This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]386553[/split]
Sky Sports understands Liverpool have rejected two offers from Manchester City for defender Daniel Agger.
13M and 16M but should make another offer. Really looks like he's ready to leave. Would be a great signing.
Suprised Barca aren't all over him, he seems perfect for them, great defender and great on the ball.
Bit of a step up from Savic eh?!
Team GB can't live up to its name without including players from all four home nations within its ranks, according to Martin Keown.
The former England and Arsenal defender told MSN that Stuart Pearce should have been forced to include footballers from England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Such a policy could actually have benefitted the side by bringing a broader range of approaches, he added.
"There are too many English players involved" Keown said in an interview at BT House in London. "We have three overage players, so we should have had three players from each nation, because I think there's a lot to be learned from one another."
Though the Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish Football Associations have previously made it clear that they oppose a combined 'TeamGB', for fear of compromising their own national sides, they were prevented from blocking players from participating. However the non-English contingent is made up of just five Welshmen.
Keown added: "The Welsh players have been magnificent; but I would've liked to have seen some Irish bodies in there. We talk about the British Lions, and it's the characters you remember, and the personalities, and I know for one that there's plenty of personality in the Irish and Scottish and it's a shame they weren't involved."
"Olympic football is a little bit unique; I think that it's been seen as an opportunity to gather experience really, and then the overage players are used in sort of a supportive role...which is why I think we missed the point with David Beckham.

It's not so much the handball, it's the little celebration he did in plain view when Gyan missed the PK and then pretty much congratulating himself for it after by saying he owned the Hand of God now.
