The Atletico Madrid midfielder Maxi Rodriguez now appears to be very close to finalizing a transfer to Liverpool and has been left out of the Spanish club`s squad ahead of Wednesday`s Cup tie against Recreativo. As we reported earlier, the situation has been moving quickly today and the final details on a two and a half year deal at Anfield are close to being agreed.
The 29 year old Argentine midfielder has spoken with both Javier Mascherano and Fernando Torres and is incredibly excited about the move while also being aware that he will1 be competing with Dirk Kuyt for a starting berth on Liverpool`s right flank. However, with a place in Diego Maradona`s World Cup at stake, Maxi is confident that he will be seeing plenty of action for Liverpool.
If a permanent deal is agreed, Rodriguez will cost Rafa Benitez around £1.5 million and players will be leaving Anfield this January (Guillem Balague)
If Rafa can bring Maxi to Anfield for a fee as low as £1.5m then that would truly represent one hell of a bargain. We appear to be getting closer to bringing the Argentine to Liverpool and he could well be the missing part of the midfield jigsaw and a player as vastly experienced as the Atletico Madrid man will hopefully settle quickly into Premier League life. Guillem Balague is normally pretty much spot on with his inside information, especially when in relation to La Liga sides, so it does seem this deal is pretty much complete.
Greek side Olympiakos are reportedly preparing a bid for Liverpool midfielder Yossi Benayoun.
The 29-year-old Israeli captain has found himself on the fringes of the first team at Liverpool, struggling to secure a place in the starting XI under Rafael Benitez.
Benayoun joined the Reds from West Ham in 2007, signing a four-year-deal at Anfield for a £5 million fee. He has since made 82 league appearances, scoring 17 times in the process.
This season, the former Maccabi Haifa star has scored five times in 20 appearances for the Merseyside outfit, including a Premier League hat-trick against Burnley.
A two-year contract extension was penned in April 2009, but now reports in Greek publication ‘Goal’ suggest that Olympiakos have already offered €6M. (Give Me Football – Official PFA Website)
I don’t see Yossi Benayoun leaving Liverpool and even though Rafa still doesn’t appear to see the Israeli as a first choice starter and only calls upon his services when injury or poor form dictates the 29 year old midfielder clearly loves playing for the club.
Whether he is playing out wide or in an advanced central role Yossi always looks like he can make things happen and a player like that is worth his weight in gold and I am not surprised that clubs are looking to pounce but if the Liverpool man turned down the likes of Spartak Moscow and apparently showed no interest in moving to Manchester City I see no reason why he would be tempted by a move to Greece.

maxi will be a great buy more of a natural wide player, than kuyt! we cannot sell yossi he is a great little player, i actually like babel 2 but like isaac said if rafa is not going to play him then sell him for 10million and get in levazzi to partner torres upfront!
reina
johnson carra agger insua
mascherano

torres levazzi
thats a team that would be challenging. with obviously a few good players on the bench:- skrtel/kuyt/reira/aureilo ect

Hope to see Maxi in the team very soon. He’s a very good player.
Yossi I think we need him as a backup. He’s quite creative when on the field.
We need creative player.

I really rate Maxi as a good player. I have watched him in Athletico Madrid for the past season and he is a very tallented midfielder. Dont sell Yossi thought, get rid of Kuyt, has not had his good year. I for one am happy to see Maxi come in, and Dossena leaving. I mean if dossena leaves for 4.5 million and Maxi comes in for 1.5, this is brilliant work. Top signing if it happens

JOHN LFC - January 6th, 2010 at 1:26 pm
We seem to sign players just thinking of the short term. No youth yet. I don’t believe that Rafa has no money to spend. I think if you show you have alot of money or a reasonable amount than a club will charge you more for their players, the perfect example: Manchester City. They end up paying 1/3 of the price more for a player. But i don’t think we will spend over £16m for one player in this window. But it is apparent we need to buy.
I don’t expect Babel to leave or Benayoun. Babel: because Rafa will give him more chances. Plus, he can take a risk (of playing him) in the Europa League as we play against lesser teams. Futhermore, the only offers for him are Birmingham; maybe not a big step down in league ranking, but a big step down in club stature. Benayoun has hit form and is playing as well as he ever has for Liverpool. He is also very creative which Liverpool seem to lack for large parts of the season. Rodriguez is good and will give us more pace but it will be interesting to see how he copes with the much more phisically intence English game.
I would like to see:
Arda Turan:- He is a good prospect and gives us pace, creativity and youth. Somithing I feel Kuyt lacks. He has also admitted he would like to play for Liverpool, there are not other subtle ways to say, “Come and get me!”
Another striker:- We need cover for Torres N’Gog has done well but we need experience. I wouldn’t necessarily sign Van Nistelrooy or Heskey.
Victor Mosses:-He looks like a good prospect, and offers:pace, creativity and youth. Plus, he is English.
Marouane Chamakh:-Liverpool are in Pre-contract negotiations with him. Arsenal are interested in him and have been for a long time so, Liverpool should secure the deal quickly.
If you watch the press conference Rafa did this mourning he said he wasn’t trying for Van Nistelrooy or Heskey, however, when asked about Van Der Vaart he simply said he doesn’t want to talk about players.

