If Liverpool/Arsenal aren't completely sold on him, these twitter rants won't exactly convince them to buy. Hopefully it will put them off.

 

He's too expensive for Liverpool,  presumably they mean wages wise.  Not going there.

Pretty unambitious lot if that's the case. :shifty:

The waiting game from Dalglish according to this from the Mirror.

Always a likely scenario I guess.....

 

Dalglish waiting for right moment to make cut-price Enrique offer

 

Published 23:00 26/07/11 By David Maddock

 

 

Kenny Dalglish is prepared to play a waiting game to land Jose Enrique.

 

The Liverpool boss has been put off by Newcastle’s vastly inflated valuation of the Spanish international left back, and has resisted the temptation to make a formal offer.

 

But Enrique has just a year left on his current deal, and has indicated he has absolutely no intention of renewing after the club failed to make him an improved offer.

 

 

 

Newcastle have already been looking for a replacement for the Spaniard, and have intensified their efforts after Enrique criticised their lack of ambition this week.

 

The player was fined for that outburst, and Magpies boss Alan Pardew has drawn up a shortlist of potential successors, with Manchester City misfit Wayne Bridge a top target.

 

All that has persuaded Dalglish to wait for the right moment to make a reduced offer for the player, whom he values at around £5million.

 

Newcastle won’t want to go into the new season with the risk of losing him on a free, which would happen should they fail to sell him before the summer transfer deadline expires.

 

And that should see them reduce their asking price significantly, as the end of the transfer window looms at the end of August. Liverpool are prepared to wait that long.

 

Enrique himself is desperate to move, and would welcome the chance to go to Anfield, given the club’s obvious ambition.

Surprise, surprise. That senior source in the Express again, to the same journalist as usual...

NEWCASTLE HIT BACK AT JOSE ENRIQUE’S JIBE

 

Wednesday July 27,2011

By Niall Hickman

 

NEWCASTLE are furious about Jose Enrique’s Twitter outburst in which he accused the club of selling big-name players and not offering him an improved contract.

 

The board say Jose Enrique, whose deal runs out in May, has been offered a £50,000-a-week, five-year contract. Newcastle are also adamant there has been no firm interest in the Spanish full-back, either from rival Premier League clubs or from Spain’s La Liga.

 

A senior Newcastle source said: “The claims Jose Enrique has made are wrong. We have made him a substantial offer and there have been no offers for him from other clubs, either domestically or from abroad.

 

“What he has said on Twitter is simply not true. The board are furious over this. The club wants to keep its best players, but like all clubs, the bills have to be paid.”

 

Newcastle owner Mike Ashley and his managing director Derek Llambias are convinced Enrique will now leave St James’ Park this summer, but both are angry that the player has used his social networking account to claim he has not been offered a new deal.

He had a much better second half than first. Struggled going forward and passing in the first, looked really unimpressive. At one point in the second he dribbled the ball directly out of bounds, but he made some nice attacking moves and was good defensively the whole game.

Who knows, maybe his little rant even if unprofessional might have cleared the air a bit....like a thunderstorm that had been brewing for a while.

£5m is nowhere near enough. I'd sooner let him go next summer for free than accept that.

We are only talking about it just because some Mirror hack made it up. The article is pure bullshit.

One desired effect of Jose's outburst will of course have been to reduce the price we can get for him.

 

Hence Ashley's fury about the whole saga.....

 

I see, in that case do you reckon he was even more furious with himself after his fuckwitted decisions lead to relegation and a far bigger loss of revenue than anything Jose has done?

I would imagine he was metaphorically kicking himself yes
