Ashley Gray ‏@AshleyWGray:-

Lacina Traore, linked to Liverpool again this week, is joining Anzhi Makhachkala - his club Kuban Krasnodar have confirmed.


Few! Dodged a bullet there I hope.

Huge sigh of relief about not getting Traore (if we were ever in for him).

I didn't think it was possible to turn things around but in the dressing room at halftime Rafa Benitez was calm - "We are Liverpool FC, we have so many fans, we are not going to be slaughtered. If we can score a goal quickly we push on from there.""

I think you do Andy a disservice. He is better with his feet then most people give him credit for.
I know but caomapred to Traore he is better with head and Traore is better with feets.

...if Ian Ayre has been identified as the lead negotiator for Liverpool that will be a positive step forward. Ayre has demonstrated in the commercial space that he is outstanding at negotiating value on the ‘big ticket’ commercial deals.

It is a natural progression that Ayre takes the lead on transfer negotiations. It should be noted that Ayre is not involved in identifying players or determining value, but will take the shortlist and work within the technical committee’s value parameters to source the best possible deal for the club.

Skim reading it earlier, I missed this bit. I'm glad it's not true.

I saw the Champs League matches and he look decent there, shall we add him to the list of Russian League players that we will never get? I'll just put him next to Honda....

Doesn't the current technology have any ways to confirm a person's age?

Anyway, imo Doumbia could well be 24 or 25. And looking how he's improved massively (looking at stats) in the last few years it's unlikely that he's something like 28 or older.

What do you reckon? ::)

Saw Doumbia once or twice in the CL. Looks a good player that wouldn't struggle to fit in with the tempo and physicality of the PL. Don't know an awful lot about him though.
It's hard enough remembering my opinions without remembering my reasons for them.

Its not even a joke anymore, he's actually getting investigated atm i think and with our luck we'll buy him for £25m and within a year he'll have a full head of grey hair and begin to forget which goal he's shooting into.
