Not really, hes probably a similar standard.

Henderson plays the ball forward more and had 3x the amount of assists of Kovacic.

Scored 1 goal more last year and had more shots on target.

Henderson contributes much more defensively too.

Then again Kovacic is much better running with the ball.

All in a 'stronger league'.

I know stats don't really say everything but I think it shows Kovacic isn't really any better at least.

Would be a good buy for liverpool but I wouldn't spend a huge amount on him

(Milner also racks up similar stats to these two aswell)

Kovacic is a quality player, he was finding his feet with Mazzarri but he was sacked and Mancini misused him big time. Not to forget Inter players are more static than any other players and their don't have a proper game plan.

For example:

Kovacic wins in all dept except assists. I have watched plenty of Inter games and it's so easy to see why Kovacic is so highly rated.

To be fair that link just points out that he didn't do a great deal better than Henderson going off those stats haha. 8ish games difference tho.

Not 20 plus millions worth better. Though I do like Kovacic maybe I try not too because hes an Inter player and I'm an AC fan :P

How much would you pay Sunil?

He was my dream signing ever since Inter signed him. His game style is very similar to Iniesta but big difference in ability though.

Thing is Inter fans will riot if Kovacic is sold and if he sold just for 20 Million then Inter management is in big trouble.

I wanted him at ManUtd from long time and I would say I wouldn't mind ManUtd paying 30 Million pounds for him.

Inter always seem to buy the players I like, which winds me up!

Hernanes and M'villa two main ones, although M'villa has been pretty **** for them I was envious at the time of signing. Same with Shaquiri though he hasn't done too badly, just rarely starts.

I do think Kovacic would do well at in the Prem if he can adjust to the pace of play

You should be glad that Milan didn't waste money on M'Vila and Hernanes :P
 
A stat I've just seen..

Simon Mignolet (2) dribbled past more players than Rickie Lambert (1) last season. haha!
 
Adriano set to lave Barca apparently, and were interested.

I'm a massive fan of him personally, and would love him at the club.
 
Carlos Baccas agent:

"The second is to find a good team with a good project. Before he went to Chile, we wrote down a list of clubs that fit that description and Liverpool was on that list.
"The third question is the contract. He has a good salary in Sevilla but we know how much clubs in England can pay."

Suppose United would be on that list too if they bid...

One for Scouse!

Apparently we've bid for that Zappacosta kid you like too

Can Clyne play on the left because he's very right footed and has been exclusively on the right ha ha?

No doubt we're gonna' continue to get linked with everyman and his dog as always. Just hope the apparent new thought going into these moves continues.

The window to date feels the best since Houllier signed Smicer, Hyypia, Henchoz and co back in what, 2000 or so?

Would be a great signing and for a small fee I would imagine. Moreno and Adriano with Enrique leaving

Thats all good and dandy but trying to find a buyer for Jose "Mr social media" Enrique is going to be well hard...
 
I'd honestly forgotten Enrique was still here.

Sighs, another stupid contract we still can't move.

I dont think it will be actually... He is not a bad player. Not Liverpool standard, but a lower Prem team would improve with him, IMO

We gave him a bumper contract aint nobody gonna pay him what his on. Were just going to have to cut our losses when his contract is up next year. Until then if anyone wants to keep up with him they can just follow his instagram. He makes podolski look like a model professional.

That's true.. Wages will be the problem

I don't get the criticism he gets on social media though. He has a life outside of football, particularly when he is not needed for his club

Nothing wrong with what he is doing, but sometimes you have to use your head and THINK in certain situations. After the united loss this idiot posts on instagram something about him and his missus i forgot. He got a massive backlash from supporters, which could have been avoided.
 
Ralph Coates to Sunderland for £ 4 million.

Made up to get the bulk back on him after 4 nothing years. Good technical defender who likes a tattle. But he has zero pace. Which is a prerequisite here. Would of been better suited going to Italy or Spain IMHO, but good luck to him all the same going forward.

Hopefully the first of MANY departures.
