I seriously doubt we will be getting Ever Banega guys. tbh he was even a pipe dream when Rafa was in charge.

What I heard is that there wasent any contact between Real Madrid and Stutgard about this player.

Yeah I also seriously doubt we would get Banega

He is a completely different player to Mascherano to be honest. Mascherano wayy more defensive minded, Banega is probably more of a centre mid. Good at everything but has a bit of flair about him and some of the passing he does makes me cream.

Interesting quote from Loric Remy. Nice are in negotiations with us and Spurs over a 15mil euro move.

Remy: "Choice between clubs with big futures. I've slight preference for prestige club like Liverpool but Tottenham very, very interesting."

Liverpool FC in the hunt for French hotshot Loic Remy

FRENCH hot-shot Loic Remy has opened the door to a possible move to Liverpool.

The 23-year-old Nice striker said last night he would prefer a move to the Reds after his club’s chief executive, Patrick Governatori, claimed that Liverpool and Tottenham had both made bids of “between 14.5million and 15.5 million euros.”

Anfield officials said that talk of a bid is premature, but confirmed that Roy Hodgson is an admirer of the French international and has been tracking him.

Remy, who has one international cap for France, spoke about his future after a training session yesterday and said he had “never hidden his desire to play in England.”

He added: “It will be a choice between two clubs with big futures.

“I have a slight preference for a prestige club like Liverpool, even though Tottenham are also very, very interesting.”

“Nothing has been decided. Wherever I play, I'll have to fight and work hard to win my place.”

If Masch does go I hope we get Mahamadou Diarra from Real Madrid. Top def midfielder in my opion and it looks like he'll be available.

Oh no. I'm always sceptical about players coming from the French league.

How many caps does he have for France and what is his goalscoring record like at club level?

by **Redman in wales** » Fri Jul 16, 2010 11:16 am

Loic Remy 23 years old, 1 french cap, 9 U-21 caps (3 goals)

Last season he scored 13 goals in 31 league appearances, so slightly better than 1 in 3

So basically he's the new Sylvian Wiltord? No thanks.

Have you ever seen him play?

Dider Drogba only scored 19 in 35 starts at Marsielle and he was 27...

Reds make Remy move

Skysports.com can confirm Liverpool have made a move to sign French striker Loic Remy from under the noses of West Ham and Tottenham.

New Reds boss Roy Hodgson has entered the race for the Nice ace and is hoping to beat his Premier League rivals to the forward's signature.

Remy is regarded as one of the best young strikers in Europe after impressing at Nice over the last few seasons.

The 23-year-old, who has been likened to Thierry Henry, scored 16 goals for Nice last season and has broken into the France national team.

West Ham had been leading the chase for Remy after making a couple of sizeable offers for the striker, but they were unable to agree a fee with Nice.

However, they could now lose out on Remy with Liverpool firming up their interest in the player with a bid.

Liverpool's technical director Eduardo Macia is believed to have been tracking Remy for five years and he has recommended Hodgson make a move for the pacy hit-man.

The Reds are in need of a new striker as they look to bolster their attacking options ahead of the Europa League deadline with Fernando Torres currently on the sidelines, leaving David Ngog as the only available forward for the start of the club's European campaign.

Funds
Liverpool's financial director Philip Nash is believed to have raised the funds to enable the club to make their move as they look to win the race for the in-demand Frenchman.

Remy's agent, Frederic Guerra, has admitted he has spoken to Liverpool about a possible move and that Remy would be keen on a switch to Anfield.

"Yes, Liverpool are interested in Loic and Loic is interested in Liverpool," Guerra told skysports.com.

"There has also been interest from West Ham and Tottenham and it is now up to Nice.

"Loic has always said he is keen to play in England and Liverpool are a massive club.

"I believe if Loic comes to England he will be a massive success.

"He is like Thierry Henry, but I believe if he comes to England he could be even better than Henry.

"He is a sensational player, he is very strong, very quick and two-footed. He is the complete player and Liverpool would love him."
