Use our rumours form to send us liverpool transfer rumours.

08 Jun 2011 23:22:35
There's no way Jones'd fail the medical and then go on to play for u21. People are referring to his hamstring/knee problem; but Aquilani passed his medical with an unhealed broken ankle. I cant believe some Liverpool fans are still bitter about it. If Jones picked United over us, there's no point feeling fustrated. He is a good player alright, but we dont need players with that attitudes. Get over it. I hope we move for Dann. A Scouser, a Liverpool fan; he'll understand the meaning of putting on that red shirt.u

ferguson has a transfers list which says "just target liverpool targets"!!!, scared coz were on the up.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:19:41
Ezequiel Garay, only 24, is ready to leave madrid after his 3 season there and only 25 league games. He wants first team football. Could this be a potential target for LFC? I think he'd be a cracking buy at just under 10mil. [Hopefully]. What do you think ed? Do you rate him as a CB?

T-Dog. {Ed001's Note - have only ever seen him picking splinters out of his backside sorry.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:19:18
Esradio reporting that Aguero agreed in principle to join lfc after copa america - from tweetland

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:15:01
Ed davide santon is on free transfer have we not looked at him to cover lb, i thought he was really good {Ed001's Note - he is not on a free transfer, confusion arose because his loan contract expired, but his Inter contract has a couple of years left yet.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:11:28
I am of the opinion that we should be off-loading the fringe players who are surplus to requirements, ie the usual suspects, Poulsen, Konchesky, Jovanovic, maybe even Cole and perhaps three or four others who have had a chance and failed to take it. I think we should cut our losses and just ship them out!
Yes, we LFC fans want to see quality signing but not too many simply because we have the likes of Flanagan, Kelly, Spearing, Shelvey, Suso, Morgan, Ngoo, Sterling etc who have proved already or are only a season who two at the most away from making an impact on the first team squad. How disheartening must it be for the likes of Kelly, Flanagan etc etc when other people are signed who perhaps are no better than them!! Sign only World Class players Kenny!! I am pleased we signed Henderson, he does seem highly rated but we don't need to sign too many who have yet to set the Premiership alight.

Boycott sky sports news all they want to do is report on man utd.Even mediocre players transfers like wes brown and darren gibson get a mention before hendersons.Well done to the b.b.c for standing up to fergie in the past.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:07:23
More information coming out on Phil Jones' failed medical at Man Utd. Apparently the detailed tests reveal he has a heart.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:05:27
Ed hears a good 1 for ye ave you heard anything about Martin Kelly getting filled in on his hols apparently he's an absolute whopper(slow isn't the word...butty short of a picnic) he was in marbella recently and he was trying to get funny with a mate of mine giving it the "do u know how much I'm on?" and was saying "watch me next year that right backs mine flanno can't even cross I'm the fastest in the squad" anyway he was winding him up do he got a few slaps have u's heard anything of the sort about this or even wat he's like!
The 96 YNWA! {Ed001's Note - I never really had any dealings with him, he was just a kid last time I was around the squad and I can't say I would have even noticed him or remembered him if he hadn't been pointed out to me as a star of the future.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:05:16
Boycott sky sports news all they are interested in is man utd.Well done to the b.b.c who stood up to fergie.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:05:15
its not wishful thinking for me lol i hope he does go to that scum cos then they have wasted £16 mill on a player whos gunna be on their bench all time he wont push vidic and ferdinand out of the 1st team no chance, he will be on bench for atleast 2-3 years, hes made a bad decision he woulda been better off sticking with blackburn than go to them

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:01:30
ed, this is not about the current transfer window but about the general business on the site. my question is: have you ever got a big rumour in here that turned out to be true though there wasn't much noise before? {Ed001's Note - I used to keep a list of rumours that came true in the early days, there was a long list of them back then. Recently they seem to have got lost in the general fantasy stuff and go unnoticed most of the time. I did get it right about Jones having the choice of United, Spurs and Arsenal as well as us earlier if that counts?}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 23:00:37
A while ago we talked about introducing a new page listing who we're interested in along with other associated info. Any news on that? Ed? {Ed001's Note - it is just time, we are making a number of changes and moving all the sites onto a new server etc. Finding the time to update it and put it all together is proving difficult.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:55:31
Henderson to take Gerrards role in the midfield, with Gerrard taking a more advanced attacking role.

Gerrard will be used less in defensive midfield to avoid injury.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:54:31
always a red {Ed001's Note - I wasn't actually referring to just Carroll mate, but I couldn't resist adding in the little gag about falling off stools.}

Apart form anything the infamous Gazza has done, Carroll falling off a bar stool drunk must be the dumbest, funniest way a footballer has got injured. At least when i do it i'm not off work lol.

It looks like its going to be a very busy summer, so good luck to all the ed's.

always a red

Re Phil Jones
Oliver Kay at the times
"For those asking re Phil Jones #MUFC deal, he's just arrived at England U21 camp and he's in high spirits. "Rumour" appears to be rubbish"
Suggesting he hasnt failed his medical at the scum.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:51:54
Just because Phil Jones has supposedly failed his medical dosn't really mean we have a chance. He will still want to sign for Man U anyway

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:51:37
Are the reports that radio merseyside saying Henderson failed medical true?? Eds???
Bean {Ed001's Note - nope sorry.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:51:19
Sorry lads, Jones signed for utd. Pics of him signing wit david Gill on MUTV

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:50:17
Eds why do you post all this crap about Ken Aguero, its just boring, its bad enough with the saddos playing FIFA manager and posting there fantasies, without the Ben Elton wannabies, trying and failing to be funny. {Ed001's Note - sorry but it brings back good memories for me.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:49:34
Ed to many other fans coming on to this page stirring things up as is happening with other fans pages is there any way yee can put together something that you can only post on your clubs page but you can only view other teams pages {Ed001's Note - it is a site for people to talk about Liverpool rather than a site for just Liverpool fans.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:49:25
Eds, its been bugging me all day, can you just tell me when will Jordan Henderson become ano official Liverpool player, because as far as I know only a fee has been agreed. Thanks. {Ed001's Note - just waiting on Ngog to agree now.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:48:05
Mata is going to be joining ManU. Fergie has been in talks with him for a few weeks and before you start I am LFC Fan
-----------------------------------
Where you say: "I am LFC fan", you miss the word "a" which probably means your Chinese; and therefore, a Man Utd fan.

CL x

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:47:02
It doesn't matter who you lot sign, Henderson Mata etc etc you won't be in contension next year, cause we've got Webb & Mason & Sky in the bag and that what counts at the end of the day ha ha ha!!!

Red Alexis

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:46:12
even if he has failed his medical then man united will jus tell him to wait and re do the medical at later date give him chance to get fit and that

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:44:56
08 Jun 2011 21:34:15
Good news gents just come back frombmy birds nans house who lives in Stockbridge village so I drive past melwood and who did I see coming out of the tescos by there none other than Ken aguero with Kenny dalglish carrying a what seemed to be a multipack of quavers. Not to sure what it could mean but I'm going to have a guess that he's signed and going to be our new 69
---------------------------------
Mate ur on the right lines but Ken is a "smoke screen' so to speak it's actually his little bro Kin. Kin is the best kept secret in football and Liverpool hope to tie the deal up with an audacious bid of Doritos big eat bag and a sweetener of a 500ml coke for his current club.

In the know

Irish RED ( obviously bored)

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:44:08
If Jones failed is medical at scum, why are u even considering LFC still wanting him???

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:43:05
Alonso, to sign for us again, July 1st i've had premonition

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:42:33
08 Jun 2011 22:05:00
Will all those who keep saying Mata (or anyone from overseas) will sign in the next couple of days please stop. The international transfer window does not open until July 1st
___________________________

How can you rate this as "unbelievable" when its a fact. You can't sign foreign players until July 1st.

___________________________

How many times do peaople have to explain this, a transfer can be agreed before the international window but the actual transfer itself can not happen until the window opens on the 1st July. ie: i cud sign mr ihaveno knowledge today from spain but he could not actually be apart of my squad until the 1st July. Got this now???

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:40:25
anyone know what number jordan henderson is for lfc

Number 69. Also, it looks like it is a sad day for (Rubber) Johnny Evans.

P.s does anyone know the odds for N'gog to be the league's top goalscorer next year?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:39:12
radio lancashire have reported jones failed medical at man u, hes cartridge op he had, not sure if its deffo true

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:38:40
Hey Ed.

During the second half of the season nobody guessed or mentioned Henderson would be signing which is good coz the club are keeping everything quiet. Everybody were talking about Adam, Enrique, Young.......but Henderson wasn't named. You think there'll be more surprise signings coming our way and how much more money you think we'll spend?

Thanks Ed - doing great job with the site! {Ed001's Note - wouldn't be a surprise if I knew! I did expect a net figure of between 20 and 30 million, but who knows what it could end up being now, I certainly expect the gross to break our records. And I expect surprises, I don't think Kenny is done pulling rabbits out of hats just yet.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:38:16
Gervinho confirmed that he is leaving lille to come to England. Any chance of us getting him?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:38:10
{Ed001's Note - the money is terrible, I keep getting told it would be possible to make a lot more by chasing up advertisers etc. American sites pay much better, they pay for me to live, the footie sites pay for themselves and a little bit left over to upgrade them all the time, which is all I want out of them to be honest. If I just wanted to spend my days getting advertisers in I have no doubt that it would be easily possible to pay a mortgage. We are getting over 300k hits a day across all the sites now. My advice would be to find something that attracts Americans to view if you decide to make a site of your own. They click more ads and the ads pay more, so it is win win!}
============================

Not sure how google ads thingy work, but I would imagine if you get yourself a couple of ad links to betting sites you will get far more clicks ..(if you cant get betting sites , then you can never go wrong with porn sites :)
Roy {Ed001's Note - they all want links but aren't willing to pay enough.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:37:54
ed, i think that a lot of the players we are rumoured to be buying eg downing, nzogbia Dann etc are very average and wouldn't get into any top 4 team. Do you reckon we are aiming for better players than this or are we settling for average? {Ed001's Note - I think we are buying the players Kenny feels will improve the team. If he has faith in them, then I have faith in them.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:36:40
phil jones medical failed by the rumours if its true then HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAAAAAAAAA to manchester united lol its probably why the long wait for an announcement lol

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:36:23
M Kelly is a much better player than p jones , well over rated just like a young ! Much better players around !

08 Jun 2011 22:12:52
Ed why the delay in announcing for certain jordan henderson has signed ? {Ed001's Note - I am told it is just waiting on Ngog.}
----------
Sounds like the beginning of last season Liverpool dependant on ngog. What happens if his deal doesnt go through by the way??do we pay more money or does the whole deal fall through?? {Ed001's Note - should be more money.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:29:46
just want to say all the talk about what these transfers take out of our "budget" or "kitty" (kinda a weird word in my opinion but i digress) is off-base. FSG doesn't do the traditional, "here's X pounds, go spend as you wish." it is very much a case by case basis on each potential transfer

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:28:05

Ed, do you think that Kenny has got some more surprise tricks up his sleeve on a few transfers??

ToonRed {Ed001's Note - yes, very much so.}

care to elaborate on who ed i got a feelin this is goin to be a massive pre season for us

cheers kopman {Ed001's Note - I just mean it is all so close lipped now, no one is going to have any advance warning.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:19:43
Ed mate, there's rumours that Phil Jones has failed his medical?
What consequences could that have?

Thanks
Stu. {Ed001's Note - he wouldn't be signing for them if he did. I saw a funny message posted about that just a second ago: Owen Hargreaves and Michael Owen passed medicals. Is Phil Jones dead?}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:18:08
with all this talk about transfers and big money signings, is there any news of any Asian or American players being looked at, as FSG were looking to promote the Liverpool Brand accross the USA and also accros Asia as we have a large fan base there?

This would be a goos move as mechandising would bring in vast amounts of revenue helping to balance the books big time.

08 Jun 2011 22:15:48
Hi eds, what is your opinion of the defensive quality of some of the left backs we have been linked with, i.e., Vargas, Enrique, etc? {Ed001's Note - left backs do not seem to be able to defend any more, it seems to be accepted that teams play a midfielder to cover instead. I don't get it myself! Hopefully the coaches will improve whoever comes in, after all Glen Johnson suddenly learned how to defend.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:14:04
Ken Aguero? Is he Kun's brother?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:13:50
we need to rememnber we can afford the transfer fees an the wages for any player but every world class player or young player we bid for others r also biddin so they will choose a team in the CL.lets not get carried away our goal is top 4 we need players who want to play for us an will get us ther.

ed whats going on with jones is he having dinner with the mancs!!! longest medical in history.

Tomsy {Ed001's Note - I have no idea why these things take so long, it is odd because he has left Manchester already.}
----------------------------------------------------------------

longest medical: demba ba at stoke or suarez for us. took ages.

Hendersen deal worth 16million not twenty dont think anyone goin other way as sunderland want a united striker and crouch above ngog

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:06:48
Mata is going to be joining ManU. Fergie has been in talks with him for a few weeks and before you start I am LFC Fan
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
how many wingers will he buy (after ashley young) although he still needs a goalkeeper and a replacement for scholes? i know he wants to ruin our parade but that seems over the top.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 22:06:30
Some people have said Henderson is a waste of money and not good enough as a future replacement for Gerrard. In my view Henderson is young, English and has great potential and at the moment there is no-one better to replace Stevie G. We might aswell spend the 16m now rather than wait till he's worth twice that amount. Have faith in King Kenny.

To the person who said 'Leighton Baines is an everton fan'. You have no idea. He supported Liverpool as a kid an still does now, doesnt mean he will come to us but I know there is strong interest from Man City and Bayern Munich. Then Liverpool, Arsenal and Man Utd are keen on him but dont want too pay the £20m. Inside source, 110% reliable.
LFC1802 {Ed001's Note - my aunt works at Goodison and she assures me he is an Everton fan, can you provide back up to prove he is a red? Only I really want to tell her that he is a Liverpool fan!!!}

when he was signed at wigan, he admitted he was a liverpool fan this was what he said........

"As a boy I supported... Liverpool. As a local lad I used to watch from The Kop when Robbie Fowler was making his name. I started out at Liverpool's Centre of Excellence and although it was disappointing when nothing came of it, I was lucky that both Wigan and Wolves wanted to sign me" {Ed001's Note - thank you very much, I can't wait to mention that to her, she will be gutted.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:46:27
more speculation than rumour but maybe phil jones had a medical at melwood(the other day when given the tour) and then went to old Trafford for another today with him still undecided on which shade of red he wants to be wearing next season

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:45:54
Long time reader, first time poster - for a bit of sport and to give credibility to those who deserve it - could the eds please repost the first three or so attributable posts that mentioned Jordan Henderson as a possible target (including eds responses) and what the date was. If possible do this everytime a player is confirmed or at least in final stages of agreement / medical. Cheers Glen {Ed001's Note - I wish I could mate but I don't have time to search for them sorry.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:43:24
{Ed001's Note - I do try to be here as much as possible, it is just trying to find editors to cover the other sites now so I can devote more to here.}

I'll do it !! Ill cover the mancs site - All
's I have to do is just keep telling them they're sh*ite

navvi {Ed001's Note - I am sure they appreciate the offer.....}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:42:24
Javi Martinez and Juan Mata will be Liverpool players buy July. Charlie Adam is going to Manchester utd along with Phil Jones and Ashley Young. Vargas will also sign in July. Awaiting Conner Wickham and Scott Dann to sign by the end of next week.

Daniel Hanwell YNWA Were back next season.

P.s there is alot of rumours concerning a big money signing.

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

I would be happy with those signings, Adam is not good enough for me. As mentioned before Santon would be a good signing at left back as well, young and talented.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:42:10
anyone checked man utd website, doesnt say they have agreed a fee for jones, all it sais is there is rumours he is having a medical lol. henderson has stil not signed, im thinking something went wrong.

08 Jun 2011 21:38:59
to the person who said Baines is an everton fan is completely wrong!! he only signed for everton because it was his grandads dream for him to play for the blues! Baines has always been a LFC fan!! Would be a great signing for us!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:35:54
Hi ed sure you've been asked this loads, but what the heck is happening with Henderson? Thanks keep fighting the lfc course xx {Ed001's Note - done deal.}

08 Jun 2011 21:32:28
Its good now we have henderson quality player, upcoming star, except. why would we buy adam and downing, it even says on the LFC website, downing, adam after henderson or something like that, id rather one or the other, and mine would be adam, ed ??? {Ed001's Note - Downing and Adam play completely different positions, I would rather Downing for the wing than Adam!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:30:43
to the person who wrote,

"king kenny is spending most of his budget on henderson and will turn to the free transfers"

£20 mil from the £50 given + whatever is sold, is not most of his budget, i think if the player is good enough he can easily go over budget,

we dont need Adam, Aqua man deserves a crack,

Left back should be top priority now.

and then the wings, to provide our star studded front line.

prem proven,

Lb, Enrique

Rw, Bentley.

Lw, n'zogbia or downing

08 Jun 2011 21:21:23
Evening eds , what formation do you think kenny will opt for next season. I, ve been watching the mighty reds video 87 /88 season and kenny just let the midfield and attacking players roam, as long as they get back when they lose the ball . will he try this next year .cheers psv {Ed001's Note - I think he will do the same, a nominal 4-4-2 but with loads of freedom.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:21:10
Leighton Baines is an Everton fan. But that doesnt mean he won't come to us, so you are half right.
---------------------------------------
He is completely right, Baines is a Liverpool fan, 100% he has admitted it several times in interviews, I can the actual quotes if you want.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:20:54
hi ed, what are the chances of charlie adam signing for us or is he going to scum {Ed001's Note - not even he knew before he went on holiday mate.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:20:01
hey eds, im sorry if you have been asked this a lot of times, but dont get me wrong im chuffed with bought henderson but do you think he will become good and worth the price? cheers eds :) {Ed001's Note - yes, I have no doubts he will be fantastic for us. It must be remembered he has a fantastic attitude, unlike certain other players I could mention he doesn't drink. He is not going to be falling off bar stools etc. He is very professional.}

Downing is s**te, will be v/ disappointed if we sign him over mata.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:19:21
hi guys, im getting a feeling that there has been a problem with this henderson transfer. he has been at melwood for so long now, nothing comfirmed and apparently he has to be in denmark tonight in order to be training with u21s at 10 am tomorrow. my feeling is liverpool will only buy him if ngog goes to sunderland because i cannot see us paying £20 million cash, very unusual it has taken so long. also no reports of jones at man utd or even signing. we might be surprised by tomorow morning.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:17:17
To the poster who said Leighton Baines is a blue I can assure you mate he's not he was always a red he used to have a Liverpool clock on his bedroom wall...how do I know I seen it!
The 96 YNWA!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:17:07
"Mata is going to be joining ManU"

That's a bummer if that is true. They get him and we get over priced steady eddy Downing.Henderson is a decent buy but to lose Jones and Mata to the scum is disappointing.
Hopefully better news to come but I think this illustrates the pull of European football.

