Hi Ed’s not sure if it’s been answered before but do we have any interest in Fellaini? Dear god I hope not.

Ricky83

{Ed002's Note - Not as far as I am aware.}


1.) 21 Apr 2018 23:47:35
Use him as a scarecrow over summer when we’re not playing?


2.) 22 Apr 2018 06:33:28
The only way I could see us even being remotely interested in him is if Klopp can see a central defender in him, he’s not quick or agile enough to play anywhere else in a klopp team.


3.) 22 Apr 2018 16:14:20
Jaysus Molby how many penalties would he give away.


4.) 22 Apr 2018 21:24:33
There’s no reason to sign him. Terrible player and add to that he’s an ex toffee and an ex Manc,

{Ed025's Note - how very insular of you mr S, im not a fan of his but the matter of who he has played for previously should have nothing to do with it mate..


5.) 23 Apr 2018 02:21:58
Totally irrelevant who he had previously played for, if he is good enough would love to sign him but saying that he is a terrible player and would hope we don’t have any interest in him. Would love to get dacoure of Watford.


6.) 23 Apr 2018 20:13:12
Fellani still likes an elbow or two eh? No thanks, the guy is a walking red card.


 

 

07 Jan 2018 03:11:23
Hi Ed’s have we shown any interest in Malcolm from Bordeaux or Fred from Shakhtar Donetsk? Cheaper options and both look very good on the ball. Would love to hear your opinions on what you think off both players and if they would be suitable to replace coutinho (which is very difficult) .

Ricky83

{Ed001's Note - we have watched Malcolm a number of times and he would not be a cheaper option in any way shape or form, no idea why you would even suggest that he is.}


1.) 07 Jan 2018 05:06:10
Surely we want the best option, not the cheapest option.

{Ed001's Note - the lad is a forward, he would be more of a replacement for Salah than Coutinho.}


2.) 07 Jan 2018 05:46:28
Was just going off the figures that have been doing the rounds . Have read up figures off 30-40 million which is a lot cheaper than the 90 million For Lemar. Judging by the replies Lemar is our number one target so hopefully we can get this one over the line before the Man City game. Ed’s do You think either Fred or Malcom would improve us a great deal? Or are there better and viable options out there for us? Thank you for your replies and appreciate all the hard work you put in.

{Ed001's Note - this is why we don't talk money, the articles suggesting 30-40m for Malcom are insane, they asked a lot more than that. I have no ideas about Fred, never seen him play, but the other lad is quality, however he is very much like Salah and so would only be worth pursuing if Salah left.}

Hi Ed’s hope your all well. Have always wondered why have we never gone back in for the players we have chased in January or near the end of the transfer window which we didn’t just get over the line? Was it a case of panic buying?
Konoploynka
Texeira from shakhtar
Fekir
Kerimba from Hoffenheim
Mind the spelling of the names.

Ricky83

{Ed002's Note - Well, taking Fekir as an example, Liverpool screwed around Lyon.}


1.) 17 Mar 2019 07:29:00
Aye kerimba.


2.) 17 Mar 2019 13:44:04
Also we were top of the league by Miles and I don't think anyone wanted to change the dynamic of the dressing room. Not to mention we spent a fortune in the summer.

I believe fsg invested so much because of our progression last season. So I'm expecting some big signings again this summer. Especially if we miss out on the league.


 

 

08 Jan 2019 13:18:57
What’s the situation with Bobby Adekanye? Came with a massive reputation and potential. How is he doing at Liverpool and is he looking to leave?

Ricky83

1.) 08 Jan 2019 14:01:07
He's leaving at the end of the season. Lazio likely destination.


2.) 08 Jan 2019 14:18:04
I was reading about him earlier on either on the Echo or Mirror websites (same thing! ) . Saying he had been offered a new contract but his agent was pushing for more or a move. Seems his agent (relative? Not sure) has pushed him about trying to maximise earnings hence he is already onto his 4th/ 5th team and now moving again to Lazio.

A shame as he seems to have all the attributes and is getting to an age where he should be settling and breaking through.

Think the reactions are going overboard. Yes klopp set it out wrong. We’re normally all over city by attacking them but sat back but hopefully it’s a lesson klopp will learn. Man City we’re hungry and their desire showed as they wanted it more but we’re still on top and any city would love to be in our position. Don’t give up hope and keep believing.

Ricky83

1.) 04 Jan 2019 07:57:33
I think it's disrectful for anyone to say that Klopp "set it out wrong" or "Klopp picked the wrong players" because quite clearly he is the manager of the team, he is on the training pitch. The arrogance of some people that actually think they know more is quite nauseating. One defeat in the League this season! Let Klopp do his job and the rest of us just sit and watch.

{Ed025's Note - absolutely irish, your spot on mate..


2.) 04 Jan 2019 10:02:28
Absolutely Irish Rover. He didn't get it wrong at all with the 4-3-3 formation. LFC was away at the reigning champion's ground and 9 out of 10 people would say they would favor a conservative setup to see what ManC was going to throw at us at the start of the game. I think it was a matter of them wanting it a bit more (the win) and also our luck going missing (Mane's shot hits the post and going in while Sane's shot hitting the post and going out) .


3.) 04 Jan 2019 10:52:28
Brilliant response, IR. "Klopp got it wrong". According to who? You, Ricky83? Me? that makes no sense, really. Klopp picked the players based on what he set out to do and for the most part, it worked if what he set out to do was to stifle them (knowing they would have more of the possession) and then counter them with quick passing and movement. City had ONE shot on target in the first half (4 shots on target overall) and so the tactic actually worked, in a way. Btw, this is how we (and CP, Leceister and Chelsea this season) have ALWAYS played City (and smashed them) so why would he change? City won a "squeaker" and that can happen esp. if the game was dead even and boy, that was a dead even game. In Boxing, City won via split decision.

