Guest Gemmill Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 If Bellamy hears they've signed Kuyt that'll be the end of him going to Liverpool. "Craig Bellamy needs to think about Craig Bellamy and Craig Bellamy needs to be playing first team football. The bench is not the place for Craig Bellamy." will be along the lines of what he has to say on the matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rafa Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 From the Liverpool Echo: "With Bellamy now close to becoming the most high profile capture of the summer so far, Benitez will now be hoping to resolve the long-running pursuit of Daniel Alves. Ideally, the Spanish boss would also like to recruit another striker, with Feyenoord's Dirk Kuyt top of the wanted list. However, a deal for the Dutchman is currently wholly dependant on Liverpool raising significant funds in sales." Can't see how Liverpool raise those funds with the players they are wanting to get shot of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonTastic Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 From Feyenoord football club: ‘Up to now not a single club has contacted Feyenoord about Kuyt and I have not spoken with Dirk about this,’ says club supremo Van den Herik. Over recent weeks rumours have been increasingly appearing in the English press in particular about interest from Premiership clubs for the striker and about Kuyt’s own interest in a move across the Channel. But if truth be told, the Feyenoord captain – who’s currently preparing for the Word Cup finals – has not said a thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I would hope we put a bid in before liverpool raise the funds, keep it relatively quiet and then unveil him shortly after the world cup. I have high hopes i know :!: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sturmvogel Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Try to ignore stories without quotes, I would've thought people cottoned on to this by now. No quotes about Kuyt, only ones on Bellamy which have been stolen from various other websites. So this is a non-event. Wait til after the WC for Kuyt as Feyenoord can accept offers all day for him but its up to the player to decide on the end, which won't be until after England win the WC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet Shearer's "love for the club" hasn't been similarly compromised in many a supporter's eyes. Perhaps it's a case "hear no evil, see no evil" where certain individuals are concerned.

Yet Shearer's "love for the club" hasn't been similarly compromised in many a supporter's eyes. Perhaps it's a case "hear no evil, see no evil" where certain individuals are concerned. From nufc.com's Match Reports. Alan Shearer told the Chronicle: "I think it would be great if we signed Rooney. "He will be a fantastic asset and a great investment for this football club. "It would be a great coup for the city and for the club if we can attract him here. "If he is thinking about going abroad to Real Madrid or whatever then he can do that in four or five years time. He is only 18 and he is still effectively learning his trade. "He will only be 22 or 23 in four years time so he's got plenty of time on his side and I think it would be a great step for him." "Obviously it's all up in the air at the moment. Yes he would put my place under threat. It would put everyone under threat. So what? "If he can come in and do well, then great. It's always been the rules of football if someone comes in and does well, you support him and say well done. "We are all in it for this football club and if Rooney comes in and improves us, then we are all for it and I am 100% behind that. "If we can get him it would be brilliant."