Just heard whiskey nose bouught jones to stop us gettin him n arsenal gettin samba what a nob, hope he dont go afta any of our other targets like owen or morientes!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:07:22
To the person who said 'Leighton Baines is an everton fan'. You have no idea. He supported Liverpool as a kid an still does now, doesnt mean he will come to us but I know there is strong interest from Man City and Bayern Munich. Then Liverpool, Arsenal and Man Utd are keen on him but dont want too pay the £20m. Inside source, 110% reliable.
LFC1802 {Ed001's Note - my aunt works at Goodison and she assures me he is an Everton fan, can you provide back up to prove he is a red? Only I really want to tell her that he is a Liverpool fan!!!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:07:06
why do u eds keep sayin we wont sign ash young now that we have jordan henderson? henderson plays centre mid not on the left or the right side of mid field!!!! {Ed001's Note - no editor has said Young's signing is anything to do with Henderson.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:04:39
Liverpool have made a bid of 9.7 million euros for Arda Turan.
=======================
source? Not hard to atleast tell us where you got the information from.

T-Dog. {Ed001's Note - depends on what source it was, if it was a friend said something that he shouldn't have it is hard to reveal...}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:41:58
Hey ed,
What would you think of warnock returning as first choice left back for one or two years until our younger players are fully developed? He would be fairly cheap, can defend and as an added bonus would sweat blood for the shirt. Any thoughts?
Thanks, Matlock. {Ed001's Note - I don't know, I would rather him than Enrique or Baines that much I do know.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:40:04
So with the prospect of Spearing, Lucas, Henderson, Gerrard vying for the central midfield slots and assuming Poulsen has the door hit him on the arse on the way out (hopefully it won't hit Aquilani as he'll be injured for 6 months); do you think Meireles will be sold Ed's?

Also read that Henderson was around £20m but now only £16m on Sky sports - do you know what we're asking for Ngog?

Thanks

Hoola {Ed001's Note - I think there has to be a question mark over Meireles and Gerrard, I expect them both to stay for next season though myself. I have no idea what the final figures were for Ngog, but it wouldn't have been under 5m I am sure.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:03:59
Message for Ed001. This is by no means a dig at the other Ed's but I have noticed a distinct change in atmosphere on this site in the last few days. Even throughout what must be the most hectic of times you seem to have time for most questions. I have been observing your site for a couple of years now and I am guessing you are the originator and it shows. You give a creditable insight to what is going on and whether it pans out or not is no way your fault. Your comments are very appreciated. The site has in some ways become a victim of it's own success and it must be incredibly hard to maintain what you set out to do. As I said before this is not a rant or a whinge with regard to the other Ed's as I know you all give up your free time to manage this fantastically addictive site. The one request I do have though is, workload permitting, could you please spend a bit more time with your fellow LFC fans if possible as the sun doesn't shine quite so brightly when you are not around.
Cornish Red {Ed001's Note - I do try to be here as much as possible, it is just trying to find editors to cover the other sites now so I can devote more to here.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 21:01:33
When will Henderson pass medical and sign, it's getting silly now. A medical for a day??

08 Jun 2011 20:06:40
Any updates on jones ed? {Ed001's Note - according to United's official Chinese site Jones has signed a 5 year deal at the club.}

the chinese site hahaha, , , all media hype so far nothing official, no pics no videos, atleast with henderson there is a video of him at melwood in lfc gear lol jones there is nothing at all but medias word

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:57:42
Maybe it's just me, but it seems like every time we make a big signing someone else is trying to sh1t on our parade. We sign Suarez - Torres gets on his bike, we sign Henderson - Whiskey nose steals Jones. Jeez! Give us a break! Still, a promising start to the summer... I think :D

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:53:52
Any chance we can go for Ezequiel Garay as he wants to leave Real Madrid?
And my personal view: i think we will go the same way Dortmund did: young, local talents fit into fast attacking football. Not stars names but great perfect working team.
What you think about it?
Great addictive site eds!!! Thanks

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:52:56
What position does henderson play. I know it is centre midfield or right midfield but is he competing for Gerrard's spot or Lucas spot

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:51:05
Ed ur right ive jst found it on a the net jones signs 5 yr deal worth £80,000 wk !! Suppose itz gud news really bcuz we dont want or deserve to b second choice to nobody, so utd have won 2 out d 3 head to heads, i.e jones n young but we gt Henderson!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:31:01
Hi eds, few questions:

Who is our next target?
How far is the doni deal along?
Who is the most likely left back?

Thanks so much, bet its been a busy day for you, site is absolutely brilliant

Thanks

Mac {Ed001's Note - I am not sure who is next, maybe Wickham. Doni is just a matter of him agreeing personal terms and having a medical. Most likely left back seems to be Vargas. Busy is not the word!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:27:03
Ed, in your opinion what CB do you think KD will go after now after Jones joined Manchester United. If you could can you name the chances of signing: Dann, Sakho, Angel, Mata, Adam, Wickham {Ed001's Note - I think it looks likely to be Dann or maybe Musacchio.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:44:51
Leighton Baines is a self confessed die hard Liverpool fan, not an everton fanHe is from South Dean in kirkby and Liverpool is and always will be his boyhood club and im guessing he'd jump at the chance to join the team that Dalglish is building.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:39:34
very happy with the henderson signing thought the scum had him earmarked as paul scholes replacement... as for phil jones gutted we missed out on him but for an extra 2 mil we could prob get sakho who is top class....now we have signed henderson i think we have too many centre mids so we def dont need charlie adam...we need a left back a winger nd a winger/striker type of player (mata hopefully) lets not forget the youth we have coming up either with flanagan robbo kelly coady wisdom suso nd sterling all going to be top class players...maybe next year will be too soon for some of them but they will be class...the future is bright the future is red YNWA

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:36:27
So Phil Jones chooses Man Utd & not LFC...
Comoli out? ;D

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:35:07
Jones will not be at Melwood cos he's signing for Utd - we will sign Scott Dann instead. KK also wants Leighton Baines as he looks to sign players with a passion for the club.
----------------------------------------

Leighton Baines is an Everton fan. But that doesnt mean he won't come to us, so you are half right.

Since when is Baines an Everton fan?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:33:26
Yes, cheerio N'Gog. Cheers mate. Stick 2 extra weetabix in at brekkie and you'll do very well

{Ed001's Note - the money is terrible, I keep getting told it would be possible to make a lot more by chasing up advertisers etc.

This is easy dude, just collect up all the bulls**t that most of the posters come up with and sell it as fertilizer. Yer home in Daddy's yacht!! {Ed001's Note - love your thinking mate, I will be in the Bahamas by the end of the month!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:30:04
i'd like to put some money down that jones' agent wakes up with a severed horse head in his sheets courtesy of KK, Commolli, and Co.

enjoy your united wage packet phil. hope you read the clause where it states "giggsy" and "roo" get to tag team your wife or girlfriend. pure united class

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:18:18
Can some of you stop posting Mata to sign in two or three days etc. this goes for all players playing in a different league, the international transfer window is not open until July 1st. Also, why come on the site to get angry with the Ed's for trying to give you as accurate of information as they can, you don't have to read the posts, but seeing as you do I imagine you enjoy it, why not thank the Ed's for their time? It's lame that I have to read through all your negative posts to find posts I'm interested in.

To win the league, we don't just have to beat other football teams, we have to defeat the institutionalised scum narrative lazy print media, biased refs, Ratboy TV, and jealous, sniping, glove puppet managers.

To win the league, we will have to put away every team, big and small, with equal venom, so no more November laugh-in draws against West Ham.

We will need every player to be fit and focussed, for every game.

This is what it takes to be winners. We have forgotten this. We took it for granted and when our eyes were off the ball over Hillsborough, it left us.

If we invest now, and eclipse 2 ageing teams to take our pace at the top of the league, we will be ideally placed when TV rights get devolved to individual clubs. When this happens, us and teh scum will be the new Real and Barca. We already generate more cash worldwide than we get back from Rat TV.. (global audience for us vs. scum is 600m-700m)

So don't be surprised when the cash gets splashed, because now is the time to be doing it. And.....take a look around...we're not the only ones....

Looks like the mancs have jones wud of lovin him in our squad ed's who do you think are our realistic targets are now for the back? I see Harry gangsta redknapp was on ssn say them and other top clubs wer in for jones my god he is a mouth peice!! And who cares if rafa didn't take the villa job post it on the villa site top job ed's ta! Jay dublin {Ed001's Note - I am glad Redknapp said that because it confirmed the info I was sharing had at least some truth in it. Realistic targets must be Dann and Musacchio.}

ssn rafa won't become villa manager
Eoghan

so they think, they dont know for sure dont forget they contacted him, he wont turn them down cos he wants a job in england and villa is the only possible english club right now for him

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:10:29
Very positive news getting Henderson, though i cannot understand why we would still be after Adam unless daglish is planning to use a 4-3-3 formation most of the time.
Gerrard, Mereiles, Lucas, Henderson, Spearing, and Adam who all play CM.

Any idea if any of our CM are likely to be sold or loaned out ED? Also do you think Jones is choosing United over us, and if so is Dann second choice.

Thanks for any response, keep up the good work.

-Canadian Red {Ed001's Note - I think Shelvey is likely to go out on loan. Yes it looks like Jones has made the wrong choice. As for Dann I don't know, sorry.}

Baines is actually (supposedly) a Liverpool fan. He's one of a number of players who have been fans of one half played for another (Carragher, Fowler etc. for us and Ablett for them)

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:07:12
ed, why hasnt the Henderson deal been announced yet? {Ed001's Note - I don't know why it takes so long, probably just awaiting medical results.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 20:06:33
Quite a few tweets going around that Jones was only listening to offers at ManU. He has spoken to us, ManU & Ars and will decide after U21's. Interesting if true.

Can't wait to see the ManU page when this is confirmed! lol

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:59:57
my prefered wingers we have been linked with would definately be A.Johnson and Mata. Would there be a chance of getting bot of these Eds? cheers {Ed001's Note - I doubt we would go for both, you have to remember we have Sterling.}

Can I just say thank you to David N'gog for never complaining and trying his best.....sure he crapped his kegs every time he was near a defender but he tried and scored a few goals along the way (even if there mainly against teams from the Ukraine) THANK-YOU David YNWA -Mc

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:56:02
i posted on hear earlier and got slated for saying henderson was very average, so i took a look at some of his highlights, i have no doubt we have signed a very very average player, he would fetch 3 mill at the most on the continent, if this is the type of quality we, re gonna attract then we may as well give up now, and i, m def no manc scum bag, just sayin what i see, whos next? lee carsley???

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:53:56
Ed,

Do you think KK is leading the other managers on a merry dance? Seems to me that he moved on Henderson in stealth mode. Jones was close and seemed arry, wenger and AF came in late. Varane was known to be Utd's choice for 8-10M but it looks like KK forced AF's hand. Now do we go back after Varane and see does Wenger budge. I personally think LFC are after Sakho. Dann will come as cover and in the event of only signing one, Kelly will make the move to CB. Agger to Barca for Jeffren and Bojan could be a great piece of business. Makes sense as Agger would be well suited to their style.
Downing for LW and cover {Ed001's Note - I think myself that someone, probably Jones' agent, tipped off people that he was looking round Melwood yesterday. Knowing that anyone interested would jump in immediately and he could then get the lad a bigger deal somewhere else. Only Spurs, United and Arsenal all jumped in last night, it is very unusual for so many teams to move on a player all at once.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:53:47
Since when is Leighton Baines an Everton fan? {Ed001's Note - always, the confusion arose because he used to play for us as a kid.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:53:18
doni, dann, enrique, adam, mata, wickham, jeffren add these to the squad (Including henderson) we will do well what do you think ed {Ed001's Note - I would be happy in the main with those, still would rather not waste money on Enrique though.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:53:03
Who needs new players when we have Jesus Fernandez Suso!!! YNWA!!! BEST SIGNING OF THE DECADE!!!
Daniel Hanwell

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:51:34
We got 7 million for Ngog just been on Talksport well done reds still can't believe that.

57 million for Crying Arse Torres and useless Ngog great business.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:49:19
Hi ED. Do you think Kaka might be the big buy midfielder that we will look at getting since he was told by Real Madrid that he could leave? Honda might be another transfer {Ed001's Note - no, I really can't see anyone wanting to meet his wage demands.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:46:06
rafa wont be nxt villa manager

kopace........think sky made it up that he would be anyway lol

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:46:05
Manchester united must save millions of pounds each year because they don't need scouts they just see who we are interested in and jump on them when we are not looking done it with ronaldo, vidic, Ashley young and now phil jones and people say he has an " eye for talent" haha behave

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:45:29
20 mil for Henderson, you are being robbed , he, s worth 4mil max. he cannot cross a ball higher than 3 feet, runs around like a headless chicken most of the time, dare not shoot at goal , 5 goals in 79 first team games is a crap return for a attacking midfielder.for 20 mil i would drive him down to lfc myself.so thanks for the money in the bank . relieved SAFC fan!!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:44:45
Ed01, interesting point you made in addressing the wum earlier about starting up his own website etc...

But I'm actually interested in this notion, can I ask if the money you make on this site is enough to pay the mortgage so to speak?
And has revenue increased since doing each football clubs separate fan page?
If not why not ed?hope to see you knocking bannatyne of his dragons perch one day mate:)

Ps keep up the good work boss {Ed001's Note - the money is terrible, I keep getting told it would be possible to make a lot more by chasing up advertisers etc. American sites pay much better, they pay for me to live, the footie sites pay for themselves and a little bit left over to upgrade them all the time, which is all I want out of them to be honest. If I just wanted to spend my days getting advertisers in I have no doubt that it would be easily possible to pay a mortgage. We are getting over 300k hits a day across all the sites now. My advice would be to find something that attracts Americans to view if you decide to make a site of your own. They click more ads and the ads pay more, so it is win win!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:44:19
Was Henderson on the plane or has he agreed personal terms yet? Also if the Jones deal goes through will we still be after a CB in your opinion and if so who do think and what are there chances?

Great site btw {Ed001's Note - he stayed and has signed now.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:41:00
Hi ed has United or Blackburn confirmed that the player actually had a medical or anything? {Ed001's Note - United have announced the signing of Jones in Chinese on their Chinese website, no I don't know why there either!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:37:19
if phil jones was supposedly having a medical surely by now it would of been completed and an announcement would of been made by now!!!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:36:38
Just want to say how great it is to see us involved in so much transfer speculation. So what if united get Jones? least it was us that put them into the position of having to make a move a lot earlier than they would have liked to (usually last hour of window). I'm sure Kenny and Commolli have plenty of other targets and we're going to have a very busy summer as a result. Respect to the owners too, if they're prepared to pay this much for developing talents I get goosebumps thinking how much they'd be prepared to spend on proven talent that fits the criteria...Aguero and Mata would fit the bill perfectly!!!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:36:24
I think I'm right that Jones actually hasn't decided which club to join as yet?

So there is a slight chance that he may choose us still.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:36:03
Are we still looking at CB now that Jones has gone to Man U or we were just interested because of his availability and Arsenal and Man U sniffing around. Are we interested in Sakho, Garay? In your view and opinion who's the most likely top 3 CB Kenny could be after

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:33:54
Hi Eds,
If Rafa gets Villa job, I don't think he'll give old purple nose the heat of his p!ss let alone Ashley Young :p FACT !!!

And to the bloke who said we are all following the sane team, ease the negativity, the future is bright, the future is KK !!!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:31:38
just a question ed cant see official statement from anybody jones has actually put pen to paper if scum had agreed fee with blackburn and gained permission to get jones in for medical and terms why has it took all day surely something should have been released by now

mystic red {Ed001's Note - the Chinese version of the United website has announced the signing, does that make it official or not? I have no idea!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:31:33
Is there any chance at either of dortmund's two center halves, Hammels or Subotic? As one site said, why not offer Skrtel plus 30 or 35 million for the both. Would be our starting back line for the next decade.

The ikahn

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:31:16
hi edds can you tell me what is going on with phil jones was he on the plane to denmark or is he at man u and when will they let us no about henderson is all done
thanks edds
lee {Ed001's Note - Jones didn't fly out to Denmark, despite England reporting he was to fly out with the squad. So either he got hooked off the plane or they got it wrong. The Henderson deal is just awaiting the results of the medical, the Suarez deal dragged on too if you remember? It is just because medicals are so thorough these days. It's done now though!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:30:57
Just a thought, if we are spending this type
of money on players like Henderson which I think is still a squad player for now how much money is really available for the big name players to whom we are chasing behind closed doors, seem like good times ahead for us.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:30:05
Our kenny, who art in Anfield, hallowed be thy game.The king is come ur number 1, On turf tho ur number 7. Give us today our paisley red and forgive us our gillettes and hicks.As we forgive those whose greed was set against us.And lead us not into relegation, but deliver us from man u.For now that the kings come the power and the glory forever be ever 12th man.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:30:00
Hey Ed's, just a quick word about the press. It amazes me how the majority of the press are negative towards liverpool, i am constantly seeing this accross the newspapers, SSN and other outlets. Just wanted to point out the fact that the Henderson deal is signiffciantly lower on the BBC site than the Jones to United story, despite our deal being of higher value and equally as big news. Any thoughts on the media perception of LFC? {Ed001's Note - we are an easy target, H&G made us a laughing stock and the media love to pull a hero down from its pedestal. The only reason United get away with it is because they are all scared of Fergie, otherwise I am quite sure they would be hit with the same negative press.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:29:26
{Ed001's Note - I doubt I will have anything new on Adam before tomorrow, but I will make a point of asking about then. I have nothing on Dann at all other than him being desperate to join us.}

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

Do you think Dann will improve our squad? Would you say he is better then Skrtel? Also is Jones nailed on to go to utd now then because if so i am a little disappointed however we have a tremendous CB in Wisdom coming through the academy as well as Kelly if he can get over his injuries.

