General consensus from rumour mill is that utd or spurs likely
Firstly i dont believe it but one of the scenarios being touted is erikson to utd and ford to spurs

Who would you rather have out the two ?

Its a weird one for me, both players would make us better imho, but not sure who i would rather have
Dont like saying this as i really rate erikson and son at spurs but think i would rather see ford come back to us.

I am certain we will get neither, but i cant make my mind on the erikson ford thing ?

I'd take Eriksson in a heart beat, he may not have that wonder goal in him like coutinho but hes a better all round player. I'd be more than happy to see him for us.

Can't have it both ways - either we "invented" his rep, or they saw something themselves. I doubt they'd have just taken the word of a few Liverpool fans.

Neymar had already buggered off by then anyway. Coutinho was meant to be his replacement.
Not trying to have it both ways mate, you invented his rep but Barca wanted him to keep Neymar happy.
Neymar had a hissy fit and left before Barca got him but now they are trying to get Neymar back and keeping Couts on the books until it happens whilst getting something back via a loan.

Ah thats how you spell his name lol
I totally agree but just think Ford fits us, tbf would be happy with either
Like i say i really rate eriksson :) though.
 
I think the whole lot is made up bullshit to sell papers and get clicks if I'm honest.

If I had to take one of them it would be Eriksen, purely because Coutinho works better off the left and we already have a lot of players for that side of attack.
I wouldn't be impressed if we spent money on either though.

Both are better players than any of your current midfielders?

Because that’s how football works at the biggest club in the world? You buy a player to keep a player you don’t have happy who you might try and re-sign a few years later.

Rather than you know, just give said player a few more 000’s a week which I’m sure would make them happier.

Eriksen apparently, I had to giggle it. I rely heavily on auto correct to make any sense.

Ford needs the right team for him, he found it with us but I'm not sure it would be the same if he came back. I've no idea who wed drop to fit him in.

Fair enough
Only two days to go so guess we find out soon enough :)
Anyone else you would like your boys to bring in ?
I quite like the look of the unfortunately named Immobile at Lazio, i think thats his name

Dont shout at me but i would drop one of the midfield 3 (wiji or fab, prob wiji) drop ford dead centre just behind our front three
Let him roam
Let hendo and fab fall back and give cover for trent and robbo to surge forward

Immobile had two great seasons but I have heard little of him in the last 18 months.

I wouldn't be happy changing the entire shape of the team just to fit in a player who didnt want to be here 12 months ago.

Fab is unstoppable at the minute, I think hes our best midfielder, we need a 3 man midfield that will constantly work, especially as we have two full backs who are so attacking.

I get what you are saying but i think changing the shape is a good move as it keeps teams guessing.
Agree on fab thats why wiji takes the drop in my world :)
That said not sure about fabs legs :bandit:<rofl>
 
Reports in South America claim Real Madrid and Liverpool have agreed terms for the transfer of Fabinho.

The shock claims insist Fabinho will move to Los Blancos before the close of the transfer window, which remains open for Real until the end of August despite the English market ending tomorrow.

The move will reportedly be made official once Liverpool have signed a replacement for Fabinho, who only joined from Monaco last summer.

Fabinho actually spent a year on loan at Real Madrid, when Jose Mourinho was manager in 2012/13.
