Liverpool have Moved in to Agree Signing – Proven Quality Needed

Omer — Thu, 02 Mar 2017 19:00:42 +0000

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is renowned for handing out opportunities to youngsters and a few have shone under his management this season.
The likes of Alexander-Arnold, Ejaria, Woodburn have earned crucial game time and have shown massive improvements.
The German manager is interested in adding more talented youngsters to the squad. If reports are anything to go by then the Reds have moved in to sign a South American sensation in the form of Rodrygo.
According to Brazilian source Globo Esporte, the teenage center forward received a proposal from the Merseysiders that rocked him. After Liverpool’s offer, Santos are doing whatever possible to hold onto him.
As far as Liverpool’s strike-force is concerned, the former Borussia Dortmund boss sold the likes of Balotelli and Benteke last summer. Danny Ings remains sidelined with injury and Sturridge’s future is up in the air (This is Anfield).
In such a scenario, the Anfield club seriously lack quality and depth in the strike-force.
The Samba starlet will improve Liverpool’s academy but the Reds need to sign a proven quality out and out goalscorer to amplify the quality of their first team next summer. Klopp would definitely love to sign Aubameyang.
As per the provided Globo link, Rodrygo wants to make a name in Brazil first and then move abroad. His family and representatives want a bumper new deal for the player and expect the club to pay for housing and marketing activities as well.

Offer Made – Liverpool Have to Agree €40million Versatile Player Signing

Omer — Wed, 21 Dec 2016 06:45:47 +0000

Liverpool have been in fantastic form this season and are currently six points behind league leaders Chelsea.
The Reds are one of the favorites to win the Premier League title but they must reinforce the squad in the winter transfer window to make their case stronger.
Recent reports have suggested that Liverpool have made an offer to Brazilian midfielder Thiago Maia (ESPN BR).
Thiago was part of the Brazilian squad that won the Olympics this summer under the captaincy of Barca superstar Neymar. He has been impressive for Santos and proved to be a strong DM and also a creative central midfielder.
Moreover, he has the power and trickery to contribute in the attacking third as well and can be fruitful for the Reds in the absence of Sadio Mane who will leave for the African Cup of Nations next month.
Such versatility is a major asset and Liverpool must secure his signature.
Last season, the teenage midfielder featured in 21 games for Santos and helped them finish second in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A.
Santos manager Dorival Junior rates Maia very highly and wants the club to give him a new deal (Esporte Interativo). Praising him, Dorival claimed:

“There’s this kid that’s starting, Thiago, and I’m appealing to his agent to get this deal with Santos. It is a possibility for this kid to grow, he is a promising kid, who is sure to have a very big growth, he will be a top player in Brazilian football. But he needs a longer period, needs stability, and he will only achieve if he has a sequence”

As per the provided ESPN BR link, other top clubs are also interested in securing the signature of the Samba starlet who is rated around €40million (Football Italia) by the Brazilian side.

Liverpool Have Already Moved in to Get Thiago Maia Signing Done

Zaryab — Mon, 19 Dec 2016 05:30:43 +0000

Liverpool face Everton tonight in the Premier League and need three points to pile pressure on runaway leaders Chelsea who won their 11th league game on the trot by beating Crystal Palace on Saturday.
The Reds also need to strengthen their squad in the winter window to push for the title in the new year.
As far as the transfers are concerned, Liverpool have been linked with midfielders like Mahmoud Dahoud (Borussia Monchengladbach) and Franck Kessie (Atlanta).
Now, another versatile player is in the limelight in the form of Santos midfielder Thiago Maia. According to reports (ESPN BR), Liverpool have already moved in with a proposal to sign the 19-year-old Brazilian starlet..
Liverpool already have more than a few versatile midfielders like Henderson, Wijnaldum and Can in the squad. What they really need is someone who can provide a solid cover in front of the back four.
Brazilian defensive midfielder Lucas Leiva is past his best and should be sold/replaced. On the other hand, young Stewart is still inexperienced and not good enough to play as the holding midfielder in the first team regularly.
Henderson has been working hard in the deeper role but he is not an expert in breaking attacks by any means.
Therefore, Jurgen Klopp must look to splash the cash and sign a top DM in the winter transfer window.

