LIVERPOOL'S Argentinian trialist Jonas Manuel Gutierrez has arrived at Anfield with a remarkable claim - his family are all Evertonians!

 

The 20-year-old midfielder, currently spending a week on trial with the Reds, believes he can add the qualities of a Ryan Giggs to Gerard Houllier's team next season.

 

But it is his admission he comes from a family of Blues that is sure to raise a few eyebrows around Melwood as he tries to secure a long-term deal.

 

Argentina is not regarded as a hot-bed of support for David Moyes' side but Gutierrez is seeking a move to Merseyside after falling out with his coach at Velez Sarsfield.

 

And he believes he can bring valuable flair to the Reds set-up after his representatives secured a trial through Houllier.

 

Gutierrez said: "I think I play as well as someone like a (Andres) D'Alessandro, or a (Ryan) Giggs. I am very creative and like to play on the left side.

 

"My game is more technical and not so physical, so I would rather play in Spain. I also like the warm weather and speak the language there and so I think it would be easier for me to adapt.

 

"But, for now, England would be more than fine, it would be a good starting point for me to move on to Spain.

 

"I am certain I can play at the highest level, and make an immediate impact on any team that takes me. My club in Argentina is a big club, so I would rather come in at a higher level than with some small club."

 

Gutierrez, valued at £2m, admitted he is desperate to get away from Sarsfield after a dispute with the Velez coach.

 

"The coach and I have had a personality clash," he said. "That's why I decided to quit the club, it was a personal decision.

 

"An Argentinian told me he represented Liverpool and spoke to my team and my family about me coming over to sign a contract with them.

 

"Funnily enough, my family are all Everton fans, so it will be strange to come to Liverpool to play for Liverpool. But I am a professional and will do my best."

Yes, yes we can.

Two years later, he finally left. :lol:

Can you imagine how bad he must've been 10 years ago? :lol:

 

:dontknow: are we forgetting how good he has been for us based on half a season?

 

The guy has always had his flaws, but he's had consistent spells of quality throughout his time with us. There was a time when he seemed to have even sorted his crossing out... shortly before Enrique left and he became a left back. He's been shite this season overall and I'm concerned he won't get back to what he has been, but prior to this season his time with us has been a success from an individual perspective.

He's been an NUFC player for 4 and a half years. You know as well as I do there's loads more to it than the rubbish he's served up since August.

Can't be bothered getting into this again, far better, more positive things to contemplate. He was poor in his first season, OK in The Championship, mostly poor with good late form in the first season back, useful last season and absolutely terrible this campaign. That's all I'm gonna say on him; thankfully we've replaced the deadwood with real footballers recently and he's next.

Thought he was decent tbh. Put a shift in and was tidy enough on the ball.

 

Offered next to nothing in an attacking sense, but you can go back to the game after his debut for evidence of the same. He's just not a goal threat. Apart from when we play Wolves.