Maxi obviously has talent and if we get him for such a low fee, it definitely is a bargain, even if he is 29! We just need some confidence and our defenders need a kick up the arse and we should be ok, it still is a disgrace that we’re a laughing stock in the transfer market.
loading...
Warren Bloggs - January 6th, 2010 at 1:29 pm
Maxi Rodriguez and Marouane Chamakh would be very good signings indeed! However, Rafa may well be tempted to sell Albert Riera when Olympiakos come calling if we can get as much as £8-10m for him then Rafa should sign Arda Turan……

JOHN LFC - January 6th, 2010 at 1:30 pm
I would sell Kuyt but not because he is having a bad season. He does not give the team anything but a few luck goals. He is slow and lacks creativity, two things a winger must have.

I cant see us signing anyone expensive in this transfer window, as much as id like to see arda turan come in i dont think it will happen maybe in the summer it will, bargain deals seem to be our best option, maxi is the wing sorted now we need a back up striker……. or van der vaart on loan for the left wing and use n’gog as a back up striker

Absolutely genius piece of business. I reckon we should let babel go becuase rafa will carry on playing him on the left and he will carry on ‘trying’ to impress as a striker which he fails to do so ‘o so often. We have cover on the left. Riera, Yossi & Aurelio can play their if need be. Move Kuyt upfront with Torres, he’s good poking second balls in and maybe get a proper right winger like Arda Turan to compete with Maxi with babel money. Stephen Darby is enough as cover for Johnson, only way Youth will come up.

JOHN LFC - January 6th, 2010 at 2:01 pm
£5m for Riera?! He is worth atleast £9m.
loading...
Reds Lewis - January 6th, 2010 at 2:26 pm
7m for yossi is ab asolute joke. Hes worth at least 13m. There is no way Olympiakos can compete against the likes of Man city…if Man city realise hes available then they will cough up whats needed, so they can forget it at 7m.
I really dont want Benayoun to go though, hes a class player.
Getting rid of Dossena and bringing in Maxi rodriguez seems to be a good move by Benitez…
However if he gets rid of Riera i will SCREAM. We currently only have 1 real left winger, and that is Riera. So if we sell him, were just increasing the problem on the left wing, whilst decreasing the problem on the right wing.

Retryboy - January 6th, 2010 at 2:29 pm
Rodriguez-definitely a bargain not sure he is the missing piece of the jigsaw. Turan is the one player out of the hundreds that have been linked with us i think would have a major impact. There have been reports that rafa will only be allowed to bring in 2 loan signings no matter how much he generates in sales. If he isn’t going to get the money back then he is going to want to hang on to anybody that offers him options. It was apparently stressed that the reason was nothing to do with loan repayments but that players are over-priced in january and they want a big summer budget instead. Personally i think the owners are seeing if rafa delivers his top four promise and want to have money available for a new boss if things get worse. None of the top managers will be available till summer anyway.

well well at 1.5 mill . i spose hes worth a punt . but its hardly a signing that gets the heart pounding is it . but for the other half ov this peice ? i hope yossi stays . its just a shame he has to play under a defensive kretin like benitez . when yossi plays . he for me anyway is one ov our most consistent performers . i like the wayhes not scared to run at defenders and also have a pop at goal . a player truly out ov the liverpool mould . if roddy does come i just hope he gives us that extra width and a creative spark down the right flank ! but as retry has said many a time if babbelwould ov been given the chance this signing would ov not have been needed . but thats history . and he looks destind togo to birmingham city . if it happens at least it will be a change to the normalboring starting line up rafa fields . so what have we to lose .

