Transfer Rumours

Not open for further replies.
Not sure about that TBH. Flanno can obv.play there but he's fundamentally a RB, so is McLaughlin, and Smith is more of a wide midfielder. If Magic stays I suspect he may well get as many games on the left as the right, but he's basically a RB too. I'm with Modo on this, in case Robinson does get his mojo back.
 
I thought you didn't rate him? I'd rather a sell-on clause though, as you know QPR will get relegated this season or next, and if he impresses enough, he'll get a move to another club in the league.

In the next few seasons, we've got Moreno, Flanagan, possibly McLaughlin - if he can stay healthy - and maybe even Smith available for the LB spot (though Smith has the shittest luck with injuries). Unless he has a couple of outstanding seasons, it's hard to see how he's going to be able to earn a return trip.


If you look back at my older posts, I always rated him. Even higher than Flanno.
I thought Robbo looked mature for his age, but like so many other youth players he just stopped progressing. Maybe he was an early bloomer?

This is how I rated them a few years ago:

My ratings with regards to their potential:
(1-5 Stars)

Gulasci * * *
McLaughlin * * * * *
Wilson * * *
Wisdom * * *
Robinson * * * *
Shelvey * * *
Texeira n/a
Sterling * * * * *
Suso * * * * *
Adorjan * * *
Pacheco * * *

I picked the my first XI.
But here goes:

Flanagan * * 1/2 (I don't think he has what it takes to make it at Liverpool. He's the classic right back, I can't complain about his defending, but his attacking, passing etc. it's just not up to today's standard for a RB. McLaughlan has all that and pace.)

Coady * * 1/2
Kristoffer Peterson n/a (not noticed him or seen much of him)
Toni Silva * * (not good enough)
Adam Morgan * * * (Has some potential but I'm not sure about him. He's scores tons of goals but he misses 4 out 5 chances. The Fowler comparison is pretty harsh. I even think Mellor was better)
Ngoo * * (A big lanky striker, but he's just a terrible finisher. A poor Peter Crouch)

I think Eto'o will be a good signing for Everton, and I would have taken him instead of Lambert.
 
Snippets:

Daniel Agger has revealed that he is still unsure about his Liverpool future.

The Danish defender is yet to feature for Brendan Rodgers this season after picking up a knee injury on the club's pre-season tour of the US.

Agger was appointed Liverpool's vice-captain last summer, but has since struggled to nail down a first team spot under Rodgers.

He told Jyllands-Posten: 'The future is complicated.

'There are a few things that have to be sorted and we have to take it from there. I actually don’t know what will happen. It is a bit up to Liverpool.

'I have had niggling injuries at the wrong times and I have to say that it is difficult to change the team when it is winning.

'I am not frustrated by that. I am frustrated the way it happened and the way it was handled.”

Liverpool striker Fabio Borini could be on his way back to Italy, after reports in his homeland confirmed AC Milan have made enquiries about the striker.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan have made contact with the Reds over a possible loan deal for the 23-year-old.

The Rossoneri are in need of a striker after selling Mario Balotelli to Liverpool for £16million on Monday.

Milan's approach for Borini will interest Sunderland, who have been linked with the striker throughout the summer, after he spent last season on loan at the club.

Sunderland manager Gus Poyet has been frustrated by the delay on the deal's completion however, and said on Monday: ‘I think we’re getting close to a final decision either way because it’s been a bit too long.

Milan have approached Chelsea about Fernando Torres, but Borini would be a cheaper option
‘It’s time now that it’s a yes coming or a no as we need to move on.’

A loan deal is reportedly Borini's preference, which may mean he opts for AC Milan rather than a permanent move to Sunderland.

A deal for Borini to Milan could also have implications on the Italian side's interest in Chelsea striker Fernando Torres.

Milan have been in talks with Chelsea over a loan move for the Spaniard, but Gazzetta dello Sport claims the Italians see Borini as a cheaper alternative to Torres.

QPR are in talks over a £1million deal for Liverpool defender Jack Robinson and are hopeful over reaching agreement with midfielder Lassana Diarra.

Robinson, 20, was a loan target for Championship sides but travelled to London for discussions on Monday night after Liverpool accepted QPR's offer.

Meanwhile, Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva will not be allowed to join Napoli on loan. Liverpool want an £8m permanent deal for the Brazilian but Napoli would prefer a loan with a view.