Although if we were to get Sakho with missing out on Jones it would be a blessing. {Ed001's Note - I never rated Dann at first, but I made a point of watching him and he did impress me in a couple of matches before getting injured. It was then that I was really impressed, because Brum's defence was awful the moment he was taken out of it. Jones seems to be nailed on, Sky have put their necks on the line on this one, they need to get it right because they have been well behind on everything else this summer.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:28:57
Is macca now an ed? if so, what number? {Ed001's Note - no he isn't sorry, he didn't fancy putting up with all the abuse that comes with it!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:18:09
Just looking at the dodgy rumours page for a laugh and found a post from yesterday saying ngog off to Sunderland. Turns out not to be that dodgy after all ed! {Ed001's Note - yeah one was put up the rest were meant to be deleted, it was posted hundreds of times on this site, the main site and the Sunderland site. I wish I knew who that was because I would like to congratulate them, even if I did get fed up with deleting them because I don't like the same thing over and over.}

SSN reporting Phil Jones having a medical at Man U....where does that leave us? Do we have a plan B?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:10:05
I've heard a few people say today that KK is looking for not only talent but players with a feel for the club. This is exactly the way to go in my opinion so my question is why no interest in Turan anymore???
Also I'm not usually into negativity but really I think Henderson is massively overrated. I also think this about Carroll, I pray I'm wrong on both counts!!
Thanks

***********scot dann and adam to sign 4 lfc in upcoming days BREAKING NEWS**************my uncle is a scout at lfc

if so, what does he think about his nephew chatting about inside club stuff? lfc-employees can get fired over such stuff.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 19:03:39
why have neither henderson or jones been paraded for their new clubs yet? i thought everythin was supposed to be tied up today so they could both travel with u21s . . .

No offense Ed, but even with your appreciated editorial input there are some idiots posting fantasies all day long and all nailed on ! Lol

Starting to wonder about Phil Jones's move to United.

No statement from either club.
Sky had no picture of him at there training facility.
Maybe he's just been shown round like he was at Melwood.
i think Sky have maybe made a massive cock up.

Hopefully we get Wickham. and if the rumours are true we may have already agreed a Fee with him.

Thought's ED.

Matt Wollacott {Ed001's Note - I am wondering what is going on, it is really strange this Jones move, I would have expected more pics etc by now.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 18:59:47
We won't bid for Adam until the Aquilani situation is resolved. They are similar players, so if Aquilani returns, no need for Adam. No assurances of Aquilani sale or return as of now. That's why no Adam bid yet.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 18:59:33
downing lack of pace????im sorry but if u think he lacks pace u obviously havent watch enough of him. defo prefer him to young as his end product is better

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 18:56:37
Just a note to all "suspect fakers", a player will never tell close friends "Yeah I'm off to Liverpool mate" when a deal is nowhere near completion. Examples I have seen in the last couple of days.. Phil Jones, Stewart Downing and people who have family out in Spain who have mint contacts. One dad being an LFC scout. Please stop posting complete rubbish, nobody who posts on here has a true understanding of the transfers going on in secret meetings at LFC. We only have what the Press print and have to put the pieces together to work out the truth ourselfs. Far fetched signings like Aguerro won't happen this summer and we won't be singing Championship quality players like Shane Long either.

Come to the real world.

Post in Rumours Eds this needs to be seen.

Ngog wasn't fit to wear the shirt of LFC and was a shocking Benitez buy. Nothing personal against him but the lad s**t himself as soon as ball came near him. Good riddance I say.
====================

For 1.5m he was a very good buy, the fact that we are getting estimated 7m for him now just proves it.
A much better buy than 35m for AC I would say.

Heard our next ideal targets will be:

Doni
Dann/Sakho(if fee is realistic)
Cissokho
Martinez
Mata
Wickham/Bojan(if fee is realistic)

Would be amazing if it were true

Your thoughts eds?

Thanks

08 Jun 2011 18:45:42
Ed, can you please post this as I'm sure other will have the same query and would like to her your opinion
Now that Jones has moved to OT who do you think King Kenny will have his eyes on for the CB role ? {Ed001's Note - the obvious one would be Dann, but I think Kenny will surprise us all, maybe revisiting former interest in Musacchio.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 18:40:35
Have we made an approach for Adam or dann yet ed? And is there any interest in baines? {Ed001's Note - I will have to let you know tomorrow evening about Adam and Dann, I have nothing new today on them. As for Baines, City have offered Bridge + cash for him.}

Why does everyone seem intent on slagging each other off? we all support the same team, a team with a bright immediate future. .
Lets unite a little bit more and stimulate a bit of goodwill
To the editors: Good job, especially over the summers where excitement and anticipation over the ins and outs are skyscraper high.
Henderson done
Dann - will happen
Adam - will happen
Downing - i dont personally rate him as his lack of pace is a serious issue. If he comes then i hope and pray to be proved wrong
Mata - would love the spaniard. We stand a chance, lets see how it unfolds after the u21's.
Young - if he chose united then he isn't worth our time.

Well said

Phil Jones was at Melwood last night... SSN didnt report anything then... Whos to say he's having a medical at Carrington? He is still undecided as far as I know.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 18:46:37
i feel giddy with all this transfer malarky, buzzin about henderson, was hoping for some news on jones, i think they're what we need for a future squad or even the near future, what with having an all ready seemingly decent set of younguns, we can have a british team again, obviously with the help of great foreign talent.in no way i'm knocking other countrys but only thinking of all youngsters kickin balls on the streets of britain, .kyb.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 18:37:00
everyone happy with henderson ?personally im delighted! think hes quality, went too two sunderland matches last season hes quality ! im hoping( have no inside info or anything like that ) for Scott Dann , Mata and would be chuffed if we get Vargas ! think these 3 +henderson is what we need!

what you think ED ?

08 Jun 2011 18:27:00
Ed, what are the other CB targets now that Jones has escaped our grasp? {Ed001's Note - I honestly have not heard who we are chasing, everyone seems to assume it will be Dann rather than having info about it.}

Hey guys, Kenny is not going for Charlie Adam as LFC are going to go for an Alonso return at 15million, a master stroke from Kenny as Alberto Aqulani wants to stay in Italy.

And what is your source for this nonsense exactly? The Alonso interview the other day? The dog in the street knows that Aquilani wishes to stay in Italy, so stop being a muppet why don't you. Rumours are meant to be at least based on some facts!

It was defo a dog in the street, he is a well known bull s**tzu.

I believe that agger will go to barca for £7mil plus jefferen. And I believe that Lfc are making a move for dann as we speak and that he will sign rather than jones. And then a move for wickham will be made for £8mill plus bonus when he gets international caps. What are thoughts ed? do you think this would be good targets? Still can't put my finger on who will be are left winger?who do you think will be? {Ed001's Note - I hope it will be Mata, but N'Zogbia is looking the most likely.}

To the bloke that said this about Ngog:
"Id like to say farewell to ngog. He gets so much unnecessary stick from you "fans". Sure hes no world beater but the lad never complained about being a sub and scored the occasional goal. He also improved every time he played and his hold up play was improving as his strength did. I also remember a few games last season when el nino was crying and doing nothing when ngog came on and was far more of a handful for defenders. I think he'll do well at a lower team."
Ngog wasn't fit to wear the shirt of LFC and was a shocking Benitez buy. Nothing personal against him but the lad s**t himself as soon as ball came near him. Good riddance I say.

Coily

Steve Kean has said on a local radio station that Jones isn't even having a medical at MUFC and that MUFC haven't agreed a fee yet???

Dodge

========================================



never stopped the scum yet, Berbaflop was signing before spurs even said they could talk to him, was even pictures at old trafford, a complaint was made but the removed. no doubt a little brown envelope dropped on someones desk cough cough

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 18:25:05
Nothing official on either Blackburn or Man Utd's site about Jones.

Not saying it is not happening, but it's clearly not a done deal yet or there would have been an announcement of some sort from both/either club.

I personally think Jones has yet to decide and is just being shown around Old Trafford/Carrington the same way he was shown around Anfield/Melwood yesterday (according to most sources).

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 18:23:08
im in the same cafe as mr aggressive but have to agree eds you do slate rumours and yes this is a rumours site.

Rumours create excitement and a buzz and people can make their own judgement. If you go back to a few posts from a couple of weeks back a certain Ed was sayin that mata had an 8 out of 10 chance, then it became 7/10 then it got lower and lower. So come on, give mr aggressive a break. He posted a rumour that is floating around our area and I think that we will sign somebody great from the spanish league.

wait, forgot my name

Hi ed just wondering is there any chance of us signing ashely young? {Ed001's Note - there is a chance, nothing is happening there until their new manager is appointed though. But he has a number of offers on the table and, as Jones has shown, it is difficult to know who a player will choose.}

REPLY to tough guy ed number wateva....

there will be a signing from the SPAIN that will cost in the region of 20m+...possibly alot more.

bojan, mata, alonso are the likeliest and i DO NOT CARE WHAT YOU EDS THINK AS THIS IS ONLY YOUR OPINION AND U HAVE NEVER GIVEN ACCURATE INFO, YOU SIMPLY SLATE COMMENTS!

Real LFC should be excited becos u WILL see 5-6 fresh top quality signings at anfield...roll on the good old days...i cant wait to say I TOLD YOU SO to you eds! {Ed001's Note - yes mate of course, bless ya, you don't even have the balls to put a name to your digs.

YOU ARE EDITORS OF A WEBSITE NOT FOOTBALL SCOUTS OR ANYTHING CLOSE TO BEING.

It is believed that Jones has gone for United because Liverpool would not budge past 13million. United have played the first hand and expect Liverpool to bid 16million to trigger the release.

Karllfc

---------------------------------------------------
If this is true - are you sure we've not got Rick Parry back doing the bidding! Sheesh! We lost out on Rio Ferdniand to Leeds for 500,000! We lost out on Christiano Ronaldo because at 16 we thought he was a bit too young!!!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 18:09:36
Ed It seems to me we have missed out on the two main targets for cb( Cahill, jones ) I know dann will be a cheaper option and I think a good buy....BUT..surely if we were willing to pay 15m plus for a young central defender we should make on offer for sakho that psg can't refuse.. Get in early and offer 20m plus player that wud do it I reckon.ed's your thoughts pls.
Dave {Ed001's Note - I would agree with you there, Sakho seems like a no brainer to me as well.}

This is just a personal opinion. But why arent we looking at Podolski? Imagine him and suarez supporting carrol out wide. Is it just age at 26? I can't imagine he's happy at Koln. Would the fee be unreal?
Any insight would be great. Thanks.

I personally think he would be a great signing.

he'd be very cheap less that 8m but so worth it.

love kenny but am bit worried that we keep signing english players at stupid prices carol £35 mil henderson £20mil and nearly jones and young we need turan and mata not just average english crap might do ok in prem but will be found out in champs league if we ever get there

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:48:50

apparantlly javi martinez is one of kenny dalglish's main transfer targets, any thoughts ed? {Ed001's Note - I hope you are right because he is, in my opinion, the best young central midfielder around.}

and he he can play in dm if needed, holding or creative. that guy is very good. can play in a 442, 433 would do well with lucas in the mid and would also be the perfect gerrard replacement when the time comes.

08 Jun 2011 17:33:32
Am I the only one who doesn't see sense in signing Charlie Adam? Especially given that we've just signed an up and coming CM prospect for £16m+. I just feel that the money could be better invested elsewhere instead of flooding the centre of our midfield.

Thoughts ed? {Ed001's Note - he offers something we don't currently have, but it only makes sense if Henderson plays wide.}

What specifically, do you think he offers that we don't currently have? {Ed001's Note - pace and a more cultured pass, the kind of thing Adam was meant to offer.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:32:28
With Henderson signing (nearly) and speculation still rife about Adam and maybe Mccarthy, my bets are on Poulsen leaving and Shelvey going out on loan.

Spearing should be in the players leaving bracket as well, but an impressive second half to the season probably has saved him for another season.

Seems his bite in the midfield has caught Kenny's eye but we all know and so does Kenny, that we'd be in denial if we thought that he is good enough to be one of our first choice midfielders for years to come.

Ed? {Ed001's Note - if he carries on his major improvement it would be difficult to let him go.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:30:58
downing definately signing my girlfriend been talking to his ex michaela henderson-tyne she just said that he told her dad he was signing

Guess he'll have to sign then, otherwise he'll have some explaining to do to his ex's dad.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:30:44
ed001 you seem to have some inside info on jones never heard a ed say he or she is 99.999 sure how do you no this.
Deano {Ed001's Note - because he had a nice guided tour and plenty of people are telling me it was defo him that was shown round. I was a bit worried it was Henderson and people didn't know who Jones was, but someone that I would expect to know is saying it was him.}

======================================
and you say you have inside info? u slate all the lfc fan over transfer we want at the club. and u said jones is coming to us when he is having a medical at united.. nicely done ed's!! hope up 4 nothing {Ed001's Note - the question was regarding why I said I was sure we had agreed a fee with them, nothing to do with the likelihood of him signing. If you read all the comments through you would understand that! Instead you jump on one comment completely out of context and end up looking silly. All along I said he had offers on the table to choose between from Spurs, Arsenal and United and it would be down to his choice.}

08 Jun 2011 17:23:41
Ed,

I am in doubt with regards to the Jones saga........

Have ManU just made a good signing or has Dalglish forced Fergusson to a move he would have ideally liked to do next year?? It looks like Liverpool have forced ManU's hand over this transfer......

A Central defender should not have been in Fergusson's agenda neither should have been Ashley Young.....especially as they need at least 2-3 central midfielders plus a goalkeeper......


I have a strong feeling that Dalglish has got into Fergie's nerves and he is worried about Dalglish' moves......Neither of them were initially targets of Fergie but he has gone ahead and bought both of them..

Despite the two setbacks (we definitely wanted them) I somehow feel that we are on the right track with Kenny leading us

Ed Please share your thoughts

LiverBird {Ed001's Note - Young is being targeted as Nani is likely to go, but Jones is a strange one unless he is intended to be used in midfield. There is a very definite need for a defensive midfielder at United.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:23:35
Marco marin known as German's Messi. he is a good talent. IS liverpool trekking him?? I think he can play in wings isnt it eddie??? plz reply this and also mention the value of this player if u can guess??

And the award for uninformative and misleading comparison of a undeveloped player to an established superstar goes to this post.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:22:07
Why are we buying more centre midfielders?! We need WINGERS, natural speedy skillful WINGERS!
I swear if we buy Adam and p ut Henderson on the wing aswell i'll loose it, so please can we now start targeting top qaulity players who are quality NOW not going to be in a few years. Mata, Turan, Hazard are the players we need now not downing, young, jarvis etc. The owners say they are prepared to spend big, lets spend it on players worthy of large price tags not spending ridiculous amounts on players unworthy of that price (Carroll is not worth 35m tbh).

E.H LFC

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:22:02
Hey ed. I don't think I saw one link to Henderson before yesterday and I check this site often. Just shows how kk will do business. My guess is half the players linked aren't even being considered. I'm not sure bout Henderson but I'm sure about kenny and it's his decision.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:21:54
Henderson good signing cause he, s young and English, bit expensive though. Where, s he gonna play, Meireles is not gonna be dropped afta last season, lucas voted player of the year, no! Fit again Gerrard, no chance, and Kuyt, can, t see him gettin in the first team sum how.

i would be happy if we got 3 ! i mean mata, elia and jeffren.

ed ! there is lots of talk about downing and nzogbia ! but my sixth sense tells me that we will end up to elia or griezman !

what do you think ? also is there any chance of aiden mcgeady or matt albrington ? {Ed001's Note - we have already been knocked back over Elia, I can't see us going back for another try. I will have to check up on McGeady, I know he was saying he hated it out there and didn't like having to be followed around by armed guards. I really can't see Albrighton.}

Hi Ed i have a question i have never seen Henderson play and would not have a clue how much he would be worth and when we signed suarez i was over the moon as he has always been a highly skilled quality player and with carrol not as excited but shocked about the price like most fans but as it looks a definate that he's ours now should i be excited is he as good as suarez is on the wing as IMO suarez's crosses are fantastic...many thanks

MJ {Ed001's Note - he has a very good cross and pass on him, he is a technically gifted player rather than a typical English grunt.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:09:46
Benfica and Real are fighting over Coentrao, and Benfica is going to fine him too...do you think they would be willing to sell him to Liverpool now?
..............................
WHy would they fine him? and why would we like to bring the player who is not intrested to com.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:09:29
What's the latest on Henderson? And do you rate him ed, thanks :) {Ed001's Note - all done now as far as I can find out, just waiting for the official announcement. Yes I do, I remember discussing him on the United site last year, I was saying I think he has something. I seem to remember his dip in form coinciding with me bigging him up and making me look a bit silly!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:04:25
Am I the only one who doesn't see sense in signing Charlie Adam? Especially given that we've just signed an up and coming CM prospect for £16m+. I just feel that the money could be better invested elsewhere instead of flooding the centre of our midfield.

Thoughts ed? {Ed001's Note - he offers something we don't currently have, but it only makes sense if Henderson plays wide.}

bojan, mata, alonso are the likeliest and i DO NOT CARE WHAT YOU EDS THINK AS THIS IS ONLY YOUR OPINION AND U HAVE NEVER GIVEN ACCURATE INFO, YOU SIMPLY SLATE COMMENTS!

Real LFC should be excited becos u WILL see 5-6 fresh top quality signings at anfield...roll on the good old days...i cant wait to say I TOLD YOU SO to you eds! {Ed001's Note - yes mate of course, bless ya, you don't even have the balls to put a name to your digs. Easy to hide away when you are proven to be a complete liar without putting anything on the line isn't it?}

Wel ed

Just want to say am not the person who posted the above but I totally agree with wat he is saying alot of eds on this site slate people for posting a rumour on a rumour site...

With Aston Villa wanting Rafa Benitez to be their new manager, I will be interesting to see if Rafa sanctions the move of Ashley Young to Man Utd. We all remember Rafa's rant and falling out with Fergie so would he want to sell to him?
Will be interesting to see what happens with our reported interest in Stewart Downing too. What do you think Ed's?

*O'Dell-boy. {Ed001's Note - that is a very good point, but I doubt he would put his job in jeopardy for us.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 17:01:25
I amazed with all the rumours regards Adams
We are just about to buy Henderson for 20 million and is a very good prospect for now and the future..with Gerrard-Lucas-Meriless-Spearing not sure we need anymore central midfielders.

We will get a a left Back -Central Defender -a Winger or maybe 2- and a forward.

