Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
Liverpool and Tottenham transfer target Yevhen Konoplyanka has been dismissed as a “headless chicken” by former Arsenal defender Oleg Luzhny.

He said: “I don’t think the English league is right for him.

“Konoplyanka’s style of play is better suited to Italy or Spain. The game in England is totally different – it’s about power. You have to run back and forth, back and forth. You run at speed up and down, and it’s like that for 90 minutes.

“I saw how he played in the [World Cup qualification playoff] second leg against France, when Ukraine lost 3-0, and he was like a headless chicken.

“It is a completely different level. When you play in the Ukraine, you can afford not to run.

“In the match against France, it was evident that Konoplyanka barely runs at all. Konoplyanka is a good player, but he is suited to Spain or Italy, not England.”

I always think it's a risk signing foreign attackers in January. They always take an age to get used to the PL.

I'm not very impressed with Capoue's ramblings, Steffen Freund will have told Sherwood about all the players and their positions, he's just getting ratty because he isn't playing. If he wants to play then he needs to work hard to change the manager's mind. I don't think he's the kind of player who can do that though. If we sell him he won't be missed.

I just fucking snorted with laughter

Luzhny doesn't get to dismiss shit

He couldn't defend an eclair from a trail of ants. Memorably shit footballer.
 
Frankfurt coach Veh said he'll rest most of his players against Bayern tomorrow because there will be a hard list of fixtures next month and the chances to get some points against Bayern are slim.

lol

Fine this joke of a club

If they don't care about a positive result, why don't they just go crazy with the formations? Have four strikers or something.

Can Capoue even play for another club this season? I thought FIFA had a rule where you can play for three different clubs in a season, I think he's turned out for Toulouse and Spurs already. I'm probably wrong.

"It's cool to win against Dortmund, but not so much against Bayern." Klopp pls.

Various crappy sources suggesting the Konoplyanka deal already completed, the Liverpool echo saying the only thing left is to agree on the structure of the deal i.e. how much is paid upfront. Looks like this one is going to be wrapped up.

"Bayern wants to destroy us"
Says Dortmunds Hans-Joachim Watzke. Summary:
- They buy our players, offer twice the wages. We are not able to keep up with them
- They want to destroy us with this, so that we will never become a threat again
- There is no other league that is dominated by one single club - calls it Scottish conditions
- Will invest again in summer and are ready to raise the wages
