£5m loss in 6 months, plus signing on fees etc? That's a disaster in all honesty. I think we should get rid though as it clearly hasn't worked.

[George Costanza]

and will be accepted.

[ScottyT]

5 live know less than us.

[23_Carra_Gold]

That was reported by the red tops this morning.

 

Nothing new.

[chrisbonnie]

id take Gudjonson on loan, and then 15 million for Keane, thats not really that mush of a loss at all

 

although id rather Lennon and 10 million

[El Rojo]

We surely need another striker if Keane goes. Gudjonnson's signing would make a lot of sense in that regard.

He's not good enough at a top club so he will continue to look poor for us & his value will get worse.

 

I will be very impressed with the club hierarchy if they bite the bullet, take the press criticism & sell now.

 

How much better would it have been to take a 25% loss on Dioff after 6 mnths?

[Ted]

Gudjohnsen? Get. To. Fuck.

[ScottyT]

He played for Barca tonight, it's silly internet rumour mongering.

[Red Mist]

I hope this is true. It's shame it's not work out and I feel for Robbie since he was obviously so keen to play for us, but whoever signed him knowing Rafa didn't want him should be shot. So I hope that person is Parry.

Keane's a good footballer but he's not going to succeed here, not while Rafa doesn't fancy him. He'd be better off at Spurs where the manager will make him a bit more welcome.

Why is Keane really out of Liverpool squad?

 

Robbie Keane’s omission from the Liverpool squad to face Chelsea at Anfield this afternoon has sparked a flurry of rumours and prompted many of you to get in touch asking me what I know….

 

RedEric writes: "Guillem, is Keane signing for Spurs now he's out of the squad for Chelsea...why did Rafa sign him then? The rumour is that there could be a swap deal with Spurs today. Heard anything?"

 

Thanks to everyone who has been in touch - and keep your questions, comments and rumours coming in - but the first thing that must be said is that, with the clock ticking down fast on the January transfer window, things can move very quickly and any situation as it appears at the moment can change in the blink of an eye and deals are being proposed and advanced all over the place as you read this.

 

However, at the moment I’ve got the impression that Robbie Keane has been left out of the Liverpool squad to face Chelsea this afternoon because he has simply had enough of being left on the bench and started to believe that he may be better off leaving the club. With a game of such importance as this afternoon’s, Benitez plainly cannot risk including a player who has one eye on the exit door.

Having an eye on the exit door hasn't harmed Babel's chances his it Guillem.

 

In other news. Guillem Balague knows jack shit..

[ScottyT]

In talks with Spurs according to Sky, probably just regurgitating more shite.

 

Sad state of affairs if we can't make better use of a quality player like Keane and sell him after 6 months.

Probably best thing now. We'll get a hefty loss for him the longer it goes on. Whatever the reasons for Rafa's actions it pretty obvious he's no future, so best to get the best price and move on.

[Anubis]

Gudjohnsen? Get. To. Fuck.

I echo those sentiments.

Telegraph saying tonights 15M spurs offer was rejected.

[Anubis]

Quite right as well. With Jermain's foot in a foot sling they are in a bit of a pickle and we can affford to play hardball with only 24 hours of the deadline left.

Too fucking right.

 

£15m and Lennon.

 

They need him more than us.

have to say that's great technique with the photo...

 

[Royal Family]

Sources at Tottenham end saying they've had a bid (which jncluded Jenas and/or Bale) rejected, with Parry telling them we want the original fee in return. They're likely to return with an increased bid tomorrow morning.

Parry playing hardball!! trying to make up for overpaying in the first place.

[Moschops II]

I thought he was a poor signing in the summer, and he's actually performed below my expectations.

 

If we ended up with Lennon, Gudjohnsen on loan until the summer, the outstanding fee written off and a few million on top, then we'll have done far better out of it than we deserve to.

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

If Citeh cannot agree a deal for Santa Cruz, I think they'll be in for him tomorrow as well.
