More than likely it is...SSN saying deal is "not dead yet".
@Zizouology: Konoplyanka passed his Liverpool medical at Dnepropetrovsk. The delay is due to several agents claiming commission. http://t.co/wfJLxB8imR
the stumbling bloc is that the Ukrainians have thrown in EU membership as part of the deal.
They can have Britain's place.
{Loved the 'bloc' pun}
That sounds more plausible. In fact when Spurs was mentioned as a possible suitor, this reeked of an agent or agents stirring.
"I don't know if the Konoplyanka deal will go through but as a Liverpool fan, it seems like it wouldn't be a transfer window if we didn't sign an average winger," says Rob Lavine. "Still, you'd think the glaring lack of cover in midfield over the past few weeks would make it a higher priority, especially considering Alex Song's supposedly available."
genuine question - apart from shevchenko, who was the last ukranian/russian player who went overseas and did well? are they good travellers? i'm thinking of rebrov, that barca/urkarnian guy, arshavin etc...
yes I am generalising ukranians and russians as one, apologies in-advance!
So basically, Ian Ayre and co just enjoyed an all-expenses paid for trip to Ukraine and are probably staying in some posh hotel, and God knows what else they are putting on the club's tabs too. And are returning home with nothing to show for except for a generally good time. Plus he gets to take home lots of money at the end of this month.
I wouldn't mind his job.
There's gotta be hookers
There must be, otherwise we wouldn't have started doing this deal at 9am this morning.
You can imagine Ayre waking up, surrounded by eastern European whores, wiping the coke off his nose & looking at his phone, then jumping out of bed, shouting, 'shit, it's the fucking 31st already' & falling over trying to get his keks on.
He was asking those hookers to say hello to his little friend
Mark Mc backing this tweet - good enough for me.@Support_Believe: Kono is done so I dont know why all the fuss TBH
