Yep. But in today's ridiculous market... yes he's good but not that good... nee chance... 18 m million bracket price even in this ridiculous market... especially he is not the "power-house DM" ala Mahamadou... for 18 m i think the could go for sissoko at juve that's more the real power-house DM.

Fatwax Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Sissoko is a weird one, off the ball he's a machine, but generally crappy when he's in possession. No idea how he's been at Juve though, maybe the slower pace suits him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea how he's been at Juve though, maybe the slower pace suits him. on the contrary he is being very good at juve... he is one of irreplaceable instrument on the middle... overall playing seems more... like essien nowadays... playing some short simple passes... quite also like to accurate power shoot from the middle... his technical skill also has advanced... last game with juve when he play one two with amauri... then amauri scores...

fredbob Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Doubt they'd allow him to leave to a rival club, also cant really envisage a drastic change in form at any club in the prem for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 What happened to Elano? I know we have one season wonders in the prem but he was only a half season wonder and then seemed to turn to utter shite. Seemed like he had class above the usual one season wonders aswell.

Baggio Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 MARK LAWRENSON has been left red-faced by a hugely embarrassing on-air gaffe that has enraged Liverpool. The former Anfield defender claimed on Irish radio that Robbie Keane is set to be sold next month — because Steven Gerrard hinted as much to him in a private conversation. But Gerrard has quickly distanced himself from Lawrenson’s foot-in-mouth comments, insisting no such conversation took place. Lawro dropped his clanger on Today FM presenter Matt Cooper’s Monday evening show. He said: “I was having a drink with Steven Gerrard at a function on Saturday and we talked about Robbie Keane. “He said they shared the same agent and, quite honestly, he thinks something’s going to happen with Keane in January. It sounds like he could be moved on.” Liverpool reacted swiftly and angrily and insisted those were Lawro’s views and not the club’s. A Reds spokesman said: “Mark’s remarks are his interpretation of a private chat. "They do no accurately reflect Steven’s opinion of Robbie and they certainly do not tally with Steven’s recollection of the conversation itself.” Lawro, who made 332 appearances for the Kop side, also put the boot in on boss Rafa Benitez’s judgment over forking out £20million for Keane. He added: “He got it wrong. If Liverpool played in a Champions League final, an FA Cup final or a massive game they had to win, you know Keane would not start, he’d not get in the team.” Lawro tried to dig himself out of a hole by insisting: “I’m sorry if I caused any aggravation but it wasn’t meant to. Gerrard’s name should never have come up. “It wasn’t Steven saying that, it was me saying it.” http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/article2044895.ece :lol: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Breaking News: Pompey have accepted Real Madrid's bid for Lassana Diarra.

The College Dropout Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 In a 5 man midfield (okay 3 central midfielders) Sissoko is brilliant. But he can't operate with just one other CM, his passing becomes exposed. Diarra is great at what he does. Dissapointed we didn't sign him or Muntari when they where available. Shouuld've stayed at Arsenal really, would've come through superbly as last season went on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Don't know the hell is happening with Diarra. He's hardly played a game at any of the clubs he's been at but he keeps getting these transfers, seems a bit mad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I'd have Sissoko as a replacement for Butt in a heartbeat. Think he'd be just the kind of player to improve us and relish the role we'd offer him; 1st team player, protector of the back four. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Sissoko is really good very much physical player but is really up the creek when he tries to do anything overly technical, as long as he keeps it simple he's really good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
