Liverpool Target Eduardo

LIVERPOOL are ready to poach Eduardo from rivals Arsenal in a £10million deal.

The 26-year-old Croatian forward is unhappy that he has still to be offered improved terms at the Emirates.

His contract has just over 18 months to run and that has alerted Rafa Benitez, who desperately needs to strengthen his attacking options.

The recurring absence of first-choice Fernando Torres has convinced Benitez that he needs more firepower and he hopes to convince the Liverpool board to finance the deal with the club in a fraught battle for fourth place.

Liverpool cannot contemplate missing out on next season's Champions League and Benitez hopes that will release the purse strings.

Eduardo has started just three Premier League games this season despite fully recovering from the horror injury he picked up against Birmingham at the start of 2008.

The Brazilian-born forward was out for a year following the challenge from City's Martin Taylor that broke his ankle and his fibula.

But he has been back since February and wants a more prominent role at Arsenal that Arsene Wenger cannot currently give him.

Eduardo will seek talks with Wenger to see if he features in his long-term plans and if the Arsenal boss is not convincing, Liverpool are ready to pounce.

Would be a great addition to the squad imo.

What a load of absolute shite.

innit.
 
Every forward who scored a couple of goals this year will be linked to us....
 
I highly doubt Arsenal will be able to keep all their attacking options happy for a long period. So far it hasn't been an issue because of injuries but it could at some point in the future.

I don't buy into this article though. It reeks of 2+2= 52563225636
 
Players let go by Wenger don't do very well, do they?

The only exceptions i can think of is Diarra and Henry. But Henry too was sold at the perfect time if you asked me.

Anelka won the Champions League post-Arsenal, which he would never have achieved at Arsenal.
 
That did slip my mind. I'm sure there are a few more too.

But in general, inspite of not winning much, he has managed to hang on to his best players. He is better than most managers at this buying and selling players business. So i would be wary of taking his rejects......but that is not to say Eduardo is a bad player.

i'd rather buy vela. wenger won't sell his better players to us, maybe his caste offs.

How the fuck is vela a cast off? Behave. Eduardo is much more the viable target. Although the story is obviously shite

vela isn't a caste off hence why he won't sell him to us.

if eduardo is sold to us he is a caste off - i wouldn't believe he's recovered properly after his injury also
 
It probably is bollocks, but I don't think people should dismiss the idea so lightly.
We are in a pretty desperate position, and come January it could be much worse. We don't have to like him, he knows the premiership, has quality, and just needs to keep fit when 'nando isn't, and he is affordable.

Patrick Vieira. Won three scudettos with Inter.

And Henry. Won the treble last season with Barca.
 
RVP injured would surley mean Eduardo staying for now anyway.

Can't see it happening anyway.

Well add 'but' to the sentence x
 
In addition to the questions for us about Eduardo's own fitness, are the Arse really going to sell the guy, to one of their closest rivals, when Van Persie's just picked up an injury and will only have been back for a few weeks (if at all) by the time the January window opens?

I've seen more convincing stories on "Doctor Who".

Agree about Vela. Never happen but he is a talent.
 
Maybe we shoud go for that Bendtner-lad instead then?

I've heard he's boss.

Everyone thinks so.

Does having someone snap your leg in half make you injury prone?
[/quote]

I think that was aimed at me. A gooner i know reckons hes struggled with thigh and ankle injuries this season. I may be wrong.

And Bentley earned a £17M move to Spurs.

Upson's done pretty well for himself too.
