Hey eds

I don't think Suarez will go unless a mega bid comes in but say it does would it be worth it? It would cost us millions to buy a new player of his quality and I dunno what suarez wages are like but there may be a good chance that players will be higher ?

Cheers {Ed005's Note - I would be gutted if we sold him mate but it would take in excess of £30m to get him. It would be disappointing to lose him but he nearly cost the club a lot of money through loss of sponsorship and we got a lot of bad press so I can understand why FSG wanted rid of him. If we did get a lot of money for him perhaps it wouldn't be a bad thing in the sense that it would pump up our budget and we could easily pick a top class replacement, or add two top players to our team for that. FSG are PR men, and wouldn't sell one of our best players without replacing him.}


If we were to sell suarez (REALLLLLLLY hope we dont), but if we were then i'd want non other than david villa as his replacement


I feel for all the supporters and parents of young supporters, who have already spent loads on new kits.(and names on the back) the advert for the new kits features three star players who have question marks over their future's at the club, and for all the hassle suarez has caused regarding sponsors they are still using his image as if he is still an integral part of the club, fine from a business point of view but what if they sell him, it's the supporters who already have his name on the back of the new shirt who will lose out again.


I don't believe Suarez damaged the club at all. It was only the British press who made it out to be some huge scandal. Nations abroad thought he was handled horrendously by the FA and in the Far East they couldn't be believe the bad press for the club as they knew what he said was not really a racist term. In South America they had some great cartoons in the press which would of course, never been allowed in this liberal politically correct nation we live in. {Ed002's Note - You are clearly not aware of Standard Chartered's stance or the reaction in the United States.}


How could we get a top class replacement no champions league 7th in the league get real

Liverpool fan Nick Powell signs 4 year deal at Man Utd.


Yeah he cant be a true liverpool fan then


He want's to play for a manager who has won trophies. {Ed005's Note - Don't be so silly you mindless Manc idiot. And if a manager is a sole reason to join a club then we don't want him.}


Hendo's a utd fan!


Lets be honest,what young player would sign for us,never get 1st team opportunities,i hate to say it,but he's most probs made the best choice for his career..


Good point Ed.Must be crazy want ing to play for them.Money I suppose.


Hendo is a Sunderland fan.


He is not worthy


Gutted, powell will be a brilliant signing for any club, pity we didn,t try and get the lad.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 23:40:11
siggurdson has decided to join liverpool fc,breaking news.YNWA...nick cheshunt.


Sigurdsson "Decided"

like he had better offers?


We can only attract players like him. Moreover I believe it is BD rather than Liverpool he opts to play for. Stop dreaming of players like Gaston Ramirez,etc,etc....Even young Nick Powell prefers MU to us. if we can get Adam johnson and Salomon Kalou then we should sell Charlie Adams and Downing.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 23:29:42
Great site guys do u know of any intrest in nolito from benfica thanks {Ed005's Note - There was under Dalglish and Comolli but as you know things have now changed under BR, so whether he chooses to retain the same targets is totally down to him.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 23:26:13
Now Football ‏@Now__Football: BREAKING: According to Mirror Football, Gylfi Sigurðsson WILL join Liverpool for £7m. #lfc

Hearing from a good source we have made a bid for Diego Da Silva Costa of Atletico.

Don't know much about him myself, just passing on the info.


Isnt that the guy on loan there from Wolfsburg? Bit of a fail as he's not their player, assuming Ive got the correct player.


If you are talking about Diego Ribas Da Cunha of Wolfsburg loaned to Atletico Madrid with an option to buy, then i seriously doubt it since Atletico has first option on him.

But as from July 1st, in case Atletico have not exercise their option to buy, he will be available for sale if a reasonable enough bi comes in for him.

As for the player himself, he'd be fantastic for LFC's midfield attacking play, no doubt.


The person is talking about diego costa
23, brazilian atletico got years back then sold with buy back option, used the buy back option to get him back as aguero's replacement.

With Carragher taking a less prominent role in the first team & whispers re: Skrtel moving on, a ball playing CH (perhaps 2) looks to be a high priority.

With this in mind, should BR be looking at players from his old club, would Ashley Williams be of any interest. He'll be 28 in August, so is at his peak but would not break the bank (£6-8M max.)

Otherwise, do we have any interest in Simon Kjaer, Agger's International team mate, only 23 years old. Kjaer has just completed a season long loan at Roma but his parent club (Wolfsburg) want to sell him & he has stated he'll never play for Wolfsburg again whilst Magath is Manager. I understand Roma are interested in signing him but should he continue to shine at the Euro's he may attract further interest.

If we have no interest in these 2 who do the Eds think we will be looking to bring in at CH (Or are we more likely to give Coates & Martin Kelly chances to play)

With thanks, TFG {Ed005's Note - I would prefer we concentrated on areas which are priority even if we do lose Skrtel, especially considering we have Kelly and Coates. Skrtel has had a great season but for me without Agger beside him he certainly isn't as good as he has been. There were times this year when Agger was injured and Skrtel looked exposed. I'm more glad that it is Agger not leaving. I wouldn't mind his team-mate for Denmark - it is clear that they have good chemistry together and that could be great for us but my concern would be would he be good if Agger was injured? I think if we could get a CB who is top class individually but great with Agger would be ideal.}


& your thoughts on Ashley Williams ? {Ed005's Note - Good player for Swansea, don't quite think he's good enough for Liverpool. It's good that he's performing well in the PL but coming to Liverpool with added pressure, added expectation and more in the eye can be something many players fail to deal with.}


Plus we should focus on a couple of our own lads coming through the ranks...afterall, what's the point if we never promote from youth to reserves to first team?!


Im glad someone else sees that, i feel the same as u ed005, Agger is a much much better player. He even makes his partner look better. He is the best leader of the back 4. just sad that he is injury prone.

Kaizer


Kjaer, Agger's partner for Denmark, is rubbish. Too slow for the fast paced game of premier league.


Sell Skertl for £22-25mil, bring in Kjaer for around 8mil sounds like a plan to me. Agger has an understanding with his international team mate. Cover with Kelly and Coates.

