What's with all these Rabiot rumours?

The football media have very little to say at the moment, so I guess when one outlet reports of contact between Klopp and Rabiot's mum, everyone is jumping on the bandwagon and putting it on their websites and/ or printing it.

First time I'm hearing about them and it seems to be a load of nonsense imo mate, not that I know of course because I don't but with Ed2 saying the following,

{Ed002's Note - This might be something recycled from the summer. I am not aware of Liverpool having any discussions with his mother. }

It makes me think there's no truth to these rumours or certainly nothing solid at this moment in time anyway.

I would ignore the PSG rumours we always get suddenly linked with players when we have a game coming up against them in the next 2-3 games.

Is Klopp going to pull a Rabiot out of the hat?

This rumour started in Wales.

Would be nice to have a player who can pass a ball though. He’s class.

If the West Ham owners weren’t so greasy and didn’t appear to just have money making in mind, I don't think the fans would mind about the London Stadium so much. If they spend 100million a year on players and start moving up the league then I think they’d be a lot happier about the situation. Personally I reckon the amount they spent this year was meant to last for the next 3 or 4 with a couple of cheap deals here and there to sustain it.

Do we hold any interest in Rabiot? Apparently Klopp is very interested and the club are in contact with his agent (His mum) . Hope its true, looks a great player already.

Were do these rumours come from lol. We have been speaking to his agent mother? We are stacked in Central Midfield why would we be after another.

Thank you for putting this one to bed ed.

My reply not gone up. I will try a diff reply ed sory if ot was not acceptable mate.

So is that a no interest from us in the player please?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - If there is interest Liverpool would need to speak with his mother and at some point PSG to find out any costs they might be expecting when his contract concludes. Other clubs have been speaking to both parties already.}

05 Sep 2018 19:37:59
Apparently, he has already had a call with Klopp, probably to arrange a trip to Blackpool.

Ok rd thank you for reply. Appreciate it.

Ed002, won't he be 24 by then? and hence as free as free can be?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - No it is not related to the clubs who did his training but to any costs which PSG will look to claim. Being free of a contract does not mean the registration still resides with the club he was last contracted to. There are always residual costs to pay.}

@Kloppbanger - I do think that these stories are guff however, when you say 'we are stacked in midfield why would we be after another' that doesn't really make a lot of sense if you look at the bigger picture. Lallana will surely leave in the not so distant future and, even if he doesn't, has not performed well for quite a while. Our new midfielder (Fabinho) is struggling to settle with no timeline (that I am aware of) for him to start playing games. Wijinaldum is wildly inconsistent and seems to, based on watching him last season and the start of this, have 3 bad games for every decent game he has.

So imagine Wijinaldum and Lallana leaving by next summer we have in midfield:

Keita, Henderson, Milner, Fabinho (whose ability to settle will be key in him becoming a long term fixture or not), Shaqiri can cover the advanced midfield area. I think their is still scope to improve the midfield personally. Milner is 32 and, sooner or later, will be unable to maintain his energy levels and consistency. Henderson is 28 with a dodgy injury record - he seems to have recovered well but anything could happen. Difficult to know what will happen with Fabinho - obviously we all hope he can settle and contribute. I can see space for another midfielder there personally, Rabiot on a free is not so far-fetched (in terms of us wanting a midfielder), though the actual story of speaking to his mother seems like pure fantasy from the gutter press.

Are we not looking for a player who can play the quick pass to the front 3 and escape the midfield press?

If I remember correctly, we wanted Jorginho for that role.

If Fabinho doesn't make it, then I suspect we will be looking at bringing in another midfielder.

Rabiot might make sense if we are priced out of Ruben Neves.

Agree0 Disagree0

Geez, leave Fabinho out of this would you? He hasn't even played a single competitive game for us and people are talking like we are looking to offload him already.

Agree2 Disagree0

Calm down.

Many indications Fabinho may well play for us a defender.

Nobody is slating him. He hasn't played yet!
