I think Alonso is supposed to be homesick and unhappy about not playing much (he's been injured ffs) and he feels that his Spanish career is under threat.

Probably all bollax but no doubt Sabre will let us know soon enough.

I think Xabi is delighted playing in Liverpool Football Club, so he has said in some recent interviews, and when he's asked about his future, he says his contract end in 2012, and that's saying enough.

Xabi always has admitted that in a club like Liverpool there will be competition for places and has never moaned about fighting for a place.

(don't make me find it, I'm lazy today) but that's the official words of Xabi coming from his mouth. If a journo wants to say otherwise, great, but I believe what Xabi says.

Don't worry S@int, I know Mascherano is 17M away of being a long term Liverpool player, but I think we'll buy him with no need to sell Xabi. Sissoko plus a bit sum could do.

Alonso is an expensive player. A player is valued depending if who is able to buy values the player. The ones that are able to pay big sums are in England and in Spain. In Spain, Alonso has more value than Mascherano, he doesn't occupy a foreign place in the team, and simply has more reputation. A trade like the one this threads proposes would be seen as a bargain for them, but I don't think it's good deal for Liverpool: Xabi Alonso for two players that only yesteryear had not a place in Manchester and Arsenal? let's be wise, por favor.
