Liverpool consider shock swoop for Celtic winger

[SummerOnions]

Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish is considering a shock move for Celtic winger Paddy McCourt.

The Northern Ireland international hit the headlines last week with a stunning goal in his country’s 4-0 win over the Faroe Islands.

Liverpool had been monitoring the 27-year-old and their interest has been flushed out by the attention McCourt is now receiving from other clubs. He joined the Bhoys in 2008 but has struggled to hold down a starting spot in the SPL.

He has outrageous talent but his lack of consistency has held him back throughout his career.

Dalglish is aware of the damage he can do and is keen on adding his flair to the Reds squad.

McCourt would be an unlikely starter but is capable of coming off the bench and making an explosive impact.

27 year old who has played most of his professional career in the Irish League, and isnt even a first team player at Celtic? no thanks. Another Youtube wonder

He can't even get in the Celtic team.

Fucking hell no.

If he had the potential to play as shown on the youtube and still couldn't break into the Celtic first team, then there surely must be a youtube clip about somewhere which highlights the goof-ups he has made?

Is this the "Derry Pele"?

 

[Rosco]

He's more like the second coming of George Best, except he's shit.

 

[localny]

He can't even get into Celtic team? The man clearly has talent. So what's the catch with the Derry Pele? Curious..

The guy didn't even have the ambition to play for the Republic, when he could easily have switched allegiance...

*sigh*

 

[Skullflower]

he looks amazing but i'd be concerned that someone might try to tackle him in the premier league.

 

[dogboy]

I watched Paddy a fair few times with Derry City, he has great talent but has a rep for being a bit well, lazy.

 

[localny]

EMuff said.

If he's a couple of mill, I'd have him. A great option off the bench.
At the same time I'd like Raheem or Sterling to be given a go as an option off the bench.
Suso too.
