KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Could Keita be the answer?

Seydou Keita claims no decision has been taken regarding his future at Barcelona, but admits to being flattered by reports linking him with Liverpool.

Keita admits the time may have come for a fresh start to be made, with a new challenge holding considerable appeal.

He considers Liverpool to be one of the few clubs that could match his ambition, but he is keen to point out that no switch to the Premier League has been put in place.

"I am flattered by the interest of Liverpool Football Club, one of the biggest clubs in the world," said the 32-year-old midfielder.

"A challenge somewhere else is attractive to me and Liverpool are a top team with very good players."

Not sure if st 32 he would be a good move. He definitely goes agains the Dalglish young and british philosphy

Sorry too old. This is Barcelona way of cutting adrift deadwood. Would only cost money in wages and stop the development of someone who needs it. We already have two midfielders out on loan that we have to find permanent homes for. I take it this is cover for Lucas?

i would assume it would be. but would be better cover than spearing

I would take him for cheap. can't go wrong with some valuable experience in the team who has won it all. the young players could learn a lot of him and he would provide good cover for lucas

I think he's a good player, and he'd come cheap. And he has loads of experience and is a good model pro. The only thing is, if he's leaving Barca to look for first-team football, I'm not sure if he'll find it with us. He'd be great cover for Lucas, but I don't think that's the role that he wants. And he's old, and I'd rather see us blood Shelvey, Coady, etc.

short term for a couple of years then maybe, but your right we need to blood our youngsters

We got a couple of great years out of Gary McAllister when he was getting up in years.

He could be worth a punt, he's a very talented player.

Those quotes are old, very old in fact from last summer when we were interested. Its a nothing story.
