Sakho is far superior to Gary Cahill, Sakho is perhaps the fastest central defender in Europe, is strong in the air, but at such a young age would be a great buy given his quality on the ball

Just a few pointers on the managers situation

KK is doing a fine job, you no were you are with him
the teams improving, playing attacking football and signings a comming good under him.

If KK was in charge from start of season then we may have more points than we've got

Youngsters are coming through with him.

All the player want him to be manager and have confidence in him.

Now if you get a new manager

It will take time to implement his ideas into the team
Instead of moving forward we could go back
no PL experience.

A few bad games then pressure will be on him

Players may not adapt to new style of play, then you have confidence issues

Look what happened with WOY, we were in a relegation zone

I'm realy worried why the owners are looking at other managers or taking time, when clearly there missing the benefits of KK.

New manager could mean us going back another year
With KK we could be fighting PL next year

I know lots of people are looking for/ hoping for 5-6 'big' signings this summer, but I expect it will only be 2-3.
A LB, RW and LW.
I think KK will look to keep bringing through youth which I personally think is great!
Im undecided as to whether or not I think we need a CB, with Johnson and flanno at RB, a new LB and Aurelio - that leaves 6 CB's in Agger, Carra, Skrtel, Kelly, Ayala and Wilson. However, Skrtel has had a few dodgy performances this season, Agger is v.injury prone, carra is gettin old and the other 3 are still young.
BUT if we bring in a new CB that would mean selling agger or skrtel and would be hard to bring through Kelly, Ayala and Wilson which I think is a bad thing.

What do the Eds or anyone think? {Ed001's Note - I am with you on this, I don't feel we need to buy a centre back, we just need to give Ayala a chance.}

 

 

 

 

13 Apr 2011 23:31:57
Ed, what do you think is our weakest position in our team, and who do you think is this right man to fill it {Ed001's Note - left wing, if I had my choice it would be someone like Mata or Perotti.}

Would you say they are realistic targets? {Ed002's Note - Marveaux}

'dempsey is a good player, good enough to be in our squad. he is 28 and would be a good addition, don't see it ever happening however.'

Good enough for Barca's squad? United's squad? Chelsea's squad? Real Madrid's? Arsenal's squad? That's where we should be setting our standards. Have some pride, mate - we've signed enough players who are just 'good enough'. How about we put a stop to it now before the rot goes any further.

 

 

 

 

13 Apr 2011 23:38:11
Guys we all know what positions we need to strengthen but I am honestly concerned we are not being linked with the likes of Pastore, Sanchez, Martinez, etc these are the best young attacking midfielders in the world and if we think Charlie adam is the answer then we should be a little worried. .
yes we need width asap but for me we still don't have a creative midfielder who is excellent goin forward and can pick a pass at the right time. create something out of nothing by a piece of individual magic.
I think we have a solid midfield but we lack something going forward in the middle of the park and i don't think gerrard or miereles can provide it.

If Adam is to provide this someone will have to be dropped from midfield who???

Ed's and reds your feedback pls.

We are close to signing Ashley Young & Eden Hazard. Take no notice to the Villas Boas deal it's nonsense Reina is going Skeketleburg or whatever his name is the replacement! !

I'm not too sure about Connor Wickham. I've heard good things about him in the Championship but then watched him live in an Under 21 England game and wasn't that impressed but to be fair he is still only young and very promising.

Ed, where you think Wickham will be playing his football next season? {Ed001's Note - I expect him to stay at Ipswich myself.}

Good to know we're all pulling together with the idea of not signing any more dead-wood, then? {Ed001's Note - are you suggesting that Dempsey is deadwood? If so you have not watched the lad play enough.}

see yet again people judging players when they clearly havnt watched them consistently, dempsey is a good player, good enough to be in our squad. he is 28 and would be a good addition, don't see it ever happening however.

Im not judging him on not being able to get in the madrid team, im judging on when iv seen him play, he is useless, for a holding midfielder his tackling is awful, he can pick a pass but hasnt got much else in his locker.
remember when he played against us when we bet madrid 4-0, il admit he was playing in a poor madrid team, but he couldnt keep up with the pace of the game.
just my opinion on him ed, never really rated him, diarra would be a better shout in my opinion.

For people saying gago is class and what not, if you've really taken the time to watch him play a lot of games you would realise he is only average, he doesn't get a sniff at madrid, i would certainly think there are better options.

as for enrique, he is a solid defender and decent going forward, wouldn't be a bad addition, but there are also better options, a club like ours needs to at least attempt to sign top players.

jay b {Ed001's Note - Gago had a long term injury, Madrid have since brought in 3 players that can play his position in Alonso, Khedira and Lass Diarra. Bit harsh to judge him on not being able to force his way into the Madrid team.}

I was being serious, and i generally believe we need to target the American Market more. What made you think i was taking the mickey?
If i did then sorry. I was merely presenting a few ideas on how to increase revenue using the country from which all of our current shareholders hail from. If it wasn't funny, then i'm sorry a serious post has to be slandered by humour in your insignificant opinion. Over long? I've seen longer. Sarcastic? The use of witty language or characterisation to express insult or contempt towards another? I fail to see where I was guilty of that.
Did i seem insulting or as though i was joking to you Ed?"

'{E003's Note - I presume this is your attempt at sarcasm}'

The guy went on for fifteen paragraphs, and ended his post by suggesting we sign Clint Dempsey - 'an excellent back-up striker' - and you said there was nothing humorous in his post. So, no, it isn't my attempt at sarcasm. Just stating facts. {Ed001's Note - what is the joke about Dempsey? He would be a very good back up striker, he scores plenty of goals in international football, can play as a target man or second striker. Very underrated player is Dempsey, far too good for Fulham.}

Well I'm sorry, I could not believe that someone would spend so much time going into such detail about the LFC business plan of action without it being sarcastic.

