According to Guillem Balague on twitter an official announcement is going to be made on the LFC website this afternoon about all the Reina speculation...

sadly a manager should always be backed before player, regardless of our thoughts on the managers ability.

If Pepe leaves then he leaves we have to get best value from him, there are plenty of very good goalkeepers in europe.
NESV are facing a massive problem in that if the best players start to leave the re-building job becomes bigger and will take longer. That said they have effectively moved the money away from Roy by employng Damien. I think we have until end of the season before we face this issue

If it came to choice it would be Reina for sure!

But we dont wont 'very good' we want the best and that is what we currently have. Would be a huge loss, bigger than if we lost Torres.

I agree that a manager should always win out over a player but I have to say I would want to keep Pepe more than Roy.

I just can't see him wanting to leave before he sees what investment is made by NESV. I also don't think he will say he wants to leave in this press conference. Why would he and if he does, maybe a spell in the reserves is needed?

I would say the problem (if there is one) for Pepe has got to be down to Roy/training methods. He signed a 6 yr deal BEFORE the takeover when Hicks and Gillett were still in charge! So he certainly it can't be over the clubs lack of ambition or lack of signings as he wouldn't have signed then, would he? This potential problem has surfaced since Roy arrived. I'm interested to see what any potential official statement might say!

The thing is, if he has a problem with Roy then maybe he should sit down with him and sort it out not go crying to the papers (or let his agent do it). He may well have tried this and got nothing positive from it.

Its all still paper talk though so until he comes out and says he's leaving i'm going to try not to worry too much.

Indeed mates we need to be real careful around these times, the Mancnts are at it again, pratically tapping up Pepe, putting bullshyt on the papers about our class act keeper. Hodgson has to be smart, cuz we all know his big mouth as well as some of the things hes said about Torres. Pepe and Carra i say are the most loyal in the club, do we not remember Reina resigning contract in the middle of the H&G shytstorm, we had just moved to Europa Disney class and Pepe said he would stick the grit and glory.
