In a fascinating interview following the signing of Jordan Henderson, Director of Football Damien Comolli spoke to Liverpoolfc.tv about how good the 20-year-old can become, our transfer strategy this summer and the future of David Ngog.

以下是Comolli对于Henderosn的转会以及N'gog未来的说明。 

The Frenchman also revealed what was said between Henderson and Kenny Dalglish with regards first-team opportunities, and explains why he personally spoke to Steven Gerrard ahead of any potential move for the midfielder.

Comoli也表示和国王及Henderson间提到了他在一军的机会，同时也解释了为什么他在选择任何潜在的中场球员时会先会见杰队。

There has been a lot of talk about this transfer over the last few days and about potential fees. How pleased are you that it's finally done?

过去几天，对于这个转会的价钱有许多的传闻，你有多高兴这个交易终于完成了呢？

I'm very pleased because he was one of the targets we had and when you get your first target it's always a good sign because you think the others will come through as well. We are very, very pleased. He has got all the skills technically that we needed. He's good with the ball, he's creative, he's got good passing, he's physically very good. That's everything we wanted in a midfielder and he's versatile as well. For Kenny he will be the player we wanted. On the fee, I've read and heard a lot of things. There was a lot of speculation on how much we would pay for Jordan and none of the figures I've seen are correct so far. We've paid a price that we are comfortable with, otherwise we would not have done the deal.

我非常高兴他是我们的目标之一，而第一笔交易总是很好的，因为你也会想到接下来有可能会到来的人。我们非常非常高兴(看得出来XD)，他有著我们所需要的所有技巧，他脚下功夫十足，有创造力也有很好的传球，同时身体条件也很好，这是我们想要的多才多艺中场型球员，对Kenny来说，他会是我们要的球员。至于费用方面，我听到了很多关于我们会付多少钱的猜测，但我听到的没有一个数字是对的(难不成是20M又1块之类的XD)，我们付了一个我们自己很满意的价钱，要不然也不会成交的。

你有跟Jordan长谈过吗？你有信心他的心态上足够使他成为一个伟大的利物浦球员吗？

Definitely. It is very difficult to believe you are talking to a 20-year-old. You think you're talking to a 25-year-old. He's very passionate about football, very committed, a top professional. He's the type of player who'll stay behind after training and do extra work. When you talk to him it's not about money or anything related to off the pitch. Everything is on the pitch: where am I going to play, have I got a chance to play, where can I develop most as a player. Kenny and I were very impressed with that and his commitment and passion for the game.

这是毫无疑问的。你很难相信你是在跟一个20岁的小伙子聊天，你会认为他大概已经25岁了(有差吗XD)，他对足球很热衷，且蓄势待发，十足的职业球员。他是那种会自己留下来额外训练的球员，当你跟他讨论时，这一切不是关于钱，也不是任何跟球场上无关的事，全部都关注在场上的事：我将在哪比赛、我有没有机会上场、哪里可以使我得到最大的发展。Kenny和我都对于他的热情和他的承诺感到印象深刻。

He's only 20-years-old and people talk about his potential but do you see him as a player for now, someone who can slot straight into the team?

他才20岁而已，而人们正谈论著他的潜力，但你是否把他视为一个即战力？

Oh yes, he is definitely a player for now. Obviously it's up to Kenny to decide but we see him as a player for now. In all the talks Kenny had with him he said, 'If you come you will be very, very, very much a part of my plans.' We know we are building for the future, a bit like with Luis and Andy in January, but we are also signing a player who is going to be effective from day one.

那当然，他现在绝对是个即战力。当然这也要看Kenny的决定，不过我们现在都把他视为一个随时能上场的球员。在会谈上，Kenny对他说：如果你过来，你将会是我计划里一个非常非常非常重要的一部分。我们都知道我们在建立球队的未来，像是1月时引进了苏苏和Carroll，同时我们也想签下一个从第一天就充满著影响力的球员。

He's only going to blossom playing next to players like Steven Gerrard, isn't he?

他将会在像杰队之类的队员旁学习并且大鸣大放对吧？

Absolutely. I think that was a key factor for him. I spoke to Stevie about Jordan before we signed him. Stevie was very positive because obviously they have been together in the England camp. I know Jordan really appreciated the fact he was able to play next to Stevie with England. He will learn from players like Jamie Carragher or Stevie or Dirk Kuyt. I think he looked into the history of the club as well.

完全正确。我想对他来说这会是一个关键。我和包子在签下Jordan之前曾讨论过他。包子对他有非常正面的评价，因为他们曾经在国家队的训练营相处过。我知道Jordan非常珍惜在国家队时能够在包子旁学习。他将会向其他的球员学习，像副队、包子或阿靠。我想他也会研究球队的历史。

How good can he become?

他会变得多好？

That's so difficult to say. I don't know. He's only 20-years-old but he's already played for England, a full international, and that's a massive achievement. What he will be, we don't know - but we know he's already a very good player. We think he's going to be a top player and that's all that matters. We don't want any negative pressure around him. We just want him to come and give us the qualities and skills that he's got, and to enjoy his football.

这很难说，我也不知道。他才20岁就已经为国家队效力过，完整的国家队资历，这是一个很大的成就。他会变成怎么样？我们也不知道，但我们知道他已经是一个很棒的球员了。最重要的是，我们认为他会成为一个顶尖的球员。我们不想要给他太多负面的压力，我们只希望他的到来能给我们带来他所拥有高质量的足球技巧，同时也享受他自己的足球。

There is talk of us targeting the best young English talent this summer - is that the strategy?

有人说我们今年夏天的目标是英格兰中最有天赋的年轻球员们-这是我们的策略吗？ 

Yes and no. It's not because a player is English and young that we are going to go for him. We go for a player because he ticks all the boxes. It's what we need at this time in this window. If a player is English or British or has played in the Premier League we'll look at that over someone who is abroad but it could be any nationality as long as they tick the boxes and is what we need for this window and going forward.

是也不是(好，那这一题跳过  ㄎㄎ)。不是的原因在于我们要的球员并不仅仅是年轻的本土球员就好了，而是因为他有著满满的优点，这才是我们在这转会时期所需要的。如果一个球员是本土球员或在英超踢球，我们也会看看其他在国外踢球的球员，不限定任何国籍只要他也有同样的优点，而那也是我们需要的我们也会去接触他。

We've completed a major transfer early in the summer. We haven't seen that a lot at Liverpool over recent years - again, is that a strategy?

我们在夏天的初段就完成了一个很大笔的转会，这在近年来的利物浦身上并不多见，同样的，这也是我们的策略吗？

That's the way I personally like to work. The earlier the better because we can then readjust our strategy or decide we aren't going to do any more - which won't be the case now! I didn't know it wasn't the case before but it's certainly something we are trying to do.

这是一个我个人做事偏好的方法。越早越好，因为我们可以重新调整我们的策略或往后不需要再做的决定-但现在还不到这个时候。我不知道以前是不是这个样子，但现在这是我们试著去做的方向(意思是很快就又会有新消息了吗？)

Just finally, how will this deal impact upon the future of David Ngog?

最后一问，这个交易对Ngog的未来是如何呢？

Sunderland have had a strong interest in David, so we've agreed to let David speak to Sunderland about his future to see if he's interested in going there. They've expressed a strong interest, so we'll see what's next for him.

黑猫队Ngog的兴趣很浓厚，所以我们同意让黑猫跟Ngog有所接触(所以是没有一起打包啰)，也看他自己是不是有兴趣想去。黑猫表现出对Ngog有很浓厚的兴趣，所以就让我们看下去吧。
