it is complete rubbish. end of story.
well, maybe we are going for pederson, thats the only one i think wed have any use for possibly

Gonna go out on a bit of a limb here. I think Campo is a good player. I think he was a cenre-back at Madrid and Allardyce got him to play holding midfield. Good pro and good player for me.

yeh Campo would be excellent as a back up squad player

wasnt there rumours of Kevin Nolan coming? Could be a consideration if we were getting rid of Diouf for a Bolton player

Out on a limb ? I think you might have discovered a new species of tree .
Sam Allardyce has done a brilliant job with the resources available to him by signing skilled seasoned professionals who are past their sell by date but can still do a job of sorts . All of them are a quick fix as they only have one maybe two seasons of top flight footy left in them . That may suit Bolton who consder just staying in the premiership as an achievement (no disrespect to them ) but surely LFC is looking beyond just surviving ? .
I'm not knocking Campo or your assesment of him but i don't agree that we should consider him as an option even on a free , Rafa is building something at LFC and players in the twilight of their careers are not part of it .

gary mcallister anyone?

Good point and I did consider that , BUT that was then and this is now and btw Campo is not Gary Mac .
Wish he was and i'd be agreeing with you .

i remember campo when he came to england he played centre back for bolton and he was really really poor. alladyce put him as a holding midfielder and he improved some what.He wouldn't improve our midfield and i certainly wouldn't let him near the defence.We do need a centre half but definitly not him.

Spot on , when he first arrived I thought Sam Allardyce had signed the wrong Campo because to be fair the Campo I knew wasn't a bad player. He did however improve as you point out but lets be honest he's a player who is desperately clinging on to top flight footy for the wage as even he would admit his best days are behind him .

The standard of English isn't to good either......

Fair play Woof, like your style mate. Rubbish him and my opinion and then say your not knocking either! It's all in fun tho' mate.

FWIW, I think the story is very likely bollo cks anyhow.

I should have been a politician . Wasn't actually "Rubbishing" him or your opinion , just disagreeing without going into the "you're talking bollox you halfwit" kind of "discussion" that often arises in this forum when people don't have the same perspective.
I agree with you that the "story " is very likely bollox anyway

walk on .

I'd trade Diouf for a bag of M&M's.