Heard Liverpool are edging closer to G.Ramirez ? Any truth eds? And any news on boudabouz or sturrige

Btw what's your opinion on a Johnson think we have a chance an do you think he will fit in? ( question too everyone) not just Eds

Thanks

Sponge Bob (: {Ed005's Note - I can't see Ramirez joining now. Think with Hazard going to Chelsea, Man City will go all out to get him now and we can't compete with them. Interest remains in Boudebouz - nothing more. He was of interest to Comolli and Dalglish - whether BR wants him remains to be seen. Nothing on Sturridge, never has been up to now. And I like Adam Johnson - I think he's a great player and he would shine with regular first-team football. Needs to lower his wage demands.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 23:11:20
ed what sort of striker are we after?pace,finisher,tall,strong etc.and who would you like if you were br.thanks DORSET RED {Ed005's Note - I think we're just after someone who can put them into the back of the net mate. I don't think he'll be looking for a target-man while Carroll is around but certainly someone who is capable of getting into good positions, someone who can finish and someome with good movement.}


That sounds like soldado if u ask me :)


Sounds like suarez...


 

 

12 Jun 2012 22:47:15
Sigurdsson is almost certainly a Liverpool player. Swansea wont be signing him though I can assure you of that. Fee will be slightly higher than what Hoffenheim agreed with them. Other signings will depend on who leaves but Sturridge is a player he wants no matter what.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 23:04:38
I HEAR aquilani is bein sold for 3 mill is it true waht a waste of money shocking


Yeah thanks Rafa. And everyone goes on about how well you invested money. £18million plus wages. Plus wages for him to play for someone else. All in all a minimum loss of £20 million. How many minutes did he play?


The waste of money was buying him in the first place...what a shocking piece of business!


Fair enough but just masch, alonso and Torres and theres over $50 mil made. There's always some which don't work out. It's not a science.

Swish


As long as we get rid of him i dont care. id let him go for free if it was up to me


Waste of Gillet and Hick's money! New owners get 3 million for nothing.

Lovely Drop


What do people not get? rafa does not set the transfer fees, or he states what we pay for players, he stated what players he would like and puts that to the money men. plus i beleive aquaman wasn,t all his own decision, it was put to him by scouts so stop blaming rafa.

rafa the gafa, top man. muchly missed.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 23:04:06
Hi eds, how many signings do u think BR will get? Has there been any previous interest in dzagoev? {Ed005's Note - I think there'll be about 4 or 5 signings.}


Wow ed 005 never seen a post from you and I've watched this site for ages...... 4 or 5 huh......any ideas as to who they might be ? Lol

ReDDaZ {Ed005's Note - I've been here for a while, have little spells where I'm incredibly busy. I would say a striker, a winger, a wide forward/winger, a right-back and a midfield. Not sure who mate - but we'll look for quality.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 22:43:48
Just read ellia has issued a come get me plea to lfc on Liverpool views could there b any truth in this eds?

YNWAmanc {Ed005's Note - I'm sure we may have interest.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 22:41:30
Brendan Rodgers has set his sight on two German players: Patrick Hermann and Lars Bender. You heard it here first.
My name is Samer from Jordan.


Cant see interest in hermann when we already have carroll to play a target man role mate


Both players are good shouts.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 22:23:28
Eds are we or have we ever been interested in moussa dembele? Personally I think the guys class and would be a great addition...
Thanks
Notts red {Ed005's Note - There is interest but doesn't seem like a strong interest.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 22:22:55
Hi eds,any chance we could get david villa or is it all just b****it,great site,please reply {Ed005's Note - Can't see FSG paying a 30-year-old upwards of 100k per week on top of a transfer fee which would be close to £30m.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 22:20:34
Hi Eds,


Have liverpool ever looked at Martin Harnik of Stuttgard. looking at his stats for last season a goal every 2 games, a 30% ratio of goals/ shots on target which is up with the likes of top European strikers and also providing 4 assists.
Please comment

{Ed005's Note - Never heard of a club called Suttgard.}


If ed is going to take the p### then he should learn to spell Stuttgart himself. {Ed005's Note - And you should learn to read. He mentioned Stuttgard and I was saying I've never heard of a club called Stuttgard. Move on.}


No, you just came up with you're own new club "Suttgard". I have no idia who they are, but to the poster, it's Stuttgart. {Ed005's Note - Before you point out me missing a "t" by accident, I think you should check your spelling.}


Hahah double fail


Play nicely children! Or is that cheldrin!


Harnik should be on the 'under consideration' list for Liverpool. If there is such a thing...

Thanks

Kam


 

 

12 Jun 2012 22:07:02
Even though soldado didn't make Spain euro team is his price tag still gonna be high? Or could we try and negotiate with Valencia?


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:59:42
Guti, Del Piero and Seedorf on a free = good, entertaining football, extra depth, massive influence on younger lads e.g teaching hendo and carroll how to play and extra ability to attract young spanish, dutch and italian players who may want to share a dressing room with their idols. it would be a lot of fun watching someone like that at anfield especially on europa league nights when the result isn't crucial {Ed005's Note - Also, big wages, offer little due to age - unlikely.}


I said about Seedorf a while back,but again it never got posted,this probably wont either,i totally agree mate !! :)


Would take Guti too !!


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:59:24
Hola Eds & Reds!

Do you think Brendan Rodgers will take his opportunity to tap up any of the Spanish squad members whilst he's at the Euros?

Coxy82 {Ed005's Note - Unlikely any of them would want to come here.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:59:22
it frustrates me so much when i see people on the site mention belhandas name... its like no one has listened to what the eds have said about him! for the last time, he wishes a move to germany if not to stay in france!

cheers, Dan.Red7.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:58:45
Ed's, As you will know we have been scouting some young foreign talent, including Simone Calvano of AC Milan. According to my sources Liverpool are keen on him and may well put in a bid this summer. From your sources, have you heard anything on this?

Marko {Ed005's Note - If your sources are reliable then no need to ask anyone else.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:57:55
hi eds,
i'm just wondering if theres any chance of getting Nilmar since Villareal got relegated, would be great with suarez next to him

( btw. great site )

Nary from Amsterdam {Ed005's Note - I don't think there is mate.}


Too bad, thanks for your reply!


Hi eds, i have read recently he is moving back to brazil cant remember which club so
Nary unfortunately not

LFCHero :)! {Ed005's Note - I personally think Nilmar is a top player but heard nothing regarding him. His movement is excellent and he is a good finisher - think he'd be brilliant at LFC.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:57:00
i have decent word that br has told the following they can go if a decent bid arrives wisdom, pacheco, wilson, spearing, maxi (as the player wants a return home), eccelston, aqua (wants italy return).


Why would they let Wisdom go? I smell bs


Thats what i hear.....why would we keep em anyway


Doubt Wisdom mate ...


Was told we were looking at lewis dunk, obviously i googled him now but id never heard of him prior to that


Oh and i probably shouldve considering he nearly scored a hatrick for us on our fa cup run :)


Wisdom is going nowhere


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:52:41
apparently carzola has been sounding out pepe about a return home however pepe wants to give rodgers the benefit of the doubt til january and will consider his future nxt summer.....just a messenger!!!


