Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has made Manchester United's top goal provider Howard Webb his No.1 transfer target, after making an audacious £50m bid for their bald, cheating talisman.New Red's manager Dalglish could well make history if he manages to capture United star Howard Webb from under the bright red nose of Sir Alex Ferguson, making it the first direct transfer from Old Trafford to Anfield since Phil Chisnall transferred from Manchester United to Liverpool before any of our parents had even met.
Dalglish said: "We probably need a couple of wingers and a centre-half but it’s a waste of time if you haven’t got a decent referee in your side. That’s why we need Webby. I can understand that United may be reluctant to let him go, but if we throw Steven Gerrard in along with the £50m then hopefully they’ll be tempted to do business.
"Then, the way I see it, with Howard and Fernando working in tandem, we'd be unstoppable."
Rival manager Sir Alex Ferguson has categorically stated that Webb is not for sale under any circumstances, or at any price.
"We were prepared to let Ronaldo go for £80m," said a visibly riled Fergie. "But there is no way we're prepared to let our number one goal provider leave, especially not to Liverpool. No chance."
"His contract doesn't run out till 2013 anyway, so if he puts in a transfer request he can just cheat for the reserves until then, along with Gary Neville. He can rot there for all I care and so can Webby."
Mr Webb’s agent appears to favour a move for his most high profile client but has revealed that there are other interested parties.
“We’ve had a bid from the Pakistani cricket team," he claimed, "but they’re asking if he could be a little less conspicuous about his cheating. I had to tell them that was never going to happen. This is Howard Webb we’re talking about."