"Of course we need quality! But Seb Larsson is better than any of our current 'squad players'. So to have him as a back up to say Ashley Young(?) would be good. "

In my oponion I'd rather give Sterling a go next year as a squad player. If Larsson does leave I bet it is not for a club in the top 10 of the premiership.

Young is overrated seen him play a number of times and he is lighweight and a fair weather player.

I've seen him go missing twice at Wigan.

That's the world we live in, and is one of the reasons United have been more successfull over the past twenty years - because they were getting their hands dirty pulling in the green-stuff. You don't have to acknowledge it, but there are people at the club paid to think that way like it or not. And may be the guy just wanted to buy a LFC shirt in the U.S without having to jump through hoops to get it - and made a valid observation if all the other big sides are doing it - and you just slated him with an over-long, unfunny, sarcastic post.

My realistic-ish dream signings for the summer:

Nicolas Douchez (GK)
Simon Kjaer (CB)
Leighton Baines (LB)
Ashley Young (RM)
Moussa Sissoko (CM)
Charlie Adam (CM)
Sylvain Marveaux (LM)
Matt Jarvis (LM)
Gervinho (ST)

8 Signings may be a bit much there but I honestly think with these additions would not only make us a Top 4 side easily, but possibly title challengers as well. Imagine this squad of 25 (including some youngsters to make it over 25), for example:

GK's:
Reina
Douchez
Gulacsi
Hansen

RB/ LB:
Kelly
Johnson (also RM/ LM)
Baines
Flanagan
Wilson (also CB)
Aurelio (also RM/ LM)

CB:
Carragher (also RB/ LB)
Agger (also LB)
Kjaer
Ayala
Skrtel OR Kyrgiakos

RM/ LM:
Kuyt (also ST)
Young
Marveaux
Jarvis
Cole OR Maxi (also CM)

CM:
Sissoko
Meireles (also RM/ LM)
Gerrard (also RM/ LM)
Adam
Lucas
Shelvey
Spearing

ST:
Gervinho
Suarez
Carroll
Jovanovic (also RM/ LM)
Pacheco OR Ngog

That is a pretty good squad of player. There is plenty of versatile players and plenty of backup for injured players there. I know we won'y buy 8 players unless we go on a bonkers mad rush spree on Deadline Day or something; 5-6 players is more realistic but remember this is a realistic-ish dream team.

Villas Boas will be our next manager.

Kenny has always known his position was interim, and he will be appointed footballing ambassador. {Ed001's Note - give it up, this is fantasy nonsense, KK never ever has accepted his position as an interim, when he was appointed the owners knew he could not be an interim. That was why it took them so long to get rid of Hodgson and appoint him, they know that they have to make it permanent if possible.}

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I agree. . . . .If FSG appoint some else he will surely be gone before he even starts his job. . . . .

The moment KK declared his interest, Roy Hodgson was a sitting duck. . . No matter who comes, he will be a sitting duck. . . .

SO I don't see that happening. . . .KK will go ahead and by the looks of it , may buy the following

=> A left back
=> A winger (may be two but one with pace or very good crossing ability)
=> A midfielder (depends on who he want, we are fairly well covered there)
=> A center back ( most probably ball playing defender)

All may be first teamers as our youth setup is looking fantastic. . . .

We should also appreciate Rafa as he had taken quite an active interest in the youth setup of Liverpool in the last 2-3 years of his tenure and also brought back KK to oversee and nurture the youth set up. . . Definitely more visionary than the so called Special One

Can anyone tell me why people think that da gea(sp.) is a good keeper? Ive seen a bit of him before and he don't look that great. And just because he's young it don't mean he's gonna grow into a pepe reina. Real life is not fifa manager mode after all with the player growth and what nots. So please, kjaer, young, da gea, enrique, wickham are prime examples of just because a player is discussed on here alot, it don't mean he's actually a good player.

Does anyone else get annoyed with how the media portray Gareth Bale as some sort of world beater? Sure he's a really good player but i don't think he warrants all the 'worlds best player' comments. I've only really seen him do anything special enough in about 3 or 4 games.

Stu. {Ed003's Note -Yep, me}


in my opinion to be a truely world class player you need to be able to withstand gettin injured alot, so that you can sustain playin well, bale is made out of tissue, he seems to get injured very easily

Chris in Tamworth {Ed001's Note - I think there is some misunderstanding over how the buyout clauses work. They only apply if the buying team is based in Spain, outside of Spain they do not apply at all.}

@ Its obvious that no more than the buy out clause would be bid, The chances r that a team outside of spain would get him cheaper.
AT have already said that the buy out clause is what they r looking to get for the player n once its met he can choose what he wants.
United have been told to match it n De gea can decide then at the end of the season.

"Then we could open an official Liverpool merchandise store over there, and that would increase our merchandise sales income.
We are part owned by the New York times, surely they could start raising awareness of the club in the big apple. Henry owns the red sox. We should get the squad over there to play in the red sox ground. We could play the red sox in a friendly match of Baseball, then a friendly mat
We could in theory take over the American Soccer fan base. After the Asian tour this pre-season, the summer after has to be a tour of the States. Chicago, Washington, Texas, LA and Colorado. Some of those teams are actually very good.
Imo we should try to sign an American player too. Clint Dempsey would be an excellent back up striker. Donavon would be a stretch, but i'd take him any day. There is an untoached market over there, and we need to leave Asia alone for a change and go west."

How can people be unhappy with King Kenny in charge? Ian Darke had the comment of the match on the ESPN coverage in the States for the Man City match. . he said "Kenny celebrates every Liverpool goal like he was in the Kop". That is so true, he has brought a passion back to the club, and there was a time that no Stevie and no Nando would increase the anxiety level, but not on Monday. The club still lacks depth, but things are on the up.

