No matter who Thiago goes to Barca have dropped a massive clanger if he leaves.
Welp that's the end of that.
Congrats Meier. Have fun in Japan, don't do anything I would'nt do. Like going to a Kylie Minogue gig.
@Xperia bros. How do you change the camera settings so the front facing camera stops taking photos automatically with the face tracker?
@SubtleClouds, Enrique isn't necessarily the problem, the problem is that the only genuinely good backup we have for him is Johnson
Echo says we are locked in negotiations for him.
Luis Alberto was due on Merseyside on Friday as Liverpool seek to wrap up a £6m deal for the Spaniard.
The midfielder was expected to fly in Friday afternoon to undergo a medical and discuss personal terms, after the Reds managed to negotiate an acceptable fee with Sevilla for the 20-year-old prospect.
Liverpool will pay an initial fee of £6m, with another £1m in performance-related add-ons, and hope to conclude a lengthy pursuit by confirming Alberto as their third signing of the summer in the next 24 hours.
A versatile, two-footed attacking midfielder, Alberto caught the eye of Reds scouts during a loan spell with Barcelona last season. He scored 11 goals, assisting a further 17, for the Catalans' B side in Spain's Segunda Division.
He will follow countryman Iago Aspas, whose £7.7m move from Celta Vigo will go through despite a delay in the completion of mandatory paperwork, and Kolo Toure, who will join on a free transfer from Manchester City on July 1, in signing on at Anfield.
Brendan Rodgers remains in the hunt for at least four other players. Liverpool are locked in negotiations with Shakhtar Donetsk over attacking midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and Sporting Lisbon for defender Tiago Ilori.
Mkhitaryan flew to Vienna, Austria on Thursday. Shakhtar are currently at an Alpine training camp, and with no deal in place with Liverpool, the 24-year-old is now expected to join up with his teammates, with his representatives continuing negotiations on his behalf. He is understood to be keen to move to Merseyside, though there are likely to be rivals for his signature.
The Reds remain confident of completing a £9m deal for Sunderland goalkeeper Simon Mignolet and, as revealed in the ECHO on Thursday, are leading the race for FC Porto's Ghanaian winger Christian Atsu.
Their bid to sign Schalke defender Kyriakos Papadopoulos, however, is over. The Reds' interest in the Greek international has cooled after initial negotiations with the German club proved fruitless.
Liverpool rate Papadopoulos, and value him at around £12m, but Schalke's insistence on a deal worth around £20m means the deal is no longer an option, with Rodgers now set to pursue other central defensive targets. Ajax's Toby Alderweireld is a potential option.
This weekend can't come soon enough if Graham is right.
Only got one week of work left then off for my honeymoon too. Don't break my heart a week before such an important life moment, Isco!
god...we are going to be stuck with fucking Cesc.
Sounds like BS to me to be honest.
Blame New Zealand or Australia for underperforming. That Tahiti even won the OFC is truly impressive.
Ooh thought they'd get one there!
Very cool.
Going to an exhibition at the start of July in London where they've got football art like this. Should be good.
Yeah, stuck with a much better player and would be coveted by any club in the world. What a terrible disappointment...god...we are going to be stuck with fucking Cesc.
Amazing Meier, enjoy. I watched Lost in Translation again on Monday and I'm really intrigued by Japan.
Oh, and as much as United fans have to be excited about Thiago, City fans should be doing loops about Isco. He's the daddy.
:lolol I told you Lolerpool fans yesterday but Arnie said I've read some shite. You haven't made contact for Mickey.
Mans available. Today or tomorrow.PS3-Gaf should play FIFA clubs again soon too. I am too bored of playing it on PC where sometimes I am not the best! I can also use my 360 controller now thank fuck!
Sad to see that the Papa interest has cooled. Can see us coming back in for him later on though.
Message me if a spot opens up on TLoU
I think there's 8 of us on...
One space so we can play 4v4 on The Last of Us!

Me and DeGod are about to play borderlands 2 if anyone wants to join in? add me, I am proofplaya on XBL.
Link??Oh god Twitter is exploding with these Thiago updates. Can't believe it if we are going to get him for that cheap.
Can you read?
Honest question.
It says we've made contact, we've bid for the player, but he's not wholly owned by Shakhtar.
Is that slot open? I'll come play if it is.
What's it called, whereabouts in London?
Cheers m8
