After Aragones, after Guiza, Fenerbahce wants to add another sample of Europe with its pink: for the turkish club we talk about Xabi Alonso, also target of Juventus, Liverpool midfielder. The indiscretion was reported inside Studio Sport. Indiscrezioni collected by professionals argue that Juventus would finally turned on Poulsen.

Hahaha.

I can't help but think of media rubbish a few months ago saying Alonso wanted to move away from England to bring up his new-born child. I bet he never envisiged Turkey as his destination. Laughing

Great signing for Fenerbahce if it happens - but come on, Alonso can and should do better (with all due respect). He should be playing in England, Spain or Italy.

No-one is good enough for Liverpool!

I think its a matter of style. Rafa wants Gareth to replace Xabi. Barry is a different player than Alonso - Barry will drive the team forward more, make the simple passes with great accuracy and be more solid defensively, whereas Alonso will dilly-dally with the ball, playing quite patient around the half-way line and occasionally hit those 'eye-of-the-needle' passes that he does (which haven't been so accurate of late), whilst he's been taking too much time on the ball of late and getting caught out quite a bit. Barry's very much on form and Alonso's very much off form. I suppose Benitez thought he could exchange the two and have change left over, but that hasn't been the case.

Is he still wanted by Juve. Someone said that they signed some other player instead.

Yeah they signed Christian Poulsen so it's unlikely they'd be especially interested in Alonso now.

Rafa should keep Alonso in Liverpool. He is a good player with good attitude.
