Henrikh Mkhitaryan

[Norbs]

Potentialy great players want to play with other great players, who do Liverpool have in the playing squad that offers this?

You're kidding right?

[el matador]

Both clubs match buy out fee, both clubs agree to agent's official fee, only Dortmund are interested in agent's "expenses" fee.

Somebody has to pay this

is this true kev ?

If HM turns us down its to play in the CL, no other reason.

I laugh at Arn who questions the credentials of Rogers. Can he improve players? He's done it all his career and is the reason he was part of Mourinhos back room team.

You only have to see the improvement of Luis Suarez from erratic striker to one of the best 5 players in the world in the space of one season.

With regards playing staff, who at the two clubs has competed at the highest level for the longest period of time in the position he plays? Why that would be Steven Gerrard of LFC my friends.

Who at Dortmund can he learn off? In one way they're worse if than us in that their two key players if last season want to jump ship, ones already gone.

[Mostar]

the thing is that sadly Dortmund are a much more attractive proposition at this moment.

They have been for while now.

Their scouting has been superb over last 4,5 years and they have been very efficient with re-investment of funds from the players they did decide to sell.

We are still paying the price of H&G effect and our inability to properly invest the money we made from the big sales going back to Alonso days..

I agree that Dortmund is a much attractive proposition at present but I still think we can convince talented players to sign for us.

As impressive as Dortmund’s achievements are it does not take much for them to slip down the slope. Disagreement between Klopp and the board, Klopp being hired by Bayern, wrong transfer decisions. Look at Valencia, Deportivo at 2002 and Sevilla on a smaller scale. It is difficult to continuously sell players and reinvest the money properly again and again and again. I do agree that Dortmund is on a stronger footing than Valencia and Sevilla in terms of structure and finances but couple of wrong decisions can tilt the balance.

Even if we come 7th or 8th every year we offer a worldwide exposure which very few clubs can match. For Dortmund to reach our level of mystique and aura, they need Klopp to be their Shankly, discover their Paisley and in an increasingly competitive setting ensure that most decisions they take is spot on for the next two decades. Not an easy task.

As a football lover who likes the romanticism associated with their rise, I hope they do it. But I wouldn’t bet on it.

I know something similar was posted few days ago by James Pearce but I find it hard to believe that the agent, who's job is to find the best possible terms for his client, would not even listen to our or other clubs offers and only consider BVB.

By the same token, it is hard to understand that the player himself would do the same without find it out what we were going to offer.

No issues if he considered our proposal and declined but the way it was explained, for me, things just don't add up.

I have explained how Raiola works. Maybe some of you is starting to believe me but you simply can't admit that I may had right all the time about Raiola.

Not directed at you Mostar but it is laughable that some of you will never admit that I don't talk bull**** all the time.

A guess. You are 100% wrong.

But he is still the agent of Henrikh Mkhitayan.
