City apparently put in a bid for around £25-30m for sterling a few days ago.

And a fee agreed for Kovacic.

Just read that from ed002 mate, surprised tbh that we've moved quickly to get him.

They still say that Kov;s agent is surprised at Liverpool...in a negative way. Perhaps they're talking about the lowballing...

 

[Jack_Napier]

Yeah we apparently offered around €10m for the first bid.

 

[saint.nick]

Yeah we apparently offered around ?10m for the first bid.

Lol. f**king typical.

Don't know why they can't see it, but all that shit does is leave a sour taste in other clubs' mouths and create contempt for LFC. Where has their lowballing ever got them? 20m for Markovic? 25m for Lallana? 15m for Allen? It's embarrassing.

 

[Jack_Napier]

Agree nick, reading ed001's comment on the Kovacic deal is somewhat worrying, while not divulging exactly what the issue is it seems we are run by arrogant clowns who think we should get what we want for whatever we think the right price is. Saw a few comments you made and the answers the ed gave had me shaking my head.

 

[Jack_Napier]

Aspas gone to Celta Vigo. Sevilla took up the option to make his loan deal permanent and immediately sold him onto Celta Vigo.

 

[saint.nick]

Haha, 'permanent'...

 

[Jack_Napier]

They no doubt made a little profit off the move unlike us who would've taken a loss. At least that's one useless forward off the books. Now for a couple of Italian forwards to go as well. Not holding my breath on Mario going tho, we seem to be asking way to much.

 

[saint.nick]

Have a feeling Mario won't go at all. Borini hangs around like an annoying fly in your car that won't fly out the exit you open for it. I'm confused about this Kovacic business though. He said last night that at the moment has a contract till 2019 and is currently 100% committed to Inter...

 

[Jack_Napier]

Yeah we either take a big loss on Mario or he'll be here come start of the new season.

With Kovacic we've apparently agreed a fee and bonuses and stuff and its expected to go through so who knows mate. Would love to see him come in and Allen go but it looks like Lucas will be going now. Doesn't look to be anyone who is an out and out DM in the squad. For a side that can't defend for shit and has no defensive coaches it's slightly worrying

 

[saint.nick]

Ed1 seems to be a really big fan of Kovacic, but of course there is a catch- 'we don't need him'. Lol. At the end of the day though, I guess strengthening one of your positions isn't a bad thing.

Rodgers' ignorance of a dedicated DM perplexes me too.

They reckon he wasn't sacked because the guy they wanted to replace him with didn't commit. They're not yet willing to say who it was. I wonder who they're talking about...

 

[Jack_Napier]

Probably some like Klinnsmann mate knowing our owners. Rubbish manager but has a big name in the states.

Ed is somewhat right tho, we have stacks of midfielders so he may not be needed but he looks quality so can't complain too much. Hopefully we get rid of Allen like I said in my previous post. A legit CDM is needed with our shoddy defence.

 

[saint.nick]

Yeah, the fact our attacking midfield is strengthening, along with his quality, is the only positive to it. He's trying to turn us into a lesser version of Arsenal.

 

[Jack_Napier]

Probably try a 0-10-0 formation at some point knowing BR

 

[Haffa]

Good way to stop getting overrun in midfield by Palace.

 

[Jack_Napier]

Yeah but haff none of the 10 would have any clue how to track the oppositions midfield so we'd still get over run by palace and villa.

 

[Haffa]

With Bog in goals you'll be fine.

Lucky for him Studge is out for a while I'm sure he'd be flinching after what he and lamps did to him at Bolton.

 

[Jack_Napier]

Ge we're so spoilt for choice at Anfield, couple of championship level keepers in Bogdan and Migs. Happy days indeed.

 

[Jack_Napier]

Kovacic deal might not happen now apparently. Apparently our handling of the deal has given his agent and reps the shits and inter are trying to get Arsenal to bid or get a swap plus cash deal with Monaco for Kondogbia done instead.

Our owners must employ absolute dead shits to get deals done, apparently we have f**k all respect in the world of football when it comes to these dealings and it's all down to our attitude and way we act.
