KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Sell Wining Masc [oops], buy 1 striker and 1 LB

you made some interesting points there flames especially about the papers. apparently the stories came from quotations taken from mascherano's agent. if these claims about "learning italian, reuniting with rafa, inter milan is my dream blah blah blah" are true then would you expect his agent to come out and deny them like torres' agent did a few weeks ago?

or because of his uncertain future at the club do you think his agent might be trying to construct an interest for the player in a bid to strike a big money deal elsewhere just incase the player isn't satisfied with whats going on behind the scenes at lfc?

when you look at what your saying does make sense and its probably a case of javier not even knowing himself where he will be playing his football this season. in a way the fone call thing with roy got blown a bit out of proportion, roy was trying to be respectful to masch. i know for a fact if i was on a beach in greece or somewhere with me missus and me new boss give left me a few voicemails 1 my fone would be the last thing id be lookin at and 2 they could be easily forgotten about. but saying that im not on £100,000 a week

i wont believe it till i hear it from the monsters mouth.

can we not just sit back and relax and just wait until the squad sorts itself out come september? we're going to feel stupid if he comes out, says he's staying and that the papers were talking [oops], and plays a stormer next season.

the agents and media are playing a game, thats all. its a papers job to sell papers, its an agents job to generate options for their players whether he wants to stay or not. we need to stop reading into it.

Ive been saying that throught the Gerrard debacle , Torres storm and now mash scenario. People will never listen flames , there too impatient

drama queens troy.

erm flamey i think you were misreading me - i was referring to your talk about him waiting to commit because he wants to see what direction the club is going in - it is not his job to worry about that, just to play to the best of his ability - a job he failed miserably in last season with his pathetic performances

i would definitely want to know what direction the club is going in as a player. i even want to know as a supporter because im not taking time out to watch us play if we are going to be acting the [oops] like last year. torres is doing exactly the same thing. as did gerrard. as are most players, except lucas who couldnt get a job in mcdonalds if liverpool let him go.

I think it may be significant that Purslow seems to have been spending a lot of time talking to Torres, presumably to reassure him about the clubs plans for the future etc, when there does not seem to have been the same effort put into talking to Mascherano.

He has been unsettled for a while, and wants a move out by all accounts, so let's get shut of him and use the cash to buy in a decent team player.

maybe now that he is back in melwood purslow will be meeting with him. its part of a process, the lad had a break, and now he is meeting the new manager, and then talking with the club about his future. i dont understand why people are so worked up.

well, the things he has said about his wife (more than once) and him learning italian saying he would love to follow rafa to inter, that is enough proof for me that he wants to leave.

and im not sad about it tbh, im happy because it would be nice to have someone in that position who can pass the ball more than five yards...

then you have missed what he has been saying every now and then for more than a year...
