    The panic in his voice when the discussion if a false 9 was hilarious!

    "I Just don't understand not playing without a real centre forward" on repeat. The game's evolving, people unwilling to follow suit won't have a great future in the game.

    Even Keane understood it. Him and Martinez made some great points.

    Looks like Sigurdsson is set for Spurs then, which we had done it faster...

    It's reported in an Italian newspaper I think (Gazzetta?), be odd signing another big striker when we have Carroll, although Traore does have a lot of potential.

    Suarez ruled out of USA tour, west brom game and first two EL games...

    Expected as much anyway with the olympics but at least its confirmed (well TIA said anyway). Same for Coates and Bellamy.

    Have they actually announced the full "Team GB" squad? Cant find it anywhere all everyone is banging on about is Beckham

    It would be a great buy though at 6 million, if he gets us 15 goals a season.

    Nope only the over 23s have been confirmed (giggs, bellamy and richards). Bellamy may not even be with us next season and hopefully uruguay dont go very far (unlikely though)

    Lacina for cheap would be fantastic, but for some reason I don't see it...

    Can't believe Sig has chosen Spurs (if he does). His reasons would be interesting.

    His reasons will be money plain and simple. Hes said he has a great relationship with rodgers, and spurs dont even have a manager. We're both in the europa league. So it will be money

    Nothing to do with Spurs having a better squad and team than us then? Or nothing to do with Spurs finishing higher than us for the last 3 seasons? Just...money? Ok.

    That was under Harry Redknapp's rule, now they without him. Could be downhill.

    It could be downhill, but it could also be uphill from here as well, who knows? All we know are the facts of what's happened over the last 3 seasons. Money, of course, is going to come in to it but I think that aspect is going to be considered too.

    Traore has joined Anzhi Machakalakalakalakalaka, it;s been announced on their official site. Another BS rumour then we can strike off.

    Wish we had some genuine links

    A few years back we could have slammed him for moving for cash but now Spurs do seem to be a bigger threat. Finishing higher etc.

    tbh, I think one of the biggest reasons is that he really wants a Man United move at some point - which he'd get at spurs but not at LFC.

    Can't blame him for that either, as he supports them.