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:52:10
Daniel Sturridge has agreed to travel to anfield in a couple of weeks to have advanced talkes with the reds


Where is the source?


If anything was agreed the clubs wouldn't take weeks to sort it out. If they wanted the player it would be done asap


Koptalkcrap


Why a couple of weeks ? Lollllllll He's greedy, not a team player.....You have no valid info, just silly storys, the eds and macca are reliable, keep note dreamer lol


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:44:55
Whats the chances of signing these player

-Elia (Juventus)
-Wilfred Zaha (Crystal Place)
-Llorente (Ath. Bilboa)

And apparently Real Madrid are selling some high-profile players , could there be any chance of Xabi Alonso returning to Anfield?

Thanks.


Zaha an llorente would be good signings


Elia not gonna happen. he is a player who was highly looked at before his juventus move. and im sure some of those teams have taken notice of his lack of appearences.

llorente not a chance in hell. he is high goal scoring and could easily seal a move to a club super power like barca or city.

Zaha yeah we could. i dunno if there is interest from us but we would be an option. it also depends on who else wants him and how the options stack up


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:42:57
Any chance of Kuba from Dortmund eds? Doubt it especially since Kagawa left.

PD6 {Ed005's Note - I don't think so mate - he's very happy there as you can understand.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:39:52
Hi Ed's, I read that Spurs have serious interest in Joe Allen and that will allow Liverpool to bid for him if Rodgers want (don't know how though)... Have you heard anything Ed's? Great site! {Ed005's Note - I reckon Rodgers really wants Allen. He was excellent at Swansea and I think is an excellent young player - I don't think this Swansea embargo is contractual therefore I think we could go for a Swansea players without any problem - I think it's just a gentleman's agreement tbh.}


Appearantly from what I have read the trade agreement between Liverpool and swansea is to prevent poaching of players cheaply. If a suitable deal comes in for a swansea player then they will sell him to Liverpool, just not on the cheap.

Jolly Red


What would Allen cost? 10-12m£?


He isnt any better than what we got


 

 

12 Jun 2012 21:32:32
Hi Eds, is there any chance of us signing Jordy Clasie? Reports touting him as the Dutch answer to Xavi, maybe a prospect who could fill the void left by Xabi Alonso? Understandable that you may not be able to reply but it would be much appreciated

Scouse Ginge {Ed005's Note - If there is interest I'm sure there is a great chance. He looks like someone who fits in FSGs ilk of player and is around the right price range.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:41:16
Am I out of line or right in saying Kalou shouldnt be an LFC player? Personally I dont think he's good enough we want top players not him, same goes for Diame, though I do still want to see De Jong & Sigurdssin joining us, any news on these 2 eds? {Ed005's Note - Just what's been said down the pages mate. De Jong has gone quiet, Sigurdsson looks likely but will take time.}


Yes I think you are losing it - why would we want a 26 year old International with a winning mentality, someone who knows what it's like to win trophies, and would obviously work very hard to that aim. Lets carry on going for hopefuls/

John B {Ed005's Note - Probably because he offers nothing to the team? Can't cross, can't dribble, lacks the tecnique to take on a player, isn't creative, has no brain on the field, can't finish and works as hard as a slug.}


I think the OP is right for saying he/she doesn't want Kalou at LFC. I don't either. Very lazy player IMO.

Not good enough for Chelsea, not good enough for LFC.


Thanks for posting eds, as for John I think your losing it fella, dont know who your watching, we are liverpool, not f*****g blackpool


Exactly mate


No good enough for Chelsea?? Didn't he play in Cl final, and scored important, I believe some people are being very unrealistic about our club, we are now a mid table club, sigurdsson had 6 good months at Swansea and suddenly he's good enough for us?? He was a flop in Germany!! Remember Adam had a great year at Blackpool and is rubbish for us. Kalou may not be world class but is a good enough squad player to help us into d top 4 in my opinion

I'm just saying everyone thinks Luuk DeJong is the best thing since sliced bread but he's done nothing remember kuyt was a 20 goals and 20 assists man in the dutch league but not at us

So all the people who say no to kalou tell me who u'd like that is a realistic target for our club


Well said John b obviously this lot have better footy knowledge than
Morinho wenger Rodgers to name a few as they all have bought or have showed interest in him, bet there the same ones who slated signing Lucas Aswell


Id prefer D. Bent than Kalou and thats saying something


Kalou is going on a free and has a much better goalscoring record in the pl than any of our wide players and hes only 26 so should be playing the best football of his career


He cant of been that good enough for chelsea they've let him go :/


So Kalou isn't good enough for us - better goalscoring record than any of our other signings if you check - get real, no CL football means no Hulk, No Hazard, not even Nick bloody Powell, Adam Johnson ( vastly overrated ), Juan Mata, Marko Marin, Kagawa the list is endless of class players we can't attract - Sturridge at 15million, or Kalou for free - no brainer. Mourinho signed Kalou for a good reason. More money means they have upped their sights, well above what we can hope to get - certainly doesn't make Kalou a bad player. {Ed005's Note - Mourinho signed Kalou because he had potential - which he certainly hasn't lived up to. What does he offer? Try to answer without throwing stats for me.}


Well said 005 and to the people who want kalou.. Ok lol then lets remain a mid table side.. Its not a position lfc should ever of been in and to move forward we need better players than kalou!


I agree with Ed05 and the original poster to a certain extent although I disagree about Diame. Think he has a lot to offer. Kalou is crap though.

My main issue is people on here classing all the players outside of the top teams the same.


Totally agree with this post 100% {Ed016's Note - But Kalou isn't going to come! his Agent is desperately trying to find him a job.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:40:17
Jamie carragher has to be assistant manager or coach


Carra chould be released we have a new assistant so your clueless anyway


Agreed....but of another team


Carra should be released?? He is a liverpool legend. He deserves a role somewhere in the club whether playing or coaching!!
Lee YNWA


One thing talking a good game it's a
whole lot different when you have to put it into practise on the training field,
there's been loads who talk the talk
but can they walk the walk, by the way
what would he coach them........how
to launch the ball...........

auntie annie......


No room for sentiment, he needs to experience how things are done else where(abroad maybe) before being given a position on the non playing staff. Doesn't matter what he's done as a player.


Not assistant lower down perhaps


I'm a Liverpool fan but Carragher hasn't got a scooby, he wanted Rafa out and he wanted Hodgson in. Clueless little Englander and he will do f*** all as a manager.


I would put carragher as manager of the u16s to test him. Maybe u18s.


Just because someones a legend at the club through their playing days dont mean they can hack it at a coaching position. look at souness !


