Got one:
LIVERPOOL are still weighing up a move for wantaway Valencia striker Mista in a bid to reunite the hitman with former boss Rafael Benitez at Anfield.
Mista, the reigning Spanish champions’ top goalscorer last season, broke off contract talks with the club as it was thought he was unhappy with the terms offered. Liverpool are keen to reunite Mista, who netted 31 goals last term, with his former boss Benitez at Anfield. Mista had made a verbal agreement with the Mestalla club, only for him to controversially break it on returning from holiday, leading Valencia to suspect he had been approached by a third party. Liverpool have been mooted as Mista's most likely suitors as the opportunity to be reunited with Benitez - who took him to Valencia from Tenerife - could prove tempting for the 25-year-old. Manchester United have also previously been linked with a move for Mista. It has also been whispered that Liverpool may use their own wantaway striker Milan Baros as bait to tempt Mista to Anfield.

Rumours, on the discussion board of the LFC supporters club in Norway, predicting Owen-exit to Spain. Barca and Real mentioned. Members here claim that theese roumors are verified by "trustworthy sources". I can`t say that I have too much faith in them, but must admit that St. Michaels signature on a new contract is needed to secure my good nights sleep...

Nowadays, due to all the speculations on new signings and rather "shocking" exits, I would benefit on a fair amount of sedatives

That wouldn`t be a problem. I hope I don`t risk my neck by claiming that here I`m amongst friends, and what kind of a friend would I be if I didn`t help out in times like this.. And besides, there are important matches ahead; If I spent all on myself I`d risk missing out on highlights of the seasong. Can`t have that, now can we

This is starting to get tedious and lacks some class on behalf of LFC. Danny deserves better.
On the mercenary side, I'm not sure what they will do, and does the $$$ for Murphy impact/stall any imminent purchase of players?

By now I myself was about to add on with prozac, but then the news indicating that we`re in pole position when it comes to signing Alonso, started ticking in, so I think I can stay in there for a little while longer just clinging to the sedatives 
I can`t remember being so nervous before; This rollercoaster of roumors can`t be healthy in the long run 
Really looking forward to tonight though!!!
