Am I missing something with this one? We're not really interested are we?
Stinks of signings like Sanchez and to a lesser degree, Fred, where we're competing with the clubs above us for the player but they end up being either rubbish or nothing to boast about. If we hadn't already signed Donny, then I'd be thinking yes sure, go for it. I know people will come back with the 'competition for places thing', but we already have six midfield players now plus I expect us to keep at least one of Mata, Lingard, or Andreas. It just seems like an odd one to me.
I don't necessarily think our supposed interest will allow Bayern to get more money out of Liverpool and I assume he'd rather go there than to us anyway. Not just because they're a better team than us at the moment, but I think it's actually easier to get into Liverpool's midfield than say Man City's, ours, or even Chelsea's. Odd thing to say in regards to the runaway league winners, but I do think it's fair to say that central midfield is where Liverpool can improve the easiest.