Liverpool are giving a trial to Israeli midfielder Michael Ohana, 18, from Ashdod while reserve striker Kristoffer Peterson is joining Utrecht.
 
Milan are after Van Ginkel as well. He needs to go somewhere as he is a decent player but is wasting his career at Chelsea.
 
Serbian newspaper Sporski Zurnal is claiming today that giant formerBirmingham striker Nikola Zigic is a free-transfer target for Arsenal. Zigic, who left Blues at the end of last season, will turn 34 next month and was linked with Arsene Wenger's Gunners way back in his Red Star Belgrade days.
 
Tuttosport claim Juventus have rejected another approach from Manchester United for Arturo Vidal, and have told the Premier League club he is not for sale

The agent of Lazio's Belgian right-back Luis Pedro Cavanda says there is Premier League interest in his client

Juventus remain keen to sign Radamel Falcao from Monaco, but would only be able to take him on loan while Real Madrid are keen on a permanent deal

Gazzetta dello Sport say Napoli are hoping to tie up the signing of Lucas Leiva from Liverpool after their midweek Champions League tie, initially on loan with a view to a permanent deal next summer
 
Hamburg have confirmed their interest in signing Germany midfielder Lewis Holtby from Tottenham. The 23-year-old has three years remaining on his Spurs contract, but could be surplus to requirements under Mauricio Pochettino. The Bundesliga club's director Dietmar Beiersdorf told the German press:
I’d be lying if I said we have nothing to do with Holtby.​
 
Wednesday morning newspapers...
  • DAILY EXPRESS: Arsenal are ready to make a £50million bid for Paris Saint-Germain striker Edinson Cavani
  • DAILY MAIL: Manchester United striker Javier Hernandezhas emerged as a target for Benfica
  • THE TIMES: Hamburg have made an approach for Tottenhammidfielder Lewis Holtby
  • DAILY STAR: Liverpool's Joe Allen is a £20million option forManchester United
 
Alex McCarthy the Reading goalkeeper being lined up by QPR for £6m. I seem to remember we were linked to him last year after he single handedly earned a point against us.
 
However it looks like Wenger is determined to spoil all the Red Tops back page fun :

There will be no 'panic buys' at Arsenal in the last few days of the transfer window, insists Arsene Wenger. The Gunners boss was speaking ahead of his side's Champions League clash against Besiktas at the Emirates - a game you can see live on Sky Sports 5 HD from 7pm tonight.
We have plenty of players at centre-forward. In England as soon as you have a problem, people want you to buy.​

Are Chelsea seriously planning on entering this new season with only two Strikers ?
______________________

AC Milan have confirmed their interest in signing Chelsea duo Fernando Torres and Marco van Ginkel. The Rossoneri's CEO Adriano Galliani told the Serie A club's TV channel: Torres... is a great striker. We are actively working. Van Ginkel? We are confident.
 
Allen to Utd, they can fuck off, hes gonna be great this season. With Suarez gone Brendo is going to switch to a more possession game and Gerrard will feature alot less, both those things play in Allens favour

Maybe they feel that they're okay on that front, since they've been playing without him all this while. 😀

I suppose maybe Mourinho will play Schurrle as a centre forward a bit more.

Well, the pundits have said they're gonna win the league with Costa and Fabregas, so I guess that's that.
 
Return Of The Twat.

BBC Sport@BBCSport 10m
Crystal Palace set to appoint Neil Warnock as their new coach, his second spell as #cpfc boss http://bbc.in/1p87nhB

BLOODY HELL. Didn't this old hag already retire? The league this season is full of managerial twats. In no particular order:

Mourinho, Van Gaal, Wenger, Warnock, Allardyce, Redknapp, Pardew.

I don't like Lambert and Martinez either. They come across as smug know-it-all's. And Pochettino's going to grow into a twat at Spurs, if he isn't one already. Of course, when Lambert's sacked, we'll add Keane to the twat managers' list.

And then there are the twats on standby waiting for their next job - Sherwood, Moyes, ...
 
Petersen has joined Utrecht rather than be moaned to them. A bit surprising, seeing as Rodgers added him to the USA tour because he'd impressed at the start of pre-season. He'll have a decent career.
 
Man Utd have been linked with a move for Dutch international Danny Blind during the summer but Ajax say the club have made "no contact at all" over a possible deal. Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf quote Ajax director of football Marc Overmars saying: There's some rumblings around Daley, some clubs enquired, but there is no concrete offer. And with Manchester United, there is no contact at all.
