[best-foot-forward]

To the tune of who let the dogs out

NU RI Sa hin
Oo oo oo oo

oh no....for that reason alone, heres hoping he fails the medical 

[Les Willis]

This sounds good, but does Rodgers only buy midfielders?

[NaivetyinBlack]

Unbelievable. Even with all the speculations and ITKs running their mouths, I never for a second believed we will be able to land him. He's bloody world class. Well done to everybody involved with this deal.

Welcome to Liverpool FC Nuri. You're going to love it here. 

[cashmere pringle]

never heard of him.

if is he so good why is he being loaned ?

[pjshaun]

Fantastic !!!!!!!! Welcome to Liverpool Mr. Sahin. Let the game begin......

[Always_A_Red]

This sounds good, but does Rodgers only buy midfielders?

Borini

[Fromola]

And he'll make his debut against . . . Arsenal 

[Didi_ram]

After Suarez, the first world class signing

[Mr Bojangles]

Welcome Nuri

[mkferdy]

Should be a good signing. Sahin, Lucas and Allen as a midfield 3 looks good to me !!

[Fromola]

Did you see the state of our midfield last season? Or on Thursday night without Lucas and Allen starting?

[HiroProtagonist]

Loan move. Um. Goes in line with me thinking we're becoming the new Aston Villa.

Yeah, because Villa always sign the likes of Sahin on loan.

[Les Willis]

Borini

Oh yeah, forgot about him. 

[Always_A_Red]

never heard of him.

if is he so good why is he being loaned ?

Some shite spanish and german pair named Xabi and Mezut dont seem to want to have a bad game to give the lad a chance 

[se9R.F.L]

Great news. Lets hope he slots in quickly, scores and gets 2 assists on his league debut next weekend :p

That was the longest 48 hours of my life. Felt like 3 weeks.

Sorry mate, I was only kidding. I should have put a smiley in there.

[loozy]

He could play instead of Sami who was shite in the Clasico 

Am made up if this is true, he was a savage player for Dortmund, but I am not believing it until I saw awkward med check pics 

[Jig.]

Great news, welcome to Liverpool FC Nuri!

[Upinsmoke]

Fair play for pulling this one off. Let's hope he does brilliant for us and beyond that....who knows.

Welcome Nuri.

[RedBlakey]

Really looking forward to watching the lad play.

Welcome Nuri, you're gonna fcking love it here.

It seems a lot of money and hassle just to get a player on loan with no option to buy in the contract.

I can see this ending in tears.

[Didi_ram]

We're a Dempsey and a striker away from challenging for the top 3.

[Fromola]

Sorry mate, I was only kidding. I should have put a smiley in there.

No worries. I've just heard people say that when it was clearly a big priority to sort the midfield out. A good midfield is good for the defence and forward line - a bad midfield effects the whole team. We now have a good midfield with Lucas, Allen and Sahin.

[Melbred]

It seems a lot of money and hassle just to get a player on loan with no option to buy in the contract.

We're pretty much just paying his wages. Don't see how that's a lot of money for a quality player.

Some pretty miserable people on here.

He plays nothing like Robbie Savage

[NaivetyinBlack]

You can never satisfy some people. He's a world class player and all we are doing is paying his wages. If he plays his A game and helps us reach the top 4, I would be forever grateful and will wish him luck while he goes back to Madrid.

[tHe^CuLpRit]

Nuri, aha ha ha ha ha ha
I love you
Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha

Those who know, know

 

[ScouserAtHeart]

Sahin vs Podolski again next week. Should be one hell of a contest

[clinical]

I love these threads, people talk like they're actually talking to Nuri Sahin thinking he's going to read this.

[Trada]

We're pretty much just paying his wages. Don't see how that's a lot of money for a quality player.

I'm not going to get too attached to him, even if he's a world beater with no option to buy if he sets the premiership alight someone like Arsenal or Man city will come in for him at the end of the season.

[CraigDS]

I don't care how much he cost, as long as he brings more to the pitch than we are paying is all that matters.

I also doubt we offered more than double what Arsenal did when 50% again would of done it.

[Drinks Sangria]

Please stop dampening the excitement I feel at signing this lad. He's quality. Don't think because Real aren't playing him that he isn't. Lots of top players who didn't make it at Real Madrid are players we would bite the respective clubs hands off for at this current moment in time. I can think of at least five, probably more. It seems as though there is no substantial loan fee included, just a portion of his wages. Good deal then. Hopefully he comes here and does brilliantly, with similar brilliance in Madrid from Modric et al. Lets make it impossible for him to want to leave. If I see any more ridiculous statements or nonsensical negativity, I'm probably going to go apeshit.

[Gus 1855]

Excellent bit of business. If he does well it will be tough for us next year when he has to go back, for that reason I am not sure how much I will allow myself to warm to him.

Best case scenario, we get into the Champs league, play excellent football and Nuri decides he wants to stay and give Real Madrid a bit of a problem.

until we know of the full details or you give us your source I've felted this...

[CraigDS]

I'm not going to get too attached to him, even if he's a world beater with no option to buy if he sets the premiership alight someone like Arsenal or Man city will come in for him at the end of the season.

If he sets the PL alight and helps us to top 4 what have Arsenal got to offer him we haven't?

City yeah, they can offer him silly wages so can see that.

[Didi_ram]

Easily a 25m midfielder is Sahin.
Well worth it.Season long loan,and then let us see what happens. With Madrid, you never know. They might buy some top CM and Sahin could be up for grabs.

[Melbred]

I'm not going to get too attached to him, even if he's a world beater with no option to buy if he sets the premiership alight someone like Arsenal or Man city will come in for him at the end of the season.

No one is saying that you should.

Just appreciate him for what he is, a very talented player who will help us in our push for a Champions League spot.

If we get Champions League, anything could happen.

[Sorted!!]

Germans do well over here so good news.

Aside from the fact that he's Turkish 

[Pistolero]

Excellent bit of business.

for Madrid yes...remains to be seen if it is for us....lot of dough that for a cameo season

[Melbred]

No it's a 5m loan fee plus his wages of £120k a week.

It's a lot of money for a loan deal with no option to buy.

He's a really good player but Madrid have taken us to the cleaners.

I know you must be pretty upset right now considering the ramifications of this loan.

The only place I've read that is from a bitter Arsenal twitter account. Even Wenger himself said that the reason he didn't sign Sahin because he couldn't offer him the playing time.

The consensus is that we're paying 5m in total - 2m loan fee and 3m to cover 70% of his wages.
