Hi Eds

This hasn't been in the media but I wanted to know if Liverpool are looking at Shawcross? Good young English centre back who I personally would be a good long term replacement for Carra. Surely he must want out if Stoke with the season they've had! {Ed001's Note - no, he is just a thug.}

Believable2 Unbelievable36

Ed1 would you haver any preference on a CB we could sign?thanks

majestic69 {Ed001's Note - only one I have seen, who we could sign, that I have liked the look of this season, is the Ajax lad, who also plays right back, Alderweireld.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Well u got one out of three right, he is english, shawcross reminds me of wimbledon cb twenty years ago and that says it all for pullis tactics, I rather watch soaps then them and I can not stand soaps.

hey, ed 02.
posting after a while. How are you doing mate?
got a question for you.
do you see alonso moving to chelsea as recent reports have suggested? I would be disappointed to be honest with such a move.
- RED INDIAN {Ed002's Note - I know nothing of Alonso moving to Chelsea.}

Believable2 Unbelievable14

I thought he said he'd leave Madrid is Mourinho didn't (i. e. they'd fallen out) so why would he go to Chelsea with him as the reports suggest?

Agree0 Disagree0

Lazy journalism again I expect and couldn't see it happening myself, especially with how Xabi feels about us!

Agree0 Disagree0

Sell shelvey spearing Carroll Pacheco Coates maybe raise between 25 -30million in player sales plus the reported 30 million given to Rodgers. Winger, 2 defenders a defensive midfielder and striker would be my choice

Eds. It seems that most posts that state will sign c. erickson from ajax but all the eds seem convinced he won't is this purely down to lack of European football next season, suerez came to club with only Europa league action Gerrard has remained at club despite no champions league football, sure there's more to joining a big club other then European footie. ynwa {Ed002's Note - AC Milan, Liverpool, Roma and Spurs remain interested in Eriksen but I would personally not rule out Dortmund, PSG, Arsenal, Manchester City (although he has already rejected both Manchester City and Chelsea) or other previously interested clubs regaining interest in him. Back in July 2012 the Milan Press Office were convinced of interest from Manchester United and they let it be known that they expected a bid to be made by for Eriksen by them, although it came to nothing. The player remains adament that he will stay in Amsterdam until the end of next season before moving to Spain but would likely jump at the chance of a move to Real Madrid or Barcelona if the opportunity arises. However, Ajax will not let him run down his contract so a move beckons this summer. The player will see out the rest of the season at Ajax and see if he can attract attention from Spain, or perhaps Italy, whilst now himself courting both PSG and Manchester City as interest from Spain has not arisen. Whilst all of these clubs continue to watch the player, no one has yet come forward with a bid but I would suspect if Manchester City were to make a bid then they would be well placed to complete the transfer.}

Believable0 Unbelievable7

Personally I would stay clear of this lad his heart is elsewhere so I'd rather pay money for a player that wants to come and fight and try to achieve things with Liverpool not just get a big pay day and join a already successful team.

Agree0 Disagree0

I don't think he is anywhere near as good as is being made out. We should look elsewhere for better value and commitment to the club like the other poster said.

Hi eds, wondering if you have any news of what may happen to Sam Byram this summer? A mate of mine at Uni is a Leeds season ticket holder and he's convinced that we are interested in signing him this summer. {Ed002's Note - Everton certainly has an interest.}

Believable2 Unbelievable5

Good player. Leeds are really in a terrible place right now, still selling their better players. Can't see it getting better for them any time soon.

Hello Eds,
have Liverpool shown any interest in any strikers?
James Pearce from the echo (extremely relaible) says that Rodgers is looking to sign atleast 2 CB's and 1 striker in the summer.

Although I would like to see a RW and a combative midfielder too. {Ed002's Note - If he said 2 centre backs and one forward it would make more sense. There is clearly a need for a wide player and Liverpool have looked to several since January. Much else will depend on who leaves.}

Believable8 Unbelievable5

Which wide players have we looked at since January? Thanks

Agree0 Disagree0

Ben Arfa or Ince right? Both pretty underwhelming.

Hey eds, saw a link with Ginter from Freiburg? He is very high rated as young defenders go, any legs to the rumour? Both Ilori and Ginter seem like good options to replace Coates, leaving only the conundrum of who our senior centre back will be!

Drigan {Ed002's Note - Unlikely there will be a move to Liverpool this summer.}

Believable3 Unbelievable5

Ed do you expect him to move somewhere else or remove at his current club? {Ed002's Note - They would like him to stay.}

Liverpool will make an offer for Wilfried Bony (vitesse) and Christian Eriksen (Ajax) for the summer transfer window

Liverpool are working on deals to sign christian erkisen and james mcarthy. alex pearce and sporting lisbon defender tiago llori. a more experienced defender capable of slotting in alongside daniel agger will also arrive.

No they are not!

ed's? is it correct that Loic Remy is available for £5m? well worth a punt at that price. {Ed002's Note - Putting aside the amount, Remy will be available at a low fee this summer.}

Believable19 Unbelievable6

I read somewhere that his price is set at the 8m that qpr paid for him.

McB

Agree0 Disagree0

Quality striker with pace. For 5mil we can't go wrong.

Brad

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree £5M for Remy is very good, he can play across the front 3 so would be an excellent signing although there will be stiff Competition from Arsenal mainly who can offer CL football

Agree0 Disagree0

02 May 2013 16:49:59
Fair enough Arsenal can offer CL BUT let's not forget that he signed for QPR who couldn't offer anything apart from high wages. He will go to whoever offers him the most wages. Watch this space.

Agree0 Disagree0

Do we really want money grabber in team

Agree0 Disagree0

He would b quality for us but can't see him signing if we keep all 3strikers whereas the rumours are arsenal will offload at least 1 and need to improve squad so if they cum in I think he will go there :- (

Hi Eds,
With our documented interest in Eriksen, where would that leave Coutinho and Henderson if Eriksen arrived in the summer?

In my opinion, Coutinho is doing a great job. Gerrard is still a guaranteed first team choice and Hendo is a great box to box runner.

if Eriksen did arrive, will we be looking to offload anyone?

Thankyou in advance. {Ed002's Note - I think it unlikely that Eriksen will be arriving in the summer but it would be adding depth rather than impacting other players.}

Believable12 Unbelievable3

You need to start thinking about squad rather than first 11. besides the fact you can cope with injuries and lots of games, the competion for places itself drives the players to improve and focus every game.
Look at downing with Assaidi and Courthinio.

Agree0 Disagree0

But we are 7th in the table, does that give you a better insight?

Agree0 Disagree0

Well if you put Eriksen in place of improving Hendo the team will become better automaticaly.
Eriksen has world class potential like Coutinho.

Hai Ed. Hope things are fine with you.
I don't wanna post anything here.
Just wanna ask you sometihng

Gundogan. what's the situation with this player?
any clubs interested?. I have watched him play and he looks top top quality.
excellent control, great attributes to become one of the best players around
Any clubs apart from Liverpool have shown in interest?
and what's you personal opinion on this player?

thanks and regards
harry {Ed002's Note - Liverpool have not shown any interest in him. It looked like Gundogan would be sold in the summer and there is interest from Rubin Kazan and Manchester City. However, with Goetze going a season before expected, Dortmund will look to keep the player. It has been suggested that Manchester United might try and strike a deal for the player this summer that is not activated until next summer - that seems unlikely to me.}

Are Liverpool interested in Alex McCarthy? GK from Reading
