Rumour going around that Real have reduced their bid to 21M.

1. I don't buy it

2. The only response they wouldn't have received from me if they tried to pull that is the sound of the phone disconnecting. If they reduced their bid I would rather have Xabi "rot in the reserves" then go to Madrid for that amount.

Re: Xabi Alonso will stay at Anfield, says Rafa Benitez

Wow. Who would've thought a couple years ago that we'd see Alonso hand in a transfer request?

I thought he was here to stay. Gutted... even if I knew it was coming. I don't hold it against him, unlike some on here though.

Thanks for the good times Xabi... I'd wish you well but I'm a Barca fan.

I actually dreamt last night that the whole transfer broke down.

I've also dreamt in the past we thrashed Arsenal 6-3,so it's not looking too good.

CONFUSION SURROUNDS ALONSO MOVE

http://www.football365.com/story/0,17033,8652_5463527,00.html

There is some confusion over whether Xabi Alonso has actually handed in a transfer request at Liverpool.


The usually reliable Liverpool Echo reported yesterday morning that Alonso had given the club a written transfer request, something that sources at Anfield confirmed to the Press Association yesterday afternoon.


All that apparently remained was for Real Madrid to come up with around £28million and the deal would be complete, but reports this morning suggest it might not be quite as clear cut.


The Times, a paper that has been convinced of Alonso's departure all summer, reports that the midfielder has not formally requested a move.


The paper reports: 'Sources at Liverpool said that Alonso submitted a transfer request on Wednesday evening in an effort to hasten a move to Real, but the suggestions were dismissed by Alonso's representatives, who insisted that the player had taken no such action.'


The Times also claims that a 48 hour deadline put in place by Rafa Benitez has expired, while The Guardian reports that Liverpool are holding out for over £30million for the player.


The S** is rather more certain that a deal will be done, predicting that Alonso's move could be wrapped up as early as Monday.


There has been no official confirmation from either party on whether a transfer request has been submitted.


If Alonso does leave Anfield, Lee Cattermole, Athletic Bilbao's Javi Martinez and Alberto Aquilani have all been mentioned in the press as potential replacements.


Meanwhile, Alvaro Arbeloa, who completed his own move to Real on Thursday, is quoted in The S** as saying: "I hope Xabi joins because he is a good player and a good friend."

Arbeloa is a cunt.

Sorry, old chap.
I thought you meant the rumour we agreed a fee for Aquilani.

Roma midfielder Alberto Aquilani is unlikely to leave the club and join Liverpool as far as his agent Franco Zavaglia is concerned.

Il Messaggero claimed the Reds were in Rome trying to close a deal for the Italian midfielder. It is said an offer of €20 million, plus a five-year deal for the player was being discussed.

However, Franco Zavaglia made it clear that he is unaware of any deal for his client, suggesting there would not be any move.

Tuttomercatoweb.com claim they spoke to the agent and he denied the Liverpool deal, insisting he has not heard from the Premier League side.

Furthermore, the agent made it clear that Aquilani wants to stay in Rome after signing an extension with the club earlier this summer.

Zavaglia also confirmed his client's recovery from ankle surgery is going according to plan.

Media reports have consistently linked the Italian to Liverpool as a replacement for Xabi Alonso, should he join Real Madrid.



that pisses on that bonfire then ... Cattermole it is...


[/quote]Arent these the quotes that he made when we were first linked? Since then the club have issued 'hes available' noises.
[/quote]

yep.
[/quote]So they are effectively irrelevant being as they are based upon an internet rumour and before we did make contact.

this transfer window has been brutal.

Can you remember one that wasnt?

Re: Xabi Alonso will stay at Anfield, says Rafa Benitez

Marca are reporting that the current situation is that RM are offering €27M and we are holding out for €30M - note the Euros!!! That is £23M offered and £25.5M asked for.
 
Re: Xabi Alonso will stay at Anfield, says Rafa Benitez

What a joke. In this particular case, we should refuse to sell for anything less than £30M.
 
Re: Xabi Alonso will stay at Anfield, says Rafa Benitez

Alternatively the ever colourful AS people say we are asking for €35M + add-ons against an offer of €25M with RM prefering to offer a variable cash plus player (Negredo, VdV or Huntelaar) bid. They also mention Inter may make a bid too.
