Would love to see Babel at Blues, real quality footballer, who would be desperate to do well to ensure his place in Dutch World Cup squad.

due to the lads so far underachievements in the prem league (for whatever reasons) i reckon we can snap him up for 5 million and yes - he would come, all the lad is looking for is 1st team football.

This is really getting exciting and I would love to get him.

At this price there won't be too many bidders as few clubs have big money currently.

So Liverpool want their money back? For a player who has never setteld or started 2 consecutive games for the club?

Are they having a laff?

A starting bid 0f 8 Million is more than reasonable, but I wouldn't go over 10 mill.

He's got something, but is unproven in the premier league.

I've always felt sorry for Babel at Liverpool. He's a lad with a lot of talent and I don't think the Liverpool fans or management have been that sympathetic with the needs of the player. Moving to a different country at the age of 20 with the weight of such a large transfer fee on his head was difficult for him at first, but I've seen signs of genuine improvement out of him.

By the age of 23, to have amassed forty caps for your country is indicative of what stage Babel can excel at and I think for around £9-10m, he'd be a top signing.

Im undecided on Babel. My main worry is that he seems a bit of a moaner, and im not sure he is the sort of player that will be chasing down lost causes or throwing himself in fromt of the ball.

i hope i am wrong, and he does have potential, but remember we dont want to upset team spirit with players who see us as a stepping stone to bigger clubs

he would be a great signing... I always thought that he didn't quite fit in at liverpool, but obviously had something to have made 40 + caps for his country!!

I heard from a source very close to the club last week that this deal is all agreed but the player wanted a larger signing on fee right at the last minute. The source said they expected to negotiate the signing on fee down a bit but fully expected this deal to go through.
I was dying to post but didn't want to betray the source, as it now seems to be in the press there's no harm. I would add that the souce is at a very high level within the club.
Babel will be a Blues player soon.

It makes you think it's got a bit more substance to it. Here's hoping.

I would rather have Boyd - Bables done bu**er all at Liverpool and his off field behavior has hardly won him plaudits. Not a great goal record and what we need is a proven goal scorer!

And they grow on trees. I don't think we're (if true) signing Babel as the proven goalscorer. Something tells me that AMc will know that he's not that.

I just hope that they are swift in their transfer dealings, and get the People they want in. We have some big games such as Man Utd etc coming in so the sooner the better imo.

Never rated Babel and on the liverpool forums they do not rate him at all, they are gagging for us to offer 8 million

I dont understand how anyone can not rate Babbel, fair enough liverpool fans might not because in champions league games he has not lived up to their expectations but that is the champions league, if he was at a side like ours he would stick out like a sore thumb. He has far more ability than milner, n'zogbia, downing etc and is class. dont think beacuse he is not good enough for liverpool that he wouldnt be good enough for us.
