I read Nicolas Lodeiro is linked to Liverpool again

Younes Belhanda won Ligue 1 Young Player of the Year
That should add a few quid to his transfer fee to Liverpool

I dont think it's that straight forward and unfortunately it seems he is not happy.
The guy himself might be looking for this loan, so I would say it's abroad.

Could Coates be the secret player that hadn't the right mental attitude/strength Comolli was on about ?

I think that player was Andy, his form since the comments look like being a big f*ck you to Commoli.

Its OK, Henderson won Liverpool young player of the year so is probably valued at around 45m at this stage.

Belhanda + 15m and we'll let Hendo go the other way.

Honestly I think folk shouldn't frustrate themselves with thinking we are going to be signing Belhanda .

Remember being linked in recent times to ;
Aguero
Mata
Lukaku
Hazard
etc

Well Belhanda will unfortunately be added to the above list.

Time will tell people. Nobody thought Liverpool would get Luis Suarez either

Waaaaaaa!

Ya big meany :mad:

That's what 35m buys you! And before anyone says we couldn't afford his wages, we could afford Stewart Downing.

It's not just the 200k per week for aguero but the potential of having to pay similar wages to gerrard, Suarez and other players who may come along.
Liverpool just couldn't afford to pay the transfer fee for Aguero and his wages

I mean, I am a Liverpool fan and I can't stand his interviews, how do you think the yanks will take to it. He's no John McEnroe in terms of entertainment, he just comes off as a bitter old crank with his sleeves rolled up waiting for a fight.

If he goes in to the meeting with the FSG lads with the same attitude he has with the press he`s not gonna last long,is he?

Because he's going to talk to his boss the same way he talks to Andy Burton?

Also I don't think Henry & Co will be asking stupid inane questions like Geoff Shreeves.

Did you hear him yesterday with Mancini?

So Roberto how does it feel?

Did you think it was possible with 90 mins gone?

Really unimaginative stuff.

Anyhow, I thought there was supposed to be a press conference today?

He doesn't suffer fools gladly. It isn't that he is a dislikeable or stupid man. I'd imagine he respects John Henry and is polite and attentive in his dealings with him.

Basically the media and fans of other clubs can go **** themselves. That's where I am on Kenny's media handling and that's where I'll stay. Modern football journalism really is ****ing irrelevant as far as I'm concerned. I don't read any sports section any more and the only punditry team I spend much time watching are the RTE boys for the craic. Zonalmarking.net, football forums and watching the ****ing games with my own two eyes is enough for me. The clubs release official announcements for everything eventually.

I'd be happiest if the club stopped doing all interviews / engagements with media and just communicated to the world through our own website and TV channel.

This might interest some of you, surprised it has not been posted already.

Haha that's some 4th Reich stuff right there.

Hazard has said he will play in Manchester next season, can only presume its for City. We should definitely send a probe out to flush out the availability of Johnson.

I don't seem to rate Adam Johnson as highly as most people

Has that Texiera lad played for the reserves yet? I haven't been following them much since Christmas unfortunately apart from the NextGen.

You can't expect to take 10s of millions of sky each year and then not provide them with interviews.
The paid 1.7 billion for 3 years I'd be expecting blood from managers

Sir Gallagher · 14-05-2012 09:15PM

It's all well and good saying fck the media and other fans and all but that doesn't really wash with me. This was supposed to be the season where we brought back a bit of self-respect back to the club on and off the pitch after the H&G era but unfortunately it was just more of the same.

me neither, he's a good impact player but how much better than Downing is he? and would anyone have rated him higher than Downing when we bought Downing

Without a doubt. Considering I never rated Downing anyhow, that's not saying much, but Adam Johnson can actually beat a man with a trick and put in a cross.

more overated English players
no thanks

Finical · 14-05-2012 09:24PM

I would have much preferred Adam Johnson at the time we bought Downing, but this season of the little glimpses and cameo's he has had. I don't think he'd improve us one bit. He seems weak mentally hence not getting much game time with City as well. Doesn't track back much, but admittedly has talent.

All the eyes would be on him to for us deliver and I couldn't see him handling that pressure at all. It's not likely we'll sign him any ways though is it?

We haven't signed a proper winger in God knows how long? Kewell had potential, but failed so much.

All that being said I'd take risk if we could get him for about 10 mill, but no chance that's happening.

one all draw in the match in Limerick.
