Yeah we could have an agreement put in place that would allow him to move over in january, think of it as when a player moves on a bosman he can sign pre-contracts but still has to see out the 6 months left on his contract, this would effectively be what we would do only it would be dependant on a transfer fee which we would either pay at the time of transfer (i imagine this is what we would do a set fee e.g 4m with clauses e.g. injury, relegation of current club, promotion/relegation of buying club etc. which would effect the final price) or immediately, if we buy immediately the price would not be dependant on those clauses
I think this whole Sissoko thing is a strategy to draw away attention from Mascherano...at least I hope to God it is because otherwise Juve board have lost their damn minds. How on earth is Buffon, Trezeguet, Camoranesi, and who ever else wants to move to "competitive" football going to be convinced??
Lets pray that Mascherano signs in the next couple of hours...amen.

The Mirror have decided to link Liverpool with West Ham's Argentine misfit Javier Mascherano. Under their silly-season headline "EXCLUSIVE FOOTBALL SPY" the Mirror's Darren Lewis claims Liverpool are "shock contenders" to sign the midfielder for £6million. The 22-year-old's representatives have been talking to Juventus according to the article but now Liverpool have stepped in showing an interest. The writer does remember that FIFA regulations mean he can't play for another club this season, having also appeared for Corinthians, but "Mirror Sport understands his representatives MSI are 'totally unconcerned' by the ruling". According to the Mirror the player's new club would apply for "special dispensation". The article's credibility falls down in the last sentence: "The Kop deal depends on the sale of the club to a Dubai-based consortium". In other words, we've got a great get-out clause if this fails to happen. We can say it's because Liverpool didn't have enough money (if the takeover fails) or blame it on DIC's money making Rafa change his targets. Easy.:flirt:

NO to Sissoko 
YES to Mascherano !!!
YES to Mascherano !!!
Please, no one take this the wrong way. Please.
From what I've seen, all the African players [meaning from Africa, not "black" obviously] have been big, strong guys who use their speed and physicality a lot in their play. Essien and Drogba come to mind, though that might just be Chelsea too. I'm not saying that I wouldn't want Essien for instance, but Sissoko picks up a lot of red cards in the PL - that can't bode well. If we desperately need a def. midfielder and Zanetti/Paro/Marchisio won't do, I guess Sissoko would be decent.
For the meantime...Mascherano yes, Sissoko no.