One league defeat in 21 games is NOTHING to sneeze at and mind you, City won based on fine margins and nothing more. We can always do better BUT the arrogance of some comments here need to stop. I don't want Klopp to do what I want. I want him to do what he thinks is right and for right now, he is doing a bang up job so I will defer to him first before listening to any fan who has NO idea about what goes on in training, game preparation, tactics, personnel decisions etc.


4.) 04 Jan 2019 12:54:15
It's not a question of fans' arrogance or what happens on the training pitch. It is what we see on the match pitch and the fact is that Henderson should not be picked as he is no longer good enough to be in the side. Why de herr Klopp cannot see that is a mystery to me and a lot more regular fans!


5.) 04 Jan 2019 12:58:01
I think people are referring to the midfield line-up with regards to picking the wrong players.
That midfield is not the one that has been performing so well recently.

It has a history of not creating too many opportunities for the attack and letting opposition players run off/ past them.

The fact that we came so close to getting a result in spite of it makes it slightly more frustrating as it could have been so much better.

I know fine margins were involved (hitting the post and goal-line clearances), but that selection and performance seemed to be a 'try not lose' rather than a 'lets play our normal game that has worked so well recently'.

I'm still 100% behind the team and a 4 point lead at this stage of the season with the teams that we have played is great.


6.) 04 Jan 2019 13:02:26
It’s move on time, next game most important.

Hi Ed’s and fellow reds hope you had a good Christmas. This topic probably has been covered so forgive me if it has but when we signed VVD I was happy with the signing but at 75 million seemed a hell of a lot to pay but he seeems to be worth 150 million Atleast. He is a complete beast who has taken us to another level. The question I’m asking is why didn’t the likes of Chelsea or Man City push for him as they don’t really have any problems splashing the cash or was VVD inisistent on joining Liverpool?

Ricky83

{Ed001's Note - this was dealt with at the time. Klopp tapped him up and convinced him to join Liverpool, both Chelsea and Man City thought he was too expensive so never followed up interest anyway.}


1.) 27 Dec 2018 05:10:58
Surely they are rueing their selection now!


2.) 27 Dec 2018 05:34:29
Ed001, correct me if I am wrong. Actually Chelsea thought he was too expensive but when City approached didn't he told them will move only to Liverpool.

{Ed001's Note - they baulked at the price initially, it was when Saints went back to them, after being annoyed at Klopp for tapping him up, that Virgil said he wanted Liverpool.}


3.) 27 Dec 2018 06:11:54
Thanks Ed.

{Ed001's Note - welcome mate.}


4.) 27 Dec 2018 08:24:58
150m maybe a bit too steep but sure he does look a 100m+ player now. Genuinely believed Liverpool massively overpaid for him but he may end up winning you the league.

I was very skeptical about him when he joined Liverpool but a huge chunk of humble pie for me.

Also this year the league looks to be yours to lose now. What has happened to City since mourinho left Manchester.?


5.) 27 Dec 2018 16:40:38
Is there any inaide knowledge as to why VVD wanted us over City?

{Ed002's Note - Because of the illegal approach by Klopp and his going on strike to force a move to Liverpool. Klopp convinced him it was the right move to make. Done to death.}


 

 

12 Dec 2018 10:50:17
Wow what a performance. That was Liverpool back to their best with their pressing and hurrying the opposition. Napoli were rattled and if Liverpool had been clinical the game would have been out of reach but was nice to see the boys with their mojo back. Looks like money well spent on VVD and Allison.

Ricky83

1.) 12 Dec 2018 11:39:35
It's was an amazing performance. the first game i have been at this year and the confidence Allison gives us is immeasurable. I can't remember the last time I felt that we are now capable of scoring one goal to win games.

The situation regarding MC has certainly taken a few twists and turns. Fair play to the lad as he has stuck to his word. He agreed personal terms wirh Chelsea dating back to may and he is just following through with his agreement. Looks a magnificent player but you win some and you lose some. I’m just confused as to why it’s taken toll August to agree a deal if personal terms were agreed in may?

It’s very risky getting players at the end of their career coming to the premier league. Lewa is a class act and has been in Germany for so long but the premier league is a different kettle off fish. Shevchenko to Chelsea springs to mind and why would pay silly wages on a 33-34 year old when we can pay mane who has shown his value again to Liverpool. All this talk off mane leaving is nonsense. He loves Liverpool and we love him.

If he leaves then fine but Atleast he goes with a premier league trophy and some wonderful memories. Hopefully he will see sense and continue this wonderful journey Liverpool is on. Let’s all stop fretting about who will stay or go and just enjoy the ride. Happy new year in advance to all the Ed’s and all fellow reds.

Crazy to think how many youngsters have left Chelsea and have been successful. Bad management or just buying whoever shows interest maybe their downfall.

Totally agree with that. I really hope arsenal win the league not only for the premier league and it’s not a pretty sight to see city pick it up every year. I have enjoyed watching arsenal play and always liked them as a club since the wenger days. Up the gooners.

Yes the ref was terrible but we had the opportunity to level and take the game into extra time. We can’t blame the ref for the penalty miss and taking saka off disrupted the attacking flow we had. I think we should focus on the players that didn’t deliver before we berate the ref.

No chance he is leaving and with Klopp signing a new deal, I don’t see mane or Salah going. They here to stay.

Success will bring a lot of hate to towards the club from opposition but do we care? Well done to
City and they deserved it. Showed champions mentality last game off the season to score 3 goals in 5 mins, I think the only other team to be capable of doing that would be one of fergies at **** united.