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:34:58
How are things looking with Luc Castaignos Ed? I know of interest in January but has there been anything recently?

The Rectangle {Ed005's Note - I think interest has all but gone.}


He has just moved to China, hasnt he


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:34:26
Dzagoev is out of contact in the winter, so he wouldnt cost much now ? who is interested ?


Id imagine his rating is going up at the moment. Might be best asking again in a couple of weeks.


I agree. He has 3 goals at Euros so we should sign him. Hopefully nobody else is watching Euros and we can get him on the cheap.


Real madrid were interested but when asked about them he said he wanted to play in england for chelsea..got that from his wikipedia page so it might be aload of bs...YagEraDetinu


My god some people are so desperate for us to sign players. This kid sccores 3 in 2 at the euros and fans are creaming over him. Do we remember Diouf and the world cup he had with Senagal? Evryone chill a little and wait to see what happens


Believe me with the euro's he's having he will cost lots


Im not saying hes gonna be crap cz he could turn out to be fantastic after euros but just remember that yes hes scored 3 goals in 2 but just look who they were against


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:33:16
Dear eds

Apart from Sigurdson is there anyone you know of that we have strong interest in (not just sending a scout out) but serious interest??

p.s great site and great work from all of you.


American Red {Ed005's Note - Hard to say at the moment. When Dalglish was manager there was serious interest in a few players but since he's gone hard to say whether that has changed due to BR having different ideas. Things will be clearer in the coming weeks.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:29:49
hi eds any chance of dzagoev? looks like a decent young player {Ed005's Note - No.}


Do you watch the euro's see a decent player and decide to post when he most obviously will go to a top club with champions league football!


Why not ed? tanx

majestic69 {Ed005's Note - Because I believe we'll sign Sigurdsson and will be covered in that area added to the fact that CSKA may not wish to sell mid-season and if they did, there would be clubs there with a better chance of getting him than us.}


No chance of getting him, Champions league teams will be circling - besides he's probably on a ridiculous wage already


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:26:22
Before everyone starts getting silly...

NO...We have no chance of signing Dzagoev, This kid is rated at 30m euros already and he has the option of staying where he is or going to Arsenal, Juventus, Ath Madrid, Chelsea, Inter, AC, Man United, PSG, Malaga or Barcelona.

So he will not come to us, Ever.


You are wrong he is nothing like 30m rated if he didnt have such a good tournament he would have been available for under 10m euros,


We should sign Dzagoev.


30m when his contract runs out in 6 months?

What have you been smoking?


Isnt he available on a free in december?


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:22:01
Brendan Rodgers to sign two midfielders in this transfer window.
Sigurdsson - £7m
Kalou - free


I think that this would be a good midfield and therefore would mean that lucas and gerrard and adam would have to play for their place in the team which can only be good
pato108


Sigurdsson yes but please no no no to Kalou. Not a good player at all


Kalou on a free cant moan what's all the moaning about fast and nicks a few goals still young so Brendan can mould him into his styles if don't work out fine not much lost. IMO I think he would add competition and pace to the attack which is wat weneed and he's not bad considering he hasn't played regularly for years at Chelsea just dub most of the time give the lad a chance {Ed005's Note - Not much lost? Apart from a massive signing on fee and upwards of £3m per year on wages. If we sign Kalou because he's quick we may as well get an Olimpic sprinter - because tecnique (sp) wise they offer as much as Kalou.}


Daniel sturridge is apparently to travel to anfield in next couple of weeks for talks with the reds


Like I said he's good for a few goals off the bench when teams are tiring he done it loads for chelsea. yeah wages may be quite high no transfer fee tho so still be happy to get him, if don't work out some one will still pay 7/8 million for him so get our money back regardless. If Brendan wants him he has my backing maybe the haters should stop moaning about everything like I said we ain't gona get the cavanis or labezzis!


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:21:14
heard that teh Salomon Kalou deal is very close and Rodgers is keen to make him his first signing.


If their not good enough for chelsea then they certainly not good enough for lfc


Would sooner have RAHEEM STERLING
on the bench than that MUPPET clogging
the system,if he was any good chelsea
would be keeping him, if it goes through
the fans will be on to RODGERS bigtime..

auntie annie.....


Clean yer ears then mate


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:20:07
Hi ed i want to know all these rumour coming about sturidge and kalou are true or just fake. And any news abt sigurdson. And where is rodgers right now is he at lfc or on holdays and when he return back. Thanx plz post i realy want to know answers. {Ed005's Note - I certainly hope they aren't true. Kalou offers literally nothing whilst Sturridge has no brain and can't pass a ball.}


Ed05- you say Kalou offers nothing but this season with limited starts he scored 6 goals with 1 assist, last season 12 goals 6 assists, season before 12 goals 3 assists, season before 10 goals 10 assists. I could go on. Hardly offering nothing now is it? {Ed005's Note - Stats? Well they show that Charlie Adam had a better season this year than Xabi Alonso had in many if not all his seasons at LFC. So there's how far stats get you. Kalou is awful. He can't cross, dribble, take a player on, he can't finish, he's not creative and his work-rate is poor. He offers nothing. If he's so good why are Chelsea letting him go? Why don't they even keep him as a squad player?}


Because Chelsea have money to burn - Kalou knows what it's like to win trophies - not a bad mentality to have in your squad

John B {Ed005's Note - If knowing what it is like to win trophies is a factor in us getting players now then we should bring back Djimi Traore - Salif Diao maybe? They know what it is like to win trophies. Not a bad mentality to have in the squad.}


Im not saying hes the answer to our problems but a winger who regularly scores double figures, knows the league inside out and is free is hardly someone who "offers literally nothing" {Ed005's Note - What does he offer then? Try giving me a constructive answer, rather than "he knows the league" "he's scored goals"? What has he got that would make opposition defenders scared of him or make them cautious? Nothing. I maintain, that he offers nothing. He has no tecnical (sp) ability, he isn't creative and he has no footballing brain. Can't see why we would spend upwards of 60k per week on him. If he's that good and if he offers all of this Chelsea would keep him, simple as that. Can't believe our fans would jump on player's backs every week for being poor then call for someone like Kalou to be signed.}


Your comparison of Alonso and Adam is simply childish by the way. {Ed005's Note - No it isn't. He is using stats to prove to me that Kalou is a good player when he isn't, and I am simply using an example of how stats aren't a reliable indicator of the ability of a football player using the Adam - Alonso example. Everyone knows Alonso is a diamond and Adam is a bit of rusty steel in comparison yet idiots who throw stats should look at the stats between the two of them which would make people say Adam is better than Alonso when he simply isn't. Perhaps you are abit slow or didn't read the conversation - so all in all I was just showing stats prove nothing in most cases.}


Let me get this straight you want me to give you a constructive answer about Kalou but you dont want me to talk about the fact he regularly scores double figures from the wing?? I think i'll just leave this now Ed; you clearly know better! {Ed005's Note - As I predicted, you have failed to give me a constructive answer. Move on.}


Well said ED005.......

auntie annie.....


