Hi eds, read in Korean football forum. Son Heung Min could be a Klopp target. Makes sense as he German and Bundesliga trained. Maybe 60mil can prise him away from spurs. I Will take him in an instant as he is bpl proven.

LFC_lover

1.) 18 May 2018 17:46:19
He's a good player, but 60mil? he's barely worth half of that. You're right though I think he would be excellent for us and would add depth. Not a starter for me though.


2.) 18 May 2018 18:27:31
Son is brilliant, so underrated because he had English players in the team around him. He's far better than Deli Ali.


3.) 18 May 2018 19:05:55
I agree with kloppshop. He is an excellent player. Works his socks off and technically brilliant.


4.) 18 May 2018 19:14:51
Son is good, he’s a poor mans Firmino. Wouldn’t improve the team and the money would be best spent elsewhere. I know a few people on here are big fans but if he wasn’t at spurs I doubt he’d get the hype he does.


5.) 18 May 2018 20:47:32
Son is the ONLY player I would take from Spurs. He is just brilliant.


6.) 18 May 2018 23:31:52
I think he's a cheaper model of Christiano Ronaldo, mannerisms his running technique, physique but without the ego. I think JK could step him to the next level and turn him into something quite special.


7.) 19 May 2018 01:42:12
Son would be a perfect fit in our team. Even mentioning him in the same breathe as firmino is a plus in my book.


8.) 19 May 2018 03:12:35
Marshy, when u said "cheaper version of Cristiano Ronaldo ", that's totally wicked! Love it.


9.) 19 May 2018 04:29:14
Son is absolute quality, would love him at Liverpool, but I'm not sure if where he'd fit in the XI.


10.) 19 May 2018 12:51:47
Son would be perfect for our team.


11.) 19 May 2018 17:45:09
I think he would be the perfect squad player. He works his socks off, can play in a couple of positions can score goals and is only 25.
I am sure the marketing department would love to have a high profile Asian player in the squad!


12.) 20 May 2018 00:06:21
Brover- you wouldn’t take either Vertonghan or Alderwielder? They are 2 of the best centre backs in the league. A fit Danny rose isn't a bad player and how about Erikson I would happily have him in our team feeding firmino salah and Mane.

Hi guys, not bashing Henderson. But has anyone seen Henderson dribble past a player?

LFC_lover

{Ed001's Note - how many times did Gerrard dribble past a player? What a pointless and idiotic way to bash a player while pretending not to bash him. It is not his role in the team to be dribbling past players, the last thing you want your deep lying midfielder to do is that unless he is Mousa Dembele, who has a covering defensive midfielder alongside him in case he gets into trouble.}


1.) 23 May 2018 06:56:27
It is rare because it isn't his job in the side to take people on. But he can, and does, do it when he has to. He completed 8 take ons in the league this season.

Seems like a pretty pointless thing to slate him over.


2.) 23 May 2018 07:02:01
Yes I have 🤝.


3.) 23 May 2018 07:04:41
No, but I’ve seen him hit an absolute thunderbastard past one of the best keepers in the world.


4.) 23 May 2018 07:13:12
Yes, every player should be judged solely on the merit of dribbling like Messi. . . .


5.) 23 May 2018 07:20:33
More to the point, when was the last time Salah made a last-ditch, goal line clearance? Overrated, obviously.

{Ed001's Note - or Firmino save a penalty?}


6.) 23 May 2018 07:36:35
The problem with Henderson is he is not making other contribution that's worthy of being a captain.

In repertoire of skills a midfielder, one of the must have is dribbling. It relievs the defence of presdure and gives the midfielder time to pick a pass. i have studied Henderson videos in depth and I realise the reason he makes easy back passess or pressure into error is because he dare not dribble past players. Not once.


It is not a prerogative of striker to make goal line clearance. Hence the flawed logic of some.


7.) 23 May 2018 07:59:50
How many times did Roy Keane dribble past a player? Fairly certain he was a decent enough captain. What about xabi? I was about to go further with a list of players but instead I’ll say if all players were exactly the same with their repertoire of skills, the game would be quite different.


