PL breaths a collective sigh of relief.......Liverpool just about break even, what they gained by selling Suarez they lost in the Carroll deal.....add to that the goals they will lose.....hmmmmm

Rovers to call up Levy to see how to spend a lot of money....

I've warmed to the idea of going for Khedira - I still think he wanders a little too far afield at times, and he can look a little heavy-legged and cumbersome (although I should stress that that's just appearance, and not performance), but there's just something infectiously positive about the way he plays? The way he presses and hounds opponents is almost relentless, and everything he does seems to go forward, instead of sideways or backwards. I'm starting to think that a central midfield pairing of him and Ramsey could be a real handful - not sure he's worth 150k a week, but I'm guessing that would be open to negotiation (assuming that figure hasn't just been plucked out of the air, that is)...

He does and it probably gives you flashbacks of Song, but I'd like to think he simply senses when he needn't sit back so much and actually goes to make the difference in the opponents third. Football is about moments and the best modern day players pick the tight time to do the right things.

You'd think a German international would have some sort of sense of when he needs to retreat or fall back, or else it would be pretty amazing clocking up so many games for Real and Germany.

If Sammy boy wants to stay in a top league, he's going to need to bend on those salary demands. He will know it and his agent will. Unless of course he is quite happy to stay put at Real....

Yeah, he's a fat Spanish charlatan who tends to spout garbage info but people are tricked into believing him because it's in a spanish accent. He's also fat.

Yup! Would be good to get him......but if not let us not give up on the other two names being mooted around......

Agreed, and to be fair to Khedira, his roaming may just be a simple case of Low telling him to press the opposition high up the pitch, which they can afford to do with guys like Lahm and Schweinsteiger in the same XI - given a different team and different instructions, he may be perfectly happy playing more of a holding role?

In certain situations, his ability to get forward may even be an asset? Wenger showed willing to go 442 for the first time in a long time in the FA Cup final, and couple of players like Sanchez and Khedira could give us the added options we need to really make that formation tick - Sanchez as a second striker, and Khedira as a second box-to-box midfielder alongside Ransey. I wouldn't expect to suddenly become our default formation or anything, but it would me nice to know that we could switch to it with relatively little fuss if and when we need to...

So, it passes 7pm and still no transfer activity today.

Must be going to the same place as Giroud to get his hair done.
