Leif 6,006 Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 He'd compliment Luiz well. Both very aggressive but he's much more disciplined and seems to understand the role far more than many players older than him.I don't believe he's particularly injury-prone personally. I think he's just had bad luck with injuries. But if I'm wrong and he is indeed injury prone, from what I've seen of him, he's like a carbon-copy of Vidic... and you don't pass up the chance to sign a 21 year old Vidic From what I understand though there's very little to this rumour and Liverpool are the ones considering a bid.

Toli 977 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 19 m are a bit too much, for a position, we dont really need players in? cant ake play as a CB too? papadopooulos is a good defender and would fit in the EPL, but dont think that he is worth so much money. but there are some pros in him- alredy experienced at a young age- great stature; he is strong and good in arial battles- a leader. even though he is young, he still has the ability to lead a team- aggresiveness. he brings some sort of ruthness in our often kinda weak looking teamcons:- he is quite slow- young, so can make some errors (but thats normal)- expensive- build-up play: technically, he isnt really good. so we would need a CB as a partner, who can build-up a play- injury pronebut it looks like he will go to Liverpool.

Toli 977 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 ^ maybe because he thinks that they have a big history etc? also wont they play in the Europa League?liverpool still has a big name in the football world. especially because of the history, stadium, fans etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Despiadado.Maleante 1,046 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Schalke today qualified for the champions league why move a level down to join Liverpool. Money wise he would probably earn more here if we were truly interested in him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeboii 1,844 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Looks as Liverpool are getting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Just suffered an injury which was first thought to force him to retire. He's recovering in Greece.Either Schalke sell him for a great fee and Liverpool are buying a player already in pieces, or Liverpool see the injury, don't buy him, he recovers with Schalke and we're not affected in the slightest.