Well said about Sturridge especially. I really don't think he's completed a pass in his life. Wouldn't work very well in tiki-taka. All he can do is shoot and lose possession. I feel like he's got a Darren Bent type future being a main striker on a mid-table side. {Ed016's Note - Sturridge rumours are B.S as are the Kalou rumours}

Apart from Sigurdsson Liverpool will not start any kind of business untill the Euro's are over. Also the Adam Johnson situation will not happen his wages are stupidly high.

There is no source or I do not no anyone in the know this is just purely what I think. Edz do you know of any actual realistic targets at the moment?

Cheers D-Mon {Ed005's Note - There are plenty of realistic targets, only problem is when they are mentioned, despite them being good players, some LFC fans blow their tops because it isn't Cavani, Llorente, Javi Martinez, Pastore etc. etc.!}


Well they need to be serious, CL seems to be the only thing of interest to the "top" players.

I think we need som quality team players to get us where we need to be and eventually that has to be top of the pile, not top 4

RedLee


Name a few of these realistic targets ed5?? tanx {Ed005's Note - They've been mentioned many a time mate - players like De Jong, Sigurdsson etc. who are perfectly good players with loads of potential and who would improve our team and squad.}


Probobly the same fans who were complaining at the start of the year about kenny. one's who cant appreciate good football.


Agree ed

IraqKop


Why are people so keen on a.johnston he has a bad attitude cant keep his place at city so in my opion is over rated and far too expensive give zaha a chance raw talent right attitude


 

 

12 Jun 2012 20:05:41
anyone know any news on harry redknapp?


Yeah! He's still ugly!


Allegedly he doesn't know that his dog has bank accounts in loads of off shore tax havens


Has a couple of dogs?


Also

Redknapp told ESPN: "No, I haven't resigned, and I have no idea why it is being suggested that I have resigned.

"This is an outrage; an absolute liberty for people to be putting around this kind of rumour on the internet. It is not true, there is not a chance I will resign. Why should I? I have a year left on my contract."


So he's going then !!


He also said Lewandowski is a triffic player and spoke about Llorente. He then walked out of the interview because he was asked about Vertonghen and, as we all know, Arry doesn't talk about other teams players.


Decent winger and a pacy option for the right hand side, but probably doesn't fit FSG's youth policy


I think he's probably too old to be a starter, but as a squad player he'd be an improvement on Adams.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 19:16:01
Players expected to arrive this summer:

Mohamed Diame - Free Transfer
Gylfi Sigurðsson - £7m
Soloman Kalou - Free Transfer

Possibles (Adam Johnson)

Players Transfer Listed:

Maxi Rodriguez
Alberto Aquilani
Jay Spearing
Daniel Pacheco

JK


Adam Johnson will not happen ! His lifestyle is an issue, As it is at citeh, no more playboys needed ! This is not my opinion ! It is from within the club


 

 

12 Jun 2012 19:29:17
Heard a rumour that we might be signing Belhanda, sounds a right person to me....

Wizards sleeve


 

 

12 Jun 2012 18:24:13
BR is looking to bring in 4 players to bolster the squad:
1) Sigurdsson
2) Soldado
3) Tello
4) Elia
Thanks Ed's
Young Red


Name the obvsious on sig, and then the three players there is rumours about over the past few days nice one mate!


No chance of Tello I live in Barcelona and the fans adore him and the talk is it's almost guaranteed he'll get a new deal


BR is not looking at tello, he will probably sign a new contract

YoungRed


A nice, brief summary of all the rumours over the last 48hours, and brilliantly written into an original rumour.


I'd consider that a successful summer - wouldnt be convinced with elia however - would much rather prefer affellay, or susaeta {Ed005's Note - I agree with that mate - I think Elia is all legs but has no final product. Another Babel in my opinion.}


That list there would be a perfect transfer window for me... Tho don't think we will get saldado


You obviously know nothing so why make up random names.


I wish... I'm going to shut my eyes now and hope I have the same dream as you did...


Nice one mate you been on talk sport


Why does everybody know brendans list of players hes going to buy where does he publish the list . i am on websites daily and i havent found these lists of players


 

 

12 Jun 2012 17:58:33
Hi Ed,
Paratici and allardyce are right now in negotiations for Elia and krasic.

Thanks MALTA.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 17:18:53
{Ed022's note - brand new Player Profile on Junior Vicosa of Gremio. You may recall that Ed002 let you all know that Liverpool were monitoring the young Brazillian around a week ago, and many of you asked to know about him etc. www.player-profiles.co.uk - includes everything you need to know on Vicosa and help you understand what type of player he is etc. Thanks all.}


Why would you even hit unbelievable, their is some armidillos about {Ed022's Note - It's always happened from day 1 mate.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 15:55:09
If we manage to get Sidurdsson, would there still be any interest in Gaston Ramirez? {Ed002's Note - You may well be over playing interest in Ramirez.}


Why does everyone seem to link us with targets from KD's time. Different manager = different style of play = different targets.

Calm down and wait and see!


I have been LFC fan all my life, but im sry to say Gaston Ramirez is way too good for us... I have tried to follow him this season and he is a absolute genious on the pitch, always playing good and his touch is just tremendous. He is bound to end up in City or Real i think....


I can dream Ed!!!!!


 

 

12 Jun 2012 15:39:38
I know he is not the most reliable source, after the Klopp saga, however Talksports Moose is stating that Steve Caulker set to be Brendan Rodgers first signing at LFC.


Doubt it he said for 8 million aswell ,he was on loan at Swansea last year so they are linking us with him its like 1+1=3


Moose is a moose!!


He's joining when Klopp signs his deal to become manager.


He's 20 and shows a lot of promise. Spurs wouldnt sell anyway!


