Have we shown any interest in .............
{Ed002's Note - We are not answering questions about random players.}

Would Chelsea let Baba Rahman leave I wonder? Klopp obviously knows how well he did in Germany, before he moved to Stamford Bridge.
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool has shown no interest.}

He is terrible and hence out of favor. Have you watched him last season?
02 Jun 2015 15:07:54
Would anyone accept Monchi as DoF, & Pako Ayestaran as Head Coach?
1.) 02 Jun 2015 15:54:14
i'd take ed002 as Dof and ed001 as manager, i swear we would be flying! I find it very strange that almost everything ed002 and ed001 predict happens, and not in transfer rumours but about how certain players will do, how certain managers will fail. Etc. I figured it out, ed002 must be a psycic or own a time machine! ;)

Just thinking about BR's current situation, got me thinking about Fergusons early years at United.
There are similarities for all to see. Question is, will BR get the chance to turn it around, like you know who did?
{Ed001's Note - there are few similarities. Ferguson took over a club with no opponents that could outspend them in the league. He took over a club with only one real issue holding them back - a drinking culture. We don't have a similar issue holding us back. Ferguson was a proven winner, we have a man with no track record of success. We can't outspend the opposition in the league if need be. There are so few similarities the whole comparison thing becomes nonsensical. The only real similarities are a number of years without success and we both had a playing legend who was let down by his team mates. They had Robson, we had Gerrard. Even that one has just gone now.}

Another example of LFC clinging to the past. What happened in the 80's a reason why Rodgers should be given a chance? Every other football club has moved forward and not done things based on the past, and that is the reason why Chelsea and the likes are miles ahead of LFC. Give me a break man.
2.) 25 May 2015 10:14:29
Good god, your reaching lad! That's a terrible comparison, football has completely changed from those days, I'll put money on it that you were comparing Rodgers to Shanks over the last 18 months. Your post is embarrassing to be honest.
3.) 25 May 2015 10:47:29
I was comparing Rodgers current situation, to the situation Fergie found himself in at United, 3 yrs into the job. Both had spent loads of money & failed to deliver, both finished runner up in their 2nd season, then fell away, both had fans fans calling for their head etc etc.
It was just an observation, there's no need to get your knickers in a twist.
{Ed002's Note - You are just living in the past and looking for pitiful excuses.}

Ed your living in the past post is just a way to get out of a proper response to reds bbq second post because you know he's right!
Brendan needs time, the owners promised a project, targeted him to build for the future, target young players and are competing with 4 richer teams, and are living in the past if they believe wr should be top of the league this year!
How can you not defend Brendan.either when you say fergie had noone richer than him and yet don't go fair enough Brendan has 4 richer!
Absolute joke.
Brendan deserves another year
{Ed002's Note - You are a complete idiot. Look who has been spending the money - Liverpool. Look who has the runaway debt - Liverpool. And the best excuse you can come up with is an embarrassing example from the mid 1980s - not living in the past?
Liverpool is in a mess and the fetid Rodgers is largely responsible for it. He was out of his depth when he arrived, as I told you at the time, and is out of his depth now.}

I'm not looking for excuses Ed. I realize Rodgers has probably had his day. i'm merely pointing out that bigger & better managers have gone through similarly rough times, Fergie being a prime example. i'm not saying BR is the new Fergie, I'm saying however bad it seems right now, it's still possible he could be successfull further down the line. I wonder whether an experienced DoF working above BR, would be a wiser move than just replacing the Manager outright. Last year showed us his potential. He's inexperienced, we know that,but he is a good coach.
{Ed002's Note - I can see parallels to the decline of Huddersfield Town after the Second World War. I suppose what happened at Third Lanark is far more relevant to your example and what is happening at Liverpool.}

{Ed001's Note - but he has no tactical acumen and is not willing to accept defensive coaches when it is clear he has no clue about defending. The guy is too arrogant and needs to be sacked.}

I also was disappointed when Rodgers was appointed.
How can you say he deserves another year with the mess he has created?
Clueless and out of his depth.
Just to remind the poster: Stoke 6 Liverpool 1.

Really sorry ed you were right as usual, it wasn't until I looked into It that I realised we should have won league and champions league this year.
Look forward to your 'doesnt matter what the other clubs do' post
Top notch work again eds!! The legitimacy of this website increases everyday. It's got zero propaganda and fitted facts on it lol

Imagine if last summer, we got the other players we were linked with, Instead of the ones we got:
Lallana would be Griezmann
Balotelli would be Heung Min Son
Markovic would be Firmino
Lovren would be De Vrij
Moreno would be Bertrand
Can would be Andre Gomes
Not sure who other options to Lambert/Man quills were.
How many of them did we get right? i'd say 1.
1.) 05 Apr 2015 17:58:27
U can't just name random names but we offered 8m for Bertrand and chelsea said no so we cheeper out and went for Moreno instead,
Lallana was amazing for Southampton and in the pl team of the year so u can hardly blame Rodgers for spending big money on him as his pressing style really suits our play.
Yes markovic was such a silly transfer when players like firminnho were avalible but your assuming he actually wanted to sign for us.
Lovren again was great for Southampton but we already had sakho who we all knew was better so why on earth was he brought 20m wasted for no reason.
Andre Gomes is a kid and prob wouldn't have made the impact that can has.
So really only Moreno Lovren balo & markovic was needless and a 65m mistake. That's what's gunna get brendon fired
{Ed001's Note - Moreno cost more.}
2.) 05 Apr 2015 18:01:13
I don't think it has to do with the quality of the players, but rather the quality of the coaching staff and their methods.
3.) 06 Apr 2015 07:05:30
Lovren was actually crap for the second half of the season , and also crap before he came to Southampton
23 Jul 2016 22:52:48
Have the Eds heard any rumours regarding Oscar Wendt to Liverpool? I remember him being linked with us years ago, but recently heard his name mentioned as a possible target, on another forum.
{Ed002's Note - A Hodgson target when he first arrived? Sure, why the hell not.}
03 May 2016 02:54:26
I also think Karius is the man we need. Would he class as being a 'homegrown' player from his time at City? I know Ron-Robert Zieler would, from his time spent with Man Utd/ Northampton.
{Ed002's Note - Karius is not of any interest to Liverpool nor is he "home grown".}
04 Jun 2016 04:14:35
Well he could have won a Cup, if he'd turned up in the Europa Cup Final. Maybe it's putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5 (I am a conspiracist at heart), but i'm now wondering if his 'no show' in the final was premeditated, thus enabling an excuse to try to get out of the club this Summer. i'm sure that isn't the case, but I remember having that same idea when Suarez bit Ivanovic.
08 Jun 2015 02:00:20
Origi's style is similar to Wilfried Zaha's at Palace.