Danish newspaper Jyllands Posten is claiming that Kenny Dalglish and Damien Comolli are planning to make a mad dash for Germany to personally secure the signature of Wolfsburg star Simon Kjaer.

Dalglish reportedly sees Kjaer as perfect for the center half position at Liverpool.

The defender has been rated one of the top on his kind in the Bundesliga, but with Wolfsburg currently struggling and sitting third last on the table and facing relegation, speculation is growing that the Danish international is set to make an exit.

The 22 year old was linked with Liverpool last year while he was playing for Serie A side Palermo, but Kjaer signed with Wolfsburg instead.

Now that Wolfsburg are reportedly looking to cash in on the youngster, Liverpool are back in the hot seat to work out a deal, and both the Liverpool manager and football director are wasting no time in securing the star s signature.

So if another club met the players buy out clause would that not start a bidding war. . dum dum

@ Chris how would that be a bidding war, any team outside spain can match the buy out clause.
Then its up to the player but that won't make the clubs get into a BIDDING war cause the fee would already be agreed . . dum dum

(1) If there is interest from 2 or more teams from outside Spain then there is the potential for a bidding war.
(2) If there is interest from 2 or more teams from Spain and assuming any clauses are met then there is the potential for a bidding war.
(3) if there is interest from teams both in Spain and from elsewhere then assuming any clauses are met by the Spanish teams then there is the potential for a bidding war.
Sorry to write such a dull post but I need to make Red Knight understand that having a buy out clause does not necessarily avoid a bidding war and therefore he should be fully aware of the facts before he starts with the insults

Then its up to the player but that won't make the clubs get into a BIDDING war cause the fee would already be agreed . . dum dum

Maybe a bidding war for the players wages and bonuses etc. .

I'd be suprised if Arsenal and having just watched Gomes howler, Spurs are not interested

I would certainly take Gago over Adam and as a genuine holding midfielder it would leave Gerrard, Meireles and Lucas to compete for the other midfield spot ( or two spots if 4-3-3) this would be a start to giving us the sort of depth we have been lacking. Add 2 wingers and another striker and anythings possible!

Adam is not a holding player. he would be a playmaker like Alonso. Banega (who would be my choice for DM) would be the Masch replacement.

I'm beginning to think the villa boas rumour may have some weight, like redknapp said on sky after the citeh match just give him the job now hes the obvious choice so i ask myself why has this not happened, what or who are fsg waiting for, it would be a massive boost for the squad to see kenny sign full time, so again why has this not happened.
also the owners need to be doing everything to get bale, class act

There is a lot of Liverpool supporters in the states, we should be looking at ways to increase our revenue streams, We have got Lebron James on board, and with American owners, I thought they would be trying to increase the brand awareness in the states, would be another great market to tap into. Ross

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Thats an excellent idea. I think we should start broadcasting Liverpoolfc.tv in America. That'd build up a bigger fan base, and we'd make some money on advetisement during breaks (people pay for their adverts to be shown).
Then we could open an official Liverpool merchandise store over there, and that would increase our merchandise sales income.
We are part owned by the New York times, surely they could start raising awareness of the club in the big apple. Henry owns the red sox. We should get the squad over there to play in the red sox ground. We could play the red sox in a friendly match of Baseball, then a friendly match of football. That'd raise the red sox fan base here in the UK too. Win and Win.
Lebron James could do something for the club easily as well. He is the biggest basketball player in the USA at the moment.
We could in theory take over the American Soccer fan base. After the Asian tour this pre-season, the summer after has to be a tour of the States. Chicago, Washington, Texas, LA and Colorado. Some of those teams are actually very good.
Imo we should try to sign an American player too. Clint Dempsey would be an excellent back up striker. Donavon would be a stretch, but i'd take him any day. There is an untoached market over there, and we need to leave Asia alone for a change and go west.

ED what do feel will be the future use of Gerrard, personally I feel he'll be used like Scholes for united

however if he wants to move and try something new then i say let him, he's been a great servant to the club and we should respect his choice - Mc {Ed001's Note - I really don't know, I think a lot depends on the players we manage to bring in during the summer. He might not be needed deeper anyway.}

Ed just a thought, Mourinho certainly appears to be a fan of Khedira in his midfield. Obviously at the moment he partners him with Alonso but I feel next season he will either stick with Alonso or promote Gago. Either way whichever player he decides not to go with is going to be looking for a move to play regularly, I would imagine, and I would take either. Is this the way you could see things panning out?

Chris in Tamworth {Ed001's Note - I have suggested Gago a number of times, he is almost certainly on his way out there and will not be all that expensive. The only doubt is his ability to come back from a long injury lay off.}

"Andy Reid is fat & as mobile as Garfield. Seb Larsson does have a fair bit of pace. He'd be a good squad player. Your just looking at the name, not the actual quality he possesses. I'm not saying he's a world beater but could do a good job for us. No need to be so stubborn."

And that highlights why we are in the position we currently find ourselves. If Larsson had "actual quality" then Arsenal would not have sold him?

We should be aiming for world beaters, or players that have the potential to be that. Players that at least excite.

I said at the start of the season the exact same about Konchesky as you have said about Larsson. And how wrong I was!

A good squad player - well I'd rather give the younger lads a try and save on the wages.

When torres handed in a transfer request, i was devastated, like most fans probably were. But looking back now im actualy glad he went. We have 2 strikers now who actualy want to play for us. Just look at the smiles on andy and luis' faces when they score. That tells you everything. As for wanting torres back, no thanks. He's past it. Id rather put young morgan on the bench. Time to move on and look into the future. Lets just all say "thanks for the memories nando and enjoy your 5 goals a season in london."

'Lucas is only just over a year older than Spearing, but you'd never get people on here comparing him to Alonso.

He is the same age as Fabregas, do we hear the Arsenal fans argue as much?'

