Ouch!

Woah, rough!

The Mirror report, Liverpool have made a formal approach for Eden Hazard!!

Would be a amazing signing, very interested in this rumour.

Hazard looks the goods, I'd like him at Arsenal. Although probably not a key area to strengthen tbf.

Does anyone follow 'the fields of anfield road' on Facebook? They seem to have info that Young and Scott Parker have been confirmed. They alsoa gree on the Hazard bid. Not sure but it's worth a look

Had a quick look at that page, they also have Juan Mata confirmed as a signing too. That would be a very good signing, he is kind of David Silva 2.0

All done and dusted aye. What a season...

Not upset about missing Europa, good chance to focus on the league. Pick up 3 or 4 good signings to help push on and make a good run for top 4 next season. I get the feeling this transfer window is going to get quite nutty, more so than normal as we're actually after some decent players and have some cash to splash.

Alright lads....chopping block....who goes? Tyler2011-05-24 15:23:08

Funnily enough , I'd keep the Greek as a squad player. Yes , he's limited and has the turning circle of an aircraft carrier.But  . I've seen games this season where he was one of the few who put in a shift.Good attitude. If someone better comes along then fine , get rid but I think he's a good squad player who can do a job.

My guess is aqua will be sold for a cut price deal to another club in italy not Juve since they have been trying to get his price down ever since they got him on loan.

Cole will go back to a club in london........fulham?

ngog like jazz said not good enough and taking up space in the squad possibly blocking other younger talent coming thru.

The greek can do a good job but he can be found out sometimes if there are a couple injuries and he has to play in big games. Really wish agger could stay fit as I love the way he always tries to play football from the back!

I'm unsure on Cole...I wonder if he could still be a good player for us. HE started off badly with injury and suspension but I still rate him. Supposedly he earns big bucks too so would have to take a pay cut if he went to another club...or we would have to pay him out

Agree, I like Soto as a back up. Maybe Kelly could step into fourth choice centre back, but Kyrgiakos has a great attitude, an experienced head, and can be an absolute beast. So don't see the point in getting rid unless we have a replacement. We probably need another ball-playing centre back though, given Agger can't stay fit at all.

Out:
Jova
Cole (or take a drastic cut in wages and stay as squad player)
Aqua (Unless he wants to stay)
Ngog
Degen
The Greek
Agger (Due to injury. If we get a good offer take it)
Konch
Poulsen

In:
Adam
Enrique or Cahill (depends on price)
Freidel! Could only be as backup + coach role
Marko Marin (interesting prospect, similar to Aqua or more a wide man?)
Insua to return?
Benzema
Young? Sounds like a glory hunter to me. Off to the mancs?

Kenny's comments are a clue, "If we bring anyone in they have to be better that what we've got". "They have to want to come to LFC."

Oh yeah, Insua.. Can't see him staying either, which is a real shame.

Yep, 3 yr deal so can't touch his contract without his permission. Either he agrees to a cut or spot ya later...

Target - Sergio Canales?

Nice write up of Downing on RAWK given his latest interest at LFC. Think i'd prefer him to Young, Young's never really done it for me...

Stewart Downing

Rafa offered the Atletico job. Would be good for him I think.

He could sell us Aguero for cheep!

Surely pacheco coming back in makes ngog uneeded? Besides you would think he did enough at the start of the season to get him into a lower prem team making us a few mill

Yep Downing over Young....What did happen to pacheco? somethings up there

The RAWK article shows me that a lot of scousers are still full of crap.These guys have either have very short memories or were not born in the 79's & 80's.
Saying that Utd supporters have no class-- thats a joke, I've NEVER met a scouse that had any class, and I know plenty.

Didn't he end up on the bench there too?

Anyone see the video of masch dedicating the win to us  and weaselface Neville's face afterwards, hahahaha  fking priceless.

Sure did! Class cut back to see Nevilles faces! Nice to hear mash saying that. Still a bit dark about what happened there

Good article on Aqua. Hope it works out for him (and us) whatever the final decision is.

Interesting reports coming out this morning that Young has now chosen to sign for LFC? Another twist...

Also been piecing a few things together around how Comolli is working. Hearing a number of times that he's starting to pee a number of clubs off with his 'low-ball' bids. Exactly the same tactic we saw in Jan with Adam where he was offering around that 4m mark.

Jen Chang (SI) was saying yesterday Comolli has a poor reputation in Europe for negotiating and that he's annoyed Rennes and St Etienne with low bids for Marveaux and Matuidi. I would have thought we'd have at least one of these wrapped up by now, particularly Adam. I just hope this tactic of trying to get players on the cheap doesn't backfire as we don't have Europe to help alleviate any transfer tension. Just a thought I had last night, maybe nothing... who knows.

I get the feeling Aqua doesn't want to come back to England. Shame really as I think he would fit in perfectly.

I dont see any problem with 'low balling' bids to be honest... why should they get p*ssed off? Just say NO if it's not enough... wenger is famous for 'low balling' but it pays off financially... occasionally someone will come for cheap because nobody else happens to be bidding for them, but their club needs to cash in before it's too late - arshavin's transfer to arsenal is the prime example... And when barca bid for fabregas last season we just said no, it's not enough, and moved on... no big deal?

I remember getting quite excited when Aqua was signed but now im just not sure hes an improvement. He's around the same level as what we already have in there (thinking spearing, lukas) but hes never going to start ahead of stevie or raul so just makes me think whats the point. Just reckon the calibre of players being targetted needs to lift, just look at the effect suarez has had. Players like Aqua are great if we want to get 4th, 5th or 6th but hes not going to crack us into the top spot where pool really should be; so for me sell him to whoever wants him and spalsh the money on something bigger and better.

A little of cash in the bank and we're signing everyone! Jordan Henderson the latest. Maybe it is just all about squad depth for the next year?

cole off to spurs for 3mil.........pity we paid him 4 mil in wages!

Sadly that might have been a paper seller from the daily fail... :(

Downing and Henderson on the other hand appear to be getting pretty close. Be happy with either or both of those.

Some interesting stats here on potential targets:

Mata signed?

I did have my fingers crossed! We will see. Yeah henderson and downing would be good additions but not exactly top class.
