Yep, found him to be useful.

Was queuing for beer this morning at the home coming parade and as I was wearing my jersey a few Germans were quizzing me about the Reus rumours and telling me that they wished Suarez was German. Crazy basterds.

Are we supposed to be signing Reus btw?

Seems we're being linked with Ballotelli now.

Yeah that's ridiculous, at 15 million, we should be all over that like white on rice.

If people are concerned about Remy and his attitude we shouldn't be anywhere near Balotelli.

Now just to convince the FA/FIFA/UEFA that we must play 13 players in each match.
FIFA shouldn't be a problem, they seem to bend over backwards when it comes to accomodating Suarez

Good luck with that, they don't respond well to outside of the box type requests. Their preference is mockery it would seem.

For their 50% share of the player. So 25m in total, or so it reads.

Yoda Translate:

The Sport Lisboa e Benfica - Futebol, SAD, in compliance with Article 248 of the Code of Values
Securities announces that it has reached agreement with Liverpool FC for the transfer of the rights outright
sports and 50% of the economic rights they held athlete Lazar Markovic's for the amount of €
12,500,000 (twelve million five hundred thousand euros)

Ah got excited. Must brush up on my Portuguese :pac:

Even though "that" transfer window went horribly, we still got Henderson out of it. While £16M looked a lot, he is definitely proving his worth now!!

slingerz

I'd love Liverpool to sign Balotelli purely for the craic involved with him anyway

Fitz*

I'm genuinely excited by Markovic.

Reminds me of when we singed Coutinho. This young attacking midfielder that I knew was highly rated but only seen live like twice. Thinking that we could never sign a player like him, but then we go around and do sign them.

Yay!!

That's the thing, he's 90% sideshow 10% performance, Suarez was the opposite. Leave Mario in the Serie A semi-retirement home, and just wrap up the Reus deal.

Chip Whitley

I was against signing Balotelli, but for 14m that's a risk worth taking imo. He's worth that for comedy value alone :pac:

tbf Suarez was 50/50 when it came to sideshow v performance. And thats not a slight on his performances just that the sideshow that went with him was extravagant as well.

IMO Balotelli wont happen and its more likely to be Bony with Lacazette being an outside chance

For sure, while the City result last season was amazing losing Hendo for those games was a huge blow.. never thought id say that about him. Who knows how the run in would have panned out had he being available.



Id hope that lallana workrate coupled with Henderson renlentless running will ensure our midfield wont be bypassed and overrun like it did too many times last season only for SAS brilliance to bail us out.

I still hope BR has a quality DM in mind but it doesn’t seem likely which is worrying. Lucas cant be depended on and Can has to be given a chance to develop into BR way of playing.


If Vidal is indeed available i cant believe we are not in for him, What a midfield we would have then.

Apparantly transfer confirmed by Benfica twitter and will be on LFC website at 5.

EDIT: Scratch that, seems to be all BS like a lot of stuff on Twitter.