Reds Lewis - January 6th, 2010 at 2:49 pm
I dont beleive all the sources stating that even if we sold players, we wouldnt be allowed to re-invest it. That doesnt make any sense, because it could mean we’d be a few players short for the season – rafa doesnt like to play the youth or reserves, instead he prefers gto play the regular starting 11 in stupid positions.
Therefore I dont think we’d be held back on spending what we’d generated from sales.
IMO our next buy should be Arda Turan…
That way weve got Arda Turan and Maxi Rodrgiuez (out and out wingers, or so I’m led to beleive) for Dossena and Babel. Seems a good bit of dealing there…although Id of preffered degen,Voronin,and Elzhar to have gone instead of Babel….He’l be a world beater at B’ham.
Still, if for example, Arda and Rodriguez were the only signings we made, I still think we should offload Voronin, Degen, and El zhar…or one of the keepers, whilst their Prices are inflated…and save the money for summer ( we could probably get about 11-12 mil combined for them now, if we included a keeper AND el zhar, but in Summer wed be lukcy to get half that).
loading...
RyanO - January 6th, 2010 at 3:00 pm
The deal for Rodriguez seems to be all but complete and it’s a good signing. I hope no one is expecting him to boss games though. The deal for Chamakh would be an absolute coup, I’m still finding it hard to believe that Arsenal are not going to beat us to the player. They are desperate for strikers with VanPersie’s injury record and they seem to have money. There could be a big bidding war or maybe he is a smart lad and wants to play with Torres. That would be a cracking combination. I’ve also read more about Upson coming, but I don’t believe it.
loading...
anonymous - January 6th, 2010 at 3:06 pm
For those that didn’t read the Liverpool Echo/Daily Post correctly, the owners did NOT say he couldn’t spend what he sells, Rafa and his team have decided it would be better to use money from players sold with the transfer kitty he gets in the summer to buy better players, makes more sense then pressure buying now, when most clubs won’t sell there better players as we are mid-way through the season.
Yes Maxi is a great piece of business and chamack is a pre-contract signing (free) .. unless you have silly money to throw around january is usually only a top up time of the season and to grab those good players on a pre-contract/near end of contract (Maxi & Chamack).
Apart from the players we know we need to get off the wage bill this january, I don’t see any point in selling any other players (riera or yossi) unless we have better replacements for them and that may not be achievable until the summer .. unless Rafa can manage some magical swap deala
We have had a rough 1st half of the season but i do believe the players we have are good enough to be in the top 2 each season, so they need to pull there fingers out and get down to some serious hard work or pack up and move on .. this club has always been about graft and passion … I haven’t seen much lately, and we the fans need to get back to singing from the heart and doing it even louder then that night in Istanbul, as our team needs the 12th man again, not more over-paid expensive wannabe’s …
Lets show these players what liverpool passion is all about, as some seem to have forgotten

Reds Lewis, Chamakh has pace and he can finish. He has played well enough, over the course of the past year, to turn heads at Arsenal, United and Liverpool and he is free after the season. Our squad lacks depth and this is the type of player anyone would want to add. If Benitez, Wenger and Ferguson all rate him, then I’ll take him.

Reds lewis hope you are right because we are getting decent offers in for players. Degen is wanted in germany & switzerland now 2-4m being quoted better than we all thought. Will be a total waste if he signs another defender though darby and kelly are quality and we could afford turan if babel is to go as looks likely still think its crazy when we are keeping kuyt as a RM option but turan would soften the blow and it would be better for babel to get away from benitez. Maybe when another manager plays him on the right or up front and he isn’t playing with an axe hanging over him constantly and becomes a star overnight people will see what a shit manager rafa is. Probably not they will just say couldn’t do it at the highest level.

Warren Bloggs - January 6th, 2010 at 4:11 pm
Maxi Rodriguez is an absolute steel and will go along way to improve our right wing this season. I think it is also fair enough to suggest leaving the money until the summer but come on Rafa wake up, you said the same with the Keane fee but you never got it in the end. Our owners will just rob any funds we get beleive me! Maruoane Chamakh is also brilliant! And at a free would be amazing i can only hope Rafa can pull it off……….also if he is not succesful then he would have a high sell on value and we would make a tidy profit..win, win situation. As for this other loan deal who could it be? Obviously the perfect outcome would be Van der Vaart but what are the chances of this happening!