8.) 23 May 2018 08:01:03
You have to be taking the p#ss? Did you study how he presses? Or how he blocks passing lanes? Or how he always works to make himself available for a pass from the CB's?
Maybe we should have kept coutinho to play holding mid so we could all see him dribble past players like fifa18? Bet we wouldn't be in the champions league final if we did.


9.) 23 May 2018 08:07:10
Flawed logic?
Hark at the garbage you spout about Henderson!
I'll bet you won't watch if he lifts Big Ears on Saturday night.


10.) 23 May 2018 08:10:44
Well I've studied Henderson in well over about 10,000 minutes of actual football matches, rather than videos, and he definitely has the touch and speed to step away from a challenge when he has to.

The difference is that unlike the media's fantasy players like Dembele, Kante and Pogba (All quality in their own rights of course) ; Henderson understands that the ball travels quicker than he can, so as soon as he has space he releases the ball to set us on our way for the counter attack. He is vital to our tactics because of this.

He also switches play to the wide men better than anyone else in the Premier League. Who else consistently hits raking diagonal balls with such perfect accuracy and speed? That is a pretty crucial skill when your wide men are your biggest goal threats.

When he is fit, Henderson is easily one of the hardest players in Europe to play against as well. Just ask De Bruyne, Naingollan and Eriksen. I'm pretty sure Henderson plays in cargo shorts, because he's still got all 3 of them in his pocket.

He's hands down (or c*ck on the block, as is this sites newest obsession) the most under rated player I have ever known to play the game. The only people who appreciate him are every manager he plays for, every team mate he plays with, and about 50% of Liverpool fans. I've never met a neutral who understands how good he is. Well, I hope he lifts the Champions League and puts his finger up to the lot of them.

My message to any kid aspiring to be a pro is "in a world of Shelveys and Wilsheres, be a Jordan Henderson".


11.) 23 May 2018 08:14:48
Have you ever played the game it’s quicker to pass then run with the ball? What nonsense mate!


12.) 23 May 2018 08:26:21
Go get him mk.


13.) 23 May 2018 08:40:41
Welcome to the problem with 'analysis'. Anyone can decide their a pro now.


14.) 23 May 2018 08:58:36
Break-in at our place last night. couldn't believe it, they stole my betamax copy of Jan Molby’s Greatest Dribbles and the hard-to-find hardcover edition of Beat 10 Players And Score by Xabi Alonso. Fortunately, my photo of Graeme Souness waltzing magnificently around the whole Everton midfield wasnt taken.


15.) 23 May 2018 09:19:06
'not bashing Henderson' mate I think you'll find you are bashing him and I don't understand why? the only problem with Hendo is his fitness, if that was 100% he'd be one of the best midfielders around.

I can't add much more to what MK has said really, he's hit the nail on the head with that post. When fully fit, Hendo is one of our best players yet so many people fail to see this, so many people calling for VVD to be the new captain etc (I know you haven't) and it really winds me up, the lad deserves respect and he deserves us to get behind him, calling for a new captain is so disrespectful.

If he scores the winner on Saturday night, suddenly he'd be the best thing since sliced bread and people would forget about slating him as much as they did. Support him, he's a bloody good, dedicated, passionate Liverpool player, what more can you ask for?


16.) 23 May 2018 09:29:42
Salah and MK, fit or not fit Henderson is not one of the best midfielder around period. He is good enough for bottom half of league though.


17.) 23 May 2018 09:30:33
Oh just stop this nonsense, you troll. Do you work for The FSB or what? This is completely irrelevant. Hendo plays behind two other midfielders whose job it is to drive forward with the ball from midfield, most commonly Gini or Ox, or Emre when he wasn't playing the deeper role. Klopp's number 6 is under instructions to look up and switch the play or play balls behind the defense. In-spite of this Hendo completed 9 dribbles this season, so yes, he is capable of it.


18.) 23 May 2018 09:31:24
Also, why bother starting your post with 'not bashing Henderson'? You not only 100% are bashing Henderson, you've even claim to have put in a significant amount of work into finding this thing to bash Henderson over.


