唐宁和亚当的转会再次临近
7月6日 by Jim Boardman
利物浦收购维拉的唐宁的最新进展情况已经被媒体彻夜报道。今晨，据说利物浦已经向这位前米堡球员开出1500万英镑的报价。一些报道说，这是之前1200万英镑报价的跟进。
维拉两年前花了1200万英镑签下了唐宁，并坚持认为他的身价在此之后有了飞速提升，以此暗示要签走唐宁至少得出2000万镑。现在唐宁还有两年合同在身，维拉想和他谈谈续约的问题，但他的经纪人（同时也是卡拉和杰队的经纪人）表示，唐宁希望有更开放的选择。
阿森纳也表现出了签下唐宁的兴趣，但维拉看到唐宁更可能去安菲尔德，所以认为阿森纳并不能把利物浦拖到竞价的地步。大家普遍认为利物浦会提出更高的报价，有可能高达1800万镑，但如果维拉连这个报价都要拒的话，那么唐宁肯定需要通过提交转会申请来向俱乐部强调事态的严重性了。维拉的球员和工作人员将在下周归队备战新赛季
一些报道也声称维拉主帅麦克莱士很希望将恩戈格放进这笔交易，但两家俱乐部在这名前锋的身价问题上存在一定程度的分歧
现在已经不可避免的产生了对这名这个月年满27的唐宁的身价的怀疑，就像之前对年轻球员亨德森1600万镑身价的不满和闲言碎语一样。利物浦不提价购买维克汉姆和克里希的决定也同样产生了相当程度的怨言，更不用提那些关于利物浦根本没钱的恐慌。
事实上，利物浦的确是有钱花的（译者注：兔斯基泪流满面牛气握拳啊！我军神马时候有这一天啊！），尽管1月份以来已经花掉了超过七千万镑（其中一部分源于卖托雷斯的收入）。最近对菲尔琼斯的2200万镑的报价被拒绝，对唐宁的也是。如果布莱克浦放弃对亚当900万镑的要价，而同意这名只想去利物浦而且只有一年合同在身的球员离开的话，那么利物浦也还得出钱买他啊。

截止今天，两家俱乐部就亚当转会的事务即将达成协议，即使事情的进展并不是很顺利。很可能亚当的转会会在唐宁之前完成，甚至就在本周（译者注：汗……已经完成了……）。但每次有可能出现一次突破性进展时，事情总是停留在原先的缓慢进程上（译者注：真理啊！）。
提到进展不顺利的事情，利物浦另一项重大任务就是清洗一些不太靠谱也没什么转会价值的海外球员。没什么必要减低周薪——而且也不仅仅是这些高新又不怎么出场的海外球员——毕竟我们必须保证周薪必须花在对球队有利的球员身上。情况改善之前，新的签约额度必须有一定的限制。
约万就是利物浦迫不及待想清洗的球员之一。去年夏天他以所谓的“免费球员”转会至利物浦，原本这笔签约应该是3年合同，并且第一年每周价值12万镑，后两年每周值6万镑的。这样的一笔合同对一个2013年就年满32岁的球员来说有着125万镑的价值。他上赛季联赛只出场了10次，而且更多是在国王上任之前。已确信球队已经告诉他，他可以免费离开了。对利物浦来说不幸的是，他不太可能以同样的待遇找到另一家俱乐部效力，利物浦可能还得给他一些补偿来把他清洗掉。
无论利物浦对新球员给多高的薪酬，这些价钱都代表着利物浦对球员们的价值期望。球队也许可以比其他球队提出更高的价来买得一名球员，或者比其他球员更早退出竞价，但所有的球队都对这名球员有球队自身对他个人的独特要求和期许。这是换老板以来的第一次夏季转会窗口，也是新技术总监和“新”教练（译者注：嘿嘿我喜欢这个引号）上任以来的第一次。更重要的是，这次转会全程都在欧足联财政公平竞争的规则监督下进行。
这些规则将在2012年结束的财政年的基础上被官方测评，也就是说，对利物浦而言，从今年8月1日起开始实行（译者注：具体情况详见网站原文链接，我也不知道是咋回事儿）。不遵守规定的俱乐部将被吊销欧足联成员资格，并不能参加欧洲赛事。
这些规则使资助清洗乔科尔或约万这样的球员变得困难起来，长远来看，也会使球员以相似的方式给球队增加负担的可能性下降。
对利物浦而言，这是他们未来规划的重要部分，这意味着，无论他们怎么签人，他们必须对1800万镑的唐宁或近1600万镑的亨德森在俱乐部体现出的价值有足够的信心。（也就是说），如果和利物浦有相当紧密联系的玛塔，最终未能成为红军的一员，那么这就应该意味着他对红军的价值低于为他开出的价码，即超过2000万镑。

An agreement between the two clubs for Adam is moving closer by the day, even if at times that movement is at the kind of rates geologists talk about when discussing continental drift. There is a sense that it could be done before the Downing deal, even this week, but every time there seems to be a breakthrough the move then continues at the previous slow pace.
On the topic of continental drift, Liverpool’s other big task is to offload some of the overseas players that haven’t worked out and have low transfer values alongside those lucrative contracts they are running down. There’s not so much a need to reduce the wage bill – and it’s not just overseas players who are well paid and rarely used – as to ensure the wage bill is being spent on players who have value to the club. New signings will be restricted to a certain extent until that situation is addressed.
Milan Jovanovic is one of the players that Liverpool are desperate to offload. Signed on a so-called “free transfer” last summer, that deal is understood to have been for three years and worth £120,000 per week for the first 12 months and £60,000 per week for the final two years. That contract is worth £12.5m to the player who will be 32 when it runs out in 2013. He made just 10 league appearances last season, most before Kenny Dalglish arrived, and the club are now believed to have told him he can leave for free. Unfortunately for Liverpool he is unlikely to get a deal on similar terms and the Reds may yet have to pay him some compensation to move on.
Whatever fees Liverpool ultimately pay for their new players, those fees represent the value that Liverpool place on those players. The club may well pay more than other clubs would pay for one player, or drop out of the bidding earlier than other clubs for the next player, but all clubs have their own individual requirements and priorities. This is the first summer transfer window under new ownership and also the first one under the control of a new Director of Football and a “new” manager. On top of that it’s a summer where spending will be done with a keen eye on UEFA’s Financial Fair Play regulations.
Those new regulations officially begin to be assessed based on the financial year ending in 2012, which in Liverpool’s case begins on August 1st of this year. (For more information on why those regulations are already impacting transfer business see the excellent in-depth analysis from Daniel Geey – “UEFA Financial Fair Play Rules: a difficult balancing act?” .) Clubs who don’t adhere to them may find themselves without a UEFA licence and therefore unable to play in Europe.
These regulations make it more difficult to subsidise the offloading of players like Jovanovic or Joe Cole but should, in the long term, make it less likely that clubs will allow themselves to be saddled with players in a similar way.
For Liverpool it’s a key part of their planning for the coming years meaning that, however they are working it out, they must feel confident that signings like Downing for up to £18m and Henderson for around £16m will represent good value. If Juan Mata, linked with Liverpool more strongly by some than others, isn’t eventually the subject of a bid from the Reds then it would suggest his worth to the Reds is less than what he would cost, which is likely to be anywhere north of £20m.

高于一千五百就别买了！花那么多钱不如去撞马塔。。。