Neymar – Personification Of Football Artistry

Gunner — Sun, 10 Jun 2012 15:46:45 +0000

I’m going to start this post by admitting that I have little knowledge of the Brazilian game. I’ve been a big fan of Brazil’s national team since the 2002 World Cup win over England, but have only really started to get into the domestic league and teams.
That of course means my views on the Brasileirão won’t necessarily be spot on, it will however, be opinion based and not intended to deceive anyone i.e. I won’t pretend I know a lot thus causing fellow novices to believe my words as truth. But anyways, let’s begin on the topic I originally planned to discuss.
My Brazilian team is Santos, a lot to do with the legend Pelé and the languid Ganso but, most notably, it is the recent legend that has caught my attention: The electrifying showman, Neymar.
The young Brazilian has wowed fans all around the world with his dribbling skills, accomplishment of pure skill and his overall ability and level of performances. These attributes have drawn comparisons to none other than Lionel Messi. And it’s easy to see why, they can both dribble with the ball, confuse defenders, both have an eye for goal and have received high praise from fans of the beautiful football.

But I think it’s another Brazilian who Neymar is most similar to. That Brazilian being the somewhat forgotten hero: Garrincha. Garrincha was a fantastic player, one of the first players to introduce flair to the game. His dribbling skills were second to none, he could weave in and out of defenders, run back and forth with the ball entertaining audiences from 1953 to 1972.
Regarded as the best dribbler in football history, Garrincha was an innovator and Neymar himself has said his style is similar to the troubled ‘Alegria do Povo’. It’s also easy to see why Neymar is held in such a high regard. He has all the attributes to be one of the greats, but there are questions over his physique and strength – which are required in European football.
Many have claimed Neymar will end up with broken legs when trying all of his skills on stronger, bigger defenders but you just have to look as recent as Ronaldinho to consider that a moderately unfounded belief.
Besides, from what I’ve seen, the Brazilian league is a fairly competitive one anyway; a quick, strong league that requires some strength. And you only need to watch a Neymar compilation on YouTube to notice he’s been getting kicked about since a young age; it’s the only way to stop him so he is physically used to a kick or two.

Everyone focuses on the skillful side of his game, but he does have other highly developed attributes. Having already scored over 100 goals in under 200 appearances at the age of 20, it’s evident he is a goal scorer. He has a good end product and understanding of the game; he can get himself into useful positions and can make the most of them.
His record for Brazil isn’t too shabby either: 9 goals in 17 games, the first coming on his debut against the United States. He will be a key figure in the national team for years to come, starting at the summer Olympics then the 2014 World Cup in his home country, Brazil.
Prone to scoring good goals, he was awarded the 2011 FIFA Puskás Award – the award for the most aesthetically significant and most beautiful goal of the year (Wikipedia’s words, not mine) – for his goal in the Série A game vs Flamengo. He received the ball out wide, cut inside leaving 2 defenders trailing, played a one-two and skillfully knocked the ball past the defender then finishing with some style.
On the downside, he has received some criticism for feigning injury and diving. It has to be said there is some truth in these claims, but in modern football a lot of footballers make the most of challenges.
Plus his body is very light, meaning no matter how used to being kicked he is, he won’t be able to remain standing all the time so it would be unfair to let this negative aspect override the many positive aspects of his game and generally effect your opinion, though it would be ideal for him to cut down.
In my opinion, it would be realistic to name Neymar as one of the best in the world. People say he’ll need to come to Europe to prove himself, however, Pelé spent his entire career at Santos (before coming out of retirement to join New York Cosmos) and he is often named the greatest ever.
I do believe it is ignorant to disregard the quality of Brazilian football. Many, many great players have come from Brazil and have graced Europe with their silky skills winning awards and titles.
Will Neymar be successful should he ever come to Europe? Well, there’s no sufficient evidence to suggest he wouldn’t be. I believe he’ll have a slow start while he settles, but I’m sure once he is, he’ll prove many people wrong and shine.
Maybe he’ll stay at Santos forever, we don’t really know. It’s unlikely we’ll see him make a move soon as he has a young son and I doubt he’ll want to disrupt his upbringing or be an absent father.
Whether or not he does leave, I’ll always enjoy watching him. He represents everything that’s great with football; the entertainment value. Though if he joins a club I dislike, I will naturally be inclined to dislike him too.
So here’s hoping he doesn’t. He is football artistry personified.
