Im away on holiday near Almeria.
I've just been sat in a bar with a technical scout for the plastics.
He said he is out working for the transfer window, as were only an hour from Almeria I advised him to leave Suso alone. His reaction was slightly concerning.

Judging by the fact it was 10 o'clock at night and he still had his Chelsea Pin badge in his suit, and the fact he talked like working for Chelsea was being the new messiah - I suspect he was talking rubbish.

But I for one would be most concerned if Suso was to be anywhere other than our first team next season.

Does anyone have any idea of our plan for him?

Wats his reaction? Let me guess. like 'who's suso?'

Agree1 Disagree0

His reaction was one of surprise that I knew of Suso.
Just to confirm I'm not reporting that he is going to Chelsea, more that I'm asking where we think Suso will Play next season.
My opinion - he should
Be pushing Coutinho for a starting spot.

Agree0 Disagree2

It could be sevilla or granada mate .
Chelsea are not after Suso .
Plus Suso has less chance of getting into the Chelsea team than he does at Liverpool.

Agree1 Disagree0

My thoughts exactly Jones mate.
I very much doubt he would be in their radar - as I say for me he should be back in our first team.

Agree0 Disagree0

Eds I know that today Tello has supposedly said he is staying Barca, however many sites still say that we are favourites to sign him this January? He is odds on with 1/2 to join also.

I know betting odds are nothing to go on but would you confidently say that he is not going anywhere this Jan? What's your take in it please?

Believable3 Unbelievable13

{Ed001's Note - as I keep saying, he is likely to stay put for now.}

From the looks of it (although I can't vouch for the authenticity), that would be to demolish the houses behind Anfield Road.

Timeframe wise, that's a reasonible period in which to get the work done.

I would expect if all goes to plan, we may have a new main stand for 2015/2016.

Agree1 Disagree1

My dad sold his house 2 yrs ago. He lived on the corner of Anfield Rd and Lothair Rd. The club are going to build a new stand behind the main stand this will become the new Kop. They will rotate the pitch 90 degrees, which will allow for the kop and Anfield Rd to be extended.

The salah deal is still on, we've agreed a 5 year deal with him but are yet to agree a deal with Basel, they want close to 16m, Rodgers will be figuring out today with the owners as to weather they pay that much on one player, if yes he will be our only signing and news should brake over next week.

Believable94 Unbelievable89

News should brake of the next week, why should we expect it to slow down? ;)

Maybe we should expect the news to break over the next week if your rumour is correct

Why do we only have 16 million? We need to buy and buy wisely or we will end up 5/6/7th in the league.now is the time to back br. nothing going on with the ground so splash the Cash for champions league.

Agree2 Disagree3

Why do we only have £16 million? Because we've blown money on the likes of Borini, Iago Aspas, Luis Alberto, and others like them. Who knows if we even have £16 million without selling and you suggest the magical "Splash the cash" without telling us where that cash is going to come from. Of course we could always splash out cash we don't have and end up like Leeds United.

Agree1 Disagree2

Luis alberto will come good yet, don't you worry ^^

Agree8 Disagree2

I really hope that Alberto, Aspas, and Borini all come good but we've spent the thick end of £25 million on the 3 of them and they aren't playing for us at a time when the squad is thin. I'd sooner we'd spent the £25 million one top class player. Remember the Diao, Diouf, and Cheyrou fiasco when we could have bought Damien Duff for less than those 3 duffers!

Agree0 Disagree0

Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

We could have signed many players over the years instead of ones we did, as could pretty much any team. i'm sure Manchester United fans regret some of their duffers as well.

Borini is young, and has a full season of Premier League experience now, Aspas is young as well, Alberto will come good, when given the opportunity.

Remember as well, no european football this year, so no matches to use the likes of aspas, borini in to give them experience. If we had been in the Europa league i'm sure all of those players will have had playing time.

