SSN - Breaking News - Konchesky In Liverpool Dressing Rooms Today

[Lighthouse]

Leaves a gap for tomorrow. Briggs went off injured, Salcido not fit. So Kelly in maybe. Anyway clearly Konk wanted to go and Hughes held out for the best deal. If we do rap the two liverpool 19 year olds then we can hardly complain. Although hanging on to a few others will be interesting. If Etuhu plays tomorrow than the rumours of him going will be doubtful. An interesting few days.

I honestly don't know what to think about this.  I'm sharing a bit of Ridge's butter, I recognise that he made a few mistaklets, but we did seem to win games with him in the side and lose them when he was off gallavanting sick as a porcupine quill in a virgin's thigh.  And he was fast.
Nogood "fencing on the sit, isit" Boyo

I didn't want him to leave, but see no point in keeping a player who wants to leave us - even when it was only B'ham sniffing around, he seemed interested in leaving.

It is definitely "Nogood "fencing on the sit" Boyo" Boyo but you have summed up my sentiments precisely.

About sums up my thoughts...

Thanks Konch-shell for the memories...I'll support you but not the shirt that you wear.

[TheDaddy]

The forum at liverpool seems to think the price for Konchesky is between 2-4 million plus the 2 young lads as either part of the deal or only loans.

Looks to me like a good bit of business on the Gaffers part . :54:

[jarv]

A very good piece of business. Agree, much improved player in the last 12 months but is right on his sell by date. RH needs quick fixes and Konch, to be fair, is probably a good short term quick fix.
Liverpool top 4, top 6 , top 8...you're having a laugh.

If we get Dalle Valle...this is great great biz... the kid is the real deal...

[NorthernWhite]

I like Konch and he's been very good going forward over the last year. That said, Salcido has come with a good reputation. If we get 4 million and or Della Valle and the other lad I'd be very happy. Della Valle looks a fantastic prospect.

If the deal with Schwarzer and Arsenal finally goes through, I wouldn't be surprised to see Traore come in on loan as
well for cover.

I think you've hit the nail on the head there, sums up my thinking on the guy

Bout now we have the Stigs, sorry Konch's, mexican cousin. He's surely faster!

Not sure that is true that Briggs went off injured, there was no sign of a problem, I just thought Sparky wanted to give kelly some playing time as we were cruising

[Lighthouse]

Hughes said it was a shame he had to come off with a knock and Briggs was carrying a bag of ice as he left the field. All if which doesn't make it sound too bad admittedly

1415: MORE BREAKING LIVERPOOL NEWS:
Fulham defender Paul Konchesky is at Anfield, strolling around the dressing room area. Well I'd say that's a done deal then, no?

[SmithyFFC]

Bad new. Set up lots of goals from the left. Remember the 4-1 v Juve? Help set up two of them with his pace. Really bad news I fear.

[ImperialWhite]

Gutted. One of my favourite players - isn't all that defending-wise but is outstanding going forwards. He provides so much widthin attack (most assists of a defender 07/08, my favourite Fulham stat...). Odd looking head. Think we could miss him, though hopefully Salicido will prove to be just as good.

We did get £4mill though - seems like an awful lot for someone who's 29.

For me it was the fact he never signalled any intention to stay longer, cash in now Im afraid

[Lighthouse]

Not sure why we want Konk if he wants to leave. Going forward he was good but his final ball was as bad as you could get. Against United he often fought his way into good positions only to muck it up. That was the story of Konk. He was also the worst defensive player in our back four. For 4 million it is fair enough. We may have a better player to replace him. But really if you are a Liverpool fan would Konk be the sort of player you would want?

So long and thanks for all the work. But feel bitter at the Gentleman Roy by all means. His word seems to be as good as his subs.

[epsomraver]

Rumours are abound that he is after Zamora, He will really go down in my estimation if he comes poaching again

He shocked Fulham by asking about a few players. His attitude seemed to be that everybody would want to follow him even after saying it wouldn't be right to poach players from Fulham. But there is no way in this window that anything will happen with BZ. I hope.

I think credit must go to our new management for buying and keeping the players he has. Only 27 hours to go. :022:

The QPR loan of EJ waiting to go through if we get another striker does inspire one that we may not be done ourselves