Scott Dan- CD
Enrique- LB
Zogbia-Young WING
Mata-Forward

would like to see augeuro

Been away for last couple of days... has Henderson signed for us and Jones for the Mancs? If not what are the chances out of 10 Ed?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:56:48
Liverpool to sign John Aldridge, Peter Beardsley, John barnes, ray houghton and Steve McMahon before transfer window closes. U saw it here first.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:54:46
For people worrying about the Henderson deal, my advice is trust KK, DC and FSG. The press claim a deal of £20m as this is what Sunderland wanted. It doesn't mean its the truth. Liverpool FC have returned to the good old days, nothing said until they have something to say, they have dealt with the transfer with respect.

My point of view is this, Liverpool will have maybe paid around £10m plus Ngog, who let's face it is a very very long way from the top, couldn't hold up a ball to save his life and would be well down the pecking order for striker. So Ngog has gone and for an extra +/- £10m we have a player with enormous potential, another Gerrard if you like, so if he stays at Liverpool for 12 years, it's great value for money, if he only stays 3-5 years his value should go up so therefore profits will be made to re-invest

Its a financially sound investment

08 Jun 2011 16:53:05
Ed, am i right in saying that even though we may have paid over the odds for Hendrson and Caroll, we will save a lot of the fee in the wage bill as they will both be on moderate wages compared to some of the available contenental stars who could cost us up to £180,000 a week even if there fees are lower than £20m. I.e. Adebyor, Diarra, Aguero (£40m) etc {Ed001's Note - there are massive savings on wages on Carroll and Henderson compared to equivalent European players.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:52:37
Ed is it true that fsg are selling? I only ask because I've heard that they are fed up with the leaks!!

Apparently we have :
20,000 people who post on this site who have contacts/relatives who are scouts for the club.
We have thousands of people who sit outside John Lennon airport and always manage to see these footballers coming to our club.
People who have conversations with John Henry/DC/KD etc plus are "great mates" with the likes of gerrard etc

So I just wonder is John henry having doubts about the kind of operation he has in lfc:)

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:51:32
I'm sorry but can somebody please explain the rumours of meireles leaving ? I think he was one of our best players last season!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:46:59
Hi Ed..disappointed bout us not getting Jones unless sumthin major changes.but what do you think our chances are of hetting Simon Kjaer of Wolfsberg?Also Henderson i think is a great signing nd i delighted the Mancs didint get him after interst in start of the season. But how would you rate or chances of young Iker Muniain? Very talented youngster and since Ngog gone now opens thedoor for a top striker to come in? I feel these will constist of Muniain, benzema mayb. wud love to see us snatch Ashley Young under the noses of the Mancs for round 17mil. I think wel def get the following this summer in the next 2 weeks:
Adams- 8 mil
Dann- 9mil
Javi Martinez-14mil
And marquee signiong of the summer wil be Mata 18-22mil. Keep up the good work EDs {Ed001's Note - Kjaer is a player we looked at before his move to Germany, the scouts told us to look elsewhere as he is not good enough. I doubt we will have any interest in him now.}

08 Jun 2011 16:45:33
ed any idea what the actual fee was for Henderson and what value Ngog held in the deal?pity about Jones, think he and Wisdom will be Englands CB pairing in years to come... {Ed001's Note - the official word is in excess of 20m including Ngog.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:44:39
Everyone just calm down! We need a LB, RW, LW and a back up foward anything is a bounus. In my opinion we have plenty of cover at the back but what do i know
KK ;)

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:42:17
Heard from a very reliable source that upon arriving at Melwood for his medical today, Phil Jones was bundled into the back of a Murdoch owned Sky van by someone who can only be described as a 'Howard Webb look alike'.

The van was then seen heading in the direction of Manchester.

It seems the only credible reason for why somebody would choose United over Liverpool.

08 Jun 2011 16:38:52
ed, sky sports are saying the henderson deal is worth £16m. is that 16m + ngog or what way do you think it will be?


mooman {Ed001's Note - they were saying 20m earlier! I would expect 16m + Ngog, purely because the official statement said the deal was worth in excess of 20m including Ngog.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:33:48
It would seem to me an obvious choice for Phil Jones to join LFC. Kyriakos, Carra both getting no younger and Agger seemingly injury prone. He'd walk straight into the team or at least be a very solid stand in.
As for Jordan Henderson, he seems like a good buy, youth, great stats in Prem this season so if he can continue and with the guidance of KK he'll have a bright future.
Would love to see Mata in red.
Downing seems like a decent buy too if we can negotiate a price from Villa. He had one of the best assists stats season just gone so again if he continues this form next season Andy Carroll will be laughing as he nods in goal after goal.
Would love to see Sakho, Micah Richards and Baines to sure up defence.
Ever Banega, Lassana Diarra or Xabi Alonso (I wish) to steady the midfield.
Mata and Perroti or possibly Lennon on the wings.
And someone like Wickham or even Bojan if he is available to provide different options in attack.
Things seem to be different with KK in charge and Liverpool no longer seem to be the toothless giant in the transfer market. We are seeing decisiveness that has long been lacking.
Good times ahead.

jones is nearly definatley going to man u! People i know in manchester have seen him around and about! why are we even botherd! jordan henderson looks a good signing! man u will just ruin phil jones like they did chris smalling! he was good now they dinted his confidence! kk knows whaat hes doing! leave it too him and see who we get! guarentee we see some shock signing before the end of window


You are bothered cause ye thought ye had him signed, showing him around melwood.
We will ruin him like we did smalling ????
Are you for real ?? this is the same lad that no one even knew before we bought him and he became u21 international and also a premier league winner with us !!!
Yeah his confidence must be well dented...ya fool !!!

Although Javi Martinez would be IMMENSE, why would we buy yet another CM when we just chuffed out 20mill on one? Is Meireles leaving? Lucas? Only if a major player left would we spend around 20-25 on another CM.

The Insane

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:19:48
I am not upset at all about losing out to Man U for Jones. I can see him being a better player for Man U than he would have been for Liverpool, the same can be said though, for Scott Dann, should he sign for us. He is a Liverpool fan, and that is more than we could ask for. Someone who will bleed for a clean sheet for us! And with Carragher at his side, he can only get better. Ed...Chances of Dann? I have my fingers cross for this one!

The Insane {Ed001's Note - I am not sure, if we move for him he will come, the only question is if we will go for him or not. No one seems to have any solid info on that, just a hope we will and an expectation because he is a Liverpool fan.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:18:12
Lads, when do you think we'll see henderson at pictures from melwood? And when will the deal be official? I mean when will we know that he has passed the medical and signed the dotted line?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:18:07
How come Henderson hasn't been official unveiled as a liverpool player yet???

08 Jun 2011 16:16:11
ed, what d'you think of scott dann? i think, now with birmingham getting relegated and him being a pool supporter (former card holder, i might add!) it must be cheap and easy to get him. plus he's a little more experienced. my age! {Ed001's Note - you only have to look at how Birmingham fell apart after his injury to see how good a player he is. I hope we go for him now.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:15:45
Posted earlier that Jones and Henderson could be our future Carragher and Gerrard, well one deal is better than none. With us seemingly prepared to spend £16m on Jones, cannot see why we wouldn't spend £16m on another player, if we want another centre back - Scott Dann is available for half that price, Mamodou Sakho available for a similar price as Jones. As with Jones - Arsenal and Tottenham will also be looking to get these players too, although I think Dann would choose us - whilst Sakho may be swayed by the French influence at Arsenal. A player who may not be going to Man Utd now may be Raphael Varane from Lens, a player very similar to Jones in terms of experience and ability - but available for around £8m.
With N'Gog on his way, i think a new striker may now be looked at. Although the club im sure will be a little disappointed in not getting Jones, we'll dust ourselves down and move onto the next target and ensure we get the players we want
RedSG

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:15:06
Forget Phil Jones - it seems that good players become brilliant as soon as the press get a sniff of a deal. Scott dann is still available, and we still have agger, carragher, skrotal, kelly (who can play CB) and good reserves such as Mendy, Ayala ....plenty of options and its only the beginning of June.

Apparently nobody wants Aquaman anymore. Where can we sell him ?

Ed,

Was it just a case of Jones choosing United over us, or did they end up offering more and Blackburn accepted their bid? Also, do you reckon Scott Dann is the next alternative or would Kenny move for someone else?

Cheers,

Potzy. {Ed001's Note - seems he just chose them over us and Arsenal and Spurs.}

Quote from Jeffren...

"I do not think about that [transfer talk] now. I'm here and I am thinking about what we're doing [with Spain], " he said.

"The truth is that when teams like Liverpool are mentioned I am proud of their interest and we'll see what it does to me. "

Please sign him KK, definately one for the future

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 16:04:59
Ed just a thought do you think with us having so many central midfielders Gerard will be used on the wing thanks .
Red 4life {Ed001's Note - I think there is a good chance he will play there on occasion. It would make sense, he plays well there, has a fantastic cross on him, personally I think it is his best position.}

I will gvie you my opinion....

Todays Links - anyone care to give an opinion (or a mark out of ten ) :

defour - good player but too lightweight for prem..more suited to italy...
adam - only going from jan, think kenny will sign him, but who knows who he signing..
downing - inconsistent.
mata - would be amazing, not sure we will get him though
Jeffren - not seen enough of him
Alonso - too old now, and RM will never sell


who knows who kenny will get, after the signing of henderson this goes to show that none of us know. we can all have wishlists and players we want to see. but what do we know... henderson goes to show nothing

Handy Carroll

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:51:53
I think that the Henderson deal was good business. Even though he is not worth 16 million and ngog, he is a cross between a young gerrard and lampard (i think someone already said that) and he is also able to play on the wing, and replace gerrard when he is injured. With n'gog going the other way, we now only have 2 strikers, and I think we will see another striker heading to Liverpool in the next few weeks, as well as Doni, another winger or two, a left back and a centre back.

YoungRed

P.S. I think that most players for the future will be signed this window, and in the coming windows I think we will only buy players that are urgently needed, so we will be spending quite a lot this summer! About time too...

08 Jun 2011 15:48:09
Hi Eds,
Just read on SSN transfer centre ticker, that Aqualani's agent said that the reason Juventus dont want him is that they are interested in a more defensive player and that there has not been any enquiry by AC Milan and that in ay case he wont be left on the side of the road, hes got 3 years left on liverpool contract. I am just wondering, is there a possibility that hed return and Mireles be sold?
KK has'nt refused a return of Aqua. I know he probably will stay in Italy, but am i reading too much in to it ? You could possibly see why it would make financial sense, rather than take a 10 million hit on Aqua, make 3/4 million on Mireles, for effectivley 2 players who play in same position.
Your thoughts ? {Ed001's Note - I can see your thinking, but I would think it more likely that Aquilani would go out on loan again if we are stuck with him.}

First of all, welcome to Liverpool Jordan. A terrific young player who I've no doubt will be a massive star for this club. Welcome aboard, kid. Get set for the journey of your life.

Moving on. So Jones has suddenly made a U-turn.
As fantastic a prospect as he is, I'm not gonna beat myself up about it.
He obviously wasn't overly keen on us, unlike Henderson, who told the Manc Filth to "do one".
It didn't take him even a millisecond to snub us for them. So for me, he's defo not worth crying about.

The silver lining, though, in this whole Jones saga is that we may likely go back in for the absolute beast of a player that is Mamadou Sakho (aged 21/22).
If we were willing to fork out £16m for Jones, surely we'd have no problem augmenting that with a £1m, perhaps £2m and land a player who is sure to be one of the best centre backs in the world.

Getting Sakho to replace Agger and Scott Dann as Carra's long-term replacement would be a brilliant piece of business, imo.
Roughly £26m should be enough to get both.

Onto another issue. It amazes me how people emphasise the need for LFC fans to be "realistic" about their expectations nxt season, yet themselves make unrealistic comments such as LFC "can't win the Prem" nxt season or in the forseeable future.
They cite the fact that Chelsea and the Manc Filth will be a) "much stronger" and b) "LFC will have many new players who'll take time to gel" as the main reasons.

Well, with regard to citation a, Chelsea and the Manc Filth had stronger teams than us in 2008/09, yet, we finished above the former, outscored everyone and only just missed out on the title by 4 points.

There's absolutely no doubt that nxt season, LFC will be stronger than we were in 08/09.
Yes, Chelsea and City will likely have stronger squads than ours. But we'll still compete.
The recent champions had the third best squad, yet still won the title.

Nxt season only City and Chelsea will be stronger than LFC. We already are better than Manc Filth in four areas: goalkeeper, right back, midfield and forward.
If we get in Sakho and Dann, Vargas/Cissokho, Mata, Matuidi, Benzema and another good winger (who are all very viable, we'll be miles ahead o them.

So, really, I see NO reason why we "can't compete for and win the league nxt season when we'll have the second or third best/strongest squad and the best manager in the league, Kenny.

As for having "many new players who will take time to gel, " well, tell me.
How many players did Mourihno buy in his first spell at Chelsea? How long did it take them to win the title?

This thing about players needing "considerable" time to settle, intergrate or gel is bull, as dispelled by Suarez, Luiz, the Mexican and many other instances.
It's not a given that "considerable" time is needed.

Each case has its own dynamics and merits which determine how quickly and efficiently players integrate and settle into a team.
The quality of the manager with chief regard to the flexibility of his approach is a crucial factor in all this.

People can harp on all they like about LFC only being ready to win the Prem in "5 years' time".
The fact of the matter is that, the EPL is there for the taking.
Consistency and exploitation will be key.

Arsenal, who I manifestly do not rate, could, should, have easily ran away with this league had they been a tad consistent and capitalized on Chelses and the Manc Filth's blips. They failed.
I'm sure that I'm not exaggerating when I say that LFC's been generally one of the most consistent sides over the years (with the obvious exceptions, of course), plus we don't bottle it.

I'm pretty much convinced and satisfied that, with far better quality than we've had in years, we'll be in a position to win more matches, and capitalize more on we rivals' slip ups.

You know, this league is a lot less hard to win than is made out.
Take this for example.
Our form since the return of Kenny would have put us in the top three had he started the season with us (with this "midtable" team).
I'll go further and say that, had Downing (yes, Stuart Downing) and, say, N'Zogbia, joined/been with us since last yr July, we'd have won this league with consummate ease.

These aren't exactly your world beaters, but such was the low standard of the league and Kenny's brilliance that they'd have taken us up there.
But now LFC will likely sign a player who's several times better than the aforementioned in Mata, and perhaps one or two others.

All things being equal, Liverpool will have the best keeper in the world in Pepe; a rb and central pairing second to none; best lb/wb in Cissokho/Manuel Vargas; a midfield only topped by City; best lw in Mata and potentially the strongest forward line only marginally rivalled by City.

As I said earlier, upfront, midfield, rb and gk we already superior to all teams bar City and Chelsea (debatable even).

So, really, am not convinced by this "3/5 years" bull.
The EPL is there for the taking, NOW.
Like it or not, we'll compete.

Hi eds
just thinking where Henderson will fit in.
wont be first team centre mid
Most likely to be right midfield but where does this leave kuyt
believable if you would prefer henderson
unbelievable if you would prefer Kuyt {Ed001's Note - Kuyt up front.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:37:08
guys lets not aim too high............

if manchester united...or arsenal or chelsea...want the same player a liverpool target...

lets face it..its a bonus if they wanna join us...we cant say come to us we win sth every year, or that we are in the champions league...

so lets be real...........and whoever comes to us..is a bonus.....

i cant see marquee signings...i think the owners want a 3-5 yrs time squad

Last time I was so excited was the takeover of LFC by NESV and the eventful boardroom and court saga which unfolded right on these boards! Keep it up, Eds!

bbc website says Jones off to man utd not liverpool

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:23:42
does anyone know what hendersons number will be?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:21:14
we should be going for wingers, defenders and a striker not bloody midfielders

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:19:50
ed is it possible that jones is having a medical at manu but that he may also have a medical at anfield. then he can make his decision at a later date. it wud fit in wit rumours of him comin to melwood this morning??? just puttin it out ther......... {Ed001's Note - it is possible, he has offers to choose from and he could easily visit every single club that has made an offer. By the way I would just like to thank SSN for finally confirming what I said this morning about Spurs going in for Jones as well.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:14:55
omg your all clowns the f@@@ing jones lad is signing for those scumbags!! , no big deal as we got kelly, maybe we wanted to throw utd off the young scent or get them to spend who knows

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:14:28
haha ferguson has panicked and gone all guns for jones lets be honest evn henderson all of kings signings have been suprised , im sure der 4 r 5 left up his sleeve , scott dann and ribery i think hail hail the king haha!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:12:40
Henderson is not worth 20 Million
Ngog is not worth 7 Million
The fact that liverpool are linked with N'Zogbia is embarrassing
Jones isnt worth 16 Million

We need a left left back and i hope its chissoko as Enrique will probably go to Barcelona (If the rumour is true) and hopefully Liverpool sign a decent winger like Adam Johnson or Juan Mata

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:11:53
at 12 30 pm or bets were stopped on phil jones as it was said he was on way to liverpool for medical.
the man utd website has no mention of jones at trafford but with rooney singing his praises on twitter and the rumours today might it just be a late plan to get jones to change his mind.

untill announced officially ill keep fingers crossed that its liverpool and not united hes heading for

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:09:55

08 Jun 2011 15:04:09
Just because Jones may or may not have signed for Manure, why yot ripping him over the weight problem he aint got.He's quicker then Dann, he's gonna be a top class player and i for one will be gutted if it turns out to be true.No way you would have posted that if he'd have been confirmed a Liverpool shining ala Jordan Henderson.No personal comments about him or do have you a crush on him already.

Dwayne Rodneys Twitter account:

Phil jones is a good young English player. 1 of the toughest defenders I played against last season. Can play midfield to.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:01:53
Not sure what to make of the Jones to UTD rumour and medical situation.

as both LFC and SFC released statements saying a fee was agreed and the deal is subject to a medical (henderson), Why havent UTD, BFC doen the same for Jones?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 15:01:30
Do people think we were serious about jones, cos I for one don't. Manure are reportedly spending 18ish on a keeper, and now another 18 on jones. 36 mill from the transfer kitty?!. I have a feeling kenny has pulled one by forcing utd to pay for something they don't need at the moment. Surely if needed we would have made sure we were in the driving seat and outbid everyone before it all came out?. Kenny is a canny one, whiskeynose has met his match!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 14:56:49
Any idea why Henderson being announced is still not confirmed ed? Reports said he was at melwood at 10 this morning and one ed said he could have had his medical already and that was a few hours ago now? Hope united aint done what they done with Jones on Henderson! {Ed001's Note - it takes time to do medicals, don't worry it will be fine.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 14:54:50
Rooney is bigging up Jones on Twitter. I honestly think we've missed out on him.

