I know I've rambled on the past couple of days about how much I love Firmino but I was just thinking, imagine him getting support from Keita next season? he's bagging in all the goals this season, I see next season him been even better, especially if we get another center mid incoming, a top one. Then we've got TAA to think about who could also play in that position. Them kinda players feeding the likes of Mane, Salah and most importantly Firmino? we'll be laughing.

I'm really excited about this season in general, I think top 4 is ours for the taking (even if we don't sign anybody else) I honestly believe we will improve our position from last season. Next season I'm more excited about, I think Keita is going to bring so much to the team, shame we can't get him this month but we have it to look forward to so I'm overall delighted and I can't wait to see him part of the team.

I saw a lot of Keita last season but not much this, has he calmed down a bit? I know at the beginning he was getting red cards left right and center.

Anyway just a random post, onwards and upwards, forget the Swansea game it's over and done with, overall we should be happy, I think we have a lot to look forward to.

{Ed002's Note - No he has not calmed down. I have explained the problems there have been already.}

Salah, the Swansea game wasn’t a game in isolation. It’s happened a number of times this season.

So on the other hand, that's concerning. Let's hope Klopp can knock him into touch.

Hopefully the change to a big club will help him mature on and off the field.

Salah has 17 goals in the league
Firminho 10

So I don't know why you say Firminho is getting all the goals. He missed a sitter in the last minute v Swansea his only chance of the game.

He has had a good season so far but Salah has been better.

Mark I never said he was better then Salah did I? You obviously didn't understand my post.

Yeah alright he missed a sitter, he is human is he not? wasn't just him though was it, the whole team played bad that night. It happens.

Salah has without a doubt been the best player this season but I wasn't discussing him.

Your post says

"hes bagging in all the goals this season". He is actually in the league a few goals down where he needs to be if we are going to challenge.

I take it that wasn't what you mean't to say.

I am not so sure Keita is the player many believes he is, i watched him quite a bit last season, and i don't know if he is as good as people want him to be. he can run a lot and has decent power for his size, but to me it seems like he is lacking abit in his understanding of the game, sometimes running around like a headless chicken. But i said the same thing about Mane, id love to be wrong.

Stoupid, each to their own opinion mate. I kind of understand what you are saying but overall I'd have to disagree, I think he's the real deal mate personally. Plus, I think with the team we have, he'd fit in like a jigsaw and I believe he'll hit the ground running, as long as he sorts his head out he can be a vital cog to our machine.

There was a few games I'd seen of him where he did literally bugger all and seemed a bit out of it, almost as if he couldn't be bothered? but the majority of the games I have seen he impressed me. At Liverpool he can't afford to have lazy days, he needs to step up and use his full potential every single day and I think he will, he wanted this move and is obviously wanting to be here asap, I hope once he gets the move he'll have the right state of mind and sort his head out.

Stoupid, i actually agree and i was against signing Keita. His attitude really concerns me.

However, ability wise he excites me. It is very easy to forget (because of his price tag), that Keita is still only 22 years old, and nowhere near his peak.

I don't agree with the constant Firminho Love in that is often on the same people's posts, that's all. Even Mk now agrees with me in certain games he should play in a different role. No point everyone having the same opinion and just saying yea yea isn't he great he gets loads of goals, assists wins us games and he is the glue etc. I have a different opinion.

Keita - Stoupid if you were not impressed with him last season then it is a good job you haven't watched him this season. For me it is like VVD who improves our defence. Keita will 100% improve our midfield and if the want £15m to bring him now, pay the money.

Im not saying he isn't going to improve our midfield, its just that some people seems to think with Keita in the team we will no longer strugle to break down defensive teams, we will stop letting in easy goals etc etc. to me he looks like a good player, can do a litle bit of everything but not extremely good at anything. i was not trying to be negative towards Keita, its just that i can't se him running a midfield like say Hamsik does. And i have watched him this season also, don't see the big difference from last year to be honest, exept this year the media is highlighting the negative things, while last year they highlighted the positives. and im sorry for my bad English, im not very smart you know.

{Ed002's Note - There are a lot of negative things. On-field discipline, off-field issues, taunting the other players with new cars, the money he will be earning, refusing to train, etc., etc.. The club are absolutely sick of him.}

Maybe this is the deal we have to get done. RBL might meet us half way on extra cash. Like £10m extra now and £10m if we qualify for the group stages of Champions league. Then all other targets can wait for the summer.

{Ed002's Note - Why would BD want to do that. Liverpool know what it would take and don't want to pay it. If that changes then fine.}

If the club are sick of him, why wouldn't they want to offload him this window? Genuine question, not trying to pick holes in what Ed2 is saying.

{Ed002's Note - Because of their need for him to play in the latter half of the season as they push for the Champions League. They gave Liverpool a price at the start of the window - Liverpool did not want to pay it. Perhaps they realised they are already paying well over the odds and pushing the transfer fee towards €100M is stupid?}