That's not the point, we cut our young english players a lot more slack than the foreign ones. Each player develops at different speeds - but would you come on hear slating Spearing or Shelvey because they're not as good as Gerrard. I don't think so, but all Lucas ever gets from some of you is he's not as good as Alonso, Mascherano etc when if you opened your eyes he's actually turning into a top player.

We have plenty of good squad players - what's the point of getting another. A few world class purchases and the likes of Kuyt, Spearing and Skrtl become good squad players anyhow (although Kuyt was MOM for me vs Citeh).

Hey ed, just reading down the pages and there are afew things that annoy me, torres has gone people should move on, what goes around comes around, and im sure he regrets many things about the way he left the club. if people wana talk of torres then try the chelsea page.
kk has been great, ive gotta say i don't remember alot of his first tenure in charge, and was a little sceptical about him coming in, i will hold my hands up and say i thought he had been out the game to long. . . i was wrong, he has been great, loving his passion, the way he talks before and after games is first class! we can't and never will win every game, so people calling for boas, or mourinho to come in the summer after we lose a game is a joke.
FSG have been top draw since taking charge, and so far have only been good for this great club, j w henry will only do what is right for liverpool and kenny will get his contract but whether that happens today tomorrow or at the end of the season it doesn't matter imo.because we don't no what is going on behind the scenes, the owners got slated on here in jan for not buying early in the window, we were never gonna rebuild in january, torres was ment to stay untill the summer, he forced the move, we reacted now we have the best front two in the prem. people have short memories, this seson was over a long time ago, and im very optomistic for next year, no europa football could be a good thing, good times ahead i think, the wheels are in motion, the right people are coming in to the club, steve clarke as an example, just think that there will always be a minority that will never be pleased.

Larsson?????

Seb Larsson is no better than Pennant, Gonzales, Nunez etc. . so why would we to want to buy him. If we want to move forward then we need to purchase players that are able to perform consistently at the highest level. This has been the problem in the past, buying players that are simply not good enough.

Larsson may have a "sweet right foot". . Well Andy Reid has a "sweet left foot" should we buy him as well?

To get to the next step we need players that offer much more than this.

{Ed002's Note - One would have thought if the Liverpool fans had moved on he would not be the most talked about player on the Liverpool pages. Certainly significantly more posts about Torres and Lucas (or other figure of hate) than there are about Carroll and Suarez. The balance seems entirely wrong.}

We've moved on in a sense of accepting he's a Chelsea player & is no longer a red, and I'm glad he's gone. Like Comoli said, his departure was like a dark cloud over the club had been lifted. But for me it's just abit of amusement to see him struggle, nothing meaningful. Rant over, subject finished. Carroll & Suarez all thee wayy!

Yes he was. Noone saying lucas for captain while stevie still here. Lucas is one of our most consistently goid performers this year. I used to bash him non stop but have had to eat my words, lucas was our best player vs chelsea in my opinion and has been excellent all season. If he keeps it up why not captain when gerrard retires?

I totally agree Ross mate. I thought we were all in agreement that we probably got the best deal with Suarez and Carroll replacing Torres.

I don't think that Torres would have complimented Suarez like Carroll does. Torres likes to run the channels and pull the defenders out wide. Suarez likes to do this to, so Torres and Luis would have got in each others way. A bit like Berbanob and Shrek do for Man.U. They like to drop deep into space, that's why the 2 of them playing together very rarely works.

Carroll is the target man we've been crying out for since Crouchie left. Add that on top of having Luis who is the No.7 we've crying out for since Beardsley hung the boots up. Then i hope we agree that we have probably the best and most balanced strikeforce in the PL.

Blair Mayne YNWA
= = = = = = = =
I couldn't agree more Blair, for the first time in years we have balance up front, and I think they could both easily get 15 - 20 goals next season, This would never have been possible if we had not sold him, but yet people don't see the positives from the deal and LFC fans should be very happy with the deal and look to the future because if we get some quality wide players Carroll and Suarez will be even better Ross

if you go on the chelsea page they struggle to post anything everyday, its dead on there. only thing i have to say on the torres saga is thanks for the memories and the £50m. shame i can't peel his name off my shirt so have to do without for the rest of the season. i will keep it but will not wear it again. but its a small price to pay for the change in fortunes since he left.
might play it safe and get a retro dalglish shirt next year cos that's one hero that will not do a runner.

Come on now, ed. There's NO WAY I called that man "Sir Alex". If that was profane, you should've just edited it to "Ferguson", not "Sir Alex".

My contempt for that man was evident from those words.
So you could've used alternative (but less severe) words or his surname.

Anyway, even if the Germans do end up in England some day, let it be NOT Liverpool. My hope is that Kenny would step down 2021, or 2016 at the earliest.
Then whoever takes over is hopefully from within (Steve Clarke maybe? Sami?) and continue the tradition.

Still on the subject, I think Klopp and Loew, should they end up in the Prem, we'd see them at one of Chelsea, City or Spurs.
Just like us, whoever Arsenal and the Manc Filth get in to replace Wenger and Ferguson will be young and will be there for a very long time. I'd expect Owen Coyle, Blanc and Gurdiola to be the main candidates there.

What about you, ed? Where do you see the Germans going to should they come?

Right people i think the obsession with torres has to stop, it is amusing to see him struggle after the things he said but he is no longer a liverpool player so is no longer important lets move on to bigger an brighter things

ed would you agree ? {Ed002's Note - Of course I do. Liverpool has taken an enormous step forward in recent weeks culminating in, what I am told was, a great performance against Manchester City. I think the supporters should be concentrating on that rather than speculating if Liverpool could buy Torres back at a discount in the summer.}

Carroll scored a couple of good goals on Monday, Suarez has been playing really well, but yet people still talk about Torres, Am I the only one who finds it so boring to read these posts. To be honest I don't care what he does at Chelsea unless the are playing LFC. Good luck to him. I think the eds should just delete all posts about him from now on. Ross

The reason there are posts everyday, is because he still hasn't scored. We're not doing it because we miss him, we're doing it because he took a few cheap shots at the club after he left. I suspect after he gets back into the groove of scoring these posts will stop :D

I'm sure that Mr Villas Boas is a very good trainer with a bright future in the game. But that future isn't at LFC, well at least that's what I'm hoping for.

