This week could see Liverpool being dealt a massive double blow with Javier Mascherano set to join Barcelona and Xabi Alonso hoping for a move to Real Madrid. If the two players were to leave it would make a massive hole in Liverpools midfield and dent their championship aspirations. The two plaers have been the centre piece around which the team is slowly being created and replacing them will be difficult. A bid for Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas would make all Liverpool fans happy, but he has his heart set on a move back home to Spain.
WHO WILL WE GET TO FILL THE HOLE
The transfer market has gone pretty quite of late. That was until Arsenals Cesc Fabregas set off a transfer scramble by admitting he his frustrated by the lack of silver ware at the club.
"Cristiano [Ronaldo] said he's leaving Manchester United because he had nothing else to win. For me right now it is the exact opposite" he said
"This year we wanted it, we were giving everything – but we couldn't reach the level that everyone expected of Arsenal. When you win, you're well. But when you don't, everyone is in a bad mood. For four years now, we've needed a title to regain our belief in ourselves."
Although Fabregas and his family are Barcelona fans at heart he went on to hint that a move to Real Madrid could be on the cards.
"Of course my family would understand if I signed for Real Madrid because they love me, they want me to be happy and what is best for me. They'd support me – whichever club I joined. My family will always be there for me – whatever decision I make.
"They're the ones who are always by my side."
The financial cloud that has been hanging over Liverpool football club has lifted somewhat after co owner George Gillet sold his stake in Ice Hockey team The Montreal Canadiens for a whopping $660 million. There had been reports that Liverpool may have to sell off some of their prized assets to cover mounting debts, but now it looks as though that will not happen and that Manager Rafael Benitez will have a healthy transfer kitty to build on their second place finish last season.
GO THE REDS
Chelsea have had a bid of around $35 million excepted for former playter Glen Johnson. Johnson was sold by the club to Portsmouth for just $8 million a short time ago after he fell out of favour and was looking to re build his career. He is now an England regular and is now one of the hottest properties in football. It had looked as though LIverpool would win the race for his signature but money bags Abrhamovic has reached deep in to his pockets and come up with some extra cash.
Just a few seasons a go the fee would have been seen as quite ridiculous but with the recent $160 million transfer of Ronaldo to Real Madrid $35 million don't look all that bad.
I like to dabble on ebay. It makes me a little extra cash but nothing like the amount that I dreamt about last night. I am currently trying to sell the special edition centennial issue of the National Geographic magazine. In my dream I went on to the computer to check how it was going. When I saw that after just one day the amount had reached $45,000 my stoch churned with delight and I was already spending the money in my head. When I awoke I still had a smile from ear to ear but that soon faded when I checked the item for real and found that no one has yet beid on the item.
I feel that this dream was tracking my hopes for my ebay dabbling. That one day i will find an item that is very rare that will make me a lot of money.
