Also David Villa is rumored to be available for 17mill

Please stop talking about Quaresma.. He's overrated..

But if he does join I wish him all the luck, and hope he is successful.. I don't think he will be massive with us, if he does join us (which I can't see happening) I hope he wipes the smile off Ronalda's face..

Agree with that would much prefer mancini, plus he is a much cheaper option than quersma

[MaschPotato]

Dossena is a good player, i've watched him a few times this year, looks like a good player, he was always making quality runs and providing some great long balls for the strikers.

I'd like to see quaresma as a liverpool player, but i dont see Rafa spending the cash for him, i think he'd be extremely pricey.

Snowball in hell chance Ronaldo's overated,

[Brendyne]

That snowball must be living well.
Ronaldo is overrated, not greately, but enough to be considered overrated.

[Brendyne]

I prefer Silva to Quaresma.

[Dan]

Mancini... Only about £5m, less risk, and he scored against the Manc's I think..

[RevolutionMikE5]

Liverpool for Premier Leauge Champions 08-09! Ronaldo might be leaving.

No, I'm not supporting Liverpool I'd just like to see them win it next season.

[Brendyne]

You'll support Liverpool next week though. You bandwagon fan.

I'm just messing with you, don't get upset.

[suggs]

Liverpool stay in hunt for Ramsey

Jun 4 2008 by Nick Smith, Liverpool Daily Post

LIVERPOOL are considering challenging for Aaron Ramsey’s signature after the Cardiff youngster’s move to Manchester United was thrown into doubt last night.

United announced they had snapped up for the 17-year-old winger before Cardiff issued a swift response denying a deal had been done. Arsenal joined the chase after City gave permission for £5million-rated Ramsey to open contract talks with Barclays Premier League clubs.

Liverpool are understood to have made an initial offer that fell short of that valuation, but are now considering a deal involving cash and a season’s loan of two youngsters, wide men Paul Anderson and Adam Hammill.

“We can confirm that on Tuesday, June 3, Cardiff City have received formal bids from three top Premier League teams for Aaron Ramsey and that he has been given permission to speak to two of these teams,” said a Cardiff statement. “One of these teams is Manchester United, as has been reported, although at this stage we can confirm that no deal has been done and the player has not yet agreed terms.

“More details will be made available as they are released to us.”

Ramsey, who has also interested Everton, has been labelled the next Ryan Giggs – something Manchester United were predictably only too keen to rush out when they released an official statement on their website.

It read: “Manchester United is delighted to announce it has agreed terms with Cardiff City for the transfer of Aaron Ramsey, subject to contract terms being agreed and the player passing a medical.

“Ramsey, who has attracted plenty of interest from the best clubs in England, is considered one of his country’s brightest prospects in recent years and follows in an impressive line of left-sided Welsh players, including Gareth Bale and his idol, Ryan Giggs.”

Cardiff manager Dave Jones said: “Whatever happens, the move must be right for Aaron.

“I am sure he will make the right decision.

“When it came to this deal, we have always maintained that, of course, it had to be right for Cardiff City, but it also had to be the right move to continue Aaron’s development.

“He will become one of the best Welsh international players in history, but it is up to the kid now.”

Caerphilly-born Ramsey came to prominence this season and played his part in the Welsh club’s run to last month’s FA Cup final, which they lost to Portsmouth.

He overtook John Toshack as Cardiff’s youngest-ever senior player when he came on aged just 16 years and 123 days against Hull the season before last.

He was called up by national coach Toshack for Wales’ friendlies in Iceland and Holland last week, but is still to win his first senior cap.

Would be nice to see him join... Not only is he a great prospect, but we can get one over the Manc's..

Villa for 17 mill? Get on it.

Do you guys think Villa or Silva would be more valuable to the Reds?

i think Liverpool need them both. They only have Torres as a striker. and they only have Babel for the wing. Pennant ain't that good.

But i've heard Villa and Torres don't do so well together on the Spanish national team?????? i'm not sure how true that is. Haven't really seen them play together.

Andrea Dossena flies in to sign Liverpool FC deal
Jun 4 2008 by Tony Barrett

ANDREA DOSSENA was today undergoing a medical ahead of his expected £7m move to Liverpool.

The Italian left back is due to get married this weekend but such is his desire to sign for the Reds he has taken time out from his wedding preparations to fly to Merseyside to undergo his medical.

A fee in the region of £7m has been agreed with Udinese and terms have also been agreed with the player who was revealed as Rafa Benitez's number one target for the left back position last month.

The deal to sign him was held up by Udinese's initial demands with the Serie A club seeking up to £8m for the 26-year-old but a compromise has now been reached and, barring any last minute hitches, Dossena will become Liverpool's second signing of the summer following the arrival of Swiss right back Philipp Degen.

Dossena's agent Federico Pastorello admitted: "Everything is confirmed and we have already exchanged all the documents via fax. The deal is practically done."

Although Dossena has not made the Italian national squad for the forthcoming European Championships in Austria and Switzerland, he is considered one of the most improved players in Italy over the last 12 months and his impressive displays for Udinese led to him being awarded his first full cap in a friendly against South Africa last season.

His form alerted Benitez, who had made the recruitment of a top class left back one of his priorities for this summer.

With the out of favour John Arne Riise having been told he has no future at Anfield, the Reds boss is hopeful of recouping the majority of his outlay on Dossena by selling the Norwegian defender – with AS Roma and Newcastle leading the chase for his services.

Dossena only recently signed a new four and a half year deal with Udinese but that has not stopped Liverpool from coming to an agreement with his club and Benitez will be delighted that another piece of his summer rebuilding programme now looks set to fall into place.

Meanwhile, Fernando Torres is confident of being fit for Spain's start to Euro 2008 despite struggling with an ankle injury.

The 33-goal Reds marksman is hopeful of featuring in tonight's warm-up clash with the USA despite reports suggesting he could miss Spain's opening fixture against Russia on June 10.

Torres was replaced at half-time during last Saturday's 2-1 friendly win over Peru in Huelva after complaining of an ankle problem.
"My ankle is fine. It was touch and go the other day, but it's gradually improving," he revealed.

"We'll see, but at the moment I think that I'll have no problems for the USA match. The coach decides, but the important thing is that we prepare for the Euros as well as possible."

Dossena for 7m? Good.
I don't see how a left winger and a striker would clash so much on a team.
Players only on't work well on national tyeams because its a system that they have to quickly adapt to.
