Yet we seem to think he's signing for them.... As usual... Cant see us selling him after tracking him for that long and given he's 20 years old.

Pretty much, the board are dicks for sticking with Rodgers and Rodgers is a dick for selling him.

Same old.
 
can we not be arsed training players anymore? we aren't going to be able to sign any players that are world class so this is the only way to go about it
 
I wonder why none of the giants of football were after him and Benfica were so quick to let him go. He has just not trained on since he was at Partizan. We are world class at wasting money.

There was odd links to him with Chelsea. Chelsea fan in work thinks they funded the 50% third party payment and had planned to take him from Benfica but pulled the plug as not to involve themselves in a murky third party fine.

It think the Partizan chairman was quoted to say that Markovic had initially signed for Chelsea will go on loan to Benfica.

Sorry, I got side tracked there. I think it's harsh to say he hasn't 'trained on' since he left Benfica. He was ripping up the Portuguese league and helped Benifca to a European cup final and he's only 20. He has moved country 3 times in as many years. The talent is there too in my opinion.

Chelsea could have signed him for £12 mil but Mourihno vetoed the deal and he came to us for £20mil instead. As much as I despise the cunt I would trust Mourinho's opinion on a player over our transfer committee's, Rodger's or FSG 8 days a week! Obviously he is only 20 but for a so called "baller" he should by now be able to run with the ball under control.

Fuck me if he's worth £20 mil then what is Ibe worth 40,50,60mil - worlds gone mad.
 
Did Mourinho veto the deal? Did he not rate him or was he stocked in that position? We aren't privy to this info. Did Chelsea step aside due to third party allegations? Did Lazar pick us in a hope he'd progress better here? That also sounds feasible. Mourinho has sold Mata (an excellent player) and Kevin De Bruyne (who I really rate). Chelsea are a club who are in a position to do this. Mourinho passing on Lazar doesn't deflect from his talent.
 
He might have impressed more if he hadn't been played at full back. No wonder we can't defend when Rodgers tries to shoehorn so many attacking players into the team to make up for the shit strikers he's bought (Sturridge aside though with his injuries he's fast becoming a waste of time as well).
 
Lets be clear on something for the sake of my sanity for the next three months.
A rumour in a Portugese/Spanish/Italian/French etc newspaper is no more likely to be legit than any old fucking wank written in The Lying Rag or the fucking Metro or some such bollocks in this country.

You'll know when its legit because it will be everywhere. It wont be in one fucking paper in the arsehole of nowhere.