There's no one else I'd want in that dug-out than Kenny. Considering that Sir Alex is 72 and still well enough to continue for the next 3/ 5 years, at 60, Kenny could give us 5 to 10 seasons.

After that we would then look at our options. I don't buy this "he's not a solution long-term", "we need a young, dynamic manager" nonsense.

What we need is a man good enough to take us to the promised land. That person's already in place, Kenny. Woy the hell would you want to get rid of him?Come to think of it, it's destiny that Kenny's here. The King should've been here for the past 20 years. So he's only come back to finish what he started some two decades ago.

Woy should he be denied an opportunity to live his dream, huh? Woy deny us the opportunity to live our dream?

Give Kenny the job cause he's capable of doing it. On top of that, he's something Villas Boas, Deschamps, Klopp etc could probably never be: Liverpool through and through. The man would walk through brickwalls for this club. He inspires and brings joy to us in a way that no other man can.

The man is a colussus.

So please, NO Boas, NO Klopp, NO Deschamps. Only the King. This is not a for denying dreams. Let us live ours, let Kenny live his. It's no less we deserve, it's not less than he deserves.

You ditch failures and stick with winners. Kenny's a winner. Give the man his due shot.

As good a trainer Boas, Deschamps or Klopp is, I don't want to see any of them at Anfield.I'm sure there'll be a very good trainer when Kenny steps in 2016/ 2021 (hopefully from within). So that's no issue.

Ed002, I'm very much encouraged when you say that there's no chance that Mr Boas will be here anytime soon. Hopefully that goes for Deschamps, Klopp, Loew, Mourihno or whoever may have been considered.

Mate you are wasting your time, I was one of those people that use to berate Lucas, but he is improving, and will be a good squad player, and I am sure Kenny will get the best out of him. But some people just have to hate someone and slag them off, even thou he plays for Liverpool. The whole debate is becoming so boring, wish people would just move on, and wish people would stop posting about Torres, he has gone, He will not be coming back. End of. Just makes LFC supporters look very bitter especially now we have Suarez and Carroll and we have done the better business, but people don't seem to be happy with that, they still need to bang on about it.

Alex Ferguson got all flustered about David De Gea because he knows Liverpool may become involved in a bidding war should Reina declare his intentions to leave in the summer. Liverpool could easily outbid Man U if a war started. Man United will only have a set tranfer budget of around £30 mil, where as Liverpool will have no limit, and will deal with things on a deal to deal basis (if the player is worth it, there will be cash to get that player.)

With regards to Lucas.

I never used to rate him at all and on several occasions compared him to a cross between a russian tractor and a cart-horse. I have to say however that he is coming on leaps and bounds and I personally think that not only should we keep him but play him whenever he is available to be picked.

Re: Morgan v Fowler.


Robbie was the best natural finisher ever to play in the Premier League. End Of. Left foot, Right foot and headers. I'd love to know if there was ever a breakdown of all his goals to see what percentages were scored with each. He's called God for a reason. Morgan is a good prospect and has a long way to go to make the 1st team squad, but 3-4 years he could be close. He will never be Fowler.

Nine signings two free (wendt - marveaux) might not be the ones i "want" but it will be in the positions that i have said and expect another cm even if gerrard doesn't move on. but in my opinion the only way we can move forward is to sell gerrard. we can only benifite from moving on as our new strike force has shown. "MY OPINION" keep gerrard for one more season MAX. purely to help shelvy as there is no point in keeping him with his hefty wages as a super sub which though he could be used for this next season.

Kenny has always known his position was interim, and he will be appointed footballing ambassador. {Ed001's Note - give it up, this is fantasy nonsense, KK never ever has accepted his position as an interim, when he was appointed the owners knew he could not be an interim. That was why it took them so long to get rid of Hodgson and appoint him, they know that they have to make it permanent if possible.}
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I am sorry editor you are making a bit of speculation here. when KK was appointed it was an emergency appointment pressured by the fans and the failure of Hodgson. they took their time with hodgson because they wanted to make it work until summer so they hire a long term young manager. But they had to hire kenny for 6 months to stabilize and bring all the energy back which was so dead and demoralizing. my guess is Kenny surprised all of them. his managment, decisions, buyings worked much more than they expected. i think they are probably not sure if Kenny should be in their long term plan, that's why they are offering a short period of 2 years.

{Ed002's Note - Realistically it is likely to be the detail of any contract that needs to be tied down - and don't get wrapped around the dates and length of the deal too much. I suspect there is also discussion about the roles and responsibilities of certain parties to be resolved as well. In any case, do not expect Andre Villas-Boas to be manager next season. He may be coming to England at some point soon, but it will probably not be to Liverpool.}

Kenny Dalglish will be given the job full time in the summer, at the moment he's care-take manager til the end of season! ! People annoy me on this with their blatent lies. . The only problem over the contract talks at the moment is FSG are offering Kenny a 2 year contract, Kenny's looking for a longer term contract, that's it, simple as, I personally think he'll be offered a 3 year contract. . I think the Ed will back me up on this one.

