Forren is highly rated, it'll be very annoying if Southampton sign him.
I think/hope they are trying to force Liverpools hand

Well, Sissoko won't be earning £75k a week at Marseille, I'm sure.

One or two around us strengthening now. QPR close to pulling in a couple of good players, Southampton reportedly giving a medical to the Norwegian CB Forren. One of the most highly rated young defenders in Europe for £4m.

I heard forren was on a weeks trial at liverpool last night? If he goes to saints he will be a good signing for them.

Yep, I think Liverpool's plan to trial him first annoyed Forren, and Saints have stepped in.

Or...just possibly...he's trying to negotiate with player's agents, players, clubs to get the right player in rather than, "fuck it Nigel Reo-Coker was nearly good once so he'll have to do".

Yes,because I can't keep up with all the links we've had with players over the past few weeks.He said himself he wasn't looking at anything til after the Bradford game.It seems multi tasking isn't his thing

Or single tasking for that matter

Or he's looked at him and thought he's not good enough.

Most of the links are made up, so that#s not a fair way to judge.

And even if he did say it, was that in the context of starting looking after Bradford or starting negotiations for already identified players?
