Clint Dempsey

Yaaaay! Dempsey!

Thanks Steve, hope you're well mate ...

I will try to partake in posting more often, but sometimes feel out of my depth, especially with some of the **** spouted on at times

Back to the topic, yeah agree 10 million is on the high side, but they'd never let him go at 5 million... I'd expect a fee of 7/8 plus add-ons up to 10mil..

I would pay 8 for him, worth the money, should he bag 15+ next season for us.. 20+ and he'd be a steal even at 10 ...

All good here on the Gold Coast my friend. We need you to help tip the scales back to the sane side mate

I wouldn't mind the add ons bit like you mentioned & realistic wages hopefully. Just hope we get it sorted quickly so he's got time to gel.

As you were...

@BenSmithBBC
The Dempsey report on FSG's website is inaccurate. Strong interest from LFC but not progressed beyond that.

As you were...

The end of the week it will be done I think.

That's not to say the Dempsey to LFC news won't eventually come to pass, but just not today.

I'm hoping he's not the last attacking player we'll see included to our squad I'm still hoping for an edge of your seat player.

Liverpool are closing in on the signing of Clint Dempsey after agreeing a £10m fee with Fulham for the attacker, according to the Daily Mail.

The report claims that new Reds boss Brendan Rodgers is keen on strengthening his attacking options this summer and after missing out on former Swansea loanee Gylfi Sigurdsson to Tottenham, he’s made his move for Dempsey.

Liverpool have been linked with the American forward for several months now but the Mail claim they have finally agreed a £10m fee with the Cottagers. The 29-year-old is now due to travel to Merseyside to undergo a medical with the transfer is expected to be completed in the next few days.

With Andy Carroll seemingly heading out of Anfield this summer, with former club Newcastle interested in signing him on loan, Rodgers has been looking to add another forward to his squad and he seems to have found his man in Dempsey.

The former New England Revolution star, who can play as a striker or attacking midfielder, scored an impressive 17 goals in 37 Premier League games last season for Fulham and if the Daily Mail are accurate, this form looks to have earned him a big-money move to Anfield.

I hope that's inc bonuses ? £7m up front I hope & the rest if he scores 20 goals in each of the next 2 seasons & we win the league within 2 seasons also.

Sounds legit