Few thing to concider the massive dept that nesv at the time paid of with their own cash, a stadia with only 43000 odd seats, and a squad needing investment

-dept was about 340m somthing like that
-stadium cost around 300-400m for a new one possibly
-investing in the team which can't be calculated
.
adds up 2 about 628m without still changing the stadium situation not 2 mention improving the squad. so don't cry remember arsenal already has a stadium and a solid enough team so no need to compare

dept????? {Ed002's Note - You have the value horribly wrong. The club was purchased for about £300M which included all assets and cleared all debt. This was something in the order of £150M less than it was perhaps worth at the time but that is neither here nor there.}

Why do people want Villas Boas to become the next Liverpool manager? We have King Kenny so who could be better? He is our greatest ever player, has the love of the fans, makes the players happy, loves the club and has us playing more passionately. I am sure Villas Boas is a very good manager and will be great in the future but he has only had one very good season in Portugal and is needs to prove more than that. I thought we learned our lesson about getting managers after just one good season after Hodgson's dismal 6 months here. Long live the King!

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is keen on Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani.

The Italy international is starring on-loan at Juventus this season, though the Bianconeri are reluctant to meet the agreed 16 million option to make things permanent.

City boss Mancini is keen to take Aquilani off Liverpool's hands and would have no problem meeting their asking price.

"He's doing very well and is very impressive, " Mancini recently said of the midfielder.

Inter Milan have also made contact and tabled a tentative offer of 10 million cash plus fullback Davide Santon in exchange.

In other news; there are suggestions that we will table an offer of £8M and Joe Cole for Ashley Young. Can't see them accepting it, but that's the rumour.

I too like Lucas and never understand the level of criticism he gets/ got. He's an easy target for a lot of people who just like to jump on a band-wagon. A lot of it's down to that time when Gerrard was brought off versus Everton. He's got balls (imagine taking the sh*t he gets yet improving every year) is loyal - and if he was a 23 year old English player who'd spent a couple of years fighting his way into the first team this site would be full of people praising him. That's why he's footballing 'marmite' - those who 'get' him, love the guy - I've got a suspicion that he'll be here and a legend in ten years time. Deal with it.

First thing is, why sturridge, we were linked with benzema and bojan so why would we sign a player who struggled at chelse. also ashley young has said to sky sports that moving to manchester united is a dream so he won't sign either. we will have hulk instead. BUNEDD YNWA.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Sturridge is quality, he never got a chance at Chavski. Just look at his record at Bolton and the goals he's scoring, absolutley quality. Benzema will cost £20m+, and Bojan will most likely too. So that's so unlikely.

All of this talk of a busy summer has got me reminiscing.
Has anyone got a favourite ever transfer window.
I think mine must be the 6-way summer when we brought in henchoz, hyypia, smicer, westerveld, titi camara and erik meijer.

What a summer! By the way check out the photo i have uploaded in the pictures section. How young does sammi look???

Liverppol will offer £8m + Joe Cole for A. Young

Well I'm very flattered but I don't think I'm worth that much. My 6-a-side team isn't doing very well and, whilst I'm sure they would love Joe Cole to pull on the shirt, I'm not sure the wages (£0 p/ w, £0 win bonus, £0 goal bonus) would peak his interest. Also, at 35 I don't think I still have the pace for the premiership and I fear I would lose many friends should I sign. However, I could never resist the call should it come and if Kenny thinks I can still do a job you can all rest assured that I will give 100%!

Thanks for the support
A. Young.

Kenny Dalglish will be Liverpool's manager next season, but will sign the contract that the end of the season. This is because the owners want him to solely focus on playing matches and winning games than distract him by opening negotiations regarding a long term contract. A 3 year contract is currently being prepared by Tom Werner and Ian Ayre. Kenny knows he will be staying on as manager, just hasn't agreed the terms of the deal yet which will be discussed and negotiated at the end iof the season.
Kenny and Comolli have drawn up a list of possible signings for the summer. Contact has been made with the respected clubs in regards to potential transfer fees. All costs have now been submitted to the board who will analyse the requests and decide how much money to release from the club's funds.

Blakey.

 

 

 

 

13 Apr 2011 14:01:10
Kenny Dalglish will get the contract a couple of days after the end of the season, if he keeps the good form going, which is very likely. He won't be given a budget, the transfers will be dealt with on a deal-by-deal basis.

Outs: Maxi, Poulsen, Kyrgiakos, Konchesky, Aquilani, N'Gog (loan), Pacheco (loan)

Ins: Charlie Adam, Ashley Young, Balazs Dzsudzsak, Jose Enrique, Sylvain Marveaux & Sturridge.

People who say we will only sign 3-5 players must be blind, its obvious when Henry states he was amazed at the lack of depth in the squad and when Commoli also then says LFCs summer will be VERY busy and interesting. Especially considering in a normal summer we sign on average 3-4 players anyway.

From a local source (not guaranteed - but many times he's there or thereabouts)
He expects 5-8 players from:

Hazard, Jarvis, Young, Marveaux (likely), Lennon, Benzema, Wickham, Gervinho, Payet, Adam, M'Vila, Enrique (done), Cahill, Kjaer, Sakho, Phil Jones,
To make way will be:
Poulsen, Jovanovic, Degen, El Zhar, Aquilani, Maxi, Ngog, Kyrgiakos, Konchesky, Aurelio (possibly)
I'm telling you January was just the start of Dalglish's revival!
Y.N.W.A

I think this post is full of excitement and optimism however just to put a bit of reality into the mix how excited would you be if the 8 we sign from this list are
Jarvis, Young, Marveaux, Wickham, Adam, Enrique, Cahill, Jones? I'm not saying any of them are bad players but personally I'd rather have 3-4 top quality than 8 average.
Would you concur Ed? {Ed001's Note - I would just be happy to see Dalglish given his choice of players, whether they are the ones I would want or not.}

Is arsenal really worth 788million? when Liverpool was bought for 288m.
- - - - - - - - - - - -
few thing to concider the massive dept that nesvat the time paid of with their own cash, a stadia with only 43000 odd seats, and a squad needing investment

-dept was about 340m somthing like that
-stadium cost around 300-400m for a new one possibly
-investing in the team which can't be calculated
.
adds up 2 about 628m without still changing the stadium situation not 2 mention improving the squad. so don't cry remember arsenal already has a stadium and a solid enough team so no need to compare

Ed, what type of forward is Adam Morgan? Carroll/ Torres/ Suarez/ Bent?
Do you reckon he could make it at Anfield? {Ed002's Note - He is 16 - it is far too early to say.}
- - - - - - - - - - -
Not really. I watch a lot of the u18's and he is very similar to Robbie Fowler, he's very good at being in the right place at the right time but also can link up play. 'Poacher' would be the best way to describe him, but he does have more to his game.

