David Silva (28 Viewers)

Pool are also concentrating on selling the team. Well, at least Gillett's half. He was at a Montreal Canadiens(hockey) game last week with some guy who represents a rich dude from the middle east. On the other side, he could also sell the Canadiens to put more $$$ into Liverpool. Until they figure this out I don't think they can go for a big name signing atm.
Agger? You have to be joking. He's a classic pool transfer. Noone heard of him before he came and then he turned out to be better than his reputation would suggest. This is the essence of their transfer policy. It's kind of like Arsenal but less impressive because they're not all young.
Mascherano was definitely a high flyer, but then you have to consider his trajectory. He wasn't signed out of Argentina, he was rotting at West Ham when pool gave him a lifeline. And Xavi Alonso.. certainly not a star like Torres, but a good player. So I'll give you 50% on that one.

I love Zenden 
The excuse of not playing Gio on the wing is because of the guy in your tar and maybe a bit of his lack defensive talent but he's slowly giving him his chance. The 4-2-3-1 wouldn't be a problem either. I think he can go for it. He did say he could change formation because there's only one Nedved and his replacement could be used in different role we've seen regularly this season.
Juventus will dominate the world when this rule comes out. :jvefan: ps will conquer europe next year. 
To think Inter doesn't have any Italians on the pitch at times
haha valencia want 30 million pounds for him. good luck juve. 
Rafa Benitez tells of failed David Silva bid
By Tony Barrett
RAFA Benitez today confirmed that Liverpool DID make an inquiry for David Silva only for their interest to cool after learning of Valencia's asking price.
As revealed in Thursday's ECHO, the Reds boss had earmarked Silva as one of his top summer transfer targets and was willing to make an offer for the Spanish international if Valencia's valuation was realistic.
But Benitez today announced that he will not be following up his initial interest in the 23-year-old.
Confirming the ECHO's version of events, Benitez said: "It is true that we were asking about the situation with him but we are not happy with the situation now and he will not be a target for us."
Valencia are believed to be seeking as much as £30m for the player and even though Benitez rates the Euro 2008 star highly he would not be willing to pay that much for his services.
The only possible way any such deal will now be resurrected will be if Valencia lower their asking price significantly.
