Javier Mascherano has reportedly told Liverpool he wants to leave the club following a meeting with new manager Roy Hodgson.
The Argentina midfielder returned for pre-season training on Monday after being given an extended break following his involvement at the World Cup finals.
Hodgson had previously admitted that he had been unable to contact the 26-year-old whilst on holiday, casting heavy doubts over whether he would stay at Anfield this season.
The Reds boss met with Mascherano and the player’s agent Walter Tamer to discuss his future and widespread reports claim the tough-tackling anchor man has expressed a wish to leave.
Inter Milan, now coached by former Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez, have been heavily linked with a £25million bid for Mascherano before the transfer window closes.
His representative Tamer has previously suggested a move to the European champions would be a ‘dream’ for Mascherano.
Any departure for Mascherano would leave Hodgson in need of a replacement and reports have claimed Sulley Muntari could be included in part exchange.
West Ham United’s influential midfielder Scott Parker has also been mooted as a potential target for Hodgson, who is keen to bolster his squad.
Mascherano joined Liverpool from the Hammers in January 2007 after just six months at Upton Park and he has made almost 140 appearances during his time on Merseyside. (Sky Sports)
Of these two scenarios I am pretty sure which one would be more amenable to Liverpool fans and it wouldn’t include Scott Parker, mainly because West Ham want £15m for the 29 year old, a wildly inflated valuation for a player who may well have had a decent season last term but is still not worth such a steep fee.
Javier Mascherano seems certain to leave as Roy Hodgson realises that there is little value in keeping an unhappy player at the club. Sulley Muntari is a good midfielder who has been very effective in Premier League football and offers the abilities of two types of midfielder in one. The Ghanaian is great at pushing forward and joining the attack and has the ability to track back and put in a good solid tackle.
Rafa Benitez wants to bring his former Argentine international to the San Siro but will have to make a worthwhile offer to convince the Anfield side of selling. The way Javier has treated the club in recent weeks is of course deplorable and not really the best way to reward the team that saved him from his stint at West Ham.
Liverpool fans, which would you prefer. Muntari and some cash or a bid for determined, if one dimensional, Scott Parker?

We might become a Liverpool team without Torres but we’ll be a team again and thats what wins trophies

Flamini of Milan would be my choice would probably cost less than the over inflated fee of Parker and is younger and better, Arsenal should never have sold him. Would’nt sell Mascherano for anything less than £25 million and hopefully Inter and Barca start a bidding war. Wonder if City start sniffing around offering him astronomical wages whether the story about his wife being unhappy in England changes to she was not happy in Liverpool! Watch this space!

I think it’s high time clubs start investing in local players than foreign mecenaries. We are all aware how Xabi Alonso treated us last season and now it’s the urgly Mascherano. My advice to roy is to quickly get lid of him so we have ample time to replace him. I have already said for an cunted times that Liverpool will always remain no matter who leaves or who comes in. Get read of the mecenary Roy.

I’ll take 25M for Mascerano any day. He’s way over rated. A lot of people are touting Banega. Don’t know much about him other than he’s very talented but he lacks experience in English football. Muntari would be a nice deal sweetener as it would buy us some time to find the ideal replacement.
Silva, Flamini and Tiago are other good possible options in my opinon. Just don’t go Poulsen from Juventus unless he’s on a free.

If we get somebody like Banega, that would be great but we’d need someone on the cheap who would give him the time he needs to settle in.

Its official we are better without Mascherano…sky sports have shown the Opta results and yes he makes plenty of tackles but we win more games without him. and Lucas is only 40 tackles behind him ? He wants to join Benitez who plays him at right back, this time last year he was begging to go to Barca ? he is full of it ! only Benitez could value him at £25 million. Scott Parker could patrol our midfield just as well ,the only problem would be the price ??

Reds Lewis - July 27th, 2010 at 5:06 pm
Great stuff really – Mascherano is great at playing the holding CM role, but unfortunately he cant pass or shoot and he gives away far too many free kicks.
Play a 4-4-1-1 or 4-4-2 with plenty of attacking talent and we’ll get somewhere.
Just going off players sales alone …
Masch – 30m inter
Riera – 3m Olympiakos
Insua – 4m Fiorentina
Degen – 1m wherever will have him.
Gives us 38m to play with
in – Aguero – 30m (if we are going to play 4-4-2)
or
in – A. Young – 20M, A Turan – 15M if we are going to play 4-4-1-1

Gareth Barry anyone? Poor World Cup, granted, but still one of the most consistent midfield performers in the Premier League over the last few yeras. With the new signings at City and the potential signing of Milner surely Barry won’t be 1st choice? 10 million or so should do the trick. Plus, another English player for the books and a friends of Stevie G.

