Real “Raiders” Madrid have used all their money. Alonso stays.

Let`s all be happy for that.

I have read that even Platini and the Pope are wondering where all their money comes from, and why they spend money like this in a time of financial crisis.

What did Shanks say? “Treat players like men, because you`ll be asking them to play like men”.

Not like primadonnas in a cage! Money will NEVER get you heroism. REAL SHIT isn`t it.

I am bricking it over the thought of lucas running our midfield he couldnt run a piss up in a brewery lets face it. If these two do leave it will leave a huge gap in our squad but knowing rafa he has already got someone lined up to come in.
He doesnt say alot to the papers but I bet he has spoken to one or two players about the possibility of coming to the mighty anfield. I would like to see silva come in to replace masch and keep hold of alonso.
If we did sell the pair then we would be struggling to find someone t fill alonso’s place but if he wants to go then let him go. We could always bid for a man utd player they all seem to be deserting old fergie (god love him) he seems to have lost the plot so early this season buying OWEN for god sake the guy was past his best when we got shot of him, nice guy (met him twice) but not exactly first choice striker now. Poor poor man utd

It’s the media that wants the players to move on more then themselves.I’m confident that both will remain with us.Alonso understandbly may feel a bit angry over Rafa wanting to sell him last season.

Both players should stay with Liverpool. But if Mascherano wants to leave, and Xabi has proved to be a much better player. Let Javier go. But I think it is important that one will stay. It`s better with good players than a huge amount of money.

LFC has got Glen Johnson. Best right back for many years.

i completely agree. i want to keep both masch and alonso but if i could keep one it would have to be alonso. he is our midfield basically. Maybe sell masch for around £30-35mil and use it to sign david silva and a good striker. thats my opinion anyway

I keep hearing the same old Xabi news regurgetated (forgive my spelling, in the garden with a bottle of wine), let me summarise;
1) Madrid have stated their desire to sign our talented midfielder and have tabled (true or not) a low bid (to register their interest).
2) Rafa has stated Xabi is part of his plans for next season.
3) Xabi (probably due to lessons learnt last year) has stated he has no idea where he will play his football next year, Madrid are an interesting side, but he will have no regrets staying at Liverpool.
4) Liverpool could go bust at any moment (whilst signing Glen Johnson).

Everything else is a version of these 4 statements with the “Xabi doesn’t get along with Rafa because he tried to sell him last year” (after his 2nd poor season) thrown in. Even Xabi’s agent is quite (not trying to un-settle Liverpool). I have to say hats off to Xabi, a fantastic season (player of the year from the Centenary stand) and conducting himself superbly through this whole debacle. Looking forward to seeing him in a red shirt next premier league season !!!!!!

Oh yea of little faith. All will be taken care of just as it was when we bought the two players! Let Rafa do his best, he will.

We need to keep both Xabi and Mascherano, having Lucas in the midfield doesn’t fill me with joy at all.

I hope Rafa comes out again to say the same re Xabi as i think Xabi runs many of our games and the thourght of Lucas and Mascherano running the midfield fills me with dread!

When Xabi was injured last season there was no creativiety coming from our central midfield.
