KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Rasmus Elm 8mil deal or no deal?

Papers are saying we've bided or agreed a 8 mil deal for Rasmus Elm.

He's a tidy player and it seems he's the player we've gone for to replace Gerrard in the long term which is a bit disappointing looking at the names we were after (countiho, Lucas, Eriksen, etc) but he's a top player so still it's good news if it's true.

Btw don't think we're the club who have bid 16mil for Ramieres cause were still scouting him and when you consider Dalglish personally scouted The Montpelier and AZ Alkmaar matches it seems we have other priority signing ahead of him.

But finally regardless of if he plays well or not or even signs it looks like were after young players with quality and whom are reasonable prices

Apparently a fee has been agreed with his cub but personal terms have not been agreed yet. I suspect it will be some time before he completes his transfer if he decides to come to LFC as there are other parties who are also interested, including united and spurs.

Rumours have it Kenny watched Olivier Giroud in France as a possible sriking option. If so, it would definately suggest that the club has more than the 20-30 million being touted, available to spend this transfer window.

read that personal terms of 40k a week have already been agreed.

this fella is a centre midfield player is he?

The next time one of you ITT are passing. Anfield or melwood ye wouldn't mind dropping in to the king for a quick coffee and let him know weve plenty of midfielders and a finisher wouldn't go amiss. I think he forgot....

Plenty of midfielders in 'quantity' but not quality. I'm all for the club spending a bit of money in order to push henderson and spearing down the pecking order/out the door.

Seems that they signed him.(Or are about to) Not to in favour of scaninavian players sorry kopswede, BUT he looks confident (but then didnt henderson) I totally agree with careex , anything to keep those other spanners out of the first team.

Most of those freekicks he wouldnt have scored them in the premiership they were in thanks to lame defending. However seems a quick thinker which henderson isnt, and adam certainly isnt although adam is a good passer just has other issues. I m in favour . Lets hope they saving the money to splash on a striker???

Agreed on his quick thinking. I browsed a few youtube clips which 'can' give 'some' kind of indication as to what we're getting. Most of his goals resulted in quick actions and decision making. It doesn't look like he needs a lot of time on the ball in order to make something happen. His signing will mean less games for henderson and adam - who else can we bring on board to reduce their game time even further?

Its a big no for me. I live in Sweden and I can tell you Elm dont have the qualities at all to take Liverpool to the next dimension of play and I really hope this is not true even tho I want a swede in Liverpool.

surely he can't be worse than henderson!

For that money whats so wrong
