Fifa re-open case ! Mascherano to Liverpool deal back on...

[Finnish_Red]

I'm totally ambivalent to be honest. I just can't see him proving himself in an area where we are well covered.

It isn't that long ago when everyone was moaning about Bolo and how abysmal he was in the middle. Bring the lad on board I say.

“Of all the youngsters to have come through in recent years, the one who impresses me most is Javier Mascherano. He is a monster of a player and destined for great things.” - the words of Maradona

[Diego]

he also said a couple a years a go that if madrid were to sort out their midfield they'd need a monster on the pitch like Mascherano...

Think it might be, there was someone on koptalk that I had heated debate about Argentinians and he hated them cause he fought in the Falklands.

I most certainly do detest argies, but I never claimed to have fought them in 82.

[Neil Young]

So, hating Argentinians - it's a Bob thing?

[Maestro]

It will probably be a three or four year deal after the loan deal. I can imagine that MSI will own him again after he has been with us and that they will get any money if we sell him to another club and that's why he available on the cheap and that's why Juve pulled out of any deal.

Sorry - that makes no sense. Any chance of clarifying what exactly you mean to say? Cheers.

What I mean is that we will pay his wages as long as he plays for us. I would call it a loan deal from the MSI for maybe three or four years after his six month loan.

We pay them £6m for around four years but we can't get any money if we sell him. MSI would get that money.

It's just a guess.

[Reece]

It's just a guess.

For a change

[Rich]

I actually think AFII is probably very close to the mark on that one!

jam you laughing smilie up your ass ya clown. Whats that got to do with anything? Watching a game on TV and live is hardly different. If you know what to look for when watching a player you will see how they are in either format. cock

Your making an assumption on a player you have never seen play. And judging by your comments on Veron, youve never seen him play either.

lets just face the facts here.

you have no idea what your on about...you just hate Argies

you haven't come up with any reasoning WHY he wont in your opinion make it, its just "he wont adapt" WHY?? he is nothing like Veron.

Your name calling really does you credit, it certainly blows away any argument


If you think that watching a game on TV and watching a game live is hardly any different then you obviously know **** all.

Ok...this is where our wires are being crossed - basically you're saying that £6m would be our outlay in wages, whereas the £6m I thought everyone else was talking about was the transfer fee we would have to pay at the end of any loan period, if we wanted to make a permanent deal.

I also think £1.5m a year in wages is less than we would/will pay Mascherano. I think you can reckon with £2m a year rather than £1.5m ... and I think we would be looking at paying a £20m transfer fee to buy him outright from MSI at the end of any loan period.

But both methods have their advantages. The difference being that you can go back and watch a video/motd to gain the t.v. insight after the game, you can't do the same if you see the match live on TV.

No, the £6m would be the fee we pay to MSI for the x years we loan him from them.



It must be a reason to why no other big club want him for just £6m.

Won't you at least accept the possibility that there might be other reasons?

[Neil Young]

Maybe. Or maybe he wants to come to Liverpool. The reason Juventus gave for dropping out may be true or may it simply be a way of saving face after being told Macherano prefers LFC. Who's to say? It's all just speculation.
