View Full Version : Jovanovic wants out

Milan Jovanovic is just desperate to end his Anfield nightmare after just one season.

The Serbia international has not featured since February 12 against Wigan and won the last of his five Premier League starts in the defeat at Blackpool in mid-January.

Those are the only two matches the 30-year-old has featured in since Kenny Dalglish took over as manager from Roy Hodgson in early January.

Having been signed on a free transfer by Rafael Benitez in the summer, Jovanovic then saw the Spaniard leave Anfield before he even arrived at the club.


And the former Standard Liege player admits he is lonely in England and feels the changes of manager have not helped his cause.

"If I would move to Italy or Germany I would be happier - my life would be nicer," he told Sportske.

"In Belgium, I was living in an area where there were so many people from Serbia and my life was different, more dynamic.

"Liverpool is such a different place. I'm here alone, without anybody. I'm just a very lonely stranger.

"If I wouldn't have my wife and my kids, I just couldn't speak Serbian with anybody.

"Liverpool is a club which you can't refuse; my only regret is that the coach who brought me to Anfield left the club before my arrival.

"If Benitez would have stayed at Liverpool I believe everything would be different for me.

"There were 15 other clubs which followed me but I chose Liverpool and made a mistake."

He will be shipped out in summer if he doesn't know it already.

I wouldn't worry about it, Milan. We'll be glad to see you gone as well.

I'm just hoping that we can get a big enough fee to repay the signing on fee and wages we've paid you for doing absolutely nothing.

I Don't have anything against the guy....actually feel a bit sorry for him. He got caught up in the club in one of our worst times. He wasn't good enough when he came to us but was seen as an option being a free......the same goes for most of our other deadwood in the team. Who in there right mind would turn down Liverpool??? Majority were all the outcome of transfer fund restaints (due to H+G being tight cunts)....Hope he finds himself a good place elsewhere next season.

A shoestring acquisition made at a time when whe didn't have a pot to piss in. He's looked quite capable in glimpses but fucking useless most of the time. He's always looked keen enough though.

For an experienced international I'd rank him below Voronin in terms of skill. We have young lads playing their first first team games and have looked far more capable and composed so I for one won't miss him.

Here's an idea, if you want to meet Serbian people, try playing in Serbia. Fucking man up, learn the lingo, make friends and get on with it.

bit harsh to say hes fucking shit

our entire squad was exactly that until kenny took over wasnt it ?

if he's not performing in training or whatever to get a chance under kenny fair enough, but people seem quick to forget how a bit of confidence and faith from your manager can turn you from being fucking shit to a decent player in quite a short space of time

see skrtel/spearing etc




(does irritate me all that poor lonely little me nonsense though)

Seems like a decent guy so won't diss him too much but he just did nothing on the pitch but run with the ball like a headless chicken and then give it away.
Similar to Babel he has some ability and pace but absolutely no clue what to do with it.

a decent left foot?

brings very little to the table. Instead of rolling the sleeves up and working hard he has moaned to the press which must be staged as he's hardly an important player.

In a settled , confident team he may well have done himself justice. Just never really got going at all but he's been no worse than Joe Cole in all honesty.

bye bye Voronin mark 2.

Whilst I feel a bit sorry for him in terms of being given a chance, what was he expecting?? to say he's got no one to speak Serbian with is a fucking joke - you go to another country you have to play by their rules - is he not learning english then??

Think if he leaves it'll be for the best.

his just occupying a squad position that could be given to a young player, everyone sat on the bench has to be imo a big step above a young reservist or your just pissing wages away.

I remember thinking this moment could kickstart his liverpool career. In reality it more or less ended it...

Anyone who wants to leave Liverpool has to be given all kinds of shit?

Fucking disrespectful jokes, have a word with yourselves.

He should have left in Janaury when he was given the chance. Poor lad must be demoralised seeing Maxi then a CM in his place though

Wasn't there a 6 Million offer for him from Wolfsburg? We should have sold him at that time. I doubt if we'll get that sort of money for him now.

They think if they say it in a foreign tongue, the British press will never get wind of it, cos der all dead tick like.

Well at least he is not prepared to take his salary and sit on the bench.. will give him that.

And may be he knows he is not in Kenny's plans and not good enough.. he is doing the right thing if thats the case.

He's never going to get a game up front which is his proper position.

If a decent offer comes in let him go by all means.

If he did say all that stuff about being lonely and so on I pity his lack of imagination on £XXgrand per week. He could fly a couple of mates over for a start.

21st April 2011, 05:24 PM
Nothing against the guy.

Came at a bad time, maybe isn't of Liverpool quality, but who would turn down Liverpool?

He's not sitting on his ass milking his wages, he wants to play, we're not playing him and his Mum doesn't talk nasty about us on twitter.

Hope he gets a move which suits him.

I find it hard to believe there are no Serbs knocking about the place, has he had a decent look down the back of Bold St or up by the Cathedral?

Technically he is OK. Just lacks a lot of pace in the fast premier league.

Hope your future works out Milan, but don't go crying to the papers.