Bring in Jeremy Toulalan for Masch, he’s got much more experience than Banega. He has proved himself, whereas Banega was loaned out because he was struggling (2 seasons ago) bearing in mind Banega did have a decent season this previous one, he is still young. I don’t know if we can afford to be doing on-the-job training with our main anchor midfielder/ waiting for him to settle in… Don’t know if Toulalan would be interested in leaving France though.. Babel should be given a chance, he has raw talent which just wasn’t nurtured under Benitez (I dont think Benitez is that type of coach). In a way it contradicts my comment about Banega, but Babel does have PL experience.

Hodgson didn’t confirm Torres is staying, he said “as far as he knows” three times, which seems a little uninformed bearing in mind he’s the manager. To me his comments were intended to avoid answering whether he’s leaving or not, based on very few clubs being actually able to buy him.
To me his comments read, he’s back in training on Monday but I don’t have a clue whether he stays or not.

Retryboy - July 27th, 2010 at 6:15 pm
Muntari is an attacking midfielder so not even worth mentioning when we have Gerrard and Aquilani. Parker would be a good buy and would go for around 10m but Flamini could be got for the same and is about 5 years younger…the best option but would be happy with parker for anything under 10m.

I have watched Masch in argentina games from qualifiers to the world cup and he was not even good at defending.

In all honesty he didnt do too badly for us but thats only because he always had a partner in DM and we are no longer looking to play 2 holding midfielders

Reds Lewis - July 27th, 2010 at 7:08 pm
Letting Mascherano go isnt a big issue.
Letting Torres go however, would be.
If Mascherano goes we DONT need to re invest on a defensive midfielder – we have lucas for that. IMO Lucas can actually shoot better than Masch and would probably be better in a more forward position but for some reason it never seems to happen.
Our main deficiency is the wings and ST role, and LB.
If Masch goes to Inter for anything less than 35M then Benitez is a hypocrit – he valued him at 50M remember?
If I was Roy I’d say look, you either give us 25M plus Santon (so we get 25M plus a decent LB – better than Insua and younger)
or
35M straight cash
or
considering Balotelli wants a move to the EPL – If Balotelli is worth 20-25M, and Masch is apparently worth 50 (lets say we’ll taker 35) then Balotelli plus 5m would be a fair deal for both parties involved.
Couple this with the 3M from Riera and the 4M from Insua and we would still have 12 to spend! Could then also get a LB that.

it is obvious that mascheano is desperate to leave. And it is obvious that rafa is desperate for mascherano to join him at inter. So Roy should use this situation to his full advantage. He says he needs a left-back, that it is his top priority to get one, then get Davide Santon in a part-exchange deal for mascherano.
Santon + 20M= Mascherano
Thats a left-back, maybe our starting left-back and 20M a decent amount of money to land a good replacemtn for mascherano. and maybe roy could get 25m and santon out of rafa if he is that desperate to get mascherano
Banega or Toulalan or Raul Meireles as replacement.

To be honest, Muntari is a decent option as part of a deal. However Boateng looks like a better version of him, and is not lacking in confidence. Need someone with the athleticism to get forward and contribute to the attacks, and get back when needed. We do not need another holding player who contributes nothing more than breaking up play. Other than that, Jansen for left back, Raul would be a good option, but will be looking for a regular start, Turan maybe, Huntelaar on loan if we can manage that. But i have a feeling that he is looking at Ashley Young as his big major signing.

Inter watch out. Mascherano wanted to leave Liverpool last year supposedly because his wife was miserable in Liverpool – she can only speak Spanish, felt lonely not being able to mingle, so he wanted to go to Barcelona to help her. Why then does he suddenly want to go to Italy this year?? Do they speak Spanish in Italy? Masc is only using Inter to entice Barcelona into bidding or, if they can’t afford him this year, as a stepping stone before he moves in another preseason.

I hope the reason Balotelli’s city move is being delayed is because rafa wants to use him in a swap deal with mascherano. Straight swap with Muntari and Balo would be a steal, and rafa would be stupid enough to do it. Javier is a decent player but imo his price is hyper inflated and he is overrated, gives away too many free kicks in dangerous areas more often than actually winning the ball. We have to cash in on him

I like Scott Parker, good ball winner and good distribution, the kind of player needed if two central attacking midfielders are to be played out of Cole, Gerrard and Aquilani. I’m not a big fan of Muntari, no more than a mid-table team player for me.
loading...
anonymous - July 27th, 2010 at 9:49 pm
EVER BANEGA is a player our scouting department have been looking at for long time.A better all round player than MASCHERANO.I think he would fit in perfectly to our midfield,but does ROY HODGSON fancy him?
MIGUEL VELOSO with his range of passing (similar to XABI ALONSO) would be a fantastic signing for LIVERPOOL.He is a player that can get stuck in too.We could get him for 10 – 15 million.Then we could spend the rest of the JAVIER MASCHERANO money on ARDA TURAN,Who would come to us for roughly the same price.
STEVEN DEFOUR would be another exciting option but I feel his signing would be very attacking and disrupt the balance if he played in a defensive midfield role.