Henderson and Jones could've been our new Carra and Gerrard

Hey ed,
Surely if we were willing to go close to jones' 16mil buyout we would be willing to pay out the 20mil for sakho who is a monster of a centre half and could also provide cover at left back? Any thoughts ed?
Cheers, matlock. {Ed001's Note - I have wondered that myself, but Sakho would never count as home grown, which may count against him.}

08 Jun 2011 14:36:48
Henderson is a great signing and exactly what we need in midfield - how many times were we over-run in midfield against lesser teams last season? Plus, and a BIG plus, he can interchange with Gerrard and cover each other especially when Stevie switches off during a match which Kenny no doubt has observed in a number of matches - SingRed

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 14:34:03
Somebody has posted in rumours that we may be after Nacho Monreal, i thought he was Benfica bound to replace Coentrao, i know it's unlikely but if everything was to go our way and we ARE in for him, this would be an amazing coup for the club, he is a fantastic player, fits the transfer policy and has loads of talent with much more to give.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 14:33:52
I went to see Aphex Twin on Saturday night, things got a little weird towards the end of his set but I'm pretty sure there was a coded message in there saying that Liverpool have agreed to sign Aguero from Athletico for 45million, apparently Aphex is good friends with John Henry and they often go to KFC and share a bargain bucket.

08 Jun 2011 14:30:58
I think it is a shame missing out on Jones. Although we do have Wilson who i think will be a decent player in time. N'gog's departure is a clear indication that a deal for Whickham is imminent. Mata seems to be a strong solution to our wide problems. Personally, i dont really see much in Downing and would doubt his capabilities playing for us. Ed, could you please explain to me the Jeffren situation, what was exactly said on the spainish radio? {Ed001's Note - he said Liverpool were interested in him and that he was flattered by the interest.}

Wel ed an lads. Quick question, Jordan Henderson, what is his role? Anytime i've watched him i thought of him as a box to box midfielder. Where do you think he will play, wide right, or part of a midfield three?? Hope the idea isnt to play him as a wide midfielder in a 442. K3 {Ed001's Note - I think he will play in a number of roles, mostly on the right to a degree though.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 14:29:20
I know this for a FACT !
Not even Sky Sports News know what we are doing only the club .
Am I right Ed ? {Ed001's Note - exactly, everything that comes out is from outside of the club. No one even knew who it was that was going to be on the radio yesterday to talk about interest from Liverpool. Literally no one had said it was going to be Jeffren. The club are being extremely professional and personally, as frustrating as it is, I am glad.}

I am gutted!
A player who nobody has ever heard of, who has never been mentioned in the media, now looks as though he might possibly, sometime, be thinking about the possibility of thinking of talking to someone who knows someone who was at MUFC.

Everybody has to remember he could end up being a flop at United !!! I know he has the potential to be one of England's best but nobody knows for sure if he is going to live up to his expectations , without regular first team football he could fade and crumble under the pressure if he does get a chance !
Like Pacheco. Brilliant player had all the potential to become one of the world's best and has only played 5 Premier League matches for Liverpool in 2 years !

Hi eds,
Now that jones is having his medical at utd,
Who in your opinion is are next target,
I think we will be looking at Cahill instead of Dann, I would hope that was the case as I think Cahill is a much better defender, and would you really want a defender who's team got relegated last season.
Please post to rumour page {Ed001's Note - Cahill looks likely to go to Arsenal, City have already given up on a move for him and look likely to sign Vertonghen instead (interestingly enough they are offering Everton players and cash for Baines as well).}

If you had watched anything of Birmingham last season you will know that they would probably have stayed up had Dann not got injured in February and missed the rest of the season as a result. Without him, their defence falls apart. He's a great young player, would crawl through molten glass to play for us and is available for hopefully a lower fee than Cahill - who is also a good player but due to having England caps will cost 40x more (hyperbole alert)

08 Jun 2011 14:14:23
Don't worry about Jones. KK has something up his sleeve. 'There's been a murder/Taggart' has fancied Henderson for a while and his little puppet up in the North East would not have let him join us so quickly without some kind of behind the scenes deal. Sakho of PSG looks a better player and I can see Jones being played as a sitter in midfield for them, but I don't care if he never gets a game! YNWA

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 14:10:47
SSN reporting Phil Jones spoke to Arsene Wenger last night and has decided to choosing Man Utd over Arsenal; seems as if there wasn't really any concrete interest in him from Liverpool, perhaps just enquiries. {Ed001's Note - or perhaps they just don't know anything at all about what Liverpool are upto? After all they never knew anything about Henderson until it was official.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 14:09:16
Just like to throw this out there: Why do so many people think we desperately need a LB? Johnson's played his best football for us on the left and with Insua coming back he certainly qualifies as adequate backup. Just look at this team and tell me what you think:
GK - Reina / Doni
LB - Johnson / Insua
RB - Kelly / Flanagan
CD - Agger / Skrtel
CD - Carragher / Dann
CM - Meireles / Adam
CM - Lucas / Spearing
CM - Gerrard / Sissoko
LW - Suarez / Marveaux
RW - Henderson / Kuyt
ST - Carroll / ?

08 Jun 2011 14:04:50
Well gutted about losing Phil Jones to the Mancs. I understand we were willing to pay over £15m for him - so hopefully we'll go for Mamadou Sakho as he'll probably cost about £15-20m.

ed & all Re: JONES

As no 1 seen Jones get off the plane with the U21, then the possiblility is he is in the sky at the min... No 1 has seen him arrive at carrington, no sightings nothing.. just speculations. this brings me to my next question, when is the U21 flight due to arrive in Denmark,

am still not convinced....i know carrrington is not too far from melwood but if true his agent is the same as hendersons, then he is defo at melwood still..

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 14:01:53
OK muppets, so this morning Phil Jones was going to be at Melwood for a medical and then........surprise surprise he turns up at Man U, look I know nothing about what transfers are going to happen and neither do any of you, the only people who know are the people that matter and they are employed by Liverpool FC so give it a rest with "according to my sources" and "from someone in the know" because unless someone is going behind Kennys Back and leaking info on here, theres none of us know.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 14:00:07

We all know Jones as potential to be great defender, but I think the lad needs to watch his weight, He already looks barrel chested to me. He reminds me of Ruddock.

08 Jun 2011 13:55:47
Not getting Phil Jones is a big loss, but everyone seems to forget that we've got the player that could be partnering him in England's defence for the next 10 years; MARTIN KELLY.

P.s - Dont' forget about Andre Wisdom too.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:54:13
Rumour has it utd have been intrested in Jones for sometime and Liverpool have forced thier hand in making an early bid.

It is good to know we are prepared to go for decent young players and not be shy with the cheque book according to the rumoured £18m fee.

We only want players that want to play for Liverpool
He is not the only player out there at that price ?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:53:24
"Man Utd had to buy Jones a year early or they would have missed out to either us or Arsenal, what's the betting he gets loaned back to Blackburn until next year when Rio or vidic or both move on."

Vidic is three years younger than fat Carragher, Vidic will be around for a few more years yet.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:53:20

08 Jun 2011 13:52:46
Another player apparently heading for the Barcelona exit door this summer is Bojan Krkic, the 20-year-old Spanish striker of Serbian descent who was a Camp Nou idol while still a schoolboy at the age of 17, but who is now so bit-part and surplus to requirements at the age of just 20 that he's almost certain to be shipped out this summer. Those loud pinging noises you can hear signal his presence on the radar Liverpool, hope we sign him they reckon it would cost 14 million not bad business Jak Hall Die Hard LIVERPOOL FAN COME ON YOU REDS

Come on Macca lad, you had/got a massive rep for actually being someoned in the know when i started reading this site mate.Show us your worth and tell us where Jones will end up, is he on a plane with the under 21's or having a medical mate with Manutd or us. Jonny Boy6

Hi ed i know your having a busy day and that its a bit random but how did the Kenny Dalglish knighthood thing turn out, when i signed it was up to 2003.

08 Jun 2011 13:43:55
Ed if we do loose jones to the scum how many players is that over the years? Panorsky, ail Estes, ronaldo and probably more I can't think of. Why do they seem so much sharper and clued on than us? Thanks great site, gutted if we loose jones, thought him an damn would gave been awesome {Ed001's Note - Roy Keane is probably the most well known case of it. I am sure there is as big a list of players they lost out on to us. It is just a player making a personal decision.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:42:42
Is it not possible that johns could be having a medical at man ure to keep his options open, as no fee is said to be settled with manc's and as an ed stated last night/ this Mornin johns had already been spotted at melwood and quite possibly had a medical! I know if I was in his shoes an had no connections to either club I would want time to consider maybe so he can pick a club and just sign the better contract offer?

What the he'll I swear Phil jones was having a medical at melwood no Ssn saying he is at Manchester uniteds having a medical is that true eds please reply I'm confsed {Ed001's Note - it certainly seems true that he is in Manchester. A friend of mine was due to fly out with the England squad to watch the U21's and I have been trying to call him and see if Jones was on the flight or not but his phone is constantly engaged!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:35:35
ED I like you think he is being shown around at United like with us and I think he will then choose who we wants to play for. My gut feeling says he will choose us the same way Henderson did. Because he will be 3rd or 4th in the pecking order at United and will get a regular start with us and I think will want to further his career which he will do with us. Your thoughts Ed ? {Ed001's Note - I don't know, Fergie does tend to pull out all the stops for those he wants.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:33:13

08 Jun 2011 13:33:06
all this spearing talk, hes average!!! good grafter thats it!!, suso looks a proper player, we need a creative passer in there big time, remember kelly will be centre half and just as good as phil jones

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:30:29
Ed I have a funny feeling that Jones is not having a medical at United .... I have a funny feeling it's just a look around for him like he had with us . What do you think Ed ? {Ed001's Note - it is perfectly possible, no one knows for sure, for all anyone really knows he had a medical with us while looking round. It all conjecture unless you know the lad well.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:27:03
Is there still any chance of Phil Jones, really wanted him to come to LFC? If not I would like to see Sakho ahead of Dann any chance of this Ed?
Thanks
Glov3z the Red {Ed001's Note - only person who can tell you about Jones is him, he has to make the decision, I just hope he makes the right one. I can't see Sakho coming, his club are asking for 20m for him.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:25:27
Jones having medical at man utd . Would have liked him ... But also a fan off dann so hope we push 4 him now in kk i trust ynwa

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:25:12
20 million seems alot for henderson but i heard that sunderland only wanted 15mil but when they heard eggnog was part of the deal the wanted money to take him of our hands............

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:19:33
Henderson will not play on the right he is clearly being signed to play central midfield

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:18:56
I think the signing of Henderson says we are looking at different game plans for different matches, a horses for courses type of approach, where we play Carroll up front we will play Henderson on the right and somebody else on the left with a good delivery, then for other matches when Carroll isn't playing we will play another formation with 3 up front with wide players cutting in, obviously i don't know the details but this gives us the versatility to do things like this, expect a fair few more signings over the next few months, expect young ones too, players that don't mind spending a bit of time on the sidelines.

Hi Eds - just a quick question - we were all convinced Jones was on his way - do you know what caused the u-turn, or was it not as close as we all thought??

Kepp up the good work!

Jarvis {Ed001's Note - he had a personal choice to make, it is that simple. Sometimes they will choose you, sometimes they will choose someone else. I think he is making the wrong choice myself.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:17:24
so many so sure p.jones was coming today how wrong can you get it his having a medical at man utd right now i am starting to question a of sources on here as no one knew about henderson as well.
Deano

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:16:42
so let me get this straight - we need a CB and Utd need a CM, yet we have brought Henderson and Utd have brought Jones? Bizzare transfers!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:16:21
utd-vidic ferdinand smalling evans

lfc-carra-skrtel-agger-wilson

with wilson going on loan jones has more of a chance to get 1st team unlike utd.we now have henderson carroll kelly shelvey who have played with him.it will be silly to go to utd unless hes guaranteed 1st team.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:14:32
good luck jordan henderson and welcome to the worlds greatest stage(ANFIELD)...p.jones its your loss...now bring g.cahill, a.turan, j.enrique, mata and sturridge YNWA

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:13:42
Here we go!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:12:12
we need wingers guys ! forget about cb. we need 2 wingers, 1 lb and a back up forward ! that should be 1st preference.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:09:09
This is brilliant news! Jones is a good player but I would far rather have Sakho or even GAry Cahill :D

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:08:09
Phil Jones, the new Gary Neville

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:06:10
Phil Jones.......Nooooooooo not Utd!!
He would have been perfect for Liverpool
Gutted!
Now push the boat out and go for Cahill

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:04:50
Hi Ed,

Help me out here RE Phil Jones, am I right in saying he has just had a medical with United, and not actually agreed to sign for them? It makes sense to speak to all concerned and get medicals done so he can go off on England duty. He still has the decision to make.

Just because he has gone to see them, doenst mean he has chosen them over us, does it? Or have I missed something?

Red G {Ed001's Note - nobody knows for sure, what you are saying is perfectly possible as well.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 13:01:00
Don't understand the logic with Jones moving to United. They have Vidic, Ferdinand, Smalling and Evans, all of whom are more experienced. Best part of 20M on a goalie and 15-20M on a centre back they don't need surely they dont have enough cash for an established CM as a replacement for Scholes? CB shouldnt be there priority. Contrast this to regular first team football at Anfield... Maybe I'm just bitter.

dont believe anything you hear on ssn unless its official as in henderson deal.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:57:25
after reading through posts today i think i'm gonna be one of the first people on here to sincerely welcome Jordan Henderson, he's obviously a good player, those who have watched more than 15 minutes of him would know that, and who cares about the price, i think his price is a good thing as it shows the clubs willingness to invest in the future.

So welcome Jordan (not that you'll be reading this), but welcome to LFC and ignore the doubters, take your time and get your development right.

mooman {Ed001's Note - sounds like he has made his choice, disappointing if he has chosen United, but understandable, they are reigning champions after all and have European football.}
yeah its understandable to a certain extent, but he will not be a regular in that team for a goodwhile with ferdinand and vidic ahead of him, he was pretty much guarenteed football if he came to us.. confused.com

08 Jun 2011 12:54:14
Gutted about jones to be honest. My initial thought was 'why go there, you won't get a game?!' However I reckon ferguson has told him he'll play him in the holding role before moving him back when rio or vidic calls in quits. I do like Scott dann too but I think jones is gonna be a real player over the next few years.

Ah well, onwards and upwards! KK will do us proud!

08 Jun 2011 12:52:29
Devastated that Jones has gone to the Mancs, I could have dealt with losing him to Arsenal.

Does anyone know if we are popping down to Birmingham to have a quick word with Mr Dann?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:52:18
If we miss out on jones then no problem we'll go and get dann, still a bit concerned about no new news on wingers coming in but then isn't that the liverpool way, last year meirles, this year henderson and doni deals done without the media circus so who knows who's coming in next, exciting times back at liverpool, LOVE IT.

08 Jun 2011 12:51:11
hi ed
just a thought....... i know that this proberly goes against what you would want but why dont we make jones an offer he cannot refuse. alex fergy always does that to players he realy wants and we are financially stronger than the scum.
your thoughts ed? {Ed001's Note - not for me, I would rather we got players who choose to come.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:50:54
Why would Manchester United sign Jones????

Hes off to Liverpool, Manchester United already have Vidic, Smalings, Rio, Evans, Brown. Hes off Liverpool because hes a replacement for Carra.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:50:13
Phil Jones United medical. We agreed the fee and personal terms were in place but he decided to join United instead. We will now turn attentions to Sahko or Cahill.

Yeh - thats why he's at Melwood right now having a medical before flying out to the U21's!!
Idiot!

08 Jun 2011 12:49:30
Just heard Jones is off to the Scum, I am pleased to be honest coz it means we might get Dann instead, Dann is a Scouser, He's a LFC fan and would give 110% every game!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:49:11
How on earth did we let Jones slip out of our grasp!? He was practically at the Shankly gates then the scum swept in and took him :(
Has anyone got any info at all?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:48:25
I have been on Sky Sports News all morning (working from home) and I can confirm all this rubbish about Phill Jones reportedly having medicals at the scums has NOT been mentioned at all. Only Kieran Kibbs missing U21 due to injury and Henderson to us, thats all.

Ignore these jealousy muncs trying to spoil discussion/news of Henderson signing for LFC. {Ed001's Note - it is on the website transfer clockwatch.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:48:16
ive been watchin ssn since half 8 this morning and phil jones hasnt even been mentioned about liverpool never mind united.

please post as i tried to put 3 on yesterday and none were put on

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:48:07
Phil Jones to Man U is a let down but Scott Dann can still do a good job for us and would wear the shirt with pride! Flanno, Kelly, Dann, Robbo, Spearing, Shelvey, Henderson, Sterling...future spine of England right there - good times ahead.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:47:56
Remember people that Sky Sports are also a betting company - Phil Jones to Utd - take with a pinch of salt until actually confirmed
TD

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:47:14
So the deal for jones to us was basically done and he said he preferred Liverpool and he was at Melwood. And now he's having a medical with utd?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:46:58
Eds, can you shed any light on this phil jones stuff. I heard reports that we had agreed his details and that he was set for a medical with us, next thing he is signing a 5yr deal with utd and having a medical. I'm confused
Jbplfc {Ed001's Note - we had spoken to Blackburn and negotiations were advanced far enough along for him to take a tour of Melwood and discuss his possible role at the club. He always had interest from United and Arsenal too. It seems he has decided the United interest is for him according to Sky.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:46:09
Hello Ed, what the fudge is going on with Jones??

