Demba's a very logical assumption tbh. I wish he would just stop dicking about and let the club know if he's staying or going. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems like a convenient rumour based off them spending a year together at Swansea. I don't see Liverpool spending big on him, and I don't see Roma selling cheap. edit: didn't even spend a year. Spent like 3-4 months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've gotta be looking at something north of 12m, which seems insane to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Beeb reckon it is Borini btw http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18773700 Roma forward Fabio Borini is expected to become Brendan Rodgers' first signing as Liverpool manager. The 21-year-old Italy international worked with Rodgers at the Chelsea academy and on loan at Swansea. Talks between the parties are ongoing and although the deal has yet to be agreed, the potential fee is likely to be in the region of £8m. On Monday Rodgers had stated that he was close to making an "exciting" signing. "We hope to complete a deal this week which will be a real exciting one for the club," he said. “ "He will be terrific, I'm sure. And the supporters will absolutely love him. "Going forward hopefully we can bring maybe two or three more and then with the group of players that I already have it'll bode really well for us and provide us hopefully with that strength in the group to challenge in every competition." Rodgers has admired Borini since the Italian scored scored six goals in just nine Championship appearances while with Swansea towards the end of the 2010-11 season. The former Parma forward has one international cap and was part of the Italy squad that finished runners-up at Euro 2012. One player who chose not to move to Anfield was new Tottenham midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson. But Rodgers admitted that it was his reluctance to up Liverpool's financial package to match a more lucrative deal being offered by Spurs that meant the player moved elsewhere. "We didn't lose out because of not wanting to spend the money [on wages]," he added. "We lost out because the manager wasn't prepared to move on it. There's no doubt there'll be other targets and other people that we need to look to bring in. "But we won't lose out on wages. If we feel there's a player out there in the market whose value and worth can add value to what we're doing here then we'll do everything we can to bring them in." However, Rodgers did admit he does not possess endless transfer funds. "We don't have a wheelbarrow load of money, there is not the money flying about people think there is," he added. "There certainly won't be as many signings as is being labelled out there. "We want to work with the great players we have here and make three or four tweaks in relation to the squad that can help the group. We want to be competitive in every game and challenging at the top end." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Tomorrow's Times reckons Carroll is on his way out. Maybe not a popular choice but at the right cut price, I'd have him back. Being at Newcastle would add another 25% to his game. I don't think his heart has ever been at Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 It'd have to be comfortably under £10 million before I'd even consider it to be quite honest. Even then I don't think he's the player we need. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
