We’re mentioned with some kid named El Hadji Malick Diouf, plays for Slavia Prague. A young left sided player.
Or someone is just taking the piss with us, because of his name.

Signing an El Hadji Diouf and a random Greek striker on loan to a mid-table second tier German side would send parts of this fan base into a level of meltdown not seen since the Chernobyl disaster.

If the nerds have determined that Doak is not quite at the level we need, I’m more than fine with moving him on. Hopefully with some sort of sell on or something to protect our interests, in case he reaches the top level.
If it is a part ex for another player, fine. Hopefully it’s a Prem club and Doak does well. The Bournemouth link with Semenyo is interesting. Not sure how good he is, but if he is one we want, bring it on.
Kerkez is the Bournemouth player I’d like to see at Liverpool, but perhaps they are going to become a bit of a feeder club for us? The Hughes connection strengthens that possibility, and they play good football and have become a tidy Premier League side.

Is there a percentage less than 0%? Because that’s how much belief I have that we want to sign Semenyo.

Smokescreen for Kerkez!

Scott Wilson probably lives in my head on some past glories - I’m not thinking that Liverpool are looking to sign Semenyo but I wouldn’t be surprised if they were looking at Doak.
That said, I’m only waiting for Brighton to put in a bid for Doak. If that happens, I’ll say we should definitely keep him.

Young players have a window to establish themselves, and I have a sense with Doak that he might have missed it.
He has had some misfortune with injuries, but he also had a few chances in pre-seasons that he just didn’t take.
This isn’t to say there isn’t a career for him, or even that he can’t rebuild and play at a very high level indeed. But it won’t be here.
The problem for youngsters is that it’s not only the players older than them they have to dislodged. They are also being put under pressure from the lads who are younger.
Unfortunately for Doak, younger lads like Ngumoha and Danns are now further up the pecking order.

He’s only 19, turning 20. It’s a bit harsh to say that his time here has passed, no?
Was getting reviews like this only a month ago!
Some people are just desperate for any kind of transfer activity it seems.
