Forget you, Inter! – is Mascherano off to Barcelona?

Masch and Mess – best buds

Mascherano and Messi

If you’re going to change jobs, it’s always handy to have friends in high places working on your behalf. By which we don’t mean God. It’s not that kind of site.

No, not God – Lionel Messi.

The word on the street is that Messi has been whispering in Pep Guardiola’s ear whilst he sleeps, leaving subliminal messages about Javier Mascherano – and it’s worked.

As reported in The Daily Mail, with Inter looking unlikely to make a move, Mascherano will now be heading off to the land of bull fighting, tasty oranges, and lunches which involve a minimum of ten bite size dishes, when all you really want is a pizza.

And all for just a few million quid, and a man with spaghetti where legs should be, who goes by the name of Hleb.

Liverpool fans, how do you feel about this?

    mascherano and hleb are 2 totally different players….atleast if mascherano does leave we have poulsen to cover now so this could be a good swap for liverpool. i think hleb would be a good addition to the liverpool squad as he adds to the attacking options.

    Hleb can sit next to Ryan Babel on the bench.

    i agree, but he will be a good impact player.

    I think Masch is a world class player, I’m sad to see him go.

    Didn’t they ban bullfighting in Catalonia?

    Anyway, the rich get richer (and poorer, all at the same time).

    No Hleb just 25 to 30 million pounds yes pounds not euro’s. Liverpool do not want barcelona’s cast offs.

    I wouldn’t be happy if it is the 15m + Hleb deal that is being quoted in the media. Think we are all expecting Masch to leave so if he does we would at least want 25m – 30m for him, then we can get what we really need … another class striker.
