Hi Eds

Slow but exciting start to the season!

What are your thoughts on Dele Alli? At 18 years old, he seems a great prospect. 6ft2, scoring 1 in 4 games (pretty impressive for a CM in the championship), English and a Liverpool fan. Do you see us making an effort to bring him in as a potential replacement for Lucas (and long term maybe for Gerrard) either in January or summer? Or will his price have rocketed now he has signed a new contract?

Cheers
Paul

Morning Eds, Ed001 if you are around, I know it is very early days yet, and that the last transfer window just closed, however, I was just wondering, do you know of any players that LFC would/may like to bring in in January Or perhaps go back for players that LFC couldn't get over the summer for whatever reason? (of course money permitting).

Also, could a new goal keeping coach be brought in, the current one seems to have not done to well with Mignolet. As I see it, If BR is being ruthless, so to speak, with players, shipping them out completely or on loan, why not with coaches as well.

{Ed001's Note - I don't know what the January plans are yet, I doubt anyone at the club does until a fair bit nearer the time. As far as I am aware, there are no plans in place to replace Achterberg.}

Given the amount we brought in during the summer window, I'd expect our signings will depend on who leaves the club. Even then, I'm sure it would be a good idea to not add any more faces until the summer.

Hi Eds,

Been following your site religiously since 2011, but posting for the first time in a really long time!

My question to Ed is that, have we targeted Sven Bender in the Jan transfer window? Or his brother Lars for that matter, though I think Sven is the more accomplished player, and so will be tougher to lure him?

{Ed001's Note - I know we have had both scouted, last season we were looking closely at them, but I am told we signed Can instead. Whether the season up until January will change the thinking on that or not, only time will tell.}

Ed, do you prefer Lars or Sven? Personally I think Lars offers a Lil more than Sven.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - not sure mate, not seen enough of Lars to really judge him.}

Lars is the better player of the two. He can play box to box or as a CDM both roles to perfection. Sven on the other hand is a CDM strictly and a bit injury prone. IMO I would still try to sign Lars to replace Stevie G as Can is more of a box to box midfielder to challenge Hendo and Allen for the CM spots. Play Lars as a CDM.

Agree1 Disagree0

Like Indian Buzzer said, Lars is better than his brother Sven (who's not a bad player at all). The thing is that Lars is more of a Box to Box and I think that we need a more defensive-minded midfielder, since BR doesn't fancy Lucas, so If I were to choose one, I would prefer Sven.

What's going on with diarra? QPR were due to sign on Arry day but it fell through? Wud we look at him?

Tello looking good for Porto, would we still be interested? My view is that's an area we are over subscribed in but he is quality

{Ed002's Note - No - life has moved on and Liverpool have put their money elsewhere.}
