hahaha!!!
I must have missed that news, it's a coup for the Scots if he has.
Honestly, yes, absolutely.Joking aside Kris, do you honestly think he'd consider coming to Anfield?
In the job I had for most of my working life, SEN was an abbreviation for "special educational needs". Just saying. 😉
What about the other winger that's been without much game time at Juve, Krasic. Right winger I think looked really good before going to Juve. Not heard a lot of him since.
Milos Krasic is ready to turn his back on Italian football after failing to make an impression at Juventus.
The winger, signed from CSKA Moscow for €15m in the summer of 2010, is heading out of Turin after not featuring in the plans of boss Antonio Conte.
“I don’t think there is a chance that he will stay in Italy,” representative Dejan Joksimovic told TMW on Thursday.
“His time in Italy has come to an end. Now he is ready to go to another country.”
The 27-year-old was expected to play a key part in Antonio Conte’s side this term, but the Old Lady won the championship with Krasic contributing just one goal in seven games.
“He wants to leave Juve,” the agent added. “He’s not played enough and that is why his spell in Turin will end.
“At the moment there isn’t a specific side set to sign him, but, believe me, there are a lot of clubs interested in him.
“He’s ready to play in any championship with any great project – he’d be happy with that.”
Krasic has been linked with clubs in England, Germany and Russia.

Please?
Elia didn't play much at Juventus this season and wants out.
He looked good in the world cup for Holland. Winger I think he played when I saw him.
He was excellent at the start of the season when he played CM with Bryson who is more attack-minded. The problem is that Clough (Derby manager) doesn't seem to know his best CM line-up and messed things up which led to their mid-season slump in form.
Hendrick reminds be a bit of Didi Hamann they way he patrols the midfield and gives simple passes, keeping the play moving and snuffing out nascent opposition attacks. The problem is that they have another young CM James Bailey who plays a similar role.
When Bailey cam back from injury Clough tried to play him, Hendrick and Bryson which didn't work. Also, Hendrick & Bailey doesn't work too well either as the team lacks Bryson's creativity.
Clough has to accept it's Bailey OR Hendrick NOT both.
I think Hendrick will make it to the Premier League one day soon but because he's a DM'er I'd need to watch him a few more times as it's quite a bit harder to spot the potentially great DM'ers than it is to spot the potential AM'ers.
Also on A Derby related point..............It's ridiculous that they continue to waste Jamie Ward's talents by playing him wide left. He's a cracking talent but needs to play up front, ideally with a tall target man.
I like Oncy far better when he's blinkered optimistic-like, so fine with me mate 🙂It's a shoe-in every year normally for me Kris but if Oncy continues in his current rich vein of form you're gonna have serious competition man.
I am always expecting to win.Perhaps you could argue Kris is being.....optimistic to expect to win
Over the years we've picked up many superb players from the lower leagues (Keegan, Clemence, Neal, Toshack, Rob Jones, Joey Jones, Hansen, Lawrenson etc). Just because we haven't done it for at least 15 years and other top teams seem to have stopped too doesn't mean the pool of talent isn't there.
The problem is that the top teams don't tend to sniff around the bottom 2 divisions; they wait until these players are snapped up by Championship teams, then prove themselves at that level, and then they make their move....by which time their value has soared and it becomes a risky investment.
Matt Phillips, who played last night for Blackpool, is a good example. He looked awesome as an 18 year old at Wycombe and Blackpool signed him for £300,000. If Blackpool don't get promoted and we were to try and sign him he'd cost us at least £6m which would be a risk. For a £300,000 investment we could have loaned him out for a season or two and if it didn't work out we'd get most of our money back anyway.
For the record, IMO Phillips will be a Premier League star in the next season or two (with or without Blackpool) and we are crying out for a player like him.
There is plently more talent down there and it's criminally just going to waste.
Kenny if yer reading this give me a shout..........I'll work for expense only!
With a name like that hes too good for usNick Powell is on SKY1 now in the Crewe v Southend game. Watch out also for Bilel Mohsni who is a CB but playing RM in this game.........he's way too good for this level.
Gonna need similar productivity from our new signings:
Stewart Downing, £19million, finishes the season with 35 appearances but 0 goals and 0 assists.
Going down the same ol' road again I see...
Raiding relegated teams. We need world class talents. From the above mentioned I'd happily take Hoilett because he's free.
We got Chunky from a relegated team....Yes because we've already signed a load of players from relegated teams for next season haven't we? Oh? What? What do you mean the transfer window hasn't even opened yet?