Not unreasoanble given his contract expires in June 2013, and he wont sign new contract for Spurs.
£8m is far too high a valuation though


 

 

12 Jun 2012 15:39:16
Eds,
Are you sure that Ramirez holds talks with Man City and not with Liverpool? {Ed002's Note - As I have said previously Gaston Ramirez has been watched by Liverpool but I still remain unsure as to how strong the interest is from the club but would not be at all surprised if a push was made to sign him. He was available in January for about 15M euro plus a signing on fee - but Liverpool did not follow up on their initial enquiry. They will not now listen to offers less than 18M euros. However, Ramirez will move in the summer with interest being shown by Napoli, Wolfsburg, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, Palermo and Juventus, who have made a firm offer. Unsubstantiated rumours suggest Manchester United, Spurs, Barcelona and Real Madrid are also interested. Sevilla were interested but I understand that Ramirez has no interest in such a move. Discussions took place between Bologna and Manchester City - adding to discussions that have taken place with Juventus and Napoli.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 14:29:53
I can confirm that Sig and Johnson have had "meetings" with BR. Expect official announcement next week.

Source: LFC official.

- Rod, YNWA


Don't wanna sound like the usual bunch who instantly slaughter posts cos they don't know any info and don't want anyone else to have one either, but I've noticed the Ed's havent blown these names out of the water and I would very much like to see both of these lining up for us when I go the match next season so any chance you could shed some (doesn't have to be all) light on your source(s) for this prediction as the thought of both signin is quite an excitin one,
Cheers

Red-pasty


Lol do you no them officially, utter crap.

Scouse ben


When did the Eds blow Gylfi out then.I don't miss much on here but I have missed that.


To the second reply, at least Rod put his name to the claim! Of course he cant name his source and wouldnt expect him to. There's more credibility here than in the majority of wild claims on the site!

Could be some truth to this one, although there will be no announcements until the transfer window is open I suspect.

Hopefully we can add Honda to these 2 and our midfield would be amazing, with Suarez as the lone striker (Lucas and Gerrard holding)

Red G


So we Have started "tapping" players up!
Finally!
Cool


Absolute rubbish, most on here claim to be itk or know someone of relevance! so it really should be all over the place! but its not! way to many people on here that cry wolf!


I wonder how much free time people have to think up such rubbish.


Yh absolutely and whilst they were at it they started having "meetings " with messi, ronaldo, pato, neymar, kobe bryant and just about every other sport person linked to liverpool. Stop talking just sit down and shut up.


Ahah stop slating the guy he didnt go anon and this is a "rumour site" i think with these two we are perfectly capable to get them and would be good attacking signings so lets just wait and see and stop having a go!


SaamYOO (Just write above paragraph)


I can't understand the negativity towards this guy, someone mentioned Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar etc... These 2 players are genuinly linked with Liverpool and don't fall in the bracket of unrealistiic targets so you sit down and shut up!

Muller


Yeah its hardly like its Messi he mentioned! Either one of them would be lucky to play for Liverpool...I dont think Citys bench warmers are out of our reach! Could def be true because nobody really has a clue.


Some muppets on here slating people. What is a rumour? It's something that might be true but hasn't been proved yet. You'd swear he said ronaldo and messi are going to sign. It's only sig and Johnson. How do all you smart bucks know that they didn't meet?


Jesus! Some people on here need to calm down a bit.
It's a rumour, allegedly from an LFC official and he's put his name to it. Both players have been linked recently so it could be a legit rumour.
At least give him some time to see if any truth to it!

Sjb76


Brendan is that you?


 

 

12 Jun 2012 14:17:56
i read today that Juventus winger Eljero Elia has agreed to leave the Italian champions after making only four appearances last season. Liverpool have been strongly linked with the 25-year-old.

personal would be good to see him at Anfield


Why would he be any good for us if he's not good enough for Juva ?


Baz F


Elia only played a handful of games for Juventus this season despite being fit for the majority of the season, which means he's not good enough for LFC in my humble opinion.

Red G


I would take him in a heartbeat. i seem to remember a a certain Mr. Henry couldn't cut the mustard at Juve, wasn't bad in the PL. Berkamp at Inter another example


@ baz f. Maybe because juve won the Italian league and we finished 8. People gotta stop day dreaming we're nowhere the attraction that we once were. We need talent not bigheads.


He was good enough for Holland's national team when he was at Hamburg, though. Shows you how a move to a club like Juve can ruin your career as a footballer, and you will have to start from scratch.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 14:14:31
a deal that could happen this summer is gaston ramirez too liverpool !

aquilani plus 14 million for him

lw12


Citeh will outbid us end of-


 

 

12 Jun 2012 14:05:40
well eds . can you tell me are we looking at any young talent in the championship,league 1 and 2 and what do you see are striker line up next season? keep up the great work !

the irish red {Ed002's Note - Phillips of Blackpool was certainly being looked at.}


Ed 002, do you think Holloway could mave to Swansea, I know there was some press talk? could make a phillps move a bit more likely, also if we sign Sig could Adam go the other way? {Ed002's Note - It is possible he could but the "Phillips move" would be more dependent on extant interest from the club than what happens with the manager. I don't see Adam heading to Germany.}


Hopefully its not Kevin! LOL


Nathan redmond was linked this time last year or round that time and he plays for birmingham.

ACHILLES.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 13:57:01
Eds I know there isn't much news on incomings except interest in sigurdson. But I would like to know about players leaving :
1. Is it true that Maxi is negotiating with the Argentinian team (Newboys I suppose) ?
2. are we negotiating with Milan for the sale of Aquilani ?
3. Is there any interest in cole and spearing from any team ? {Ed002's Note - I expect Maxi will leave but don't think of "negotiating". I expect Aquilani to leave and have explained what AC Milan's position is. Cole is of interest to Lille if a deal can be agreed and to PSG. I would expect some interest from West Ham and Reading if wage demands can be met - which may be tied to the money owed to him by Liverpool.}


I think Maxis destination is Newells old boys. {Ed002's Note - It seems likely.}


What about spearing ed? cheers {Ed002's Note - Is he for sale?}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 13:52:31
David Villa will sign for Liverpool this summer, Adam will leave.


Why? injured alot, not what you would call young and huge wages


O,dear I can hardly contain myself, I am in fits of laughter


Injured a lot? The guy breaks his leg & suddenly he's Michael Owen!?

For what its worth, I'd be chuffed if we signed him for the right price. After all, he was one of the main reasons Spain are European & World Champions and is deadly in front of goal.

It won't happen though, as I can't see him leaving Spain

Rich P


Haha really?

Fair enough

Rob


The source being? Me think you are talking Bobbins!!


If only lol


 

 

12 Jun 2012 13:37:36
My brothers on holiday in Milan at the moment and he said that in the papers over there it has stories about Fabio Borini being wanted by us and it said we've made an enquiry to Parma as Roma have stated they won't be signing him but we face competition mainly from PSG, also said that Ramirez is wanted by Juventus as well as Man City


Exactly the type of player we should be going for


Roma and parma both own him :S {Ed002's Note - I would not hold your breath over Borini returning to England.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 13:03:17
Alright Ed's. I haven't really took notice of these Adam Johnson rumours, as people are posting bare s**t about it. Read earlier on bbc, that city are willing to let him go so these rumours sound a little more realistic. I know he wages are high, but do you think we'll go for him and put in a bid or?