Corkpoolred {Ed001's Note - no one knows, unfortunately the news has broken after the squad boarded their flight. Last I heard Jones was with the squad and set to fly out, but it is perfectly possible he was hooked off the plane. Or it could be complete nonsense and he is happily sat on a plane!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:45:45
gutted about jones picking united i would like liverpool to go for cahill (bolton) hes still young

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:44:43
So let me see .....
Jones was coming to have a medical at Melwood today.
Then he was on the flight to Denmark with the U21's.
Now he's on his way to United to have a medical.
Sounds a bit weird to me .....
What do you think Ed ? {Ed001's Note - it is madness during the transfer window, there are hundreds of people scrabbling around trying to find things out. Trouble is one wrong piece of information throws everything out. England U21s reported that Henderson was allowed to stay behind to have a medical at Liverpool but the rest of the squad was going. Unfortunately the news of Jones broke after they boarded the plane so no one can check it out.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:43:32
Ed- is sky sports right is jones having a medical at united.... or are they just guessing....

they suspended betting on him coming here and then say he is going united????/ {Ed001's Note - they only suspended betting because a lot of bets went on it, not due to information. This is supposed to be good info though I won't trust it until I see it happen. He does defo have the option to join them though, so it would be no surprise.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:43:25
Hey Eds, is this whole Jones at Manchester United true then? Or is it just rumours within the press? {Ed001's Note - I am trying to find out, the U21s are flying out to Denmark now, last report said Jones was with them, that will only be confirmed or dismissed when they land and can be seen. I bet half the journos in Scandinavia are on the way to the airport right now!}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:42:26
just goes to show how much all of you know, which is little. that guy phil jones has signed for man utd, even these eds are only giving there opinion they have no inside sources and nor do we have any, so i would prefer if all of you would stop lying.
RedTurk {Ed001's Note - actually if you read up it was said over and over that United were in for him too and he had to choose. All you do is whine about everything, every signing every post, do you eat a lot of lemons?}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:42:02
JONES- PLEASE DONT GO TO SCUM!!!!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:39:08
So all looks well atm ha ha lots of my scum mates are asking why we are looking at these fellers!! kenny has been watching kids football for a long long time and has seen the young talent at clubs through out the years, knows what he is getting!!! we all trust him.... good luck mr liverpool

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:35:55
Phil jones would be highly overrated, scott dann would be much better value..now hopefully we move for him

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:35:30
phil jones is off to man utd, if chose them over us he can get lost there is better then him out there anyway.

08 Jun 2011 12:35:26
Phil jones has signed a five year deal with the Manc scummers worth 16-18million.SURPRISE reports he was in Liverpool earlier or flying to Denmark.
Looks like we will step up our attempts to sign scott dann from Birmingham as our centre back reinforcement

08 Jun 2011 12:34:42
Just read that Phil Jones his in fact heading to the SCUM, they just can't leave our targets alone can they!!!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:34:41
We snatched Henderson from Man UTD and they are looking to do same to us with Phil Jonson

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:34:05
jones was shown around melwood yesterday but it now seems man u might be in with a shot of landing him now its all down to him who he chooses

LEECH

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:33:43
Jones at United having medical. Clearly doesn't know what is good for him. The anti-Liverpool press will laugh but that's okay, we'll just have Sakho instead.

Adam.

12:28 Editor:
Sky Sports sources understand Phil Jones is not heading for Anfield but is in fact having a medical ahead of signing a five-year deal with Manchester United. We'll bring you more details as we get them.

What now ed Whats happening. {Ed001's Note - not sure, they did say he was on a flight to Denmark so they obviously don't know either!}

Henderson will pass his medical and then the official site will anounce that a fee has been agreed with B'burn over Jones, exopect them both to sign today.

You'll see.

We'll sign Wickham soon too,

Downing won't be a Liverpoolfc player coming season.

Expect big signings on the wings.

Mata is the most likely.

/Jaaz
------------------

Are not Henderson, Jones and Wickham big enough for you??

they may well cost us 20, 17 and 10-12 mil resp.....

plus the left back

And thats big money already.......

LiverBird

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:27:38
Henderson is not worth 20 Million
Ngog is not worth 7 Million
Jones is not worth 16 Million
And N'zogbia is an awful player

Henderson will not get infront of, Lucas, Gerrard or Raul neither will Charlie Adam.

Liverpool need to be going for Wingers the likes of Adam Johnson, Mata

Please post this because all the other people that post things on this website are armchair fans!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:27:37
dont pay to much attention to ssn they reported kk as a kevin keegan, trust me they are guessing most things like everyone else.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:27:28
Surely if Ngog goes to sunderland we are in need of another striker? any ideas?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:14:27
Henderson will be signed for the right side of midfield, yes he is versatile and has played a central role for sunderland at times due to their injury problems.
So dont be shocked to see 'another' central midfield player sign (most probably Adam).
I wouldnt expect Mata, he will end up in a bidding war which valencia obviously want to get big money for him. Downing or N'Zogbia are likely.
Hope we get Jones before the mancs! And Dann wants to come.
King Kenny wont let us down, he suprised us in the January window, im sure he will do it again!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:12:00
Surely thats the end of c adam to liverpool rumours, i for one am glad we were getting quoted over 10m for adam and yet we only paid 13m in cash for one of the best up and coming players in the country. Bravo comolli, KK etc...

08 Jun 2011 12:09:47
hey Ed's....i think henderson and jones will be two great signings for us but do you think that spending big in areas that are strong in our team mean's there is still plenty of money left for the problem areas that you feel would have been signed first ie left back and left wing {Ed001's Note - yes, there is money to spend for the right players.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:09:02
Ed as you seem to be the fountain of all knowledge so where so you see Kuyt playing next year? Not the most exciting of players but one of our most consistent players in the last few years, never injured always gives 100% in every game plus every manager loves what he has to offer. Great site ed {Ed001's Note - he will play up front, that is where Kenny feels he performs at his best, and I agree totally with that.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:07:50
Sorry for a text about betting odds, but Charlie Adam has gone from 13/8 second fav behind Manure to 10/1 on ha ha.Dont care what anyone says he's a class player more or less self taught with being frozen out at Rangers to Blackpool were he was just given free licence to do what he wanted, thats why he's only got about 15 caps for Scotland at 25 years old.His talent is there for all to see just the tactical side of his game needs improving , imagine what K.K could mould him into.There's gonna be a real chance we might score from a corner next season, shocking eh ha ha. Jonny Boy6

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:06:05
Hey Ed(s) just a wanted your thoughts on some things...

Do you think the imminent/potential signings of Henderson and P Jones respectively are good signings? Because with how well Lucas has started to play, and the growing faith in Shelvey and Spearing, I don't see how he'll be utilized? P Jones can also play CDM so yet another possible midfielder.

As for wingers, I'd like Mata and Downing. However, they're both left footed and I see a need for an out-n-out right sided player who won't naturally want to cut in, and instead go down the line a deliver accurate crosses (who is for the scouts to determine! lol), your thoughts?

Thanks Ed(s)...please post on rumours.

..::LojR::.. {Ed001's Note - Henderson is likely to play on the right with Jones in defence, they won't affect Spearing, Shelvey or Lucas.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 12:03:26
All you nesv doubters should take a look at yourself, they are prepared to pay 20m for a player in a position in which we are already one of the strongest in the league so this shows they mean business. I for one am very positive about this summer and cannot wait to see what else is in store. These guys are winners and will stop at nothing

08 Jun 2011 11:55:28
Ed, I am totally made up with the signing of Henderson. He is a top quality signing who will soon show that £13m plus Ngog was an absolute bargain. Henderson has it all. His ability to keep the ball moving with first time passes is superb. He can effortlessly spot and deliver a 50 yard pass and has a superb box to box engine. Old whisky face must be choaking on his breakfast liquers. This signing reminds me in many ways of the time we lost out to old whisky face for Roy Keane This time the boot is on the other foot. This is a top to quality move with all the hallmarks of canny king Kenny. Pass and move was made for Henderson. I expect that he will start out on RM where he has the undoubted ability to make crosses for carroll. In a couple of years he can then make the CM his spot. If Gerard is unfit he can fill in and this gives king Kenny superb options. Full marks to kk dc jwh and all the team. If the summer continues as it starts we are in for a very very happy 2011-2012 season. Reality Red

08 Jun 2011 11:54:32
Question eds.there saying the deal is worth 20mill.so does that meen its 13mill and that sunderland along with us value ngog at 7 million?

Thanks {Ed001's Note - I am not 100% sure, but it does seem to be the agreed final figure, we will only know for definite when the accounts are done.}

ARSENAL FANS DIG AT LIVERPOOL
..................................................

Quite right as well!
We have paid £20 million for a young player. This is ridiculous. Only Arsenal have the right to 'young' players.
Arsene Wenger has been banging on about his young team (Arshavin and van Persie closer to 30 than 20!) for years.
He's like Peter Pan ..... everything is forever young.
Green eyes abound?

08 Jun 2011 11:47:47
"I have to be honest tho I'm a little gutted that young won't be coming but I do think that somebody like N'Zogbia could do the job as good as young could.
Have we had and interest in N'Zogbia since the end of the season?"

Luis Suarez is to leave Liverpool after becoming fed up and disillusioned with being taken off 4 minutes from the end of the last game. According to the radio talkSH**E, he was staggered at being substituted and has vowed never again to play for Kenny Comoli, the manager. In an interview with Alan '4 Barrels' Brazil (incidentally managing to work a full week without suffering a hangover or being ill with a bad sac) Suarez said, "I cannot believe that Dominic Strauss-Kahn is guilty and when I was taken off in the last game with less than four minutes to go, it was equally as unbelievable!"
Alan Brazil commented: "Eternity? Brilliant! Can't wait!"

This recent episode has opened up a can of worms at LFC. It has also been reported that Lucas Leiva and Maxi Rodriguez have fallen out over the Falkland Islands. Leiva from Brazil (a country that was pro Allies in WW2) was incensed when Maxi drove into the car park and took his parking space. What followed was a significant row and this has led to speculation this morning that Frank Lumplard is significantly overweight and reliant on his family connections for a new contract. Despite this specualtion, Lumplard has vowed to continue his badge-kissing thanks to a new contract with Lipsil and public homages to his family with gestures on the pitch.

There is a serious risk of internecine warfare at Liverpool and fans have been posting concerns on football forums all week. The staggering amounts of money being given to the manager Damien Dalglish to buy new players has shown the faith the management have in the manager. But it also shows how the club is turning its back on its traditional support in refusing to resign Hyppia, Alonso and Ian St.John.

According to Joe Boxall from Toxteth, this is typical of the attitude of Liverpool's senior management figures.
"I have been a supporter of this club for 27 years and never in all my time supporting this club have I ever been ignored like this. I am a real fan as opposed to those nonces that spend £15,000 a year on a corporate box and eat pawn sandwiches and drink that Cabinet Sobeone wine stuff. Us real fans get lagered up before every game and yet we get no respect. I was with my 15 year old son in Alicante last week and he agrees with me - I look better in white socks and Nike trainers wiv me Gola shorts and top on than he does."

It looks increasingly likely that Jordan henderson will be sold at the end of today as he is widely regarded as a flop since agreeing to talks to possibly sign, maybe, for the club in the past week. As Tony Totti, the Italian chef who work in the club's architectural and gardens division pointed out:
"Henderson has been a complete failure at Liverpool and not managed to score a single goal for Liverpool since indicating he was interested in a move. We all wanted Tit Camara to come back and resign. Just shows what Damien Dalglish knows about players!"

Final word goes to Ronnie Irani who interrupted (surely not?) himself to say about Liverpool:
"I know nothing about sports apart from cricket, but what is important to remember is that Liverpool is an English club. What they have done to Henderson and the way they have treated Lewis Soorez is not the way my team would have treated them. I would advise any player looking to sgn for Liverpool to check out my new book available in all discount bin ends in 99p Stroes and ALDI."

Finally, thanks to Alan Brazil who was able to say, "World Cup 2088? Brilliant! Can't wait!"

Hello ed, Hendeson is done, U say Jones is 99% and what about wickham. Any info regarding wickham {Ed001's Note - no I said a fee is agreed, not that he is done regarding Jones. That is only a part of it, there are add ons, personal terms and a medical at least. Wickham I have nothing on other than his desire to join us.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 11:39:03
ed you dnt knw what ur on about i asked u abut the henderson deal and u said liverpool have no chance 2/10 chance, and it was a twitter rumour ... {Ed001's Note - and your point is? That I didn't know ahead of time? No one at Liverpool did, the leaks came from Sunderland. I don't do the out of ten thing and openly say I just put random numbers down when I do them, so the 2/10 is just pointless to bring up. Funny though, you aren't having your little dig at SSN who were hours behind and they get paid to find these things out!}

''Arsenal have announced the signing of 19-year-old Finland Under-21 defender Carl Jenkinson from Charlton.''

Maybe the've given up on Jones?

08 Jun 2011 11:30:21
the biggest mistake we could make is buy downing instead of mata, simply because mata is higher in quality and much younger and we would be over loading our first team with english players that simply not good enough. i doubt very much dalglish will choose downing over perotti or mata.

With Henderson signing up, and all indications that Phil Jones could well be on his way to Liverpool - It looks as though we have the long term replacements for Gerrard and Carragher joining the ranks.
With N'Gog on his way to Sunderland, it looks almost certain that a new striker will also be arriving.

08 Jun 2011 11:28:54
Ed, Doesnt Mata, Downing and Johnson all preferably play on the left wing? Who are our right wing targets? Or do you think we will keep Kuyt and maybe push Glen Johnson up to the right wing?

Cheers,

RedChris {Ed001's Note - I think Glen, Henderson and Kuyt will be used, unless we can bring in a right winger. Maybe even Gerrard too, he had his best season out there.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 11:26:12
Hi Ed001 - been reading thru the posts a lot and can't seem to believe what I'm reading about Meireles being supposedly allowed to leave. What would be the basis for this? I think he made quite an impact to the team this year, scored important goals and played quite well etc. Can you please enlighten me ed? {Ed001's Note - it seems to have started because he was upset about being played out wide, though he is not keen on the physical nature of the league.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 11:24:35
hi eds, i was just wondering where does henderson prefer to play. some people are saying on the wing, so would we use him mainly as a winger or will be there to replace someone in midfield? {Ed001's Note - he doesn't seem to mind, I would expect him to play right side of midfield mainly though.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 11:22:20
hey eds,
now that the henderson deal is sealed..it seems that we have turned our attention to adam as most reports confirm...doesnt that seem abit odd?
i mean the central midfield is fully packed in this case!
is there any truth to merieles or other midfilder leaving then? {Ed001's Note - it is not true, yet, he is away, nothing will happen with him until he returns.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 11:19:55
Nothing to do with lfc
Potentially huge news coming out of Spain, where Catalunya Radio is reporting that Barcelona have reached a preliminary agreement to sign Cesc Fabregas from Arsenal.

08 Jun 2011 11:19:17
Sky best suspeded there betting on Jones. Eddie i want to know about this, why do they suspend it. Is it done after the player signs? (plz answer it if possible) {Ed001's Note - it is suspended because a lot of money was laid on him to sign for Liverpool.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 11:18:04
do you still think there is a good chance of signing mata eds? {Ed001's Note - he is only a possibility, no way of knowing the likelihood of him joining until Valencia are ready to come to the negotiating table. By then we might have signed other targets and no longer want him. Or there might be too much competition willing to pay too much money.}

ahh ok cheers, i would love to see mata and adam johnson on the wings, both top class in my opinion

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 11:08:19
The England international, 20, will head to Anfield on Wednesday to have a medical and discuss personal terms.

A statement from Sunderland said: "A fee has been agreed with Liverpool for Jordan Henderson and he travels to Anfield today with the club's blessing."

Press Association Sport understands the deal is worth in the region of £20million, while it is thought French striker David Ngog could travel in the opposite direction,

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 11:08:08
Just got a text off my mate who's a Sunderland fan he's gutted, i wasn't to sure about the lad to be honest but the fact that the Sunderland fans hold him in such high regard has changed my mind. Reading the Liverpool website its says the deal is worth £20m with Ngog worth £7m going the other way, if thats true surely thats good business. I wonder if this will be the only signing today?

Also good luck to David Ngog i hope he does well.

always a red

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 11:06:03
Ngog going opens the door for a Wickham deal ?

I think just as for CARROLL we are paying too much money. Where would he fit into a Liverpool first 11?

--------------Reina----------------
Johnson--Carra----Skrtel----?Enrique?
-----Meireles-Gerrard-Henderson-----

I'm really not sure as to the validity of this, but I've heard that Phil Jones is travelling, as planned, to Denmark with the U-21 squad. Not sure how this will affetct the deal or whether he will meet up with the squad at a later date.

08 Jun 2011 10:54:50
just looking at other teams fans having digs at the fee for carroll and now henderson, and I wonder who else we sign that they'll have a go at. We paid a lot for carroll, everyone knows, but once he gets fit, and adapts to our style of play, he'll be as potent around that box as drogba has been for chelsea. no centre half likes playing against a powerful striker. as for henderson, havnt seen him enough, but again, if he improves on his england call up, he'll be worth virtually double within a couple of seasons. the blue print apparently are young talent, with saleability, maybe jones will be next, would be nice to see him, even though again i havnt seen much of him, just to know that we can get them ahead of the so called big boys. like i was saying about some having a go at fees, i remember ferdinand going for abt 18m at a young age, and 30m 9 yrs ago, and nobody said much then, is it cos we're liverpool and we're not meant to be buying good players??!!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:47:29
Seriously? We've agreed a deal for henderson? And we're ACTUALLY close to getting Jones? A few weeks ago i would have taken Downing as one of our wingers because i thought we were just going to be looking at englishmen, and cheap ones at that. And now we're yoinking all the wonder dons?
Gotta be honest i thought the whole Jones thing was just because he's the best young english defender on fm2011, but maybe John Henry plays as well i dunno.....what i do know is that at 6 this morning i felt like i'd been licking the inside of an orangutan all night, and now i feel happy as spurs fan on a tour of fort knox...TIGHT RHYMES BREDREN, TIGHT RHYMES

08 Jun 2011 10:45:12
I think all this talk of wanting Young is without much thought. He is not that good. If we are going to sign anyone from Blackburn, we should be signing David "junior" Hoillett. This kid can play. Seems humble enough, and wouldn't command an astronomical fee. Thought?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:43:40
Well said runcorn red , people need to chill out.
Your all worrying about money being spent on Henderson , maybe we have a lot more money to spend than everyone thinks!
Kk knows our main weakness is width , so I'm sure there's plenty of cash there for them areas.

LAVERS

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

I admit that I have been moaning about the Henderson's fee but I don't doubt the talent of the lad. Sorry ed001 there would be no more moaning from me.
The reported deal of 13m+N'gog is great. I trust in KK and atleast we are now showing intent to get the best youngsters available. This summer is going to be fantastic.
Cheers

VM YNWA

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:41:52
The way I see it is that Liverpool have paid in total 15m as ngog is only worth 2 million. Get deal for Liverpool getting a future England international and getting rid of a rubbish player. Ynwa

One down (N'gog) 11 to go;
B Jones, P Konchesky, F Aurelio (shame too injury prone), J Cole (100k p.w), M Jovanovic (120k p.w), S Kyrgiakos, C Poulson, A Aquilani, P Degen, N El Zhar, E Insua.
Can also see leaving us unfortunately; D Agger (too injury prone), R Meireles (lightweight).
Signings;
P Jones, L Baines, C N'Zogbia (homegrown), A Young, J Mata, C Wickham

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:30:02
ED what shirt number do you think henderson will be given. I was thinking 11 but would the owners give that to mata/downing/jarvis if they were to sign? {Ed001's Note - I think he will probably get the number of someone who leaves, such as Cole.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:29:37
It look like Old whiskey nose has got his claws into Phil Jones.
Don't get me wrong i'd love us to pull it of the bag, but with the odds dropping on SkyBet and the Mirrors exclusive I have a bad feeling.
It's up to the lad where he goes and if he chooses ManUtd is as much his loss as ours.
After all KK & DC a looking for young talent that they can mould, so there has got to be someone else out there that will won't to play for us, British or not.

