Eds, do you know if there's been any updates in the situation regarding Xherdan Shaqiri?

Thanks for all your hard work, great site.

Believable6 Unbelievable3

{Ed002's Note - Shaqiri is one of the players Bayern are looking to sell and they are seriously pissed with him right now. Fiorentina have a declared interest with Napoli and Juventus having made tentative enquiries. Bayern are taking an interest in Pogba and are looking to include Shaqiri in a deal.}

Are you able to tell us why Bayern are so pissed at him Ed02?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - He talks rather too openly to the press and that is something clubs don't like at all.}

Cheers lads

Believable4 Unbelievable16

{Ed002's Note - He will go to Manchester United if the can agree a fee with Southampton.}

Are Chelsea not interested now ed

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - How many times do I need to say that Chelsea will not pay what Southampton are asking and are talking to someone else.}

Hi Eds
Max Meyer. any interest in the Schalke Midfielder?
Sorry if its been done before.
Looks a really promising attacking player in the current LFC mould.

Believable3 Unbelievable6

{Ed002's Note - Max Meyer of Schalke has attracted a lot of attention but a move to England will not happen until he has a walk-in opportunity at first team level.}

Brilliant player and would love to have him.

Agree0 Disagree0

Believable8 Unbelievable3

eds can you tell me information about Yarmolenko situation, will he move in the summer? are we interested? anyone else interested in him?

Believable1 Unbelievable7

{Ed002's Note - Dynamo Kyiv said one formal bid was actually made for Yarmolenko last summer and that was a €27.6M bid from Zenit that was rejected. Other clubs apparently enquired and asked what sort of fee would be acceptable. The answer to all that asked was that they would consider offers above €40M. The figure that we understand Liverpool had in mind was €12M. LFC made no formal bid, and neither did Fiorentina who made a similar enquiry. AC Milan had, apparently, already been put off by the asking price. At this time only Bayer Leverkusen and Manchester City are showing any interest at all.}

Hi Eds, certain newspapers reporting that the two main targets for the summer will be Konoplyanka and Mkhitaryan, obviously there's going to be a wide pool of targets but these two fall into the wide attacker and central player that have been highlighted on here. Is this just recycled news or do you think there is a possibility we may be back in for Mkhitaryan who from my understanding has been a key player for Dortmund this season and surely they will want to hold onto him

Believable7 Unbelievable12

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

I thought that might be the case, hopefully if Rakitic isn't overpriced he will be the central player pursued

Agree0 Disagree0

So, we should be holding our breaths over Kono, eh :>

Agree1 Disagree0

Eds do you think we still maintain an interest in Konoplyanka? Or is our primary focus for a winger elsewere?

Agree0 Disagree1

{Ed001's Note - we still have interest in him, whether or not it will be enough to sign him is a different matter.}

I'd love yer man mkhtaryan.
However unlikely I'd love it if we got him.

Agree0 Disagree0

I don't really rate MK he misses a lot of chances, I'm happy we never signed him

Agree1 Disagree0

Do we have interest in tadic? I think you mentioned him before ed

Believable1 Unbelievable4

{Ed002's Note - Roma, Dortmund, Barcelona, Everton and Schalke showed interest in Dusan Tadic in the past. His agent says Liverpool have rekindled their interest from last summer and Galatasaray remain interested. I don't know if it will go anywhere.}

23 Apr 2014 11:24:09
Aspas likely to be put up for sale Eds?

What replacement would we be most interested in?

Drmic? Alcácer? Ings?

Believable12 Unbelievable3

{Ed002's Note - I think there is a good chance that Aspas will move on. Before replacing him the club would look to Borini I would think.}

Ed, if Sunderland stay up, could you see Borini staying on loan for another year, or would he rather come back here for maybe bench work and odd cup games?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Another year on loan makes no real sense. He wants to return to Liverpool and they will no doubt assess him in the summer and keep him or sell him on.}

Borini deserves a chance just for scoring the winner at chelsea

Agree2 Disagree0

Is Guillermo Ochoa a possibility for Liverpool Eds?

Believable3 Unbelievable3

{Ed001's Note - not that I am aware of, I was under the impression he had already sorted out a move to another French side for the summer. I might have got it wrong, but I seem to remember being told a deal was close.}

23 Apr 2014 10:42:02
Ed001 if your around while I understand that we don't get a transfer budget per say reports say we will have 60 million to spend is this figure anywhere near right from your understanding??? I no you don't wish to talk about figures so a short and sweet answer would be grate cheers

Believable8 Unbelievable1

{Ed001's Note - the reports are just pie in the sky nonsense. Ayre himself has said the same thing I keep saying, we do not have a set budget, we decide each deal individually. There is no 60m, 50m, 150m or 10m limit on spending. It comes down to a case being made for each player on an individual basis. If the right player became available at the right price, then there is a possibility of more being spent. Equally there is every chance we will spend a lot less as the prices won't be within our valuation of the players we want.}

It would be stupid to tell the world how much we had to spend, so glad Ed you have confirmed what I have thought all along. It's just journos taking a guess these days!

Agree1 Disagree0

Apparently its 40 million now, don't believe the papers

Agree1 Disagree1

I no there is no budget but sure there is a rough idea they expect they will need but I personally can see another summer of hard ball for Liverpool fans beaware and chill

Agree0 Disagree0