Cheers, Tom {Ed002's Note - I would have thought that at the right price Liverpool may be interested - but I don't know whether Liverpool under Rodgers would make a move or not.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 12:36:44
Supposed intrest in Steven Caulker for about £8m, any truth eds?

JanBorman {Ed022's Note - Nope.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 12:30:16
just heard from slyspurtsnuisance that we have made a bid for siguson?
and any news on david villa {Ed022's Note - Why would there be news on David Villa? There is no news on Sig as of yet.}


Ed out of interest is their much interest in villa from clubs as at his age price wage he doesn't represent a very good deal plus he may not be the same player after that injury {Ed022's Note - There is bits of interest yes mate.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 12:14:21
Hi ed. not a question just your knowledge please.
There must be lots of players that move on and have to take pay cuts. I'm thinking of Adam Johnson, Manchester city have said 15m is he's price or he stays. So he is available. but iv read he's wages will be a problem. For 15m it must be an option for us.  thanks Murray {Ed022's Note - Johnsons wages are ridiculously high mate.}


They are hardly much higher than Downings wages? {Ed001's Note - double and some, that is quite a bit higher I would say.}


Why would johson have to take a pay cut we are a big club if you want the best you must pay .. look at adeboyer 150.000 he is going to take a cut and we can pay more than th


Sorry ed but how much dose he get. Thanks Murray {Ed022's Note - Too much mate.}


The problem with buying from City is that they are a bunch of mercanaries who went after the money! If A Johnson wants first team football which I'm pretty sure he'd get with us then maybe the poor lamb will have to survive on 40-50k a week.


They are ridiculously high, but surely the only club in the world paying this type of wage at the moment are Man City. If he does move then he HAS to take a big wage cut. It just depends on how much he is willing to take. I would love to see him at Liverpool. I dont think wages are the main issue. Simply guaranteed footie. However I cant see him joining us. He can get slightly more in wages and Champions League footie at other clubs. Arsenal for instance.


 

 

12 Jun 2012 11:42:27
Liverpool have had a bid accepted for David Villa and Tello in the region of a 35 million pound combined price. Trust me I have very good inside sources.
Thanks Ed(s) Great site
Big Red


Any more info on your sources to make this at all credible?


Would love David Villa at Liverpool, but that would rate him around 25 million mark, for a 30 year old recovering from a broken leg...cant see that myself!


Why would you come on here and spout such nonsense?and try an sell it then with "very good inside source",ridiculous fella david villa will not be moving to anfield


35mil....? are you on glue? over double what they are worth/valued at


As if we would be dumb enough to buy villa


Why would we bid 35m for an unknown and a guy with a broken leg?


Sorry mate, but that's just not believable.
You could see us bidding for Tello, but Villa's just to old.
LFC won't pay the market price for any 29 year old who's had recent major injuries. Not happening.


'You had me at Tello'. Lost me at Villa.

David Villa is too old, will cost too much, his leg is too broken and his resale value will be too low. I cant think of a player less suited to FSG's player recruitment policy, other than Clarence Seedorf and Andriy Shevchenko perhaps. Dont tell me, your source mentioned them as well?!!

Red G


LMFAO

would be happy if it did happen but we have more chance winning the lotto without a ticket me ol mukka


You do not have to be ITK to know that FSG will not be buying players of that age ?


Factor in the total wages, 50% of that 35M is already too much.
Villa is a damaged old pal, you want him for 25M? Oh well, you must be on drug. :>


 

 

12 Jun 2012 11:55:53
Ed gaston ramirez agent is in talks with a top european club.Can you shed any light on who it is cheers. MATTYLFC {Ed022's Note - Manchester City.}


Manchester city are not a top european club.Maybe a wealthy european club,but thats that.


Noooooooo

Kaizer


Would love to see it happen but personally dont think it will think we will be looking more like cheaper players like championship players for the next 5 years


Hold on! Man City are not a TOP European club. Fact! {Ed005's Note - I would say the wages they offer, and the high fees they can pay make them a candidate for any top class player deciding where to go.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 11:55:47
Its being reported today that Bologna are in negotiations with a foreign club about the sale of Ramirez, a top european club. Macca/Eds/anyone know who this club is? Us? {Ed022's Note - Manchester City, but these negotiations started over a week ago as we Eds said. If you don't believe we've been saying it then go on the Player Profiles members area and it's dated there when it was said.}


No need to get arsy ed, only asking. Havnt seen any new info about Ramirez for a while. {Ed022's Note - I wasn't getting arsey at you, it was aimed at posters who have/will give abuse regarding us Eds 'never saying this before' when it's clear we have.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 11:43:55
Hi edds, What are the chances of Gaston Ramirez signing for liverpoor this summer? I know very little about the player only what youtube shows and i like what i see could be a great player for us maybe just what we need? {Ed022's Note - I have created a player profile on Ramirez and it's over on www.player-profiles.co.uk - At the moment, Bologna have held negotiations with 3 clubs: Juventus, Napoli and most recently, Manchester City. There is interest from several other clubs including Liverpool, although at the moment he could end up anywhere to be blunt.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 11:26:45
10 days ago there were strong rumours of Rasmus Elm. Now it seems that it has gone quiet. Please tell me are we still intrested in him {Ed022's Note - Yes we are, Liverpool have been asked to keep updated on his situation and a move prior to Rodgers' appointment looked likely. However, the situation with him is a little bit different with Rodgers' appointment, as nobody knows if Rodgers' is interested in him. I do believe though that Liverpool are watching him at the moment in the Euro's.}


Watched him for Sweden and he clearly favours long balls which he is very good at but does not fit in BRs style


 

 

12 Jun 2012 11:12:25
My uncle is the manager of liverpool fc superstore and always gives me great information about lfc. he told me that brendan rodgers is still evaluating the squad and he wants to get rid of players before even thinking about who to bring in, he wants a striker,right winger, right back, joe lfc justice for the 96.....


You sure he didn't want a leftback?


How can he want a striker, rw and rb if hes not even thinking about who he wants to bring in until hes evaluated the squad and sold players. You say one thing then completly change it


If he knows what positions he is looking to get players for, why wouldn't he know who he wants?


He is evaluating his squad before he even thinks about who to bring in.....yet he already knows he wants a right winger, rightback etc...hmmm


Why does he need a right back with johnson kelly and flannagan there?


