Is this the same player who failed a medical at Milan because of his teeth? or am I imaging this?
 
The Reds turned their attention to the 23-year-old left-back after missing out to Manchester City in the race to sign Gael Clichy.


Remi Garde, the coach of cash-strapped Lyon, recently revealed the board were willing to listen to offers for Cissokho, who joined the French club from Porto in a £13million deal in 2009.
The announcement alerted Roma to his availability and persuaded Liverpool to act by making a bid, reports Le Parisien.
Lyon officials are apparently happy with the sum offered and the France international is likely to become a Reds player early next week.
Liverpool were also considering Jose Enrique as a solution to their left-back problem, but Cissokho's arrival will bring an end to their interest in the Newcastle United star.

modo, he's excellent, so who cares why they want rid.
 
I believe someone posted some articles here stating he's fallen out with people at the club and that's the reason they're looking to sell.

Dunno.

They are making a loss on him, which is unusual for Lyon I suppose (when selling to a bigger club).
 
this is a perfect example of soccernomics. buy an excellent player who is having problems/lost his way and fix those problems.
 
Its got legs this now, numerous sites and newspaper websites are reporting that he will sing on Monday, I doubt it but lets get enjoy silly season.

Haha he has a beautiful voice thats reflected in the price!
 
if anyone who doesn't know about this player, then think a left sided johnson. powerful going forwards with pace and strength not as good going the other way. has not been too great last season but there could be any number of reasons for that and for 8m it's worth taking the chance but when he is on point he is freaking amazing. definately a gamble based on last season.
 
cissokho on the left
johnson on the right

attacking fullbacks.
obviously kenny has decided to go with my ideas, squeaky wheel gets the grease 😉

He's better defensively than Glenjo IMO. Though Glen's better technically.

And most importantly he's black right Spidey?

well, that goes without saying 😉
 
Puel and the club are heading for court in order to settle up for the 12 months that were yet to run on his four-year deal when he left Lyon last month, with the erstwhile boss claiming €5 million in wages and potential bonuses. Yet even the worst-case scenario in front of the judges could hardly make the summation of Lyon's fortunes under Puel more chastening.

Over the last two seasons of the former Lille manager's tenure, Lyon spent a mind-boggling €110 million on players, making a total of €155 million since his 2008 arrival. With no trophies won and a style of football which infuriated the Gerland supporters, the only factor stopping Puel being fired more quickly was the further exorbitant expense that would be occurred. Unsurprisingly, the club's trading losses of €35 million for the financial year ending in June 2010 were the biggest in Ligue 1.

The summer 2009 signing of Michel Bastos was the clearest indicator of how much power within the club had shifted. Lille demanded €18 million for Bastos. Club legend Bernard Lacombe, previously omnipotent adviser to Aulas, baulked at the price but Puel insisted, and Aulas went ahead and paid the money to clinch the deal.

Nobody is suggesting that Garde's task will be a simple one, which he acknowledges in saying "there's no miracle recipe". Even the ever-bullish Aulas recently admitted that Lyon "have no right to talk about the title" after the failures of the last three years, and it is clear sales are necessary to balance the books following the mammon of recent years, with Jeremy Toulalan already having joined Malaga for €11 million and Michel Bastos looking likely to head to Juventus.

No offence......we could be buying 100% pure bollocks, and you'd be on here telling us how great it is that we are buying pure bollocks as opposed to adulterated ones...


This is a good signing if it happens though....
