I'm more worried he's going to be a bit of a letdown.

I missed it so can't help, sorry. However, it is an hour since you asked so presumably SSN have shown it twice since then. I hope you caught it on one of those repeatsOriginally posted by Parr_Zee View Post

There have been quite a few tweets suggesting we are close to signing Eriksen for 15m (not sure if it is £ or €).Originally posted by marcus50bucks View PostNot at £22m if that's the figure Shakhtar want. I can see us going back for Eriksen who would be £10m cheaper and 3 years younger. For the record I think Eriksen is overrated, goes missing and is not dominating games like he should be regardless of him being only 21.
They have suggested it is in addition to Mkhitaryan.Comment

Originates from caught offside though.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers hopes to buy Shakhtar Donetsk's Henrikh Mkhitaryan for £20 million
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers is poised for talks with Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan this week as he attempts to seal a £20 million deal.

As first revealed by Telegraph Sport, Rodgers has identified Mkhitaryan as his flagship signing for the summer and has tabled a bid which is believed to have triggered a release clause inserted into the 24-year-old’s contract by the Ukrainian champions.
Liverpool are now waiting for the go-ahead to meet the Armenia international, one of the most highly regarded playmakers in Europe, and are hopeful of completing a transfer that will represent a huge statement of intent.
Ian Ayre, the club’s managing director, cancelled a trip to attend an economics conference in Brazil to remain in England to assist in the deal and Liverpool will step up their bid to sign him in the next 48 hours.
Liverpool are understood to be aware of potential competition from a German club, possibly Borussia Dortmund, and know an impressive sales pitch is required to convince Mkhitaryan to move to Anfield.
Rodgers has already signed Celta Vigo striker Iago Aspas and Kolo Touré from Manchester City, but Mkhi*taryan’s signing will be seen as a real coup if they can finalise the deal.
Mkhitaryan scored 25 goals for Shakhtar last season and produced an excellent performance in his country’s defeat of Denmark in their World Cup qualifier six days ago.
Liverpool are confident of finally completing the capture of Sunderland goalkeeper Simon Mignolet this week, with a restructured bid likely to be made on Monday. Sunderland value Mignolet at £10 million and while Liverpool’s second bid of £8 million was rejected. A compromise figure is expected to be reached.
Mignolet’s arrival will only increase uncertainty over the future of Pepe Reina and send out a message that the Spain international is no longer Liverpool’s first-choice goalkeeper. Reina has attracted interest from Barcelona this summer and his departure would represent a signicant saving on the club’s wage bill, with the 30-year-old earning a hefty £120,000 a week.
Luis Suárez’s future at Anfield continues to remain in doubt after the Uruguay international reiterated his desire to leave. He was quoted as saying in Spanish newspaper Marca: “First I have a contract with the club, but if one day I want to sign [for another club]. Liverpool will hear the offer, as it does with other players.
“They must agree with other teams, but the word of the player, in this case mine, is important. If you need a change, you should listen to the player.
“Every player aspires [to be the best] and if you ask a child of eight years they would say one day they would go to Real Madrid or Barcelona.”Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’Comment