I think mascherano must be sold around 25-35 million, and Roy must bring paul scharner or christian poulsen but juventus are offering poulsen with a swap deal of daniel agger so it’s not much better for pool to make deal like that. paul scharner is a good central defensive midfielder and the main thing is that it is a free agent. So must grab him before its too late. Then the must first grab Maynor figueroa from wigan and it may cost them up to 5-10million. And the rest of the amount must be spend to buy another striker to lessen th burden of fernando torres. In my opinion they must think of Diego forlan, klaas jan huntelaar or Loic remey.

Liverpool should get a lot more than 25 mil., but if it’s 25 mil. + Muntari it could be enaugh.
Also Scott Parker could be good, who knows, maybe even get a call to Engalnd squad playing along side Gerrard in midfield.
It would give the team some much needed depth, and remaining money from Mascherano sale could be used to get a striker, Loic Remy perhaps…

I admire Hodgson not selling just because he wants to leave he has a contract this is a commitment to the club. Good luck August 15 where Fabregas and Mascherano will be opponents.

If masch doesn’t wanna wear the shirt then get rid. I genuinly believe torres loves Liverpool and wants to stay but he as a top player needs and wants to win trophies, I for one can’t blame him for this. Over the last 3 seasons he hasn’t had any kind of a break and now that he is having a holiday we as fans are demanding he stops his private holiday to have a press conference just to say yes or no? Give him his holiday and on Monday he should give his decision. But if Roy is making comments that he expects him to stay and Carra is doin the same thing at the moment I believe them.

I remmamber Muntari playing really well at Portsmuth, what are you talking about?
Inter has their poor decisons but they would never bough a bad player from Portsmuth.
He is more than decent player, but does Liverpool need him is another matter.
I think he can be used.

If we can bag figueroa for around the 8 million quoted will be a job well done. Figueroa as number 1 and young as an able squad player for 10m. Getting bargain buys for LB means we should be able to replace Mascherano and get a top quality LM player in…turan please!!

Luke Young would come in as experienced full back cover and also ticks the home grown player box for the new 25 player squad (plus of course our kids under 21 to complement that).
You might not think this is the most exciting player but this is a make or break year for liverpool – Top 4 is a must – so Roy seems to be counting on experienced PL professionals who can hit the ground running. Of course limited funds for back up players is also a consideration.
This isn’t the end of the signings but for the record, I expect some more expensive signings to be brought in the January transfer window when (hopefully) the takeover will have been completed.
Parker would be an immense signing (as would Cattermole).

Now come on people, when did we become bitter and twisted like the MANCS???? LIVERPOOL FC has a good reputation of making ex-players welcome when they return…..WHY change that? If Mascherano wants to leave then so be it, at least he’s open and honest about leaving. In football terms he’s a valuable asset, its better he leaves now and we get cash. Than let him run down his contract and leave for nothing. AND IF…..our paths cross again, wherever or whoever he plays for he should receive a good reception…….
Those of you old enough to remember, know this is the Liverpool way. REMEMBER Rush leaving???? The days before the net and flash mobiles broadcasting the lastest news……..It was a snippet on the local news, I was gutted, but it was good for the club……The club rolled on, the fans still respected him. The club will always roll on, long after we are all gone. Fans these days just seem more fickle. Its all about the big names. OUR TIME WILL COME AGAIN. Just need some stability, remember the MANCS won it with kids and experience……how long did it take them?????

