Oussama Assaidi [Sold to Al-Ahli's Barmy Army]

[Muddled]

Oh.

[Pablo]

Did many people know about Sami Hyypia when we signed him for 2.6m? He came from the Dutch league. Hmm.

Nope I'd never heard of him, I don't think the scouts even had when they went to watch the game. I remember when he signed some Dutch journalist saying it would be a shrewd signing. I think he got that right

[Suarez]

He looks very frustrating, very little end product, beats a man or two then fails at the final step. What do we expect for that price though?

Reminds me a little of Gonzales. Maybe Brendan thinks he can improve him enough for the premier league, I'm not so sure.

Defo. Well apart from having 19 league goals and 18 assists in his last 52 games anyway!

Our very own Dom9

I'm just going from the video clips above.

[RichC]

I know nothing about this player and I'd never heard of him before - the videos look good but then I'm sure Christian Poulsen could have been made to look like a top player with months of editing

Love the fact he's come out of the blue, nobody had a clue we were after him and being 24 and signed for less than £3M he's essentially a low risk option which if it doesn't work out won't leave us stuck with an over priced over paid player for the next 5 years.

Good work BR and LFC with this one

He had a year left on his contract, hence the lower fee.

[JohnDoe]

Most random transfer. Ever.

[Pablo]

Anyone getting Assaidi on their shirt then?

[RichC]

He could become a cult player for us a la Biscan!

[JohnDoe]

To be honest, I'm not so pleased with this, if only because it pushes Sterling further down the pecking order. If Tello deal is off though, it makes sense.

I reckon hes a player Rodgers has been looking at whilst at Swansea

I'm not dissing him in the slightest but the fact that he is completely off radar, not exceptionally young and is cheap and cheerful makes me think hes a player hes scouted at Swansea

I reckon hes not a first choice as we have probably missed out on that player (Tello?) and we've moved quickly to get this guy on the back of reports hes compiled at his previous club

Thought exactly the same thing. Have we even got a scouting team in place? Defo reckon Rodgers looked at him for Swansea.
