Well done - that's a good first step. You posted without using text language and you didn't use a swear word. Pictures are good for you at the moment, that way you don't wear your brain matter out.

LIVERPOOL FC are closing in on a deal to bring Swansea City midfielder Joe Allen to Anfield.

Boss Brendan Rodgers, whose side face Roma in a friendly at Boston's Fenway Park on Wednesday night (11.30pm BST), is keen to be reunited with the talented Wales international and has made signing him his priority in the transfer market.

Allen has a release clause in his contract which is triggered if one of five Premier League clubs bid £15million for his services.

Liverpool are one of those named in the four-year deal he penned last August, along with Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea.

That has complicated matters as Tottenham, who are vying with the Reds for his signature, aren't subject to meeting that amount and could effectively land him for a lower fee.

However, while Liverpool are reluctant to pay £15million, they remain confident a compromise will soon be reached with the Swans.

The highly-rated 22-year-old playmaker, who is currently involved with Team GB at the Olympics, has his heart set on a move to Anfield and should be on board prior to the start of the Premier league campaign

have a word

i can guarentee you lad that you wont see the likes of borini and dempsey leading the line for united, city, chelsea or arsenal.
they are a mid table pairing, dempsey`s 29 and has spent his entire career at 2 clubs, some american team and fulham, he is the epitome of a mid table player.
granted borini managed 3 appearances for chelsea but since then he`s had a spell with swansea in the lower leagues then played a season at roma where they didnt even manage to qualify for the europa league.
we arent buying barcelona`s or man city`s centre forwards here, we are buying players from mid table sides.
and believe me you arent as passionate about this club as me or any other scouser, when it`s your hometown club it means more, thats just a fact.

You won't see the likes of Andy Carroll leading the line for the clubs you mentioned either. You won't see the likes of Adam and downing and Henderson in their midfield either. BR's targets so far are reasonable in terms of the valuation compared to Kenny's transfers last season. Dempsey scored twice more than our highest scorer. Borini is a promising striker that costs 1/3 of Carroll's money. only Allen if it's 15 million seems abit too high. But almost everyone is excited to see him at Liverpool. There obviously seem to be double standards here. The new manager needs to be given the chance to build his own team...

Liverpool offer contract to Brazilian teenager after scouting him online

The player's real name is William Oliveira Souza but earned his nickname due to his blistering speed.
15 yr old McLaren is expected to join up with Liverpool this weekend and has been offered a three-year-deal.
He has also attracted interest from other top Premier League clubs but the Reds remain in pole position.
‘A representative of Liverpool saw me play, liked what he saw and the club sent me a contract,’ McLaren told Globo.
‘But other teams are also interested - Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal. We’ll see what happens.’

Seems a little bit weird this one ,but most papers are reporting it .