NOW ive had my rant above, onto more serious team matters. We should get the best price for Mascherano, in other countries they ain’t gonna value as high as over here. Milner 25-30mil???? Thats because Man City want him….if it was Madrid or Barca, Milner would go for 15-20mil. I think its the whole playing in the same league situation, like the loan situation, not being allowed to play against your mother club. Teams don’t like being bitten by ex-players.
We don’t need a replacement for Mascherano……
NOW the way I see it is with this 25 man squad is 2 GK. 2 RB. 2 LB. 5 CB. 2 RM/W, 2 LM/W, 5 CM AND 5 CF…….NOW before everyone goes on about 5 in certain positions, you,ve to understand that some of the 5 are versatile to play in different positions. I WARN YOU NOW THO I HAVEN’T READ THE NEW 25MAN SQUAD RULE SO I DON’T KNOW IF MY THINKING IS CLEAR…we need 8 home grown which I think classes Carra, Johnson, Gerrard, Cole, Pacheco? Darby? Kelly? Ayala?
So I think a quality striker to play with Torres or fill in for him, we also have Kuyt, Jovanovic & Babel but I think they will be mainly used as wingers. N’Gog can go on loan…..not leave but gain experience, the talent is there. Huntelaar would be a great option, but on loan with a view to buy….A loan player will try their best for a move…..or even pump up their value. Raul could be an option on a free, only wages to pay…plus his vast experience to give to the youngsters, including Torres…..Player coach role???? IF the money is there……Aguero or Tevez…..views? MAIN THING Torres needs quality support, knows he has it with Gerrard…..then the left backs perhaps Riise?
im tired and babbling be back 2moz…..

THE CHOSEN ONE
The only difference between Scot Parker and Lucas is scot can shoot better outside the box while Lucas is definately a better ball winner. scot Like Lucas feel their best positions are not defensive midfielders but in my opinion I think his favourite effevtive position is that role and think he is the most under ated player at liverpool. however with bookings in that position we do need another player to compete with him, say a 10 mil buy.
Just like I thought the board are using the argy money for our summer spending. I honestly think that Lucas will do a fantastic job for us there and it is nice to see some people here appreciate him.

i dont believe we need aguero as within a season pachecho will be better than him
thought luke young was a right back to be honest, maybe he is being signed as cover for johnson and the departing degen, thought kelly or darby could easily be the understudy there
masch = cambiasso + milito + 5 million seems a fair shout , unsure of milito and torres in the same lineup though. milito is a useful striker
why do people seem to think sulley muntari is a holding midfielder, he plays left midfield and he is pretty rubbish , we shouldnt be taking inter milan cast offs that we dont NEED, we shoud be taking some of their assets ie cambiasso who is actually better than masch asa dcmleft with cambiasso and lucas as his able understudy and then use tthe 20 million for a striker of our choice. d.bent , huntelaar, defoe, remy, maybe even on an attacking player like turan
heard rumours of timoshyuch (spelling) of bayern as masch s replacement, i ve always liked russian footballers, what happene to ansaldi for left back????
———————————————reina——————————————————

thisline up would be a good starting point for the new season, possibly switching the positions of aquilani , j.cole and gerrard , who ive always found to be devastatingas a right sided player, great cross and always looks a dangerous goal threat from there, though his legs will be going a bit so a nice holding midfield role is gerrards long term future at the club, from which he can dictate play with a resurgent lucas and aquilani ahead of him ina midfield triangle(this is a season or two away before everyone goes on about losing the potency of gerrards attacking play)

Luke Young i think is a poor piece of business if it comes off. He is a right back NOT a left back, yes he can play LB but so can Agger, Carra, Darby. We need a proper LB not a makeshift one and if it’s for the home-grown rule, then bring in a good left back and then go and get Stephen Ireland, we don’t need any def midfielders we need box to box midfielders and we have 2 in Gerrard & Lucas, we need one more to compliment them and if not Ireland then what about bringing back Alou Diarra he would qualify as homegrown (I Think!)

Mascherano is a good player but if you don’t want to play for us then piss off and let a player who does want to play for us come in. 25 million is good enough we can get a replacement for that money.

sell sell sell!! get rid of mash, never seemed to impress me and 25 mil is a good amount of money, i also feel a strong season for aqualani this year and with him and gerrard operating the centre of midfield, we should bring in a young ENGLISH! central midfielder for around £5mil leaving 20 mil from the sale of mash to bring in a top quality striker to parter torres up top…
team for next year
Reina
Johnson Carragher Agger (NEW LB)
Cole Gerrard Aqualani Janovic
Torres (NEW STRIKER)
I feel a young left back would be ideal as we need pace and youth in our ranks right not, someone like rafhina. As for up top with Torres, someone with experience, strength and knows were the back of the net is. Gyan from rennes fits the bill perfectly, also only cost us between 8-12 mil leaving a fair amount to bring in a young midfielder.

