I just read on the Liverpool thread that apparently terms have been agreed with Kovacic.

Where is the uproar from Liverpool supporters that their club has tapped up a player? Or is it OK cos they are not the victims?

Why do you go in there and expect fair and balanced discussion?

Waiting for someone that isn't called Tancredi Palmeri to report it before getting too excited, but yes it sounds like we're very interested in him. No idea what stage negotiations are at or who we've spoken to though.

dont tbink barca or real would be interested.
Maybe but there'd be at least four or five teams between them and Liverpool stature wise that would have a look. Arsenal would I'd imagine. United. Maybe Atletico or PSG. And that's just examples without caring too much to think deeply about it.

The way I see it is the board overruled his decision, made the 16mil bid and after they knew they ****ed up, They decided Rodgers could not spend anything during the Jan window. I think we brought Ibe back from loan but that was it.
Yes that's the view that's been reported before. Surely there is more too it though. Seems to be a disconnect there between the Manager and the Board. Doesn't make sense to spend £16m on a striker that the Manager doesn't want and who doesn't fit the style of play. Amatuer stuff.

Might be one of those things that eventually comes out a few years down the track.

Liverpool need an Allen or Lucas replacement more than another creative mid.
Midfield next season will be something along the lines of:

Pretty happy with what we have there as a base to build from. 1 of Lucas/Can sweeping up, Coutinho/Lallana at #10, Henderson working one side of the midfield, Allen & Milner providing cover, we just need to add a player with a bit of vision & class on the ball in that final spot in the midfield 3 and I'll be comfortable with our options.
