Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle, Sunderland and Fulham all tracking central defender Jores Okore. Bidding starts at £4M and Fulham have already had a bid rejected apparently.
He's recently said himself that he's not interested in a move that'll see him warm the bench why I believe we're not that keen after all at this point in time as he's only 20-years-old.
Strong, powerful, pacy and perhaps as good on the ball as Agger. The fact he's build like an ox and has been nutured in a club like FC Nordsjaelland where possession is god has developed him into a rather rare breed of footballer. A very calm lad too. He could have an impressive future and is ready-made for the Premiership in terms of physique.
As a type, perhaps a skilled Micah Richards.
Weird compilation really but will give you a little idea of him:

Oh, sorry. Thought this was the not so official transfer thread where you could post transfer related shite.
Should we talk about net spend, wage bills or players that are past it instead? And troll the fuck out of the thread?
I have no agenda. I'm far too old to be caring what other people think about my opinion, I'm merely concerned.
I meant the owners, after their experience with us and the Sox over the past two years, will never again sanction the kind of spending that saw us buy Carroll et al. We have spent poorly admittedly, but crucially we have been run poorly for too long. And I do not believe Henderson or Downing are dross, but they have no one giving them belief. There are plenty of mangers out there who would have them playing like world-beaters.
What we need is someone to run the football club correctly on behalf of the owners, not Ayre, and a manager who can handle the job. Sadly, I don't believe we are likely to get either. Rodgers seems like a decent guy but under his reign we will continue to be told that we are a work in progress as we fail to beat any of the top 6 teams.
We are not a training ground for young managers to learn the ropes, we are Liverpool, and as long as supporters start believing we are not good enough, and the players as they did in the first half on Sunday do the same we have no chance.
Apologies if you think that is an agenda, it isn't. All I know is we have a manager who is not even 40, with very little experience who is not motivating the team to achieve what they can achieve.

Eriksen would be an instant hit with the Anfield crowd mate. As many also predicted with regards to Allen, so there you go.
The reason why I believe Eriksen would achieve this (not saying Allen isn't going to mind) is mainly because of his attitude, his willingness to learn and his commitment.
When you add to this his Iniesta-like touch, his eye for his teammates and his skill on the ball you've got real player on your hands.
Despite being a number 10 on the pitch he's not shy from running that extra yard to help the team. In fact quite the opposite which his distance covered stats in the Champions League group stage underlined. He ran more than anyone else in the tournament.
Weaknesses
He's not the biggest lad on the pitch which could prove a challenge. He has recently bulked up a bit but would probably need to hit the gym still but as he's quite agile and atheltic he doesn't need to be that strong.
When being man marked (especially by Khedira at both International and Champions League level) he has struggled to make an impact as he's got to get used to the attention and focus on him when playing even the best. He certainly struggled during the Euros as well, which also could have something to do with the fact he was 19 at the time and had played 60 games that Season already. He was simply tired and not 100 percent.
Goals. He doesn't score quite enough but is getting there. He's got quite a decent shot on him with both feet actually, and I believe it's only a matter of time before he's going to hit the net a lot more than what he's been doing so far. He likes to set up teammates though and that'll never change. Leading the assist table in ChL as well I believe.
At the end of the day Christian Eriksen is a major talent with every chance of becoming one of the best players in the world. We'd be very lucky to get our hands on him.
My definition of ambition is not wasting money. That's not my point at all.

Weird we were only offering him a trial wasn't it?