Agree3 Disagree1

Er excuse me but Europa League or not we wouldn't be using Borini since we sent him out on loan and I doubt with Europa football whether he'd have stayed with us. As I posted I really hope those 3 do come good but I have serious doubts. Yes every team signs substandard players but I could carry on and add Downing and Carroll and quite a few more to the list. Quality not quantity is what we need

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree that Alberto and borini will come good but the one I'm not sure how he will pan out is Aspas. He doesn't seem physically ready for the premier league but time will tell, a loan would be great for him but we are lacking in cover anyway and he's 25-26 so he's not that young and should be coming in to his prime in the next year or 2.

Agree1 Disagree0

18 Jan 2014 14:35:49
Your right the Salah deal is still on as I got told the same from a good source. Don't know why anyone would have serious doubts about those three, there young and learning as our squad is young. Borini will become top class and play international definitely!

Agree0 Disagree0

Eds is there any substance in the rumours linking us with Antonio Candreva?

Believable6 Unbelievable21

{Ed002's Note - I would not hold your breath.}

17 Jan 2014 18:38:49
Surely there must be some substance to it.

This smells of Coates gate, Ed02

Agree0 Disagree0

17 Jan 2014 12:33:26
Hi ed's, Corriere della Sera are linking ‪#‎LFC‬ with Antonio Candreva. Fee being reported is £9m. I shouldn't hold my breath, eh? :*

Believable15 Unbelievable29

Would love to see he signing for Liverpool.

Agree1 Disagree0

Arnold Mvuemba's agent has claimed Liverpools chairman has asked of his availability. Is this jus another case of an agent trying to stir up interest in a player for other clubs to get involved or get his club to negotiate a contract? Or could it be genuine? I can never tell when agents are involved.

Bertrand signs for villa on loan. Another one missed eds ;-)

Believable12 Unbelievable13

{Ed002's Note - Liverpool enquired as to his availability but took it no further. He will be available for sale in the summer still.}

I really don't think he is a player we need.

Agree2 Disagree1

To slow again lucky if we get anyone window shopping for more underated playes asuall wats new there

Agree1 Disagree9

Ed 002 are you aware of interest in any other Left Back's bar Bertrand of course?

Efforts are appreciated!

Agree3 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I suspect it will be more of a question for the summer than now. The club is well stocked at this time and there are other priorities.}

Thank god

Agree2 Disagree0

"Another one missed"! Every player that joins another club and somebody posts we've missed out. If Bertrand's that good why has he been loaned out? I've watched him and he hasn't impressed me as a star. Remember Lewis Holtby? We had guys on here having fits that we didn't sign him "A future star" but let Spurs have him. He's a hard working squad player and nothing more who may very well be release this window. Another diamond we missed out on?

Agree6 Disagree3

Iago aspas to join wba and we will bring another striker in from la liga, not sure who.

Believable13 Unbelievable83

It would be a good move for aspas and us as he would get playing time in the prem and to work with a Spanish coach might be a good fit.

Telegraph saying we are in for Luke Shaw lazy journalism again as I can't competing with the fees quoted but if Chelsea was to get him would Ryan Bertrand be made available.I'm sure he fits our requirements.

I would be happy with him for around 3/4 million.

Believable6 Unbelievable33

{Ed002's Note - Bertrand is available.}

Bertrand has joined Aston Villa on loan

Agree4 Disagree1

Will be available in the summer though.

Agree1 Disagree0

Eds if we were to make champions league could we have a chance of landing a gungudan or a draxler? Or would we still b financially unable

Believable18 Unbelievable20

{Ed002's Note - Neither player will be joining Liverpool.}

16 Jan 2014 23:57:19
Eds, are you expecting at least 1 signing in January?

Believable27 Unbelievable6

{Ed001's Note - hoping would be a better way of putting it.}

Very risky not signing anyone if we don't make champions league were screwed

Agree3 Disagree0

A while ago we were linked with Zambrano, according to a couple of reports I've read he is refusing to sign a new deal with Frankfurt as his current one expires this summer. I understand that any CB signings might have to wait until summer unless someone is sold but has there been any interest from us recently?
