Edd002 ben smith has came out and said there will "be plenty £ available " for klopp in January. Whether that's true or not mate, I'm assuming it will be borrowed money and further debt if we are not selling to buy. Huge misconception for a lot of fans not on this site that hennry can keep cutting checks from thin air with no consequences.

{Ed002's Note - I have no idea who "Ben Smith" is Al, but as I have repeatedly said that there will be money made available for players at the right price. You need to find out what he means by "plenty". If any significant amount is to be used it will obviously need to be borrowed and it will obviously make the FFP situation worse without selling.}

Edd002 he's a bbc football journalist. Cheers for the reply on that.

Over the years Ben Smith has relentlessly proven that he knows about as much about what goes on at LFC HQ as I do.

Hi Eds. I've searched Rossiter, only recent ones 17/12 mention him but none about this contract situation.

Any news? Are the rumours true, talks stalled and Spurs, City are interested in signing him?

Is he available to talk to teams inJan with a fee set by tribunal?

Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - Rossiter has not yet agreed a new contract. I don't know the reasons why but as I have alluded to before seeing the club move for youngsters from abroad and elsewhere will always disrupt the youngsters already at the club. I am sure he will be craving an opportunity but will be looking at the speculation and wondering what his options are. As with any well thought of youngster there will be other EPL sides keeping a watching brief. In January he can talk to non EPL sides if he is still to sign a new deal. He won't be able to talk to English or Welsh sides until the summer. I would hope this is one that Liverpool do try to hang on to.}

Spot on Ed, he looks like he'll be a very good player before too long, but one imagines he will want game time.

What about Flanagans contract, doesn't that run out at the end of the season too?

Agree0 Disagree1

{Ed002's Note - It does. Flanagan is different because of the injuries.}

Rumours about Chelsea in for benteke. I don't believe it unless eds say so. But I'm not sure yet. With Ings still out that only leaves us origi and firmino and strurridge when fit. It would be good for our style, but he does offer something different. I'd sell in the summer if we got a good offer, but now, I'm not sure.

Given that Ben has not really established a place in a Klopp side yet, Origi and Firmino seem to be preferred options in Studge's absence, I reckon an offer close to or above what we paid will be enough to take him. I would expect Klopp to invest some of that in another forward who is more suited to our game, and save the rest until summer or indeed put it towards subotic. I expect that if Ben does go (sold not loan) he will definitely buy to replace.

Any truth in this rumour that Chelsea might want Benteke in January?
