Tim Vickery on Talkshite about 3.30pm.

I'd be interested to know his opinion on our new colossus.

In whose stead Ross?

I reckon we will introduce him into the team slowly, it makes more sense, after all i thouht the back four looked as good as it has for a long time last satdy.

Tim Sturtridge, well respected South American Football correspondent;

“Sebastian Coates has been signed, sealed and delivered to Anfield. For a fee of less than half the price of Phil Jones the Merseysiders have bagged themselves twice the player”


I like this a lot. A LOT!!!
[/quote]

I rate Jones and wanted us to get him. If this guy turns out to be right, we may just have done the deal of the decade.
[/quote]

Jones looked impressive on Monday. I hope Coates is indeed of that level.

Agger. Not only is it a safe bet that he'll pick up an injury, we'll need Carra more than ever until Stevie G gets back playing again.
 
Confirmed on the Official =D
Liverpool Football Club announced this afternoon that they had agreed a fee of up to 11.5million Euros with Nacional for the transfer of Sebastian Coates, subject to the completion of a medical.

The Club have now been given permission by Nacional to discuss personal terms with the player and his representatives.

Based entirely on other people's gushing and zero evidence, I'm ridiculously excited about this.

He's the next Hansen, Sami and Carra rolled into one!

Fuck off, he's much better than that.

I hope he is good. Our South American track record is sketchy at best.

Im not that excited because hes a centre back who probably wont play much (until Agger breaks again) and ive never heard of or seen play.
[/quote]

if he needs a visa then he'll have to play a set amount of games to keep it (the visa).
[/quote]

A football association will typically endorse a certificate of sponsorship for a player if he has played 75 per cent of competitive games for a FIFA ranked top 70 nation over the past two years. Under no circumstances will an FA endorse a certificate of sponsorship on the first attempt if the criteria is not met.


IF he NEEDS a visa. He aint getting one.
So either he doesnt or we are wasting our time. I would suggest with a Scottish grandfather he doesnt so how many games he plays for us is irrelevant.
Although i'm happy to admit i havnt a clue.

PS-If Agger is fit i play him every game.

I think in the future Coates and Agger could form a terrific partnership.

Mate, I think he is going to be aces this lad.
 
Either we were looking to bring in both or Coates was second choice. And if he was I'm sure it was only because Jones is English and (sorry Ross) premiership proven.

I agree with Sunny though, he'll be great, and play 20+ games this season.

Isn't there a clause about players who are amazing talents getting permits? surely if he just won young player of Copa america that would do it! We got Lucas FFS so...
 
[quote author=spider-neil link=topic=46565.msg1385912#msg1385912 date=1314184425]
I wonder if jones was first choice and coates was second choice or if coates was our number 1 target all along.
[/quote]

and bidding 16m for Jones was just a smokescreen? Yeah, sneaky.

[/quote]I hope so mate. I cant get excited about signing a centre back though. I just cant, even if we signed Carvalho or Vidic. Its a Centre back. An important part of the team of course but one that brings excitement?

-So the offer's finally arrived from Liverpool?

-Yes, it has. And we're waiting on one from Manchester City.

-Compared to last week, at least now we know that you're headed for England.

-Yes, but the transfer window shuts in a few days, so right now anything could happen.

-But do you find the offer from Liverpool tempting?

-Yes, it's a club with great history and tradition in English football. Also, Luis Suárez is there who would help me a lot.

-So it's safe to say that you're headed for Liverpool?

-The offer is considered acceptable by all parties, so it could well be said that it's a done deal.

-So you're saying that you prefer Liverpool to Manchester City?

-Yes... I'd have to wait and see if a comparable offer came in from City, but I think having Luis Suárez there to help is going to be very important to me.

-Have you spoken to him in the last few hours?

-I have, yes. He got in touch with me and we chatted for a bit. He was saying that it'd be great to have another Uruguayan in the squad, especially one he knows so well.

-What did he say to you?

-He told me all about the club. That's really important to me because he's really winning over the fans and scoring a lot of goals. He's playing really well and that's good for me because I'll be another Uruguayan at the club.

-Did he tell you whether he'd spoken to the manager about you?

-Yes, he told me that he'd spoken to Kenny Dalglish and the backroom staff.

-Is it true he told you that one of the things you miss most is the sunny weather?

-Yes, but that doesn't bother me. When I'm there I'm going to have to get used to it just like a lot of other things.

-The Premier League is a very interesting league to play in, completely different to the Ukrainian league which you previously had offers from, isn't it?

-Of course, so my first intention was to be patient and not respond too quickly to the offer I received from Ukraine. There had been may rumours that English clubs were after me, but nothing concrete. Thankfully, the offer's now come in.

-Do you know when you're going over there? It's been said that you've booked tickets to travel tomorrow.

-No, I don't yet know when I'm going. I need Nacional to have a look at the offer they've received, to get in touch with me and inform me of their final decision.

-Obviously, there isn't a great deal of time to finalise the deal. Is there a chance that you'll be playing against Cerro this weekend or would you prefer to stay on the sidelines?

-I don't know, I'd have to discuss it with Marcelo (Gallardo). I've always said that while I'm here in Nacional I want to play, just like I did in the last match, but it's down to the coach as well, because he might decide to put out a team only with the players he knows he's going to keep hold of.

-At one point it was being bandied about that one of the two clubs would buy you now and let you keep playing for Nacional for six more months. Do you think this could work fo you?

-I don't know, I'd have to take a closer look at the proposals. It would depend on whether my new club kept me in consideration or not.

-Is it true that your father is in Liverpool together with your agent Matías Pittini?

-No, he's not in Liverpool. He's gone to Europe and they got in touch with him and my agent.

-Are you going to ask for the number 19 shirt?

-I don't know if it'll be available, but I'd love to have it.

-Last week you mentioned how you were going to have to start learning English. Are you now doing that?

-More or less. But in that respect Luis is going to have to give me a hand.