I still hope he does sign, but not looking likely.
What's word on the grapevine and what's your gut feeling Ed's?

Markolfc. {Ed001's Note - my gut feeling is we will get him, but that is all it is as it will come down to his choice.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:25:03
To all the concerned fans, who feel wehave paid crazy money for henderson. But its feels to be great, from what I just have got to know. Liverpool have a great philosophy for the future. looking forward for a big summerm, ahead. frnz, don't worry academy is our future. amazing philosophy, I really hope it works. Looking for a great future. Absolutely excited. YNWA
I hope you got what I wanna say! You'll get to know it in near future.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:23:42
if henderson is 13m and ngog at 7m that is huge. we bought ngog for around 1.5m and found a team that would take him. 7million for ngog is HUGE

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:20:58
If Young is going to Man Utd why not try a cheaky bid of between 10-15 mil for Samir Nasri. Shirley (Don't call me Shirley) he can see we are building a title winning squad and at 23 fits right in with the boards view of young players. What do you think Ed's?
Unklemad. {Ed001's Note - not so sure he would be worth buying myself, he played brilliantly until Christmas, was not up to much after that. I am not sure he would fit with our team, where would we play him?}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:17:04
Anyone else think we should leave adam where he is? He's slow can't tackle is fat and is only usefull when the ball isn't moving. I think he would slow play down a lot. So far all our midfielders are high energy. Adam doesn't fit

08 Jun 2011 10:17:00
Delighted Sanchez is going to Barca and not those mancs and Coentrao Is also going to Real instead of united oh its a good day.
Last season for the mancs wasn that good, fair enough they won the league but internally I think they are falling apart. Ferguson's retirement is constantly flying around, Giggs and Rooney cant keep it in there pants, top scorer Berbatov and I think top assister Nani are basically being shown the door and there debt is mounting every day to be honest I can see the time of the Manc ending and I know it will be King Kenny putting the final nail in a manc coffin!!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:15:38
Hi Eds,
Do you think Shane Long is a viable option as a back up striker, decent goal scoring record at both club and international level, reminds me of a younger Dirk Kuyt , he'd cost around 5 million. People have said hes not Liverpool material, but I think KK would get the best out of him. He has premiership experience , so its not as if we are throwing out 40 million on Aguero who has no experience of the physicality of the premiership.

Rebel_Red {Ed001's Note - no, I think he is extremely average.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:12:12
the way King Kenny is going I wouldnt be suprised if after sorting our first team he secured more young talent like Jordan Spence, De Leat, Wallace, Lansbury etc.
Apart from Jones and Dann is there any speculation on looking for young talent? I heard a rumour Steve Clarke is on young talent but thats the problem with rumours, no evidence. so ED's did you hear anything??

LFC Paddy {Ed001's Note - we have scouts out everywhere looking for players, Clarke is a coach.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:09:48
Eds, I'm a bit confused with the Henderson deal. Ssn say the fee is 20million plus ngog but is that Liverpool paying Sunderland 20mil and then giving ngog aswell, or is it money+ngog that adds up to 20million???
Bean {Ed001's Note - until the accounts are released it is hard to say for sure, but the official line is in excess of 20m including Ngog.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:10:45
James Ducker of The Times said the Phil Jones MAY be having a medical at Melwood today too.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:09:57
All this talk of an other striker no mention of etoo who is availableat about 15 - 20 mil would be a great signing what do use think lads? YNWA

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:03:22
People please, The deal for Henderson is worth £20m, LFC are not paying £20m.

I have no sources to suggest what the actual fee is but would i be right in assuming it will be around the £12m-£14m mark with Ngog going the other way, eds?

LONDONRED. {Ed001's Note - yes.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 10:02:54
jordan henderson 20 million. sunderland are laughing all the way to the bank. carroll 35million. i recon that mob would by my gran for a few million.

Dalglish has always had a soft spot for his Geordies and Mackems. Good players, hard b**tards, don't notice the cold - mad as snakes. Just what any team needs. Good call Kenny.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:52:11
hi eds,

This might be me just stating the obvious but i get the feeling that well look back at this point in our history as being massive. Seems like we are looking at all the best prospects for the future and just going for it, im personally really excited and have total faith in whats happening but its gonna be looked back on as either a huge success or failure. Really hope we can get bojan as think hes a awesome prospect.

Again might be obvious but please post would like your views!

Jonny lfc {Ed001's Note - I am in full agreement, we are not looking at random youngsters who might turn out great, like Arsenal, but the best youngsters around.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:48:11
ed i live in coventy, and seen henderson when he was at loan with coventry and he was played mostly on the left wing where he done a brill job. i think the fee is a bit high but in comparison he is english so that on its own has added about 5m on the deal so i really think we have got a real good buy.

plse tell me we r close to getting jones aswell as he is quality and i hope we get an offer for the injury prone agger in the region of about 10-12m as we cant afford to keep having him in the treatment room, but would Jones be a starter next to carra or would it be skrtel.

now Ngog has all but gone we will need another str so i personally believe we should go all out for mata now as i dont rate Wickham and certainly not at 10m, and we need to stop this slow sh*t and sign cissokho for lb i no that Lyon will want a massive fee but he is pure quality and would be excellent for us as Robinson would flourish under him. i woluld also like another winger someone like Payet to come in.

08 Jun 2011 09:47:31
This is just a thought, don't slate me for it. If reports are to be believed about Henderson's transfer fee which is believed to be around 20mill (including David Ngog) isn't he a bit pricy for the amount or should I put it this way, isn't this a bit of a risky move? No doubt about his ability, however being only 20 yrs of age and not overly proven in the premiership, I feel the move is a bit risky. However in Kenny we trust and he must have seen and thought about how he was going to utilise and groom the player before signing henderson. As was evdient in Spearings displays last season when given his chance to feature in the first team. I truly hope that my doubts are proven wrong and henderson develops into a maestro in his position at LFC. I was excited about the capture of Aquaman 2 yrs ago when he first signed and he didn't really live upto the expectations did he? Time will tell I guess..Scouse Africa

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:46:42
theres a definite buzz in the air today, there is something else going to happen today i can feel it

ed what dya think ? {Ed001's Note - I think so too, I expect the Jones move to happen or break down today.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:45:47
Liverpool have agreed a £20m deal with Sunderland for centre midfielder / right winger Jordan Henderson which also sees David N'Gog go the other way. Now this is what I've read which seems a terrible deal, unless we've paid around £14m and gave them N'Gog, or he's going on loan. Either way he's been Sunderland's Player of the Year for the past 2 years now and at 20 is a fantastic deal for the future.
I also believe we'll agree a deal for Scott Dann AND Phil Jones, with Jones able to play CM as well and would provide cover on a large scale. Charles N'Zogbia is a big likely for left wing, although £15m could prove to be a stumbling block. See, Kenny is after players who have proven themselves in the Premier League and those who provide versatility which is why Charlie Adam is a huge likely to join, able to play wing and centre mid. I also believe we'll sign Connor Wickham in the coming weeks, but he'll stay at Ipswich for the season.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:43:21
The signing of henderson is great news and the reports of us chasing jones are also very promising its great to see that finally we have owners that are willing to spend and know that its best to strike early in the transfer market to get what you want.hopefully the days of us scraping around at the end of the transfer window for bargains and free agents have gone.
i cant wait for the euro transfer window to open on the july 1st who knows what else we have lined up.
so this season lets get behind our boys because it looks like finally we are aiming back up to where we belong YNWA

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:39:40
Guys guys have you noticed how nice it is that the argentine from AM hasn't been talked about for a couple days? Henderson= breath of fresh air....

Square tomato

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:39:28
{Ed001's Note - I am about 99.999% certain we have also agreed a fee with Jones.}

You pulling our leg Ed, or...?
I so hope you're right! This would make my day - agreeing fees with two of the best youngsters in the country!

Stone YNWA. {Ed001's Note - only agreed a fee though, it is a long way from getting him because he has other interest to consider, unlike Henderson who only has to decide to join us or stay where he is.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:39:00
If liverpool are keeping business on the down low how did all the Henderson news get out? And I've heard nothing about jones so does that mean that deal is being done properly by Liverpool ed? Coz if another club was in negotiations I'm sure we would have heard all about it by now {Ed001's Note - most of the leaks were coming from Sunderland. Blackburn are not so open about transfers.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:38:19
Please tell me we won't pay £16-18m for Downing. He's 27 next month and won't have any resale value. I'd pay £10m tops for him (1 year on contract). £20m for Mata is far better as he's only 23 and will have resale value if needed.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:36:54
Ed, what makes you so sure about Phil Jones? Hope you're right though, I think he's the best option for central defence we could realistically go for. {Ed001's Note - just the number of people telling me he was shown round, I am only confident we have a chance of getting him, not that we will.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:35:22
ed's I trust KK fully but i mean we've bought henderson and we still want Adam any ideas why? I'm guessing they may be replacing both Merlies and poulsen? {Ed001's Note - Henderson is more likely to play wide, so Adam would be the central midfielder.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:35:22
it looks like the king is being a very busy man, henderson in the bag, jones maybe signed later on today aswel and hes also going for young wickham

the owners are certainly doing there part by supporting him with money, finally a summer that is full of excitement instead of disappointment

long live the king

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:32:44
Love the fact that we are after young talent but isnt this similar to what rafa was doing? spanish, hungarian etc etc. we have the youth in pacheco, sterling, coady, flanagan, robinson and many more. yes wickham, jones, henderson are quality but is this going to harm our kids coming through.
we need a good stand in for carroll as i doubt his fitness, i have heard that we are in for higuain but wages will be high. i would forget young and rush through sterling!!! and down the right push through johnson to right wing and flanagan behind with kelly pushing him. or couldnt we put kelly in centre half spot and forget jones!!
as im writing this ssn say adam next on the radar!! where is he gonna play ffs with gerrard back that would push spearing out ( shame but not complete enough) then would adam replace lucas or miereles, i think not. So i believe one of lucas, spearing or miereles will leave. myn opinion is spearing for 5 million to a newly promoted team or makeweight for future player. all in all kenny and damien have done a great job so do have faith, just dont want to see our own youth be pushed down the ladder as there are some superstars there.

08 Jun 2011 09:31:10
The only thing im worried about next season is if Jes s Fernandez Suso isn't either Playing in The 1st team or on the bench next season. He is the best youngster in this country and much better then we all think. I dont worry that much about who were going to sign. The players were interested in so far are classy young technically gifted players and they would be replacing the players that are leaving. Phil Jones and Jordon Henderson will be our first 2 signings. Juan Mata and Juan Vargas/Jose Angel will hopefully will be our next signings in July along with Doni, another left back or left winger. We should see another signing for the Right midfield position too, Whoever that will be I dont know. Im gonna put a grand down on Liverpool to win the Premiership next season at 10/1 I think some people forget who he is, he's Kenny Dalglish!!! The best player thats ever played for this club and in my opinion this country, back at work in Anfield, changing things, injecting that culture back onto the team, back onto the fans. People need to relax because a new dawn is arising, Liverpool are back to take what belongs to them, its been a long time coming but were back. Our future looks very promising especially with all the young british and foreign talent we have at the club, were going to end up dominating all over again. The premiership ain't gonna know whats hit them. We have a youngster at the club that looks like he will be one of the best players in the world. Just pure class waiting to be unleashed by Dalglish!!!

love how until about 3-4 days ago noone knew anything about henderson and now we've agreed a fee. i LOL to all these people with 'inside info'.

similar to the raul M deal, noone knows until it's announced.

have faith in jh, tw, ia, dc and kk. and until then, stfu...

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:25:13
If Liverpool are signing Henderson for £20 mil and people are talking about Agger being sold for £11 mil, there is something seriously wrong, yes Agger has his injury problems but when fit he is our best defender and one of the best in the league, we'd be stupid to let him leave

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:24:25

Henderson....great signing but the best news is Ngog leaving, gawd knows how he stayed with us for so long!! He is PONY....Jones, Adam, Marveaux and Downing to sign with the dead wood (you know who you are) leaving.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:23:24
Can't believe some of these so called supporters Ed, they do my head in , last three summers we haven't had a carrot rummaging around bargain basement, leftovers for average journeymen , having to sell off our best players and slowly becoming an average side relying too heavily on Gerard and when he was here Torres now we have the backing of the owners and we are going for some of Britains up and coming stars they are complaining, get a grip i know we've been had off by the other carpetbaggers and it's been a hard couple of years but have FAITH all is well, We are in safe hands, be Optimists not pessimists blessya loads YNWA {Ed001's Note - I remember the first time Dalglish came in, it seemed a crazy choice, he was our best player, the team was incredible already. He came in and bought players that all the fans questioned and wondered what he was doing buying them. Then we got to watch us play, what we saw was breathtaking, he made the best team in the world better.}

who seriously saw this henderson transfer happening a month ago? I think had you asked the eds they would have given a 1/10 and most would agree... But credit to everyone on this site, feels like we score a goal together everytime a transfer comes to fruition

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:18:27
Hey everyone (: Henderson is done how happy are you with that? ED's? {Ed001's Note - I am pleased myself, I think he is a lad with a lot of talent, he can go far in a pass and move system that should suit his game.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:15:50
Fee for Henderson is not £20m, it is £12.8m plus Ngog, it would have been mad to pay £20m plus Ngog.

That would have made to the total fee £28m approx as we value Ngog at £8m.

Hi Eds,
Do you think Raheem Stirling will get more game time next season, i can only comment on what I ve seen of him on lfc tv , but the lad looks v promising, bags of pace, eye for goal , good crosser, do u think he cud provide cover for the likes of Downing/Mata . Like Flanagan and Robinson, if your good enough your old enough .
What you think?

Rebel_Red {Ed001's Note - I expect him to get a chance next season, but not starts, more like the Shelvey role from this season.}

Liverpool are bidding for Sunderland's Jordan Henderson. Apparently the Merseyside club have bid £13million + David N'Gog, although Sunderland are trying to negotiate for £12m straight cash.

08 Jun 2011 09:08:52
What happened to You'll Never Walk Alone. We sign a young future England international for £13 million and ngog and people are moaning! This kid is only 19 can you imagine what his value would be if he has a good season with us. People need to show faith in KK and DC. I have no doubt in my mind at all that which ever player KK decides to brings in will help us improve and he will be doing it for the good of the club. Not to line his own pockets with back handers like most of the premier league managers. We all have to trust KK and remember the saying You'll Never Walk Alone because this sums up the foundations of what a great club we are and with KK in charge i can only see him re-producing what the great Shanks once said in building Liverpool into a Bastion of Invinceability.

Runcorn Red!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:08:35
I'm really glad Henderson has signed for Liverpool, after watching him play at Carrow road for England u21 back in october. I was really impressed watching him play in centre midfield the way he had time on the ball , and an eye for a pass. I think he could be the new Alonso.

How come there are so many posts regarding Henderson?

Where was his name mentioned on this site before....???

What has happened to all those posts regarding 'inside information'?

What happened to inside information before the Henderson deal??

Great site still and love reading the Eds put people down in the most subtle of fashion (keep up the good work Eds)

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 09:00:00
can someone please clarify the deal for henderson......is it 13m - 15m + ngog ?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 08:59:56
To clarify to people the fee is £20m including N'gog who is valued at £6-8m. So the actual cash amount liverpool will be paying is between £12-14m. Not that bad when you think about it that way.

On an another note we got N'gog for £1.5m so have made between £4.5--6.5m on him....not too shabby at all.

08 Jun 2011 08:36:57
Just a comment. So days of transfer rumours, inside knowledge, squad lists and formations on this site and sage comments from Eds: But nobody mentioned Henderson did they? I have not seen his name anywhere!! Its also been revealed that Carrol was an LFC target months before he signed? Again - all the usual nonsense about Aguero, Mata - complete nonsense. Whilst behind the scenes Anfield was stalking Newcastle's #9. Maybe this is not a proper rumour site, but more just wild and ill inforned speculation site? Still, keep coming back. Drew.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 08:36:25
Man utd fans now calling henderson an average signing l0l... I agree with them that we overpaid for carrol though, but who cares? We are spending bagloads of money and are only getting started while the highlight of their transfer window will be de gea and ashley young. Ed is it true that we're only paying sunderland 13m and david ngog for henderson? (please say yes!)
Red bl00ded!

{Ed006's Note - That is how I understand it, yes.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 08:34:40
Good look to Ngog, had the ability but was too slow and weak. Will be better in Sunderland's attacking 3, they needed a replacement for Bent, someone to just get on the end of their attacks and to get goals. I think if he starts every game he will surprise people with how many goals he gets.

Couple of questions Ed, how much is the Henderson fee now that Ngog is going the other way? Also, do you know why we are still after Adam? What is the plan for him? We will then have Gerrard, Lucas, Meireles, Henderson, Spearing and Shelvey AND Adam in the middle.

{Ed006's Note - The fee is £13m + N'Gog. I don't want us to sign Adam as it would just disrupt the other midfielders.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 08:25:30
Lets hope KK can work his magic of getting players on getting shot of some players or we are going to over stocked in Midfield:

Gerrard
Henderson
Adam (Possible)
Lucas
Raul
Shelvey
Poulsen
Spearing
Maxi
Aquilani

10 Players for potentially 2-3 players (excluding potential new wingers)

They must have some interest in some of these players because I cant see how 10 Midfielder's fits into FSG's wage structure and plans.

YNWA jns

{Ed006's Note - Maxi isn't really a CM. Aquilani and Poulsen will be sold. I expect Spearing or Shelvey to be loaned out for a season.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 08:24:41
Hey ed, do you think it is possible that both Phil Jones and Scott Dann could be signed this summer, if Kyrgiakos and one of Agger of Skrtel leave? It wouldn't be a bad partnership would it, especially with Carra there as well, I think we would be solid.

