Re: Liverpool Thread

Oussama Assaidi then .... looks good in the video on the official site anyway! ;)

A Dutch mate of mine just said:

"wow, really, there it was said he was going to Ajax. He was together with Narsingh (Now PSV) and Dost (Now Wolfsburg) good for about 32 goals, for Dost, and a whole lot of assists. He is an good forward, a little like Suarez only not by far as good and more a winger."
 
Re: Liverpool Thread

Oussama Assaidi's stats for SC Heerenveen last season: 29 matches (27 starts) I 10 goals and 8 assists.
 
Re: Liverpool Thread

Galatasaray very keen on singing on him but they bought Amrabat instead. So will he play or a bench warmer? He is having back problems i heard..
 
Re: Liverpool Thread

Oussama Assaidi has signed a four-year-contract and will be earning £21,000/week at Liverpool. (Dominic King - Daily Mail)
 
Re: Liverpool Thread

Assaidi came like from out of nowhere. Does anybody know if he's any good to start ahead of Downing cos' I really know nothing about him?

Where is Sahin ? I thought this was done already.

There's talk that Arsenal have jumped back in and asks Sahin to wait a few days until they know what's happening with Song. Sahin prefers Arsenal and will only join us if Arsenal don't go for him.

There was only a passing interest when Comolli was at Liverpool but nothing official ever lodged. Since Rodgers took over, we've not been interested and Ramirez's agent has just been using Liverpool for publicity etc.

Also read that we went for Assaidi after missing out on Tello and Affelay.
 
Re: Liverpool Thread

have no clue how good Assaidi is but Tello isn't all that, wheres Affelay off or Barcelona not budging?

What's Liverpool's best teams as of right now then?
 
Re: Liverpool Thread

Dempsey has asked for a transfer from Fulham, just needs to drop his wage demands otherwise we'll pass on him like we did with Sigurdsson and his wage demands.
 
Re: Liverpool Thread

good posts about Assaidi from RAWK:

Hey guys, I have been around here for ages. Finally decided to register after I saw this transfer. I'm really excited about this transfer, since I'm both a LFC fan and a Heerenveen fan. Although It's also sad to see him go, because he was our only really good player left.

I attend all Heerenveen home games, so I've watched him alot. So if you have any questions I would gladly try to answer them!

As for now I would say his pro's are:
Can easily beat a defender
Can actually score as a winger
Can create something out of nothing

cons would probably be:
Inconsistency ( One day he can basically humiliate every defender in the Eredivisie, the other day he's invisible.)
His defending, sometimes he just forgets about it. Or is to lazy to do it.

I think he could turn out to be a real bargain for us. Once again if you guys have questions, I will do my best to answer them.

Excuse my grammar.

Assaidi is so cheap because he has 1 year left on his contract and Raiola was threatening Heerenveen with the fact that should a transfer not come this summer that Assaidi will walk for free after his contract runs out. He was supposed to be signing for Ajax though, even posed in an Ajax kit and everything. Heerenveen and Ajax agreed on terms several weeks ago, but Raiola had stalled the deal and we now know why.

Assaidi said he wanted to join Ajax because his dad has passed away recently and he wanted to be closer to his mom (both him and Narsingh are from Amsterdam). Even said on camera that he doesn't want to go abroad for this very same reason, only to be signing for Liverpool a few days later..

He's right footed, but played on the left to accomodate Narsingh. While Narsingh relies on his pace Assaidi is more known for his tekkers. Assaidi is also more selfish in front of goal which is why Narsingh had the most assists in Eredivisie (closely followed by Eriksen) while Assaidi's stats were.. less impressive to say the least. Assaidi is a flair player so could become a crowd favourite, but don't expect a lot of goals or assist from him.

Re: Liverpool Thread

I'm excited for the start of the season tomorrow, think we'll
be much better than last year and maybe some of the underperforming
players will improve.

Transfer wise I think our business has been shrewd, Assaidi will
hopefully turn out more than he's worth. There's a good load of talent
in the dutch league at the moment many of these players not playing for
the likes of Ajax, PSV, Feyenoord. These are the type of players that we should be looking at. Dries Mertens is a perfect example, Dusan Tadic will
be another.

Hopefully we can get Sahin this weekend, sell Caroll back to newcastle
and bring in another forward player before deadline day.