##########

as Ed says, its too early to tell. looks a player but so did neil mellor. {Ed001's Note - he is certainly nothing like Fowler was at that age, he was head and shoulders above everyone at 16. Morgan is not in that league whatsoever. Also Fowler was not just a poacher by any means, he could pick a 40yard pass out of thin air, beat defenders with the ball and was deadly with a free kick on the edge of the box. There is just no comparison between the two whatsoever.}

"Is arsenal really worth 788million? when Liverpool was bought for 288m."

To put simply, yes - for the stadium alone. Their club is also in very good nick, whereas ours has been dragged through he dirt for a few years.

Whats your opinion on the extract below Ed? Are Caught off side reliable or full of s**t, would make sense for Kenny to stay on with Villa-Boas as an under study for a year, after all very young Manager to be thrown into the Premiership after one good season with Porto, and lets face it Porto always win everything (most of the time!)??


FC Porto manager Andre Villas-Boas has agreed to become the new Liverpool manager next season.

Gazzetta dello Sport reports the 33-year-old rejected a move to Roma because he has already signed a pre-contract with the Anfield club.

The Portuguese is regarded as the hottest prospect in football management and has been labelled the next Jose Mourinho .

Villas-Boas worked under the Special One at Chelsea but the pair fell out over the differing views on style of play.

He has just won the Portuguese first division title, breaking many of Mourinho s records at the club.

Mourinho s right-hand man at Chelsea, Steve Clarke, is already the number two at Liverpool and is known to be an admirer of Villas-Boas.

Many clubs have been after the Porto boss with Inter Milan and Roma said to be at the head of the queue.

Reports suggest Villas-Boas met Franco Baldini, who has strong ties with Roma, and told him he could not take charge at the Stadio Olimpico because he already had a pre-agreement with Liverpool.

Mourinho has also told Villas-Boas it is too early in his career to move to Italy and that going to the Premier League would be more beneficial.

{Ed002's Note - This has been doing the rounds for a couple of days. I do not see it as being true.}

I'll nail my colours u front. I am a Lucas lover and i have been for over 2 years. Just like to say there is more of fans with me than there was!

- - - - - - -

I would say that most Liverpool fans have been Lucas lovers over the last few seasons. At least that would explain why you would hear them shout F*** Me. Lucas! so often.

The very fact that he splits LFC fans should tell you he's not good enough. He is a lovely lad and I hear he is thought well of at Melwood, and he won Brazilian young player of the year twice, but he is footballing Marmite. We don't and didn't get these arguments, and certainly not over so long a period, over Alonso, Gerrard or Reina.

I like the guy, he's a tryer, he has a good engine and a great attitude, but for playing so long in the premier league, it is absolutely criminal how many times he loses the ball to a back-tracking forward. Out of position or not, this is something he should be eliminating from his game.

Hi all

i think we need not get ahead of ourselves after that great victory against city. yes we did great to beat them but our club still has alot of work to do in terms of investment to reach our goal and that is to win the league. sometimes we hang on to players because of the good they have done with our club and that's what makes us the best fans in the world but if the are not good enough now and over the hill we must let them go and stop being sentimental.

its been many years since we won the league and the hurt is always there when we see another team lifting up the trophy especially this season if the spam break our record.
so lets get behind our team 110% and show fsg that we deserve the best players and we will scream our guts out week in and out when they play.

Bulgarian Red

You do understand that that entire story was fabricated by Niki Mihaylov because the ex-red is seeking a move back to the club and wants to be number one. He is trying to cause a rift between Liverpool fans and Reina. And Idiots like you are gullable enough to believe it. Reina has said he will stay as long as there is investment into the team. He also said he wants to hear his children speak in a Liverpool Accent and he recently signed a 6 year contract. Mihaylov is a vile, disruptive rodent who we are fortunate to be shot of if he is going to pull things like this. Don't even bother posting the c**p that bulgarian w****r of a keeper spouts ever again, because nobody but you, his fellow country man, believes it.

I really do hope that's not true, I was gutted when Owen left us the way he did, just same as Torres did but, its not for those reasons id not want him back. . Its the injury problems. . weve already seen how desparate we become when we lose our 1st team players. we need back ups that will perform not be injured with them!
As astonishing as it is. Id take Torres back for a small fee and a grovelling apology before id take Owen on a free. with the right team and now having seen the grass aint greener elsewhere, i reckon Torres would be back on track. . he doesn't fit the Chelsea team and seems alienated by his 'teammates'.

For around maybe 10-15 million I think he's worth it. He has lots of ability and he's been villa best player all season.
Really like him and hope he gets looked at. 60 minutes a goal down? Someone like him could make slmething Happen.

AND he is English. Tired of all the mediocre foreign crap we've been getting for the past half a dozen years. You look at the wingers we've had in recent years. I think Gonzalez could have been good with more time. Garcia was hot and cold. Kewell was shocking. Zenden. .let's not even go there. Pennant was a convict and rubbish as well. Cisse played on the wing, but was never that good. I'm sure I could go on.

