...for around 3 million pounds.

He's a useful player, not quite international standard and therefore struggled at Liverpool but a good player none the less. I don't why people try to play him out left though.

I guess El Tel wants lots of yes men around him so he's signing all his old Spurs cronies. Anderton next I suppose.

Lets hope Barmby gets some more PT at Leeds.

Depends where they play him. He won't oust Kewell from the left side but may well be seen as Bowyers replacement on the right. Dacourt, Johnson, Bakke et al will be central midfielders.

What is up with Bowyers? Are Leeds really ready to let him walk at the end of the year on a free? Is he simply demanding way too much in terms of $$$?

[Native Aztexan]

I don't know what Bowyers wants right now since the Liverpool deal fell though. I guess he stays on unless sometime happens. TV set the deadline on January for him.

I have it on good authority that Leeds aren't as keen to keep Bowyer as some might like to think.
It's not necessarily about the $$$, more to do with the naughty business that he and also Woodgate were involved in.
He's a bit of a hot potato.

Liverpool's official site confirms the details so far:

He's a complete thug and a moron. Who on earth would get drunk in Leeds City centre when they play for Leeds and then get in a fight. Have drink driving issues, training ground bust ups, lack of respect for the manager and completely off days on the park.

On several occasions.

I have no sympathy if his career takes a nose dive.
I hope for his sake it doesn't but to be given his talent, get a job with one of the top teams in one of the top leagues in the world, and then act like he has/does, it just beggars belief.

As much as some people might not like it or like to admit to it, footballers are role models to a huge number of children. Especially those who play for high profile teams and who had just about made the England setup.

Grrrr..