He's still evaluating the squad (who are on holiday) and he doesnt know his plans yet, apart from wanting a new striker, right winger, right back.....

Hillarious post!

And I would be quite worried if our new manager has decided to share his transfer plans and evaluation of the squad members with the guy who works in the club shop!!!

Trust me, nobody knows what he is doing yet. Not even the mighty Ed's!

Red G

PS... Keep these funny posts coming though!!


Ask your uncle has he got any cheap socks,shorts shirts


Your uncle is superstore stan??


Why would Brendan Rogers Speak to the liverpool super store manager get a grip


Utter drivel


If he wants to evaluate the squad first (this i can believe..) then how do you know what positions he wants players in? I think this is yet another ITK post with no basis in fact!


 

 

12 Jun 2012 10:18:46
Eds, what are the chances of Andre Shürrle from Bayer Leverkusen? I'd put in a sneeky offer now because I have a feeling he's going to have a very good Euro campaign {Ed002's Note - I don't know of any interest in Shurrle from Liverpool. There is no such thing as a "sneaky" offer.}


I think he won't get on for Germany


Oh shut up, you know what I meant


What about a sneeky offer?


By sneaky offer do you mean making an offer but not telling them about it? {Ed016's Note - Sneaky that.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 09:13:31
Liverpool are prepared to fight off interest from Bundesliga side Schalke for free agent Salomon Kalou, 26, who left Chelsea at the end of the season “ Metro

Red TED


Oh no! that's a mistake!


I hope not - hate players like him who think carrying a spider on the back of their head does them any good.


We've got enough mediocre players as it is. If he was good enough the Chav's would keep him !


Sorry - isn't the purpose of this site to post rumours that aren't in the standard media outlets (i.e. BBC website)? The EDs do a fantastic job & they deserve more than people just copy & pasting stuff from elsewhere, unless the person doing this wants to add some additional commentary.

Rich P


Fight off Schalke ?
Lol. They can gladly have him.
The Real KB


Guy's scored 70 odd goals in 200 games, is 25 and on a free. First sensible piece of business we'd do in ages. I mean were gonna sell Aqualani for 3 million when we bought him for 20 million....Kalou would be a good squad player.


Actually Kalou will be turned 27 before our season starts not 25.


Why !!


 

 

12 Jun 2012 09:01:42
Looks as though todays recycled rumour will be Elia, or are we actually looking at him again?

Anfield Andy {Ed002's Note - Elia looked certain to move to Valencia a year ago with Liverpool and others considering the player too expensive. He decided to stay in Hamburg and then took the option of a move to Juventus over Newcastle - but it has not really worked out and Juve were willing for him to make a move on loan in January with, I expect, an option to buy. Everton, Hertha Berlin and Newcastle had apparently shown interest and his representatives were looking to place him in a northern European side where he would get a regular start but nothing came of it. He will be available this summer but the only firm interest right now is from Benfica and Genk.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 08:26:27
Hi Eds, just wondered if you thought Rasmus Elm would still be targeted if Sigurdsson was purchased? Just trying to get an idea of what the club is thinking this summer. Thanks for your time.

Red89 {Ed002's Note - I doubt that he would.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 08:05:56
Hey Ed's, in relation to my previous post, has there been any attention by Liverpool towards Wijnaldum and Douglas Costa in the past? Not saying are we interested but have we researched both and had reports on them? Thanks mate keep up the good work! YNWA
JS {Ed002's Note - Manchester United, Chelsea, Rubin Kazan, Napoli, Arsenal, Manchester City and no doubt many others have been interested in Douglas Costa in the past and Cesar Bottega has hawked him around Italy and and Portugal as well. Spurs, Inter Milan, Newcastle and Benfica have shown recent interest in Wijnaldum following recent talk of interest from Sevilla (that was no doubt rejected out of hand). PSV will not be keen to sell and he could be very expensive but Fiorentina may test them with a bid.}


 

 

12 Jun 2012 02:20:58
Just heard that Soldado has agreed to join Spurs and will play a friendly in pre season as part of the deal.


As opposed to players signing for teams and then not playing in friendlies?


Kind of like when Mata signed for Liverpool last season and played half the match for Valencia and half for us??


Is that just like when we played Valencia in a friendly last year and Mata played and was part of the deal when he was coming to Liverpool?? The things you people make up!! Doh!


Your hearing cannot be great Mate ...


Where did you hear it? Come on, spill the beans

Hey eds/macca, there is a picture of Stevie G chatting to Benzema after the match today on the LFC website and i was wondering if there is anything to it or am i just dreaming and looking too much into it?....

Thanks
Kindest Regards {Ed005's Note - You are looking too much into it.}


He just played against France.. he talked to Nasri & Ribery too.. are we getting them?


You gotta be joking they played against eachother he talked to every player on the team are we signing the france national team? probally just said "good game"

Jpow_LFC


He was probably just saying 'well played' and thats it, not really a conversation


Probably looking too far into that one mate, i'd say Stevie has talked to lots of footballers before...


There's a picture of him talking with Lebron James on Liverpool's website too, maybe he's considering changing sports and joining?!


Maybe Stevie is off to Real?


Oh my word Lar! You are mad... He is shaking his hand at the end of the game .. Go back to sleep and dream we might end up bein linked with Ibrahimivic :)))))

Redthroughandthrough


I hope he's not speaking with Lescott!


Stevie is off to Real in the summer, Benzema was welcoming Stevie to Madrid u person

Who do you expect to arrive at Anfield this transfer season EDs? Personally I think Sigurdsson, Diame and I'd like to think a striker, I'd love De Jong but I think there may be a more realistic signing...
What do you think?

Regards,

- S J Carson MA. {Ed005's Note - Impossible to say. I would say Sigurdsson is the one im fairly confident we'll get. Other than that, no-one knows - we have players in mind from previous scouting but whether BR goes with that or not is up to him.}


De Jong is very realistic, if we want him we'll get him. Simple.

Ed when is Sigurdsson going to be finalised?
Also who is rumoured to be leaving anfield this summer?

FinbarrW5
{Ed005's Note - As far as I'm concerned a bid hasn't even gone in for the player let alone contract talks or a deal being close to completion. I would expect a bid very soon though.}

Douglas moving on a free made his interest in a move to the epl clear in a press conference. When asked about teams he liked he stated one with a rich history had a very tempting offer for him. He also stated he hoped he would be wearing red next season! It's either us or Man Utd!


Or Cardiff? Haha


Maybe Stoke, Sunderland


Arsenal as well or even QPR away your overlooking this mate


Rich history ? cardiff stoke sunderland and qpr i dont think so!


I saw that too! Swear he also said that this team are on the up, and big things are expected next season!
