Liverpool should start looking at other potential signings other than in Swansea. I can't say I'm not surprised though, since it seems Rodgers wants to reuinite with some of his old players. LFC really need to look elsewhere, because I doubt very much Swansea are willing to even sell any of their players to them.

With that said, I'm still waiting for LFC to go after Honda... and another pacey attacker would be nice too.

If Liverpool offer £20 million, I'm pretty sure Hue Jenkins would personally drive Joe Allen to Liverpool.

To be serious, it is hilarious at how Brenda's transfer activity has a strong Swansea feel to it. Borini-ex Swansea, Gylfi Sigursjfdkhfjshson- ex-swansea, Joe Allen- Swansea. And no Pool are being linked to Dorus De Vries. If he signs for Liverpool than its clear Rodgers wants to create a Swansea reunion.

Oscar's the new Kaka, somewhat jealous of all the amazing talent Chelsea is getting. I still think they need a CF, they can't depend on Torres being back.
It also seems like we are in negotiations with Santi Cazorla, amazing player. I really hope we can sign him, he is the playmaker we've needed since Cesc's departure.
 
A Swansea City spokesman said: “Swansea City can confirm that Liverpool have expressed an interest in Joe Allen, despite a written agreement with Liverpool not to approach any players within the 12-month period of former manager Brendan Rodgers leaving for Anfield.

From the Swansea statement. They're basically saying Liverpool are being dicks. OH Huwbert!
 
Haha this transfer window is gonna be a disaster for LFC. Worst yet, we might lose Squirtle, one of our best defenders.

Especially now that they've loaned out Lukaku.
Santi Carzola is really an amazing midfielder.Sucks to play for Malaga.

Are both the Oscar and Lukaku deal done?
Excellent news for my fellow countryman Lukaku, I really wish him the best of luck at Fulham FC. Great player/personality, I've got a lot of respect for him even if he grew up at my big rivals team.

De Bruyne,Marin,Hazard,Malouda.

De Bruyne isn't really a winger like Hazard, he's more like the central man behind the strikers. I wouldn't call 3 or 4 top wingers a lot for such a big team.

Oh I see.

Guys look at my Fifa 12 Manager Mode team.I started with Ajax but I put them in the second division of the Bundesliga so I could buy better players.


The format is
Position-Name-Overall/Potential
GK-Kasper Schmeichel-79/80
RB-Mario Fernandes-81/83
RCB-Jan Vertonghen-81/84
LCB-Nastasic-76/88
LB-Schennikov-76/85
CDM-Gabriel-68/87
RCM-W.Sneijder-88
LCM-Serero-73/80
RW-S.Araujo-71/84
ST-Leandro Damiao-83/86
LW-Dzsudzsak-83/85


Sergio Araujo is probably gonna be signed by Barcelona soon in real life.
 
Nice team. I'll post mine xD Playing with Liverpool

Gk - Kasper Schmeichel
LCB - Jose Enrique/Cissokho
CB - Van der Wiel/Azepelicueta
RCB - Kyle Walker
LM - Jordi Alba
LCM - Keisuke Honda
RCM - Shinji Kagawa
RM - Arturo Vidal
LCF - Jose Callejon
RCF - Pasquato
ST - Sigporrson/Kastrati/Gary Hooper

Bought Neymar just for the hell of it. He was a waste of money imo lol. Defense and Forwards is all about speed, while the midfield is all about control :D

Wow thats funny in my MM I sold Sigporrson to Liverpool.

Pasquato is really good and Arturo Vidal becomes the best defensive midfielder in the game if I'm correct. I really like your defense although I don't see why you play Van der Wiel at CB you should buy someone like Nastasic or sell Neymar and buy Pique with the money from his sale.

Only reason I use him there is because I play a really narrow layout.They are all close together, plus all of my defenders have very high sprint speed,acceleration and stamina so they can recover very fast, so even if the opponent goes down the sides they can chase and recover. Though I must admit, I suck at defending lol. I didn't buy Pique because at the time I already had Agger and Skrtel still and was focusing on the midfield and forward areas. I had David Villa before, but he got old so I sold him and bought Neymar.

Makes sense.

I forgot to say I had to sell Eriksen because he wouldn't sign an extension.
He told me he would let his contract run out and move on so I sold him to Manchester City for 43 Million Euros.
He pulled an RvP basically.

Yeah but it was sort of a good thing I brought back Wesley Sneijder and signed Kasper Schmeichel.
I was starting a 67 GK and that was my biggest need not to mention Sneijder is still 29 and is better for a cheaper price.
