oh, really? My understanding was that Burdisso and Heinze were the centre-back pairing, Heinze recently said he was happy to play there. But I couldn't say for sure, maybe you're right. They certainly turned down the chance to activate the buy-out clause of the loan deal.
Wolfsburg want to offload - therefore, not good enough for us. £6-8m?! for that money I'd want Caulker back.
Kjaer may be worth a punt on a season's long loan. I wouldn't buy him outright. Perhaps Huw could secure an option to buy at an agreed value?
