Is Moreno the former Liverpool player?

No you’re thinking of Alberto Moreno. Who actually ironically is at Villarreal.

Surprised there's nothing on here about Alberto Moreno today. It sounded like things were quite far along last night from what I was reading.

Alex Moreno.

Alberto Moreno is the one who looks a bit like a hobbit and hung around at Liverpool under Brendan Rodgers.

Percy from the Torygraph seems to think it's close. Digne not rated perhaps? 29, so bit of a strange signing strategically.

Who is also looking more and more like a hobbit Dave. Brendan Rodgers, that is!

No, it's probably fair. As I approach my forties I can feel my feet getting hairier and I'm increasingly reluctant to leave the house as well.

Dave, to be fair, if you find yourself living underground, that actually makes you a Blues fan, not necessarily a hobbit!

Moreno 'deal' getting more and more coverage, looks like it's a goer.

John Percy

#avfc to continue talks with Real Betis over £12m deal for left-back Alex Moreno. Getting closer. Unai Emery also targeting a new winger as a priority this month

If Percy says it is getting closer, it is getting closer

Bit of a goal hanger is Percy. Always there at the back post to knock it in after everyone else has done the hard work.

I wonder if the winger might be Sarr.  Delafeu (dreadful spelling, sorry) still being linked.  But might be injured.

Harsh. He's reliable and doesn't spout bullshit.

Where's our Vinnie Chase '84?

Aye, very strange signing if there is anything in it.

I think it's a sign of emery putting his stamp on the team. He obviously doesn't rate digne that much and the swede is only on loan.

As an aside did I read somewhere that Moreno can also play on the wing?

I don’t know it means he doesn’t rate Digne, Ludwig maybe. The fee doesn’t scream absolute first teamer - he could be competition for Digne.

I don't really want to see people who 'can' play on the wing, I want the finest, shit hot wing wizards known to man.