anonymous - January 6th, 2010 at 4:44 pm
rafa should sell bable, dossana, ngog, vorranin and kyut if we are going to buy maxi rodriguez, marouane chamakh and victor moses. but we need some astabished players like torres and gerrard because the lesser teams like fullham and hull are not scared to play us because they no we got 2 or 3 good players what we need is players like van der vaart and van nisterlrooy. rafa you are lucky to still be there so sort it out if i was the owner you would have bin gone a long time ago so sort it out

Chamakh has pace yes, but serioulsy his finishing isnt THAT good. He gets some good goals and has intelligent link up play but Ngog could be just as good as him by the start of next season if we play our cards right.
My Parents have properties in France and I go to France for at least a month every year, and have done since i was about 15.
I’ve watched Chamakh play on the Tv there…and whilst he is good, he isnt this spectacular bargain you all think he is.

Riera + cash for mata. Babel for 10mill+. Voronin to go for watever price, frankly i dont care as long as he goes should be around 4mill. Dossena to go for 5mill. then bring i paylvcenko for 10mill.
Reina
Johnson Carragher Agger Insua
Mascherano
Maxi Mata
Gerrard Aquilani
Torres
Subs: calveiri, skrtel, Lucas, Benayoun, Paylvcenko, kuyt, Aurelio.
Now thats a team that will certainly challenge for a top 4 spot this season, we have natural wingers now with mata and maxi. and now have a good back-up striker for torres. Very good team and not impossible to build which could be in our price range.

Yossi for the last 18 months has been our most creative player, i’d say by FAR. People saying we should sell him are on crack or something, thats just ridiculous. I just wish that Rafa would drop Kuyt to bench and let Yossi play on the right or in the middle. Yossi is nowhere near as good on the left he just goes central everytime anyway, I don’t see how Rafa can’t see this, and the same with Babel. If he had played Babel on the right since he bought him I guarantee that we wouldn’t be having this discussion on Maxi Rodriguez. I like Rafa but some of his deciscion making this year just confuses me. Why are we playing two defensive midfielders against the likes of Portsmouth (lucas, and Masch). Why is Kuyt played every bloody game, when he is playing like he’s not there, he just gets the ball and if his touch is good enough, he plays it back again. I would not mind if masch goes for 30 mill as though he is a class act, I seriously believe two defensive midfielders is what has killed us this season, and like Retryboy said lucas can take over from Masch. I believe we would be in a different situation this season (without any new players) if benitez had played more this kind of line up:
Reina
JohnsonCarraAggerAurelio
Masch
Babel Gerard Reira(If Fit Otherwise Insua, left back Aurelio Left half)
Benayoun
Torrres
The Fact of the matter is we don’t have Alonso anymore, Lucas is NOT alonso, but Gerrard can do alonso’s job every bit as good as alonso could from a deeper position, and Benayoun can play behind Torres every bit as good as Gerrard could, just look how many assists to Torres Benayoun has had, its crazy. but because Rafa isn’t goin to play this kind of line up we might as well buy players to shake the nest up and maybe if Maxi comes Kuyt will go to bench, but I have only ever seen Benitez drop kuyt ONCE when he is fit.

If Maxi settles it could be a bargain. Pavluchenko and a decent right back to give cover will do although Stephen Darby was our best player at Reading.

I would like 2 see rafa selling riera, I know he’s been injured but he’s jst not up 2 the standard atm, get in vdv, maxi and van nisteroy, we can stil win the league, we just have 2 win every game until the end of the season…….. Easy

If we Get Maxi, and cant get anyone else.. i.e another striker – i think rafa should then stick kuyt up front with torres, and leave maxi out on the right flank….. Why bother having kuyt as right wing competition for him, when we all know that Kuyt is a better striker, than he is a winger…..
Our team is getting fucked over royally! Still dont think Rafa know’s what he’s doing!

sell reira! you must be mad he’s the only player who gives us any width to our play.With maxi on right wing and reira on the other we can support the strikers properly.Then again rafa will probably play maxi on the left and kuyt on the right there by making the maxi signing pointless.

offload mascherano to barca rite now….
d red card he got was him saying he doesnt want to play for liverpool any longer….
sadly even dat shithound lucas is playing better than him rite now..
1st option gimme bojan+busquets+gai
2nd option gimme bojan+toure+hleb
cud swap hleb for a cb
but if we get the first option our bench would look great…..
reina
johnson cara agger insua
busquets
gerrard aqua babel
torres
