Milan Jovanovic offered 3 year deal

[Croque Monsieur]

i know. Beggars and choosers and all that.

 

i know there's no point in really saying it, but he should have just simply kept hold of at least one of the ones he's had then

 

Good point. Kind of renders the squabbling on this thread somewhat redundant.

[rage]

he's clearly rafa standard - will do as he's told so it doesn't matter that he's average

[WaltonRed]

I scored 14 in the Jupiler league from wide-right in the 01-02 season

 

My Nan scored 78 from in goal.

[sh#t waffle]

Haha, Walton Red's nearly six times shitter than his Nan!

[Anubis]

Haha, Walton Red's nearly six times shitter than his Nan!

 

And he steals electricity.

Benitez confident Jovanovic will be joining Liverpool - IMScouting

 

Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez has said he is confident that Serbian striker Milan Jovanovic will be joining the Merseyside giants on a free transfer in the summer.

 

Benitez said after Liverpool’s 1-0 win over Merseyside rivals Everton yesterday: "Nothing is sorted yet, but I'm confident it will be."

 

Reports last week claimed Liverpool had completed a deal for the Standard Liege striker but there has been no confirmation and the likes of AC Milan, Juventus, Birmingham and Valencia are all still tracking the striker.

 

It had been claimed that Jovanovic had signed a three-year contract with Liverpool worth around £10million with an option of a further season.

 

This season Jovanovic has scored 12 goals in 23 appearances and also chipped in with three assists. The Serbian international (23 caps, 10 goals) has now hit double figures for Standard Liege in the past four seasons.

 

The 6ft striker will provide Liverpool with attacking options as he can also play down the left.

[Kurt]

Liverpool.no is running a story ( quoting Daily Mirror ) claiming his agent has confirmed he has signed for three years.

[Frankenhooker]

It's in the Belgian press. His manager has confirmed that he'll be joining us on a three year deal.

 

I still won't believe it until he signs.

[Fugitive]

I like this lad, lets just hope he can adapt to the Premier League.

[zigackly]

Chamakh was just a smokescreen then.

[Royal Family]

It's all because Rafa is clearly off to Juventus, dontcha know?

[llego]

Sky Sports has Jovanovic signing.

[Glen C]

It's all because Rafa is clearly off to Juventus, dontcha know?

 

 

Well duh obviously. I mean all this getting reina to sign a new contract and going for jovanovic stuff is obviously a smokescreen for him going to juventus.

Sky Sports | Football News | Premier League | Liverpool | Jovanovic agrees Reds move

 

Serbian international Milan Jovanovic has agreed to join Liverpool this summer, according to his agent.

 

A number of clubs across Europe have been chasing Jovanovic, who is available on a free transfer when his contract with Standard Liege expires at the end of the season.

 

Valencia, AC Milan and Juventus were all thought to be keen on acquiring the attacking midfielder, but Jovanovic's representative, Zoran Stojadinovic, has revealed the 28-year-old has been convinced to move to Anfield by Reds boss Rafa Benitez.

 

"We have spoken with Rafa Benitez and he convinced us about his project for the club," Stojadinovic told the Daily Mirror.

 

"Milan speaks the language and adaptation will not be a problem for him when he moves to England."

 

Jovanovic is set to sign a three-year deal at Anfield and the news is a boost for Benitez after seemingly missing out on another free agent Marouane Chamakh.

I'll look forward to watching him at the World Cup.

Good... Signing Kuyt`s replacement then, as I can see Rafa taking Kuyt with him before Montse! ;)

[Little Sammy]

Is he better than Voronin or Degen or Nunez or the other free pile of shit that we've accumulated over the years? Read somewhere that he scored something like 50 goals in around 130 games, as a striker, in a shitty Belgian league. Awe-inspiring stuff.

You must be relieved Sir Alex hasn't signed him for your team.

Wht a diabolical post.

 

Hyypia was a central defender in the shitty Dutch league and cost, what, 3m. Awe inspiring, that.

 

This shite about 'he was cheap, so he must be shit' really pisses me off. Let's wait and see, shall we, and give the lad a chance.

1. 3 million quid in 1999 is around 9 million these days.

 

2. He didn't come for free.

 

3. Comparing the Dutch league with the Belgian league is like comparing Foster's with Carlsberg, or lemon juice with piss.

 

4. I've seen far too many false dawns to get my hopes up on this freebie, the latest of which are Voronin and Degen. Truly fucking shite.

As well as being a dedicated Man Utd supporter, Little Sammy is an accountant.

 

Would you let him loose on your money?

Fuck sake.

The chap is being written off before he even confirms he's signing for us.

 

Remember people writing Nando off when we got him first? Give the lad a chance and then have your say instead of tarring him with the same brush as Voronin and Degen.

Done some searching now and thats what hit me too, injured or simply not good enough for Shakhtar Donetsk and Lokomotiv Moscow.

 

His record in Belgium so far is 14, 16, 12 and 10 goals, not sure how good that is and what it reflects, but these are the top scorers in Belgium the last 20 years, so people can draw their own conclusion,

 

Without ever having studied him my guess is that he is average at best.

 

If he was of liverpool standard I would instantly know who the player was at the age of 29.

He played against us two years ago, he was Serbia's top scorer in a brilliant qualifying campaign for them despite playing left-mid for the whole campaign. If you don't know him it's a sign of your ignorance more than anything else
