It seems Roy loves his Aussie keepers:

Championship side Middlesbrough have rejected Liverpool's bid for goalkeeper Brad Jones.

As revealed by skysports.com earlier on Thursday, Liverpool had lodged a bid for the Australian international.

Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson is keen to bring in Jones to provide cover and competition for No.1 keeper Pepe Reina.

The Reds are believed to have tabled a £2million bid for the 28-year-old as they look to tie up a deal before the close of the transfer window.

However, Middlesbrough are understood to have shunned Liverpool's bid as Gordon Strachan looks to keep hold of the keeper.

It remains to be seen if Liverpool will come back with a new, improved bid for Jones or switch their attentions elsewhere.

You would have to be mad to join Liverpool as a keeper... can't see Pepe leaving any time soon.

But, with all due respect to Jones, he's not the best keeper going around and is unlikely to ever command a premier league starting spot.

This way, he'll play for one of the biggest clubs in the world, get cup games and the odd europe game and probably improve as a keeper, due to the increase in standard of coaching.

News out of a spurs forum is that William gallas has had a medical and will be unveiled as a spurs player shortly.

But at the end of the day, we need him.
