EXCLUSIVE
By Shane Evans

Former Fulham striker Brian McBride has insisted current want-away Cottagers star Clint Dempsey would be a success at Liverpool, were he to move to Anfield.

The 29-year-old has attempted to force through a move already this summer by not featuring on a pre-season tour with the club and has now refused to play for Martin Jol's team until ge is transferred.

The dutch manager has insisted he would welcome Dempsey back into his squad readily, and that no bids have been made but the former Fulham striker is sure his compatriot would shine on Merseyside.

"If you’re asking me if I think Clint can succeed [at Liverpool]? For sure," McBride told Goal.com. "He’s got not only the talent and the ability but he’s a very determined individual. He adapts extremely well to so many different situations.

"Take Fulham for example. He’s had four or five different coaches. He’s always put his head down and showed them what he’s made of.

"I think that’s a sign of not only a very good player but one that is able to adapt and make the transition regardless of who the manager is.”
