Hey dear ed, have there been any updates on Kovacic since "move on" and "bid rejected"? I ask this before Inter seem to be preparing a new batch of arrivals, while there haven't been any significant exits for them. If - HIGHLY theorietically - Liverpool manage to move some of the available players along, could they go back to that deal?
In an unrelated to Liverpool note, any news on where Hernanes and Shakiri would end up?
Cheers!
{Ed002's Note - Vuksan has said that no acceptable offers were made by any club and that Inter would not be tempted by the exchange offered by Barcelona nor the offer from Liverpool. He also said that Real Madrid made an enquiry but Kovacic wants to stay at Inter. He took a swipe at the Italian media for repeatedly saying agreements had been reached with clubs when it had not. Inter continue to look to sell players with Guarin looking like he will be next to leave. There is nothing on Hernanes and Shaqiri has a number of clubs interested including a couple of EPL sides.}

Ed I have done your head in about a thousand times this window about Kovacic.
But and here goes.
You gave us some fabulous inside information ahead of time that we had a bid accepted but unfortunately couldn't agree a payment deal.
Now my question is - Kovacic will stay 100% now and it's a shame because he is playing for them exactly what wr needed him to do for us - isn't there another target for that position? or is there a plan you have heard of from the coaches etx that they will play a current player in that position or let someone try and stake a claim ie Allen, Cab, job??
Thanks ed
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool will not adapt to play like they would with a player that is not in the side.}
{Ed001's Note - I can't remember on Swansea, I have said what I knew about him with regards to Swansea a while back, but can't remember what it was. I don't have a database like Ed002 to check, but it was at least a week ago anyway, so probably out of date info by now. Leicester are certainly interested now Cambiasso has decided to leave.}
