El Syd on form here
I hope Iago brings his virtues onto the pitch.
i hope he brings a few goals myself
So Iago Aspas looks like it’s all but done. 12 goals in La Liga in 35 matches. Not bad I suppose - I think Michu had a similar record at Rayo Vallecano. He’s 25 but has never been capped by Spain - similar to Michu. I think Rodgers is banking on a similar impact.
He can equally play wide, which is another reason why Rodgers wants him. He also had 6/7 assists I think, which when added to his goals, considering he was surround by shite at Celta, is not a bad return at all
He also got sent off for head butting an opponent 
Luis Suarez has repeated his desire to leave and is increasing his attempt to whore himself out to Real Madrid. The cunt should show a bit more respect to us fans who have stood behind him through thick and thin.
YNWA.

50m and he can go do what he wants. The Spanish press are as bad as the English, if not worse. Look at the hard time they gave poor Guti all because he was merely banging a transsexual! Shocking stuff.
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has reiterated his love for the club, but again insisted that he finds life in England very hard amid reports of a summer exit.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]The Uruguay star is currently in South America preparing for the Confederations Cup, having already revealed he wants to leave Anfield this summer.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]Liverpool insist Suarez, who is serving a 10-game ban from domestic football after biting Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic, is not for sale but the player believes the treatment he receives in the press leaves him in a difficult position.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“Ever since I arrived I have felt bad, they have never judged me for my play but with the attitude that he dives, protests, makes gestures, racism… everything,” Suarez told television show RR Gol.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“They have never spoken well of me. For that reason, when I was told I could win the Player of the Year award, I said: ‘I will not get excited as I know that I will never win an important award in England’.”[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]Suarez also feels the Football Association are against him, comparing his ban for racially abusing Patrice Evra to that of John Terry, who was suspended for half the amount of games after a similar incident with Anton Ferdinand.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“Without any proof they gave me an eight-match ban, but with Terry, where they had proof, lip-readers, they gave him four. I’m South American and I think that’s the root of all of this,” he continued.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]"Liverpool is a club that I dreamt about playing for as a boy. I have been with great players there, they know me and I would love to continue for many more years at Liverpool. The stadium is spectacular, the fans are phenomenal: people with tattoos of me, things that I could never have imagined.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]"After the [Evra] suspension people would come up to me, this is something that really touched me and they would say: “Luis forget everything and stay.”[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“But I can’t forget as it was something that I had to suffer, that my family had to suffer and away from football I have a family to support and who are hurt by these things.”[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]Asked again where he sees himself moving to, should he leave he said: “My agent said to remain calm rather than quiet, remain calm and when there is concrete interest you’ll be the first to know.”[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]Suarez also recounted a recent incident during a shopping trip, which affected him and his family.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“About a week ago I was walking in a shopping centre near Manchester and three or four guys asked me for a photo,” he revealed.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“While we were posing for it my wife said to me “Luis, get out of the photo”. She noticed they were making biting gestures. I was with my wife and my daughter. Things like that get on your nerves. My wife was on the brink of tears and the blokes ran off laughing. You get tired of stuff like that.”[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]Suarez has already declared that he would be open to a move to Real Madrid and that remains the case.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“I’m not sure if I see myself in the white (of Real Madrid), the only thing I know is that I have a contract,” he said.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]"Any player would like to play for a great team and Real Madrid certainly are that.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]"Every player wants to reach the very top and Real Madrid are at the very top, but everything that has been said is just rumours, I have had nothing concrete.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“Obviously Real Madrid is a great team and every player dreams about them; Real Madrid is Real Madrid and it’s as high as you can go as a player and they will always tempt you.”[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]He admits that he and compatriot Edinson Cavani don’t speak about their respective futures, with the Napoli striker also the subject of regular speculation.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“We have never really spoken about whether this club or that is interested. Obviously we talk about football; he asks me about the Premier League and I ask him about Italy,” he said.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]"But we have never talked or even even joked about one of us going to one club or another.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial][SIZE=14px]“I would prefer to have him as a team-mate than a rival because he is a great player. Hopefully he will go to one of the four you dream of because he has great power.”[/SIZE][/FONT]
Sky reporting that Liverpool are in talks over Simon Mignolet and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
[SIZE=3][FONT=arial]Two interesting signings. Mignolet is a good keeper. Don’t know what that means for Reina’s future. The other lad looks like a real player. He has a fantastic goal scoring record for Shaktar and Armenia. Apparently he destroyed Denmark by himself last week for Armenia in a 4-0 victory.Can’t believe that Liverpool would get him actually.[/FONT][/SIZE]
Mkhitaryan is sheer class. He would be a sensational signing.

The newspapers are reporting that if Liverpool get Mignolet they will then sell Reina to Barcelona. I think this would a good move for both the club and Reina. Still Liverpool would need to sign another good keeper that can challenge for the spot.
On Suarez the club should tell him that he is not for sale but if they receive a bid that is within their price region then they will consider the offer, other than that stop whinging, keep your mouth shut and honour your contract, after all he brought all this on himself and the club have done but support him through everything.
We’re going to win the league…

I would say that Liverpool have no chance of signing the Armenian. If Fernandinho is going for £35m, then I’d imagine Mkhitaryan would be going for even more and I don’t think Liverpool have that kind of money.
25.5m is the fee quoted.
I suppose it depends how much they get for Suarez
While Mkhitaryan would be a great signing for us, we will need a 20+ goals a season striker to replace Luis-any rumours about who this might be?
