I decided I like yossi. He's a nice guy and if he's a squad player and comes on and contributes in a few games, which he is capable of, he's a good signing. You can't buy much for 5 odd million in footballing terms this time and I think he'll do okay. At least we don't have any high expectations, we can only be pleasantly surprised. GOOD TIMES!!!!

He's just in South Africa for the World Cup but the papers have pages to fill.

12 mil! We should be so lucky.

I can't see it catching on....

Terminator X what is your deal mate? You just had a pop at cameron and you had a pop at someone else earlier on in a benayoun thread. To be fair I don't see why you didn't get the same punishment after you said "i would rather benayoun be killed than see him get the number 10 shirt." I remember you making similar comments regarding ballack dying after one of the games last season. You had a pop at someone in another thread earlier on as well. So I don't think you're the one to be going on a moral crusade. I don't think there's any reason to say something racist, if you say something the way he said it which wasn't jokey or ironic at all then you're saying it because you think it'll make you look cool then you're a tosser and if you're saying it for other reasons then those reasons must be you're racist, thus you're a tosser.

Ash + £10 mil for Ramos will be a good deal, if we can somehow blag one of their players maybe it won't be SUCH a bad idea. I really don't want to lose him though I still maintain he is the best LB in the world, but he'll be 30 odd next year won't he?

Great shout. Some of the flippant comments show a total disrespect for other cultures and religions.

Ah well what's done is done, may as well give him our full support and backing. Didn't want it to happen but you can only be pleasantly surprised with low expectations and 6 million is hardly a lot of money these days in the transfer market, who knows he might the platform upon which Kakuta and people get their chance to shine.

I'll tell you now this kid is a bit of a future star. This is exactly the kind of signing we should be making -- I love the idea of sending him off on loan for a season to west ham as well to get valuable first team experience bit like what we did with alex and are doing with delac. If you haven't seen this kid go and look at some videos.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/peterborough_united/8779362.stm Shame but I'm not sure he was up to or would have ever been up to premier league standards. Still a shame to see him go.

This is a fucking joke signing.. Maybe a prolonged april fools joke?!

I really want this guy!

We're a fucking joke of a club, this young talented player gave us a come-and-get-me and we let him join Man Shitty. We're going to end up signing no-one again and playing with a team of pensioners and then have a massive worry next summer when we get raped on prices because teams know we HAVE to sign people. Fucking ridiculous, wouldn't be surprised if we sign benayoun and no-one else. Fucking joke.

Don't get me wrong I love Ivanovic he's one of my favourite players, but he's not a better crosser than Bosingwa, Bosingwa is a better attacking full back by a long distance!

Yeah we pissed Real Madrid and the agents off by putting Robinho's shirt online before he'd been officially announced as a Chelsea player so they pulled the plug.

Better crosser? Please be serious mate.

Juan Sebastian Veron.

Would rather have Ozil.

"Tribalfootball" - nuff said.

You know I think a young-ish centre back wouldn't be THAT bad an addition. Think about it, Ivanovic we have yes, but Terry and Carvalho are getting on a bit, Bruma is very good but very young still, a 23 year old has 5 years on him, so an ivanovic luiz partnership could be the successors to terry carvalho.

Not going to happen. I can't see us signing anyone that we should be signing.

We'd be mad not to buy him now, he's basically said come and get me.

And so another twist.... http://www.goal.com/en/news/9/england/2010/06/16/1978830/liverpool-dismiss-claims-that-yossi-benayoun-is-set-to-move
