LIVERPOOL have signed up a Danish starlet to their ranks.
Apparently, we've beaten a host of top European clubs to the signature of 17-year-old striker Nikola Saric.
Early indications show he's got a big box of tricks.

I was giving some thought to this six-plus-five foreigner restriction proposal put forward by UEFA a few weeks back.
Thank God's it's fallen by the wayside. Just how would Liverpool fare if that scenario was introduced?
How would we have lined up? And what impact would it have on the English game?

CH, ch, ch, check this out!
It's Ryan Babel in some sort of rap/hip hop music video, rapping himself too.
First Degen and his catalogue modelling, now Ryan on the decks. It's all a bit of a concern.

So, the Norwegian is on his way to Roma.
He's taken some stick of late, but looking at seven years in total at Liverpool, he's been a bloody good servant.
Let's have a think over his Reds career.

Trawling the web the other day, I found this rather worrying assessment of the Swiss full back from a Dortmund fan.
Entitled Thank you Liverpool, they're hardly crying to see him go.
Doesn't bode well.....Another Josemi you reckon?

THE Newcastle winger James Milner is the latest potential signing to be linked to Liverpool.
If you've believe what you read in The Telegraph(!!), the deal is nearing completion.
Is this the kind of positive news we wanted to hear?

SO, what do you reckon about Euro 2008 so far?
With England's non-participation, there's not a great deal to do other than support Spain and see how Liverpool players are faring in the tournament.
And weigh up the candidacy of prospective buys to the club - if we have more than a couple of sovs to rub together this summer, that is.

News of another protest against the club's American owners on Sunday.
It seems that the Hicks ownership debate has gone off the agenda for the last few weeks, hence the reason behind SOS's public showing over the weekend.
Decent turn out with around 250 at the Shankly Gates. Lots of beer and sun afterwards made it a good day for all concerned....

IT'S often been a gripe among some of our rival fans that the majority of TV pundits or co-commentators are ex-Reds.
For me, all it shows is that when it comes to understanding the whys and wherefores of the beautiful game,
there's nobody better to turn to than a bunch of highly decorated former Liverpool players.
Still, not every Kopite takes too kindly to past players taking their comfy seat in the studio, especially when they have occasion to debate their old employers.
Everyone's got a favourite, one they loath, so here's a rundown of some past Reds now on our screens and their pros and cons.
