So according to some people, VVD was a done deal.

24hrs later, the same people are saying we haven't agreed a deal with Southampton although the player definitely wants the move. They are also saying the 'illegal approach' was a smokescreen.

48hrs later, LFC drop all interest and apologise to Southampton.

So much for the reliable sources and people in the know.

No deal was EVER agreed with Saints or the player!

Embarrassing.

{Ed025's Note - it was agreed with him and his agent sgtP, everyone assumed that the club were part of the negotiations but it turned out that that was not the case mate..

Yes obviously there was something in it. It's just that it's gone wrong. Hey you know what, maybe it's for the best. Perhaps we should just stick to our original plan and not get sidetracked. I just hope we will learn the lessons and this will NEVER happen again. Not a good start to the summer! Let's hope we have a good ending!

The fact that all this was happening and the club did not know, is criminal warranting the sacking of whoever was involved in this shambles, IMO.

{Ed025's Note - klopp was obviously involved...so sack him?

He needs to be brought into line if that is the case lEd25.

This could have a serious impact on whom we sign during this transfer window. The consequences of not getting this transfer window right could have a damaging impact for many seasons to come.

In my opinion.

{Ed025's Note - you could be right nicky, im not saying its good mate just that beating the club with a big stick is not the answer..

Ed025 - And why not? I am not at all saying that Klopp should be sacked for any proven offence in the VVD situation. But if it is proven that he is guilty of any sackable offence then he should be sacked, just as much as any other LFC employees guilty of a sackable offence.

{Ed025's Note - thats called...cutting your nose off to spite your face ra, rap some knuckles anmd move on i say..

Those hoping for a happy ending can forget it, this isn't going to end well and I can see us getting a kicking. Not only that, but we're utterly incapable of bringing in top players so we are not going to be able to compete. We're going to a Grand Prix hoping to win in a Yugo Zastava. That's the state of our club.

Is that it Ed025? Liverpool have suffered immense embarrassment because no one thought check that the other club knew? Where were the lawyers and the Admin people?

{Ed025's Note - ok then polecat, kick some arses or sack someone or maybe donate some money to a southampton hospital or something..then move on..

then yes ed, its a disgrace and if klopp played his part then he has dragged our name through the mud. sorry but Liverpool is bigger than klopp.

{Ed025's Note - i think your intentions are honourable jay but if this was pep or mourinho do you think their supporters would be calling for the manager to fall on his sword?...i think not mate..

To be honest ed25, Klopp should have some repercussions from this. Yes we all love him and in my opinion he is a world class manager but in any other line of work, you put your employers reputation (already poor) into more disrepute through pure incompetence (which it is no matter how our fans try and spin it), you would be in for a serious disciplinary. Very poor from all involved.

{Ed025's Note - i agree gunn its piss poor mate, discipline all involved and hand out some final warnings i say, maybe sack a lawyer or two just dont do anything that will halt the progress of the club and undo the hard work of last season as an act of contrition..

Ed025, we may not sack him as that is just cutting your nose to spite your face and many other managers have done this and did not get sacked. He should be reprimanded prolly in private and be given a stern warning to stop this nonsense cos this is the second time he is doing this to my knowledge (last summer with Zeilinski) .

{Ed025's Note - i will have that brussels, cut him out of any future dealings if hes guilty and fine him 2 weeks wages and donate it to the manchester or london victims fund or similar mate, but have an internal inquiry first and not a knee jerk reaction..

Yeah ed, I agree that sacking Klopp would not be beneficial to us in anyway, as you said throw some warnings / disciplinary's around and make certain that this doesn't happen again. As ed002 has said countless times we are becoming a laughing stock.

{Ed025's Note - im not playing it down gunn its a very serious matter and it has made the club look amateurish, dont throw the baby out with the bath water thats all im saying mate..

Yeah I see what your saying ed. Thanks for the reply and looks like Edwards is the one that fsg are coming to speak to about it mate.

{Ed025's Note - im sure we will find out presently mate..

Been reading this site for years and Macca has got a better percentage of things right than anybody else in the media let alone this site. He doesn't have to share what he does so turn it in! Most of us on here appreciate his input and posts like this will lose his information altogether. We're all disappointed but stuff happens its football we'll get over it!
