The following have gone directly from Liverpool to United:
Aug 1912 Tom Chorlton (Full Back)
Sep 1920 Tom Miller (Forward) £2000
Feb 1929 Tommy Reid (Forward)
Jan 1938 Ted Savage (Half-Back)
Nov 1938 Allenby Chilton (Half-Back)

The following have gone directly from United to Liverpool:
Nov 1913 John Sheldon (Forward)
May 1921 Fred Hopkin (Forward)
Feb 1954 Tommy McNulty (Full-Back) £7000
Apr 1964 Phil Chisnall (Forward) £25,000

As you can see, it is a select few.
Apart from Paul Ince I cannot think of any others to play for both
clubs. John Gidman and Ted MacDougall were
on Liverpools books but did not make the first team.

It would seem united don't stand much chance then, we probably haven't got the money anyway.

As for Gerrard, something is obviously amiss between him and the club, Liverpool have offered him £100,00 0 per week which is more than Chelsea are offering, so maybe Real Madrid are favourites :shrug:

Wigan to Forest seems to be the vogue at the moment.

First Nicky Eaden then Ian Breckin today...

Gerrard can get fooked!! No man is bigger than the club, my loyalty is with Liverpool :) Always has been even when Fowler/McManaman/Owen left, I think we'll be fine. :)

Yeah, I'd love £100k a year and he's turned that down for a week!

Too big for his boots methinks. Send him to the Megson boot camp :D

Looks like he changed his mind, wonder how much that cost Liverpool?

Think it's about time all football clubs had their wages capped, if players are good enough to demand large fees then they are good enough to get big private sponsorship/ advertising deals.

Chelsea were prepared to pay ;) Gotta wonder what incentive he was given to stay?

Well he was being a clive hunt asking for over 100k a week to kick a ball around.

As for the Forest -- Wigan connection... Eaden, Breckin, now Gino Padula... at last we (may) have a half-decent left back.

Bet some scouser nicked his wheel trims and held them to ransom till he decided to stay. :rofl:

think Gerrard wanted to move abroad so when no one else went in from him he's changed his mind

don't think there was any problem with him getting the wages he wanted just the fee for the club

100k a week is obscene though.. what with live8 and that going on imagine the good they could do if this money went to people who really needed it

Ahem http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...&postcount=277
;) By all accounts it was just a "misunderstanding" and Gerrard didn't think Liverpool really wanted him to stay :erm:

"I guess after winning the Champions League in Istanbul I thought I knew where we were going but he clearly thought for whatever reason that the club wasn't as enthusiastic about keeping him as we might have been. He was anxious.

"There were one or two issues with the contract which he took to mean a lack of enthusiasm on our part, which it wasn't. He understands that now.