19.) 23 May 2018 10:18:04
Why would Henderson need to go on on long dribbling runs? He's doing his job for the team, we have one of the fastest counter attacks around, we have three forwards that can take on and dribble round players, we need a midfielder who is there to break down attacks and play the quick passes to set our counter attack off, we need a midfielder who will sit in the midfield and help protect our back line, keep it calm and simple and when needed ping a pass into space, in Henderson we have a player who does these things very well, not world class not a player for highlights because he's not a show boating player. But when he plays we as a team tend to play better. To bash him because he doesn't dribble past players proves how little you know about football.


20.) 23 May 2018 10:21:07
Some people don’t know how to prepare for a final and the nerves which comes with them and then some people just troll- whatever the reason mate, it appears you are alone in this argument. There are also some compelling arguments as to why you are wrong in your statements, perhaps you should take a breath, read through them once more before attempting to evoke an emotional reaction.


21.) 23 May 2018 11:02:13
Have you ever seen messi save a pen.


22.) 23 May 2018 11:08:30
Henderson is so good, I’ve seen him bending crosses around mountains that still reach Salah 😉.


23.) 23 May 2018 10:49:02
The one thing I have learned the most while reading these pages over the last donkey years, is to applaud the bravery it takes to persist with an opinion, no matter how misguided, ill-informed and just downright wrong it is. So I do that now. 👍👏.


24.) 23 May 2018 11:20:08
The role of Hendo is to cut passing lanes, recycle the ball and feed the front 3. He does all of those things great. Why would you want him dribbling past players in front of the back 4 when he can just pass the ball and set us on a counter? Complete and utter delusion from you LFC lover, he has proven to be an integral cog in our midfield the past few years. You clearly don't understand football.


25.) 23 May 2018 11:59:50
So im guessing you haven't taken any notice of how much our tempo slows down when Henderson doesn't play, we miss him big time when not playing and he is the only one of the deep players with any urgency to get us on the attack.


26.) 23 May 2018 12:14:20
i wonder if this joker is "leek" (can't remember his full username but sure most will know who i'm talking about) . he used spout this kind of nonsense on the regular.

we are days away from our clubs biggest game in over a decade. as far as I'm concerned, no fan would decide to disrespect any of our players at such a time.


27.) 23 May 2018 15:48:31
Mk and plenty others have already said quite enough.

If I can just add on a couple of footnotes:
1) From where I was, when Henderson joined LFC, Steve Mcmahon was some sort of TV pundit and he absolutely slaughtered him every single game. He regularly singled him out for criticism and stated that he did nothing to contribute to the team and had no impact. Till date these opinions and statements about Henderson are still being repeated and I cannot help but feel many supporters did not assess him on their own but simply regurgitated what the pundits had wrongly said. They celebrate whenever he is not in the team and fail to see what he brings to the team.

2) I'm pretty sure on a few occasions when Emre Can was playing the holding role, a couple of poor touches or stray passes and the team was on the back foot and a couple of times, conceded. So, no thanks. I don't fancy the deepest midfielder to take the risk and dribble past players. I rather someone with an assured touch, strength to hold on to the ball, positioning to be in the right places, awareness of where his teammates are, and the passing range and accuracy to retain possession or build an attack.

3) I'm sorry, but Ed001, I'll have to disagree with you on Firmino. He did make a few penalty saves, albeit for the opposing team. He rode challenges, out-muscled defenders and slotted the ball past keepers to score instead of going down to gain a penalty or two. So the most complete center forward in the league has managed this great feat that seemed impossible. =P.

{Ed001's Note - fair point sg, I stand corrected.}

Mo:" i challenge Kane to score 30 goals without penalties "

LFC_lover

1.) 17 May 2018 06:59:15
Mo is a legend after one season
Kane is a half wit, with a speech impediment ( albeit he can score)


2.) 17 May 2018 07:37:38
I doubt you meant to cause offense but there’s nothing wrong with a speech impediment mate.


