So do we have a understanding with AC Milan.
Last year we loaned them Aquilani for the whole of this season and now the media talk from AC Milan side ie Son of owner and ex players Mark Hateley is that they would like to sign Andy Carroll

Again BR said he had heard nothing from AC in the press conference however he did directly name check a AC Milan player Pato!!!


Is this far too far fetched to even hope that we could be getting Pato in exchange for either Aquilani or Carroll?

In fact Pato even name checked Liverpool in a interview earlier in the year stating his friends Lucas and Doni play for us.

Only downside Pato was injured for most of last season.

BR did also mention in his press conference that we will be signing a player whom we will love and said player will excite.

In all respects to Borini and Dempsey you cannot use those terms in respect of Borini or Dempsey although both are excellent players who will improve us

as if this story wast far fetched enough lol

i could be proved wrong but i don't see carroll leaving just yet myself. all paper talk. like rodgers said the media know very little about whats going on so it makes a good story to make the week go quicker.

throwing pato into the mix aswell tho, now i think you'd get some serious odds if you put a bet on that.

honestly don't think we'd be willing to pay his wages

Pato is on approx 60k per week at AC Milan, I'm sure a large number of Liverpool players are on greater than 60K per week, so the salary would not be that large in the scheme of things, if it was a swap deal.


The only concern I would have is with Pato's injury problems, however if you told me at the start of the summer we would sign Borini, Dempsey and Pato I would be a very happy bunny.

I think Andy Carroll to AC Milan and Alexandre Pato to LFC are two of the least likely transfers imaginable.

The fact that BR mentioned Pato makes it almost certain that we're NOT in for him. I can't believe people are taking that as some kind of secret hint. If anything was going on with Pato there is no way the manager would idly name-check him in a press conference!

Andy to AC milan looks to me like the purest definition of paper talk. If that happens I will post a video of me eating a hat.

also, players will expect a wage increase when they sign for a new club. its usually the way it works. especially when PSG were prepared to pay £30m for pato last season. you're talking doubling his wages. he's been plagued with injury of late. a big concern for me is how many players from the italian leagues have actually made it in the prem?

i laughed reading this topic, if we having problem getting players like de jong and other upcoming star how is it possible, remember a deal as failed to go through with psg who is spending mad money right now, being linked with bigger names than who we currently have so how and why would he come. dont get me wrong if a pinch of this is true id be happy but somethings are just too fr fetch.

Be careful what you wish for. This guy plays 5 games and then breaks down for the remainder of the season, no fking thanks. Carroll will stay, I do not for a minute believe these stupid rumours.
