      Liverpool To Beat Arsenal To Signing Of World-Class Striker

      Liverpool To Beat Arsenal To Signing Of World-Class Striker
      Brendan Rodgers' Liverpool are set to beat Arsenal to the signing of Colombia and Porto star striker Jackson Martinez according to the latest reports today.

       

      The Emirates club were believed to be in pole position to land the South American during the upcoming summer transfer window, however according to the latest reports at the Metro it is now the Reds that are closing in on a deal to sign the star striker at the end of the current campaign.

       

      Rodgers’ side were rumoured to be closing in on a deal for Benfica’s Eduardo Salvio but have given up after the player was ruled out for months after picking up a knee injury.

       

      The Merseysider’s are desperate to land a striker this summer with the long-term futures of forwards Mario Balotelli, Rickie Lambert and Fabio Borini seemingly set to be away from Anfield.

       

      Martinez is believed to be valued in the region of £25million and clubs will have to reach that fee, if not better it, in order to acquire the forward.

      I've given up hoping one of these deals will go through. Someone PM if you see him in a Photo wearing a LFC top at Melwood.  :-[

      Seeing rumors today of Clyne and Kovacic.

      The quality seems to be slightly improving. Give it a few more weeks and we'll be in for Benzema and and Pogba again. ;D

      Apparently we have made an 'improved' offer of £12.9m but they are holding out for £18m. Rumors that our 'committee' has decided to include Lucas in the deal .

      Hmmm we value Lucas at £5m then..!

      Nearly had a heart attack for that deal. First we were super close, then they came in under our nose, then we came back in under their nose. And the lad turned out to be awful in the prem.

      Kovacic I'm on the fence about but I really like Clyne.

      Would have that all day long if true, which tbh is highly unlikely.

      While we're at it, can we get Koke, Mandzucic, Suarez, Messi?  :f_tongueincheek:

      We lost Luis now Stevie possibly Sterling and depending on his injury Sturridge. We would need to spend big money to replace those players and then that would take us back to the end of last season squad wise. I have seen on this forum lists with upto 10 players going most of them bought via the Comittee why does anyone think we will sign the right players given our recent history. From day one signing Borini and Allen its been a F***ing disaster.

      Saw reports that the Milner move is in doubt because he isn't sure what our manager situation is going to be. We need to get it sorted one way or the other, could affect other deals as well.

      we need to identify the purpose of this summers window, is it to get squad fillers (i.e milner ), get bang average over priced players from the prem (i.e benteke) or actually look to get players who are capable of improving the first team and increasing the chance of top 4

      ps....i recall Brendan saying that he expects us to challenge for the league this season (during the course of this season). With the names we are being strongly linked with potentially coming in - is he winding us up? or what

      Read somewhere that this summer our 'strategy' is to recruit from within the league...

      As opposed to?

      I think Benteke, Milner, Ings etc are simply the best players Brendan can attract. Why would any top player outside of England be that fussed about playing under Rodgers?

      Vietto is exactly the type of striker we should be signing. The polar opposite to Benteke.

      We need a completely new spine, for all intensive purposes we are disabled in every sense of the word.

      DM - 20m - one who can protect the defense and but recycle the ball forward quickly.
      AM - 30m - loads of goals
      ST - 30m - loads of goals
      All we need is to spend 80m on 3proven players on those 3 positions.

      Anyother positions are a bonus. These 3 are priority.
