Ask St. Mike for your prize.

First of all do you have a problem with me posting my opinions ?

I'm not here to count posts but to share my views with other die-heart liverpool fans but according to your post you seem to be keen on getting as many post as you can.

To be honest i skip your posts  It does become quite annoying reading some of the garbage you write. Where have all the good posters gone

Figo update from Teamtalk:

Figo future 'up in the air'

Real Madrid vice-president Emilio Butragueno admits that Liverpool target Luis Figo's future is still "up in the air".

The Reds have been considering a move for the Portuguese international, who has one year left on his contract with the Spanish giants, while Inter Milan have also joined the race to sign the 32-year-old.

Figo is keen to leave but it is thought Liverpool are unwilling to meet Madrid's valuation of the player.

"It's a situation that is up in the air," Butragueno told Real's official website. "Luis is an extraordinary professional and we have a very good relationship with him. He didn't play much last season but he is a winner, he wants to play.

"We hope that we reach an agreement that satisfies both sides."

Still doesn't resolve anything.. Perez hasn't told us anything that we don't already know, the situation is still the same as it was last week.

Can't see this happening now though.. Real are trying to play us for fools and Rafa is having none of it.. i think he's already lost interest and is looking elsewhere now.

[Fernando Morientes > 19 <]

Rafa might also be using the same technique as the the one than got Fernando Morientes to anfield. That is, pretend not to be interested anymore until Real decided to lower their demands.

[RedWolf35]

I think we should sign Figo regardless of the 2 mil fee - just think of the impact he would have on some of the young players in the squad & the extra revenue in merchandise sales - I genuinely believe he has a point to prove as well!!!

[Piewhack]

To sign him regardless of the fee would be very bad business!!

He's 32 and will want at least 40 to 50 grand a week.

So if you add the 2mil fee and his years wages (cos thats what we're offering him, with an option for an extention after a year) then we'd be paying around 5mil for one year of figo's service!  That in the long run is not a very good option.

[Fernando Morientes > 19 <]

2 millions for transfer + 4 millions in terms of wages per season and if we get him for two years, it would be 10 millions less to spend on other young players. I guess that's why the deal is still pending.

Benitez set for Tudor swoop    Tue, Jul 12 2005 11:15
Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez has targeted Juventus defender Igor Tudor and looks set to make a quick move for the player. 
Benitez has already added five players to his squad since the Reds lifted the European Cup in May, but he is desperate for a robust central defender. The Reds boss has been looking for a season-long loan deal or a player on a free transfer and sees the Croatian international as the man to fill the gap.
Tudor has long been linked with a move to the Premiership, but the Reds are now ready to make that a reality.



I really hope there is no truth in this hes not good enough 4 juve so y should he b good enough 4 us, we need players who r 1st choice at their own clubs not back-up & reserve players

[kaz the kopite]

not in milito`s league you`re right mate!!!!!

Real Zaragoza defender Gabriel Milito has told skysports.com that he wants to join Liverpool, after The Reds submitted a £7.5 million bid for his services.

Reds boss Rafa Benitez has identified the Argentine international as a prime transfer target as he seeks to add competition to his current first choice central pairing of Jamie Carragher and Sami Hyypia.

The Liga side are currently mulling over the approach from the UEFA Champions League winners, although sporting director Mauricio Pardeza insisted earlier on Wednesday that the player was fundamental to Zaragoza's plans.

Milito has emerged as one of the most impressive stoppers in Spain after overcoming an abortive medical with Real Madrid two years ago, and has now expressed to skysports.com his desire to become the latest member of Benitez's former La Liga contingent at Anfield.

The 24-year-old has two years left on his current deal at La Romareda, although he has told the Zaragoza outfit that he is keen to move to The Premiership.

"I want to leave because a proposition of this type is unique," Milito told skysports.com.

"I have demanded a settlement with Zaragoza and I believe that the transfer is possible.

"Everybody will benefit from it and I don't understand why Zaragoza are initially negative."

If Liverpool tie up a move for Milito he will join fellow summer arrivals Jose Reina, Boudewijn Zenden, Mark Gonzales and Antonio Barragan as Benitez looks to build on the club's European glory and lead a sustained challenge on the domestic front.

The stopper's agent Eduardo Gamarnik confirmed that his client was keen to be involved in such endeavours and could not turn down such an opportunity.

"Gabriel has the best opportunity of his sporting life if he goes to Liverpool," said Gamarnik.
