Long distance information, give me Memphis

[LeTallecWiz]

[article=http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/liverpool-fc-transfer-gossip-depay-8843809]Liverpool look in pole position to snatch young Dutch star Memphis Depay from under the noses of Manchester United, according to the Sunday People.

The PSV Eindhoven attacker is rated at £20million and has been heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford - but now Brendan Rodgers' side appear ready to bid.

The paper says the club have been keeping a very close relationship with both the 21-year-old and his agent, Alex Kroes, with a delegation from Liverpool visiting PSV every month this season and spent a lot of time this week with Kroes.

Spurs are naturally said to be interested, as well.[/article]

Hope the bold bit is true - sign him up ... He's going to be a star.

Big expectations of him over here. Could well be a future superstar.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Hadnt heard of him before now.

Stupid name, but the comments people are making about him make him sound incredible.

 

[cloggypop]

Current top scorer in the Eredivisie. Right footed but plays on the left and tends to cut in (but a hell of a lot better than Babel at it). Playing with a lot of confidence this season including stuff like hitting the bar from miles inside his own half. Would be great on the left of our front 3.

Did you not see him rip shit up in the world cup?

He's very good

 

[FoxForceFive]

Nah, didn't watch that much of the wc unfortunately.

 

[James]

Absolute gun. £20 million would be an absolute steal. He'll probably go for double that.

 

[Rosco]

Stupid name, but the comments people are making about him make him sound incredible.

I'm guessing he's not white. It's a very 'urban' name

 

[FoxForceFive]

Urban? Like from the streets?

You saying all black people are homeless?

Racist.

He sounds like a blues guitarist from the Delta.

 

[cloggypop]

Needs YouTube videos with a shite soundtrack.

 

[Rosco]

Racist.

Well obviously not all of them. Some of them are multi millionaire Nba and NFL players

 

[dmishra]

He looks exciting. Think he could be very good.

 

[red_maradona]

looks outstanding. a touch of Sanchez and suarez in there somewhere.

ideal profile too for us: 21, world class potential and playing in a lower european league.

He sounds like Overmars but the only time I think I've ever seen him was in the World Cup? Is he anything like him? That'd be nice.

 

[cloggypop]

Well he speaks the same funny language. I don't think he is as fast as Overmars was but he seems to score more. Great shot on him and takes a good direct free kick.

THASS RAYCESS!!

 

[Hansern]

Great talent and yet another young player who can play anywhere in attack.
Sell Borini, Lambert and Balotelli and add Depay to Origi coming in.

 

[Zlate]

He'll go to United, the LVG link will persuade him imo

 

[rurikbird]

I really like him

 

[Dirkus_Circus]

He'll go to United, the LVG link will persuade him imo

Nah, he thinks LVG is a prick with shit hair and a punchable face.

 

[ILD]

Would love him here. He was silly good at times in the WC. United fans seem to think they have him.

 

[Pesam]

He'll go to United, the LVG link will persuade him imo

He'll more than likely go to whichever one of us qualifies for the Champions League.................although with City's current form maybe United and Liverpool might qualify.

 

[jimmy]

Well obviously not all of them. Some of them are multi millionaire Nba and NFL players

And you were calling Suarez a racist...

 

[Oncy]

This guy will go to Madrid or Barca.
No point talking about it.

 

[hmmmmm1]

By the look of those youtube clips, he looks amazing.

He replaces Luis Murial in my most wanted player for us to sign

 

[Buddha]

He does look potentially brilliant.

A bit like Ibe...

 

[peterhague]

I must be the only one who's slightly underwhelmed by the videos. I think Felipe Anderson, a similar player we've also been linked with, looks much more exciting.

 

[keniget]

A bit like Ibe...

I wonder whether Ibe has given the management team a bit of a dilemma with the form he showed prior to getting injured.

Do we put our faith in Ibe?

Markovic is also one that needs games if he is to fulfill his supposed potential.

And then there is Origi also coming in.

Lot of young talent at a crucial point of their development.