3.) 17 May 2018 08:06:20
Don't you mean:

Harry Kane "I challenge Mo to score more than 30 goals consistently"

Mo Salah "I challenge your team to outscore mine"

OR, even better:

Mo Salah:"I'm sorry, what? WHAT?! I can't hear you over the noise of all of these fans cheering our Champions League win. Now what were you saying about goals? "


4.) 17 May 2018 09:31:02
Or rather, 'I'm too busy concentrating on preparing for a champions league final to focus on bitter rivals'.

We've not won jack yet.


5.) 17 May 2018 09:41:17
He has a speech impediment - he opens his mouth to say "Good goal, Christian" and it comes out as "MY goal, Christian"!

With Fekir as certainty, just like to ask you guys who you prefer in midfield 3:

My preferred - Ox, Keita, Fekir

Or do you prefer:
Milner Henderson Wijjy.

LFC_lover

1.) 11 May 2018 01:12:19
Has Fekir been confirmed or something?

{Ed0333's Note - if Nabil Fekir had been confirmed I think you’d of heard about it. You would have seen grown men crying tears of joy and jubilation.


2.) 11 May 2018 01:40:31
Henderson, Keita, Fekir would be a quality midfield.


3.) 11 May 2018 02:08:53
Jorginho - Kieta - Fekir
With AOC, Wiji and Hendo as back up!


4.) 11 May 2018 03:21:14
Keita Henderson Fekir.


5.) 11 May 2018 04:23:06
Henderson, Keita, Ox or Fekir.


6.) 11 May 2018 05:51:34
Hi ed 0333, thanks for input. I did say "as certainty ". Of course confirmation will only happen once window open. But now Fekir is as good "as certainty".

{Ed001's Note - in what way is it certainty? And why would confirmation only happen once the window is open? Is this some new rule that has just been invented or are you just making things up?}


7.) 11 May 2018 09:14:30
Where’s Ed002 when you need him.


8.) 11 May 2018 13:07:43
Pretty sure Lemar was a ‘certainty’ in January.


9.) 11 May 2018 14:08:38
No he was just too lazy to type 'assuming Fekir signs'. It's only 3 more characters but that can be a make or break for some folk. (See, could have written people, but used folk to save time) .


10.) 11 May 2018 15:37:18
But then you gave your real conscientious character away by taking the time to explain yourself Bardzo!


11.) 11 May 2018 16:23:25
LFC_Lover, there is nothing "certain" about Fekir. Nothing whatsoever, based on fact. Now if you have inside info that the Ed's don't know, please share with us but based on what we all know, Fekir is NO certainty. Do i want it to happen? Yes. Will it? We shall see.


12.) 11 May 2018 17:16:27
Keita, Hendo, Fekir.


13.) 11 May 2018 19:30:20
I know, SGred. It's my cross to bear. I'm a stickler for over explanation. Then I go and talk a load of nonsense, jabbering on. I have no friends and have to interact with whomever I can using pedantry, sarcasm and an over inflated ego. Oops, there I go again.

Hi eds, assume that BPL season ended and we have the UCL final. I assume sturridge can play a part in UCL final if needed?

LFC_lover

{Ed002's Note - No.}


1.) 05 May 2018 16:58:59
He won't be needed. We have Ings and Solanke.

Have you watched Sturridge at WBA? I'm sure Ings would have had a more successful loan period there than Sturridge has. A shame, as he was a beast when fit, but true.


2.) 05 May 2018 17:43:53
Studge is old news and should be left exactly where he is.


3.) 05 May 2018 17:57:35
Sturridge has been great for us but his injuries have taken their toll. Put him in the right place and he will still find the back of the net. Trouble is, he can’t get into those positions as well as he could. A little appreciation for his former abilities would be nice though. I got one hope he can still go on and score lots of goals for the right club in the right league for him.


4.) 05 May 2018 18:11:14
ND. I did say he was a beast when fit. Take from that what you will.


5.) 05 May 2018 19:22:45
He’ll get nowhere near our match day squad now and rightly so.
