Didn't really think he did much in the World Cup. The time for getting Belgian players on the cheap is over, they are all overvalued now.

Telegraph this morning says we're still interested.

Seems more like a "If your deal with LFC goes down the shitter let us know" type of situation.

We may be interested but i don't think we are willing to get into a bidding war over him...

According to Tony Barrett of The Times he has already agreed to join Liverpool and will be at Melwood later this week but his recent comments don't sound like someone who is definitely already a LFC player.

We've completed a deal with Lille though for nearly £10m ut Lille have said they won't sell to anyone who won't allow him to stay at the club on loan this season.

He's currently at Melwood. No-one knows for certain why.

You believe indykaila? LOL.

No. It doesn't come from him. It comes from our 2 best ITKs on twitter and people outside the training ground have seen him and a few people who live over Melwood have seen somebody who fits his description having lots of pics on the training pitch.

Indy's seen this and presenting it as his "info".

Forget Spurs interest in Origi, I'm lead to believe the deal for him & #LFC is 99% on. Possible double announcement with Markovic.

Callum @Calzuh 1h
I live behind Melwood and theres people taking pictures of a black fella in the training pitch, Loic Remy? @Karlton81

Strong rumours that #LFC target Divock Origi is currently at Melwood.

Jay Riley@Jay_78_ 15m
Its expected that #LFC will announce both deals for Divock Origi & Lazar Markovic by the weekend.

We'll see but Jay above is very rarely wrong. He said we'd ended our interest in Shaqiri whilst everyone else, including Di Marzio, was saying we were trying to sign him and he was spot on, but you never know. If Di Marzio can get it wrong sometimes I'm sure Jay can too.

He might only be at Melwood for a tour and a chat etc before speaking to other clubs too?

He's probably not yet announced he signed for Spurs so he could tour your facilities for free. Otherwise he'd have to pay the 3.50 entry. The cheap bastard.

On a serious note, I'm glad we've missed out on him. I'm sure he'll develop into a great player but I didn't really see much that made me want him more than Kane, and Kane has the advantages of already being on the squad, having experience with us, and being homegrown.

Maybe your're resigning Emile Heskey.

Looks an okay prospect. Nothing special.

The scouse are treading dangerous grounds IMO. They can easily go the way we did last summer. There signings are not exactly scary.

Zero point us spunking £10 million on him if Lille will only deal if he goes back there on loan.

We haven't got that kind of cash lying around.

Seems a bit of a stupid deal to do by Liverpool as well really.

Lawrence Vigoroux & Kevin Stewart on a free from us
Lallana @ 25 M
Lovren highly likely @ 20 M
Origi @ 10 M
Can @ 10 M
Lambert @ 5M

And, according to reports out of the Liverpool camp, this doesn't include the money they will get from the Suarez sale if it goes through. They'll most likely buy more players if that sale goes through. That is 7 new players already. I think they're going on a spending spree at the moment for the same reason we did last summer - trying to replace one superstar with a good amount of team players to strengthen across the board. But all those new players will take a while to mesh and will cause some issues. Rodgers has a herculean task ahead of him. We've learned it the hard way and the fact that it seems they haven't learned from our mistakes could be to our benefit.

FYI, in regards to Origi's quotes about mulling over several offers and him not making a decision yet, JJ was asked if we could be one of the offers and he responded with "yes we could however still slim"

Arsenal's signing of Sanchez trumps all of Liverpools signings put together so far IMO.

Love how those on Merseyside get all in a tizz when they see a "black fella"... North/south divide, I guess. Lol!