The Don - July 28th, 2010 at 5:59 pm
This may contradict some of the players I suggested signing earlier, but I have been giving this some thought…..
With the Argentineans jumping ship (Which I can understand, Due to the quality and expense of Life in England, verses Spain and Italy, The 50% taxes verse a top rate of 18% in Spain) it would mean that that if you were on a £100,000 a week. here you could move to Spain and get paid £70,000 a week and still come out better after tax, That plus English players will be more loyal to a English club, just like a Spaniard to a Spanish club, etc, that plus the langue barrier, and pace of life…
So where was I, yes…,
With the Argentineans jumping ship, should we not be looking more to players that come from countries like ours, (Germany, Holland, France, and Eastern European countries… The African countries, and Far Eastern countries, i.e. the non- Spanish/Portuguese speaking countries
This is not a xenophobic rant; it is a mere observation…..
These players seem to come to play for English clubs, but show no real loyalty when push comes to shove, whether it is do to the fact that they find life here stress full, the pace of life here relentless, the fact that with the booze culture you can not go out for a meal with your partner without worrying that some drunken yob will cause a altercation …..
Did most of you know that you can go into a Mc Donald’s in France and order a beer with your Big Mac??…..
We are the only country in Europe were people go out to get smashed out of their face of a weekend…
So can you see why it would be hard for some players to settle? Yes you could say it would be hard for the Germans, Dutch and French players, but there cultures are more a kin to ours than to the Italians, Portuguese, or Spanish
We stand a better chance for keeping player that are not from these countries. Ideally what we need are more Scouser playing for us, but in the meantime we need to look less at Spanish, Italians and Portuguese speaking players
Just how many of our Spanish buys were happy to stay?…Answer…. Very few

Warren Bloggs - July 28th, 2010 at 6:06 pm
Why am I the only Liverpool fan who is begging for Muntari to be a part of the Mascherano deal? Muntari plus £12m and I would bite the hands off! Mascherano was world-class but the way he has treated the club is disgusting, he has under two years left on his contract and with games fast approaching we do not have time to hold out for £30+m, we will not get that and we will end up with a player who no longer wants to play for the club, he will bring the dressing room down and will leave next summer for something silly like £5-10m!!! Muntari CAN play in the centre as he did for Pompey and he was amongst the best midfieler’s in the league, he outclassed Lass Diarra for crying out loud!! He is left-footed and would compliment Gerrard in the centre, he is also versatile and could play in defence, on the left-wing or even behind the striker! Great player, and ideal replacement.
Maynor Figueroa would be perfect for left-back and Luke Young would provide decent cover, if not brilliant cover. I would still take Paul Scharner on a free and then focus all our attentions on Arda Turan and another forward, that is unless Hodgson is going to put his confidence in Babel.

Retryboy - July 28th, 2010 at 10:43 pm
Warren it’s not about Muntari as a player it’s what we need at the club, i actually rate him as a creative player but with Stevie g and Aquilani we don’t need him. Gerrard/Muntari CM just wouldn’t work we need someone to release Gerrard to attack from CM. Also the left midfield and left back areas are our weaknesses right now.

get the 30 mil and let lucas have a go. He’s spent the early part of his anfield career in Mascherano’s shadow. Give him a role as the sole holding midfielder and who knows, he might show us all why he’s considered good enough for Brazil.

Retryboy - July 29th, 2010 at 7:04 am
Think lucas would be shown up and players would walk past him without Mascherano there. Remember in the arsenal game when Mascherano got sent off? They tore us to shreds with just lucas protecting the back four. He is ok as a deputy but not a first team player.

We are not going to get anymore signings as the Masch money will be pocketed by the Yanks and the deal will be done within the next week.

We need a new owner with money to get :
Turan
Aguaro
Sneijder
Do you really think Benitez would want to sell Sneijder to us.. Benitez wanted 55m when Barce were snooping around Masch last season. Why has his price tag dropped when he was one of our most consistent last season. Stick him on the bench for the remainder of his contract the wanker.

with that buy turan for 15
then the left over 5-10 million plus all the other sales that have been occuring benayoun (5m) insua (5m) reira (4m) adds up to 20 mill, then sell one of babel lucas or aquilani and we have almost 30 mill( depending on who is sold of them 3) to buy a class striker. my choices would be forlan, aguero or benzema and depending on who is bought could have money left over.
team.
————–Reina———————-
Johnson——-Agger—–Carra—–Santon

I would like to see an English lad and I think Scott Parker or Lee Cattermole could fill the void left by Mascherano, I would also like to see us sell Babel and buy Ashley Young

Sell Masch 25mil
LB? Maybe but what about Aurellio & Insua? I don’t rate Insua defensively but good in attack.
I would personally buy Juan Mata for around 12mil, natural LW Babel on the right, Maxi Jovanovic and Cole for wing cover.
Alternitively Mata RW Babel LW Cole CAM Aqua and Stevie CM
Against top teams we do need a CDM, tough call.