All these hit and miss foreigners (and yes that includes Pennant, he cannot be English). Let's get some good English players in, and I for one agree that Downing fits that bill.

"It also proves why I post ( & most other posters) & you edit Ed. There's no way on earth I would have thought that Spearing had a chance of making it at Anfield but he just might prove us all wrong."

never doubted him for a second, to be honest. He just looks the part. Brute force scouser blood. There's nothing in the world else like it. It is only a matter of time before he is a regular.

All the signings this summer will be players capable of taking us into the top 4. We don't need to go for these big name World players. The Adam's & Jarvis's working hard week in week out and added to what we already have and a great management team will take us up that league. The signings of the next class of champions league player can wait till we are back there. Take a good look at our friends Man City, there's a lesson to be learned there about buying certain types of players. So the kids that are on here posting fantacy lists need to use their savy a bit more.

We need to buy some quality players, I don't think we will be buying players like Man City, but we need to buy 4 or 5 players because we are lacking competition for places, and need to be able to have different options for different games. and we do not have that at the moment, and I am not sure Jarvis, and Adam are those players either, So maybe you should use your savy a bit more, before having a go at the so called kids.

"Micheal owen linked with a return and seen as a ideal back up for caroll and suarez.

NEVER trust that website.
It's the most unreliable source of transfer rumours on the internet.
I think they must get about 1% of rumours right.

With Villas Boas rumours going on i think it's little bit early for us to find a permanent manager. Kenny needs to be with us for @ least one more season so that every would be settled in.
Villas Boas seems little bit young eventhough he is one of the best Young manager in world football, , I will bring him him to Liverpool after two - three seasons.

Ed, whats your thought on Villas Boas ? Do you think that he will join us ? , if joined can he make it in the Premier league.?

{Ed006's Note - Before Kenny came back I was hoping that Villas Boas would join. Now that Kenny is manager I hope that he will be for a few more years to come, I would love to see us win the League with the King in charge. I have recently looked on Boas' twitter and he has said that there is no pre contract agreement and I do understand that he signed a new deal at Porto last season. In a nutshell, I hope he doesn't join us and I don't think he will.}

Okay so what he isn't alexis Sanchez or navas or whatever. Playing at some good foreign club! I think he's quality people got so dissapointed when sky sports linked us to him. . But listen

For around maybe 10-15 million I think he's worth it. He has lots of ability and he's been villa best player all season.

in reply to this :
i entirely agree mate downing would be a quality signing he can play either wing and is proven pl quality alot of the foreign wingers may not be able to take the physicality of the epl shevchenko, morientes, riera, all looked quality in there leagues but lacked what it takes to survive the epl im not saying players like sanchez won't be good but at 50 million its a bit of a risk id rather downing and jarvis both english and both quality we need consistency and these two have been consistently good all season.

LFC-IRE {Ed001's Note - I think Lucas has shown all season he deserves to stay, it is good to see that Spearing is finally starting to deliver on the promise he had as a youngster. Just maybe he can make it after all, though he needs to play like that regularly now. Hopefully the rise in confidence will help him raise his game even further in the future.}

It also proves why I post ( & most other posters) & you edit Ed. There's no way on earth I would have thought that Spearing had a chance of making it at Anfield but he just might prove us all wrong.

He's rubbish. Why waste £10-15m on him when it could be better used on other, better, younger players?

Morning ed
seems like man u have agreed a deal to sign athletico madrids keeper as a replacement for van de sar next season.
do you still think they couldn't afford reina like i suggest yesterday.
rafa is almost nailed on to takeover in the close season and pepe reina will be his number one target.
as for given signing i know you don't rate him but who would you suggest?

{Ed006's Note - Manuel Nueur? Maarten Stekelenburg? There are better keepers than Given but none better than Reina.}

 

 

 

 

13 Apr 2011 01:25:33
Well, hope everyone enjoyed Carroll's goals last night!
Maybe now people will be a little more positive about him & give him a chance to settle in!
He didn't set the £35m price after all!
Anyone miss Torres now?
Not me!
It's beginning to look like we carried the lad the past season or two!
I know he'll probably find some form over next season but he'll never be what he was i reckon!
I genuinely believe he is regretting leaving us right about now!
Who wouldn't love to play with Suarez & Carroll on current form?!
And the summer should bring a few more big names too.
Bring on next season!
I cannot wait! ! !
Cheers,
Irish Kev.

I know this will cause massive debate and strong feelings but with Torres struggling to get on the score sheet at Chelsea would everyone accept him back say for example Liverpool could secure his services for £25-30m? Means a return of £20m return on his tranfer fee and 3 great strikers on the books?

25-30 mill is more than we paid for suarez so no.

ED with the regards to the left back situation what do you think of Robinson? Ive seen a few youth games and he seems every bit as good as Flanagan, obviously he isn't ready for 40 games a season but do you think hes ready to come in and play a part as Flanno did last night? Also how is Insua getting on in Greece? Ive always been a fan of his and i still think he could be a top class left back if he gets his fitness sorted. I honestly don't see the need for a new left back with these 2 on the books and also Glen Johnson and Aurelio in the squad. Your thoughts?

Away from the left back situation, id love us to get Cavani {Ed001's Note - I like Robinson, he is as good as Flanagan in my opinion, but he does need time. As for Insua, last I heard he was in Turkey, but not exactly impressing massively.}

{Ed001's Note - yes, you probably haven't heard of them though, they are a relatively unknown team that favour the old pass and move system. Play in Spain, known as Barcelona.}

nice sense of sarcasm ed i like it but if we could get back to that way would be good.i think if we signed hazard sanchez and llorente you would have a heart attack but hey wishful thinking(players not heart attack)DORSET RED {Ed001's Note - we have shown signs of getting there lately, give Kenny and SC a good pre-season to work with the players and I think we will be a totally different side.}
