Stories coming out of France that we have agreed a deal with Lyon to sign captain Nabil Fékir. Apparently Houllier held the negations with Liverpool and a €70 million deal has been agreed. The contract is 5 years.

Don't know how true this is and I have to be honest never seen the guy play. Can anyone confirm this and what Fékir is like?

This guy is a more powerful version of Coutinho, hope the reports are accurate, we need quality and strength in depth to compete at the highest level.

I'd be happy if we signed him but these stories just seem like more idle gossip. No concrete source, 2 reports from Canal+ and RMC, a denial by Aulas. I doubt anything has been agreed. I hope I'm wrong though.

Why would Houllier be doing the negotiations?

Ed002 I know you have suffered a lot of unfair and ridiculous abuse of late from the as you would rightly put it gilfnards of this site but if you could answer me this one question please, is there any genuine substance to this story? Any response would be greatly appreciated but I would also understand if you chose not to answer. Thanks mate.

{Ed002's Note - There is no deal for Fekir GBB.}

Jonesred - I've watched a couple of Lyon's games this season. Fekir is moderately fast, has a low center of gravity so he turns and pivots really well, and dribbles well too in tight places. Very technical type of player who can pass and kick in a curling free kick. What I really like about him is that he always looks to take on his man and beat him. A lefty who plays mostly on the left side of midfield, even though he roams around midfield.