Also, do you know of any good players worth watching next season from the teams who have been promoted?

Adam {Ed001's Note - the problem with Dann is fitness issues, I have no idea if we will move for him because of those.}
********
Cheers for the reply, with any luck his injuries won't be a big problem.

Very optimistic about next season and the future for LFC, I get the feeling that there's going to be really good times ahead. What a far cry from last summer!

Adam

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 08:21:32
Let me break the Henderson deal down for you all. David N'Gog is £7m worth of the deal. Henderson has 5 years left on his contract at Sunderland, so, say he is on £20,000 p/w that works out at £5, 200,000m. In total that ks £12.2m so we have really paid around £7.8m for him. This is for everyone complaining that we have been conned etc.

Funny I thought we sold our Hungarian striker! I will be very surprised if we don't sign an American (hopefully Dempsey and Agudelo. Loan Agudelo out, as he has a bright future), an Asian (wish it was Honda, most likely not though and one south American "Star" ( hopefully Aguero). Plus Jones, Henderson & possibly Adams. It is becoming quite obvious that the owners want to own the best and they see Liverpool as the new crown jewel. As much as I don't care for Lebron James it was pretty cool to see him in a Liverpool training jacket in his postgame interview. Expect very big things in the near future, but more importantly for the long term! great site ed's rarely post, but check in daily!

here we go again so called fans slagging off henderson as they still do carrol, i for one will always back kk in whoever he brings in simply because the guy is a genius and i love our club and i think players like henderson are buying into kk long term aim and vision for the club so if some people don't like it tough just coz there not marquee signing's that some of you keep spouting on about you think these players aren't good enough for LFC, kk is buying players who will fit into how he wants to play and not doing wot arab city are doing and buying 'marquee' players then trying to mould them into a team, yes they got 3rd but seriously the money they've spent they should have walked the league, so if you are a fan back kk and sc if not p*ss off back to your manc or chelski page and keep dreaming about your marquee's.

I am a little bit concerned if the club sign Henderson and Jones as to how much money will be left to spend on a L.B and two quality wingers and a def mid.
I am not saying i they are not great signings but the club needs to spend large on the weak spots first.

henderson is a good signing imo, gerrard is injured more and more often , and jay whilst doing a great job at coming in last season isnt a long term answer

so even if gerrard is injured we have a midfield of

----------------------lucas
------------henderson---meireles
---mata??----------carroll-----------suarez

thats a strong midfield even without gerrard, good signing in my opinion

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 03:05:38
This may be a bit of a rant and if so I apologise in advance... I have read this site everyday for the past two years and i can't help but notice something very disturbing, Liverpool fans are hurting. They've been hurting for 20 odd years. this has been evident usually during transfer windows our many wishlists and second guessing of our club has sadly become sort of a tradition. Even after the return of the King we show very little faith in the man or the club we ''support''. the Henderson, Carroll, Jeffren interest/deals have got many Liverpool fans moaning about why not Sanchez, why not Aguero, why didnt we snap up Sahin, ''ed how about a ''cheeky'' bid(whatever the hell that is) for Subotic, why don't we buy Neymar or Turan'' well the simple answer is not that they won't come it's that we haven't registered any interest therefore meaning we don't want them let the Chelsea and Madrid's of this world have them, we'll go ahead and buy our players and we'll see who comes out on top at the end so keep your Sanchez, Coentrao, Aguero, Neymar and Hazard we'll go and buy Henderson, Vargas, Mata(hopefully) and we'll see who comes out on top. To the Liverpool fans(myself included) it's been a bumpy 20 years, i get that but maybe we should have more faith and by no means am I saying stop posting fake rumours or wishlists please go ahead you never Know JWH might just be as addicted to this site as we are! and yes, I am 16 years old(and take offence everytime a wishlist is posted somebody says it's some kid messing around, I think you'll find we "kids" are too busy chasing girls and thus can'tkeep up with the latest trends AND post nonsense on a fine rumour site like this) [Red All Over]

7m for Ngog, that's a 6m profit. Brilliant.

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 02:30:22
7m for Ngog? i really hope this is true because that means Comolli is an absolute genius as a saleman, so hopefully he can do the opposite in buying players and really drive the price down, i know it's not my money but if we save on a few it will free up money for another youngster to nurture.

Thanks ed1 for answering my question about the gist on Jeffren, only just seen reply on questions.Just got to say, its not Jordan Henderson's fault at how at what fee he went for, and to get N'gog offski as part of the deal is a master stroke.I do rate him highly from what i've seen, lets support the lad and give him every chance to flourish under K.K.I think he'll turn into a power player like Gerrard in the end but thats just my opinion, and with training and playing with Stevey G, Suarez, Maxi , Kuyt and hopefully Mata, Vargas and Jeffren and maybe even Adam, he'll learn all kinds of things dat he couldn't have dreamed at were he just came from.He was a 20 year old and they expected him to carry the team once with Bent, once Bent left his form dipped, you do get dragged down to your team mates levels sometimes especially when their as poor as Sunderlands.Give the guy a chance, we all know Young English talent is always gonna be over valued.Not the first time, wont be the last.In 2 years time max, we'll all be sayin what a bargain Henderson turned out to be.Just be patient please.

87m there maybe more who knows these are players heavily linked.thoughts ed?DORSET RED {Ed001's Note - I hope you are right, that would be a fantastic summer in my opinion.}


..........................

Great post, all very realistic targets mix of youth, experience, pace, skill, all players with the hunger to play and prove something and makes our squad look a whole let better. Combine this with the players leaving (we know who they are) would be a very successful summer.
Excellent call DORSET RED.

Henderson for a £20million valuation and Carroll for £35million tell two stories:
1. Decent English players are massively overpriced due to the new Uefa ruling (You could pick up Aguero & Martinez for the same amount!)
2. John Henry & Co have tonnes of money and are prepared to back us until we're title winners again!

08 Jun 2011 01:16:43
Just three or four years ago we were considered, alongside an aging AC Milan and an up and coming Barcelona, plus maybe Chelsea and Man.u. as the "top-table" in European football.
In-house politics, diabolical owners and a reliance on Torres, Gerrard, Alonso and Carragher to carry the deadwood has meant we've lost touch a little. However, I don't think we've lost touch as much as many of our so-called competitors would choose to believe.
Benitez lost the plot a little and who can blame him?
Roy Hodgson wasn't the genius he told us he was.
Carragher and Gerrard are older and less effective, Alonso wasn't really replaced, Aurelio and Agger trouble the medical team more than the oppositition.
We have more "ordinary" players than West Brom and Wolves combined (Spearing, N'gog, Pacheco, Meireles(?), Cole, Jovanovic, Lucas(?), Ecclestone, Wilson, Kuuyt(?), Maxi(?), Degan, El Zhar, Skirtel, Jones, Insua, Ayala)
One or two of the above may be worth keeping as squad-players (Kuuyt, Lucas and maybe Meireles & Maxi) but sentiment shouldn't come into it.
I'd keep Kuuyt as a back-up striker but not as a right-winger. Maybe as a back-up left-winger in an emergency as per his Dutch role.
Dirk's personal qualities make him an essential squad-member.....humility, enthusiasm, work-rate and World-Cup finalist medal!
Meireles has been a quality addition but, in my opinion, should or will leave if World-Class midfielders are to be brought in. He is a tad lightweight when it comes to a tackle and his crative side is slightly hit-and-miss.
Lucas Leiva has been a revelation this Season and Kenny's style has allowed him more freedom. Whilst this has been refreshing for the player has it made us "that" much better?....He's a player who, alongside Kuuyt, should be kept but not absolutely relied on.
Maxi Rodriguez was invaluable in our push for the top six or seven but wasn't really there under Roy Hodgson's mid-table push. He has skill but also an agenda....namely to(like many Argies) win contracts and impress whenever needs must. Could be useful as a magnet for decent players but not a regular-starter in my opinion.
As for prospective buys I would favour Mata, Sakho, Turan (or Honda), Izaguirre and N'zogbia.
However Henderson, Adam, A.Johnson and S.Dann would also be good buys (though not en-masse).
I favour Dalglish's British approach but, personally, don't think it offers value for money.
But, all the above considered, with all the resources at our disposal compared to last year, we are well-placed to challenge domestically.
We have Pepe Reina, Carragher, Gerrard, Agger, Lucas, Suarez, Carroll and Kuuyt to potentially build around (with a little rotation).
Imagine, though, a defence of ;Reina, (G.johnson), Flannaghan, Kelly, Sakho, Dann, ( Carra, Agger, ), (Izaguirre), N'zogbia, Robinson
A midfield of; G.Johnson, Gerrard, Lucas, Henderson,
C.Adam, J.Mata, Turan (Honda), Suso, Coady
Forwards of; Carroll, Suarez, (Mata, Honda), Kuuyt
(Morgan, N'goo, Pacheco, Sterling)
With one or two quality additions this could be the basis of a very decent squad....better than Barcelona's if we can keep them fit.
(Not forgetting the likes of Silva, Adjoran, Ince, Thomas, Wisdom, Ayala and Wilson)
Some will leave, but we've got a platform to build on.
The future is STERLING and SUSO, COADY and FLANNAGAN, ROBINSON, SILVA and NGOO.
But next season belongs to KK and DC and who we can bring in to replace the players who just haven't made it.
Here's to a hot Summer.....!!

I really do want to thank nesv for putting their money where their mouth is and letting KK get about his business as he should and we are the first club to do any signing in the transfer window which is comforting to see. Well done KK and comolli keep it up though a long transfer window ahead but it is looking good and for a change as a lfc fan we are biting our nails and eating of the scraps of other clubs.Last but not least thanks to all eds that comfort us nervous fans, due to all the previous rubbish transfer windows we have had.

Henderson deal is £13 million and £7 million-rated striker David N'Gog move to the Stadium of Light in part exchange. I just want to meet the person who rate ngog at 7m. I would have sold him for about 3m

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:44:50
Hey ed, just wondering assuming that the henderson deal is nearly done, do u think we will play barca style next year....4-3-3, 3 midfielders all comfortable on the ball, playing pass and move with no real defensive midfielder!
Also i hope we sign Dann because although Jones could be a great center half he will cost a fair bit!!
Also i know its on youtube but really like the look of jeffren suarez and at 23 he needs to move on and get on with his career!!!
Could end up being a bargain too!
front 6 next year:
Henderson....Lucas...Gerrard
Suarez....Carroll.....Suarez!
Ed do u think it will be 4-3-3 with all the centre mids we have? {Ed001's Note - I think Henderson will be used on the right more, so a 4-4-2 with a tricky left winger and Henderson on the right. Very similar to how we used to play with Barnes on the left and Houghton on the right.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:43:17
hi ed i just saw the answer for the question I asked you earlier down the ruomours it is just I panicked and wanted to know if manu had really beaten us to jones. But I do have a different question I know you always preferred vargas over mata and you think it is him mor likely we are to get, why is he better? thanks




hibsylfc {Ed001's Note - I thought Vargas was a left back? I have only seen him play there, I always saw it as him being bought to play there. I never considered the possibility of him being bought for the wing. I would prefer Mata as the winger, just, Vargas' ability from a dead ball makes him a very attractive proposition for us.}

as most suggestions from people seem to be rejected, who do you think are the most likely players to sign for liverpool this transfer window?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:37:01
would love to see pacheco given more time, think he is a class player!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:34:29
eds, any word whether henderson is nailed on for a medical on wednesday as SSN suggests or is this all still speculation? Don't understand why we are bulking up our strongest position..
PJK {Ed001's Note - it is as nailed on as can be.}

lfc.tv has not yet confirmed the henderson deal as they are waiting for the jones deal to be finalised so they can break both at the same time. Great business if you ask me. Young and hungary squad with something to prove nxt season.

N87

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

Pretty sure they're both English... {Ed001's Note - maybe they have Hungarian grandparents?}

Ed what you think of henderson deal ??? I think its a great piece of business by the king. Now for jones. What are the chances of jones ????

Keep up the good work its very apreciated

HUYTON RED {Ed001's Note - I think it is going to be an excellent signing, he has always looked like he would be a bit special. I am told that Jones is next, but that is because right now we are the only bidder.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:28:34
I heard the Henderson fee was £20m or £22m plus Ngog.

Sydney!

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:28:29
hi ed and all fans what is your opinion about the latest rumour of manu outbidding us for Phil Jones could it be true because I do think he would be good? thanks



hibsylfc {Ed001's Note - I don't believe it, United have other priorities.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:26:57
ed can u tell me is ngog deffo going as part of the henderson deal? if so, will it be 20million plus ngog, or about 15million plus ngog? thanks mate..

LFC-IRE {Ed001's Note - it is somewhere around 13-15m plus Ngog, it was his valuation that held up the deal.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:26:12
henderson to liverpool for 20 million now we will really push for a top 6 next season great news get real people and we, l be lucky to get that we need 8 first team players never mind squad players henderson is exactly that i can just see it he will have 2or3 bad games for liverpool and he wont even make the bench and remember lfc fans we have paid 20 million for him but hey dats the liverpool way why cant we have a transfer system like arsenel watch this space they, l buy little and 4 little money and they, l finish higher than us next season can we not see the problem here our defence is crap we have no wingers and lfc fans thinks we have hundreds of millions to spend on mid table players

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:18:25
Sunderland wanted £20M cash, but apparently we will be giving them £25 + Ngog! ;)


haha nice one mate!!

Great site guys.

Just a little perplexed at the rumours of Aguero and Mata et al.. that seem to be flying about??

Not once did I read anything about Henderson joining and now it seems a dead cert, few issues aside..

With this being the case I now have difficulty reading posters' notes about some of the so called 'signing imminent' players about to join LFC.

It appears as if the people posting about marque players didn't know anything about Henderson so how can you now claim to have realistic information?

The posters I'm referring to are not any of the Eds...

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice = no inside, friend of agent, son of chairman information

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:11:52
Ed001's Note - I think our left back will come from the continent myself, Vargas is getting very strong interest and I know we have closely tracked Jose Angel....)
ed i thought Barca where close to signing Angel???

Ladders {Ed001's Note - they have yet to sign him and we had him watched all season, I am still hopeful on him.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:09:20
£20 million seems way too much for Henderson, already makes me sick that we paid £35m for Carrol, although he can still prove himself.

Agree/disagree?

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:04:57
I read something about barca coming in for Enrique, the paper page did not say if it was paper talk or known fact but i think him being Spanish wouldn't surprise me if he did go there insted of coming to liverpool
what do you think ed? {Ed001's Note - I hope he goes there, I really don't rate him in the slightest.}

 

 

 

 

08 Jun 2011 00:04:32
Comoli has come up trumps again getting rid of deadwood Ngog plus 16 million and improving our team with Henderson.

Now for Aquaman, get as much as Comoli can for him and then get Mata.. Go Comoli Go

How do you know that Jeffren wont be coming and be used as a make weight with Udinese.who told ya, Pep Guardiola himself.De might insist on Afflely, he's no future there either and Barcelona prob wont have to pay as much because he's fee would be larger then Jeffrens when Sanchez and possibly Rossi signing.Liverpool have shown an interest in him and he's a rare talent belive me.And at the price we'd get him for he'd be a steal.

Does Jordan henderson spot a pass, have vision, creativity. Is he he an intelligent footballer, comfortable on the ball, two footed? See your all very excited about this lad, but why? 20 million i read, thats a lot of money. I suspect he'll be a very english type player, hardworking, powerful (maybe), tough tackling, but devoid of the intelligence foreign players have. I see him like most english players, coming unstuck in europe, where we all largely fail. I'm not excited, not one bit. I hope i'm wrong. This British/ English pusuit of players bugs me, oh and i do know about the home based players rule. Plus do we really need another central midfielder? This pursuit of young players with ' sell on value' could well lead to the purchase of less talented players.

Muzmacol ynwa {Ed001's Note - no he is not that type at all, he is very much a passer of the ball. He is not a lump it up the park, jump in feet first type at all. When I was told about him a couple of years ago, and told to look out for him, he was described as cultured. It is a label that suits him.}

Henderson is done. Its all across Sky Sports.

Sunderland wanted £20M cash, but apparently we will be giving them £25
Plus ngog reply why give them 5 mil more and a player if they wanted 20 mil cash? to the WelshKopite

 

 

 

 

07 Jun 2011 23:58:14
yup yup liver pools midfield was never world class but it will be soon with gerrard Henderson mata and downing

 

 

 

 

07 Jun 2011 23:54:47
breaking news: steve bruce getting into swing of things now with henderson getting swapped for a pile of cash and ngog. sunderland manager spotted furiously rooting around his garden shed for slightly rusty strimmer to swap for poulson. G

What is the situation with Daniel Agger from a fitness point of view.
Will he be injury prone for the rest of his career or are his injury problems just a bad phase in his career.

 

 

 

 

07 Jun 2011 23:48:04
If we sell Meireles then we are retarded. He has been one of the Premier Leagues best players this season. PFA Fans Player Of The Year, well deserved aswell. We should get rid of Poulsen and let Henderson, Gerrard and Raul all play in midfield.

 

 

 

 

07 Jun 2011 23:45:26
Says on SSN that ngog is to be included in the deal for Henderson. Anyone know if its a loan or permanent deal?

 

 

 

 

07 Jun 2011 23:45:14
20 million bloody hell that's a lot for a kid who hasn't exacty done much. But who am I to doubt king Kenny.

07 Jun 2011 23:44:56
I'm assuming previously posts stating we have offered £16m + ngog appear to be true (deal worth £20m according to ssn). Obscene amount if money if ya ask me, let's hope he knuckles downwind fulfills his potential!

I have been reading posts and I do reply to a lot of them, now KK I trust in what he does, he is passionate about LFC, I agree with the youth policy, but do you not think along with the youth we need mature signings aswell? I m not talking 30+ but 25-28.
It seems a lot of the talk about signings are young, very talented players who will build a future for LFC, but I personally think we need a couple of mature players to help bring the youth through, yes I know we got stevie and carra, but maybe a couple of experienced signings, dont have to be top draw signings, but epl experienced players who can help devlop the youngsters. Mcallister, what a difference he made to Liverpool, that sort of player.
I might get shot down in flames over this , but I look at the long run, the future, build for the future today, I think in the past few years we ve built for the coming season, as much as i want LFC to win the premiership asap I think we need to have a constant title challange, year in year out

Would be intrested on hearing the ed s views on this, and everyone elses

kevc {Ed001's Note - we already have Meireles, Kuyt, Maxi, Pepe and are adding Doni. I think we have plenty of experience myself but I can understand your thinking.}
