Kjaer has expressed his desire to team up with Agger at Liverpool.

Don't know whether it has been said elsewhere but he's recently stated his desire to go to Liverpool and play alongside Agger - if the offers right.

"It seems logical", he added.

Today when Rafa was faced with the question whether there's any truth in the Kjaer (and Turan) rumours he refused to comment directly, saying something along the line of; to early to talk about new players.

This is on.

[/quote]Course they do. But they'd cost 30m combined and that's our whole budget (once we've sold mascherano) and Rafa has that earmarked for a new right back and Ruben de la red.

If either has an ounce of fucking sense they won't sign for us.

Cheers Peatcheo, much appreciated

*happy face despite the current state of affairs*

Kjaer would 'only' cost us £9M due to his buy-out clause Oncy and the latest reports of Gala beeing interested in Babel in a swap deal would probably decrease Arda's prize with around £8M at least. Latest offer was rumoured to be Babel + £4M wasn't it?

If true that's only around £13M upfront. We'd then still be able to buy a few more players especially if we are going to flog out some of the deadwood.

Well they clearly don't since they've both been saying recently they want to join us.

Luckily for us there are still good players out there that love Liverpool and want to join us despite our current run.

Torres, Babel, Johnson, Agger, Skrtel, etc etc.

But don't let facts get in the way of a good old rant.

He might get to play half a season with Agger at Liverpool if he's lucky. No, wait, I meant if Agger's lucky.

As much as I think Agger's an excellent player, he's only played more than 30 games for us ONCE in 5 seasons. He might break that mark this season, but as it stands, he's only done that in 2006/2007, the year we won the FA Cup.

Skrtel hasn't been much better either, 20 in his first season (joining midway), 30 in the 2nd and 26 this season.

Kjaer would be one hell of a player if he turned out to be anything like the player this man below was:

Sami Hyypia vs Rooney and Tevez

I wouldn't say Agger is particularly quick. The fact that you can count on one hand the amount of players who are quick (Agger and Skrtel are debatable and certainly not lightening) is pretty depressing. Especially considering it's a key attribute to have and our rivals have it in abundance.
 
I think all bets are off regarding summer transfer targets until we know who'll be our manager next season. Benitez, I hope and believe, will be signing players for Juve or Real.
 
I think he'll still be here. And I don't think we'll have much of a budget either. Perhaps selling to fund purchases again.
 
If we finish sixth or seventh, you don't think the owners will make a change to try and get us back in the CL? I'd be amazed if they don't - it'd be tantamount to giving up on their investment.

I think that would be the right move, yeah, and the one I'm hoping for. I don't think they'll sack him, though, because of his contract and I don't think he'll walk away either. He strikes me as too proud, and certainly too stubborn.
 
According to Goal he was the best young player in the Serie A this Season.

According to me we should buy him now.



*Luckily for us Palermo ended just short of 4th hence they are not going to play in the Champions League either.

would be good to have a ready made partnership with players already familier with each other (at international level)

course they will, we're good for it 😉

I don't think it's that cut and dried, on either side. Rafa might yet get the sack if the owners are forced to conclude that they'll lose more by keeping him on than they'd save by terminating his contract. He himself might walk if he keeps getting stonewalled over transfer funds and if there's another good job waiting for him. Not saying he WILL go, just that it's still all up in the air IMO.
 
We are his preferred destination but we are skant. No chance of that happening! We live in hope.

£10M and he's off to Wolfsburg.
