ed001.002 or 025 i know you have done sharkpod and said a few weeks ago who we should sign but who do you now think the club will sign and get rid off and you are the ever LFC guardian you all the best.

{Ed002's Note - I don't think anything has really changed in terms of the club wanting to sell the likes of Moreno, Sakho, Markovic, etc.. Right now they are eached priced out of a move. If Coutinho were to move to Barcelona then they could look to adding from the Barcelona surplus list and they could look again to the likes of Vazquez. Oxlade-Chamberlain may well remain a target.}

Oh joy.

Why would we look to barcas "surplus" list for our star player? What an awful mentality.

Em, Barcelona have released many players on their surplus list in the last few years. Sanchez, Pedro and zlat are 3 off the top of my head that were 'surplus'. It's not like It's QPR offering up their reserves and obviously if klopp doesn't want any he won't take any. So what's the issue? Obviously the best thing would be not to sell.

You can't really replace couts so any exchange is unlikely to be a direct replacement, whoever were to come in would mean a slight change in how klopp wants to play and adapt to different players' strengths.

Agree1 Disagree3

As ed25 has said we already have the perfect replacement if coutinho does leave. firminho would shine in his natural role. You all need to calm down a few decibels bigger and better have left over the years.

Agree2 Disagree3

30 Jul 2017 09:49:48
That's the point Indian, there no player Barcelona can offer us to replace him but that doesn't mean 'Someone they would allow to leave wouldn't improve us. If klopp thinks they could and accepts an exchange who am I to say he's wrong!

Ed would you care to shed some light on who Barcelona may view as tradeable if they can get Coutinho? Read somewhere Rakitic may be available too.

Agree3 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Aleix Vidal (RB), Andre Gomes (M), Ivan Rakitic (M), Paco Alcacer (S), Arda Turan (LW), Lucas Digne (LB), Denis Suarez (M), Javier Mascherano (M/CB).}

Thanks mate - brilliant.

All decent players, but I'd still keep coutinho even if they offered the lot of them, coutinho is yet to Hit his peak years.

Agree5 Disagree2

Ed002, do you think the club would be more inclined in taking a deal including players? From the list given Denis Suarez and Andre Gomes both had good seasons before joining Barcelona at Villarreal and Valencia.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I really don't know but unless a club is actually interested in a player it makes little sense to take them.}

30 Jul 2017 11:00:52
Rakitic would be the only one worht considering and even then I'd have to say, if it meant Coutinho leaving, a massive no thank you. Not inspiring that we may look to another teams cast-offs to be honest.

Agree1 Disagree3

Aleix Vidal (RB) - Not particularly that good, not an upgrade on Clyne.
Andre Gomes (M) - Hasn't set the world alight.
Ivan Rakitic (M) - Past it, best days are long gone.
Paco Alcacer (S) - Not particularly good, too lightweight for the English game.
Arda Turan (LW) - Past it, best days are long gone.
Lucas Digne (LB) - Already signed a left back.
Denis Suarez (M) - Lightweight, not an upgrade on Coutinho, never been that fussed about the hype, is he any better than Suso who also failed?
Javier Mascherano (M/ DF) - Past it.

In short there's no one on that list I'd want.

Agree3 Disagree1

If we had £100m burning a hole in our pocket, would we target any of those players?
I doubt it. That's the acid test in player exchanges.

Hi eds,
Thanks for the shift you put in over the transfer window, I know some of us may come across as a pain lol I've tried the search function but no specific joy, was wondering would we start looking at Renato Sanches from Bayern as he's up for sale at nearly half the price of Kieta and he's only 19. Would be too much of a risk due to him not being able to settle in a different league/ country?

Many thanks

Henlow red.

{Ed002's Note - Liverpool has zero interest in Sanches and he is not for sale but available for a loan (due to certain complexities).}

29 Jul 2017 14:30:37
I have seen rumours linking us with striker Max Kruse over the last few weeks. Surely rubbish with the amount of strikers currently at our disposal?

Not needed, looking at Solanke.
