rumour's of Schurrle leaving and salah, I'd Love schurrle at liverpool, doubt he will come, obviously if we get lavezzi cheap enough we wouldn't need him but its an option

Messi rumour is ridiculous, if it's not on sky sports its Bullsh*t


Lavezzi would be alot cheaper than Andre , Though Andre has longer in him , Both would be good signings but i dont see Andre leaving , Would of loved Lavezzi here in his napoli days.


Although you say you don't Andre leaving I am just not too sure about that, everyone knows Mourinho if he doesn't like the player he won't keep him, He has got other option's too - Willian/Oscar/Hazard? , I mean Andre gets abit of first team football but not a huge amount and I feel if the right offer comes in for him he would go, Salah on the other hand I think will surely leave

Lavezzi for 8 Million would be a bargain compared to the 20 Million that was proposed last time we went in for him.


I dont know , The amount of chances he has given Andre (To me) suggests he rates him highly , I know he hasent got much gametime but look at KDB ,He was allowed one bad game and he was sold ,Andre has had more bad games than that (Which may suggest he is off because he has been given more than one chance) but then i just dont think he would be allowed those opportunity if we were going to sell him

Lavezzi would be a bargain at 8M but as i said , For CFC it wouldent be good buisness imo , For a club like liverpool it would be a great signing as he could come in and be one of the stars of the team just for 8M but i wouldent represent the best buisness , What is he like 29-30 now? a few years tops playing time , Going to be on the downward spiral fairly soon (One would imagine) , They should go for someone who is around 21-25 someone who has proved himself but isnt the finished article yet , Yes you may need to pay more but your either going to sell him for more or have a great player for years to come , Someone like Andre would be great buisness for liverpool imo.

Schurrle gives us another option to the defensive work of Willian, he is just the player you want to have on the bench when 1-0 down in the 70th minute. BUT, I still feel Willian is a stronger choice for a starter & Andre is too good to be sitting on the bench for 80% of the matches, I wouldn't expect him to be happy with that. Then to add to that, if we go and get Reus/Lavezzi or any other winger, he would have even less opportunity to play. That way I see it, if we sign another winger then he will go but if not, then he will stay. In my opinion Salah will be gone either way, he's just not suited to the Prem, he lacks strength and power way too much. Just gets pushed off the ball every time he gets it

Yeah i think willian is stronger choice aswell and personally i would prefer him over anyone else (When he is on form) because he balances the team perfect , Ivan is more attacking - Willian is more defensive - Azpi is more defensive and hazard is more attacking.

No chance salah will ever be a starter for us imo but the thing is , As you mentioned if we get a lavezzi or a reus (Espically reus , I wouldent want Lavezzi) would either of them 2 players or willian be prepared to stay on the bench? You say about andre not wanting to stay on the bench but will them players want to?

Thats why i love Mikel , He can come in whenever we want , Sits on the bench for the rest knowing he is not first choice but staying proffesional , You dont find many players like that these days (And im not talking about players staying at a club just to get money - EG - Kalou)

Obviously no player wants to sit on the bench for half the games, but we play around 60 games in a season... It's Jose's job to convince the players & to keep them happy with it, just look at the likes of City who have the likes of Aguero, Dzeko, Jovetic and now Bony all for one position, they are all 25m+ players & they manage to do it

Really surprised Dzeko has stayed as long as he has to be honest, I almost thought he'd certainly leave when City brought Jovetic in, also surprised no premier league team has seen that if they offer him regular starts they could probably entise him, I mean for me he would have been a good avenue for Liverpool to explore over buying Balo

Yeah thats true but surely that applies for Andre to then? , If we could get willian / reus / lavezzi to go on the bench for a x amount of games then surely we can with Andre too? , I think the team is perfect as it is , I wouldent know how to improve this team , Before i might have said a better RB but i dont think we could get a better RB , Maybe cahill? but then JT is getting old too , The rest of the team is perfect , Some of the best players in the world + they are young , There now always on form (Willian and oscar) but if they can get more consistent we can easily challenge the top teams in the world.

One thing im worried about is what i mentioned above - The JT/Cahill situation - I like cahill and think JT can still last another 1-2 years atleast , But we need to sort something out with CBs in my opinion , Would you trust Zouma/cahill? - I trust JT/Cahill , JT/Zouma but i dont know if id be happy going into games with Cahill and zouma (As well as the fact we will have no backups then) , We need atleast one world class CB imo , Maybe not now . Maybe in the summer or the year after , Get zouma playing a lot more or send him on loan to a PL club and then have Zouma / a purchased CB as the two starters IMO.

But he's still under contract for another 3 and a half years, so even if he wanted to leave, City wouldn't have to sell him

City wont sell though , Correct me if im wrong but citys preffered option is playing with 2 up front? , They havent had the chance this season but im pretty sure they would like to play with 2 , Hence bony and there is 4 STs there for 2 spots - CFC have 3 for 1 (Costa , Remy , Drogba) if im wrong and they play with 1 , Then Djecko should be let go off.Though has Jovetic really proved to be much better than Djecko?

Don't think Dzeko is who we would need to sign at liverpool, Not the quickest player in the world.. yes he is a deadly finisher but we need a more pacey player to play with sturridge

Yes You can agrue suarez was not and they linked amazingly but someone like benzema, Higuain is who we need at liverpool it's just bringing a big name into anfield at this present time.

It depends how Pellegrini feels Aguero is doing after injury I think, they looked at their strongest with nasri/navas on each wing playing a 4231 with Aguero up top, I mean I cant ever really keep track with City, they seem to change it up each season, but I would have to feel Dzeko will go by the end of the season.

PS: Without going too far off football, how was your interview?
