Hi looks like Firmino has signed and will be announced within 24hrs. Can any ED confirm please?

scouse_tommy

{Ed001's Note - contracts need to be drawn up, signed, medicals taken and work permits obtained. Our medicals take more than 24 hrs on their own, so no, don't expect it to be announced quite yet.}


1.) 24 Jun 2015 07:17:56
Its done eds


2.) 24 Jun 2015 07:24:26
It's official now, subject to a medical


3.) 24 Jun 2015 07:44:51
Hes signed its on the liverpool website


4.) 24 Jun 2015 07:45:04
A very exciting signing, I'm just going to close my eyes and hold my breath until it's actually signed sealed and delivered.

Without talkin money, have we offered roughly double his release clause Eds? Still a good deal if we get more than that for Sterling.

Thanks!

{Ed001's Note - no idea, I have not taken any notice of that, nor do I think it matters as it only applied to Bundesliga clubs and he wanted to come to England.}


5.) 24 Jun 2015 09:05:41
Ah ok, I didn't realize that. Thanks for the clarification! :)

{Ed001's Note - I am surprised we announced it before the medical, we normally wait, which leads to a couple of days of people moaning on here to us about it not being done!}


6.) 24 Jun 2015 10:41:42
Yeah it's unusual. Now it'll lead to days of people watching the Copa America and praying for him not to get injured.


7.) 24 Jun 2015 16:01:57
Question for you, Ed001, if you don't mind?

Have we actually signed Firmino or is the deal still open to a potential hijacking?

Thanks

{Ed001's Note - it is done but any deal can be hijacked up until player registrations are transferred over, which can not be done before July 1st.}

Arda Turans agent has spoken to the press about his client. He has said Arda wants to play in the EPL and could move this window if someone meets his buyout clause. He also stated that LFC and ARSEnal were interested. He is probably just causing a fuss and trying to drum up interest!

However he also stated he and Arda had spoken about the gooners and that Arda liked what Wenger was doing there!

Just FYI. I personally don't believe a word of it. yet!

80m plus Origi on loan for 1 season offered to Monaco for Lemar. They just turned us down and state they will not sell this year. This as news of the 'loan' for M'Bappe breaks!

I can't find them turning it down. I can't even find where it is stated that the offer was made allready. All that is stated is that liverpool are "ready to offer".


2.) 29 Aug 2017 14:00:43
Its coming from a Sky Sports affiliate. I am not in the know just passing on what was said.


3.) 29 Aug 2017 14:01:13
Same, the bid is being made but nowhere does it say that it was turned down. Mbappe news broke ages ago, try to keep up. ;)


4.) 29 Aug 2017 14:05:39
they have just agreed a fee for Balde, so the deal might not be off just yet let's wait and see.


5.) 29 Aug 2017 14:26:58
They've said every player has a price. So we'll wait and see.

Yuri- comparisons to Man city are ridiculous. Dr (dubious) Thaksin Shinawatra is a fugitive with no passport from Thailand. He was hugely corrupt when he was in charge as well. He tried to buy LFC at 1/2 value using his countries money, move on!
Like most I am exceptionally disappointed in FSG's decision to keep BR at the helm. IMO he has failed completely and needed to be moved on for the sake of our youth players and the club. I do not see us making progress under him, and I also think the transfer committee is a farce and the fact we are still using it will only cause us more pain! We needed a new manager and an experienced DOF!
So I am on record saying I do not agree with BR keeping his job, I want him fired and replaced. All that said the decision has been made. So this will be the last time I mention this. I will get behind the team and manager regardless of what I think of him. I hope he proves me wrong and I have to make a grovelling apology on here at the end of the season, but I seriously doubt it!

Well said, Scouse! We are having failure shoved down out throats and some are asking us to just take it and move on which I refuse to do. I can support our club as well as disagree with their feckless decision. we shall see if they are right because if they are not, stuff`s going to hit the fan.

Haven't been on for ages due to work. WHAT has happened? Seems some posters have developed thin skin syndrome! I enjoy it when Ed002 spews his vitriol and she does it with style lol

When did we as fans, start worrying about this, instead of (nicely' giving it back? I don't really mind being called an idiot this is just the internet!!! Perhaps some people need to take a break ad visit the real world for a bit, get some clarity!

I posted at the end of last season when people were discussing whether SG was the best ever. I said then that for me it was Dalglish, but SG was running a close second. I stand by that but it might just be a generational thing.
Having said that, on the pitch he has been a legend and deserves to be spoken about with the same respect given to Dagger et al. I am really disappointed to see posts saying good riddance, or what a load of garbage? I thought we as fans were better than that!
I have to agree though, his performances this season have not been to standard and constantly playing him has held us back as a team. Age has caught up with him and playing him out of position (and 3-4 other players every game) has hurt us. Hopefully SG will be used as an impact player from the bench in an AM role for the rest of the season, and started in a few cup games where experience is needed. I think Jordan Henderson will make a great captain and deserves to be playing back in his natural CM role. We look so much more comfortable with him in there and Lucas sat in front of the defence. All in all I wish Stevie the best of luck for the future and thanks for giving us your best years and all the fantastic highs. I for one will never forget him lifting the European cup in Istanbul. Great memories!

I have avoided posting for the first half of this season, mainly because I didn't want to jump the gun and criticise anyone unfairly.
I like to get behind the team and the manager. I have desperately been trying to do that since the season kicked off.
I have read through posts and tend to agree with the majority on this site. IMHO managing LFC has gone to Brenda's head. First he dumps his wife for a younger upgrade, whitens his teeth and starts dressing in designer labels. Now he seems to think that he can do no wrong. His team selection and set up has at times been woeful this season. I look at the players we have, and I can see a top 4 challenge. I look at how they are set up and their body language and I see top 8! This is a coaching and management issue. Why not play Sakho and Lovren together? Why the fear of dropping Skrtl or resting Stevie? Outside of his injury, why hasn't Can had more game time? Coutinho has looked lost at times this season, for such a gifted player this is a crime; is it confidence or coaching? I have tried to keep the faith but tbh if the owners decide to move Brenda on, I will not be too sorry.
Last night was a complete turnaround. We actually started to play a bit of football and keep possession! It was fun to watch and I can't say I have had much of that this season. As many others have stated Brenda simply did what most of us have been clamouring for all season. Therefore he doesn't deserve credit, the team do.If he can lose the attitude and this ridiculous stubborn streak then maybe he can save his job and win over the doubters. For the sake of LFC I genuinely hope he can. It is always better to have continuity, than to chop and change management. If he doesn't change then I don't think there will be too much of an outcry if he is moved on at the end of the season. As it stands only time will tell so I will back BR and the team and see where we stand at the end of the season!

This is a banter page so I am not going to ridicule you, however I disagree with everything you said. How does anyone know if a young player will make it, if that young player isn't given a chance? Youth players when given a chance are developing and we all learn from mistakes. The mark of a good youth player is the one who recognises his mistake and doesn't repeat it; grows as a player. Our youth system is NOT a mess. I believe FIFA put us as second in Europe after Barca for our youth system. Without it we would never have had players like Stevie, Owen, God or Carra. All of these LFC 'Legends made mistakes when being brought through, but the managers of that time supported them, look how they turned out!

Another distraction was the abuse he took from his own fans which was pretty strong all season. let's just wait and give the lad a chance (and perhaps a bit of support???)

I agree with REDOHIO here. Obviously we are not going to bring 10 players through at the same time. There has to be a balance! There are too many apologists among us. Always putting out the same old rubbish, they are to young, they need more time, blah, blah, blah. IMHO that is a load of B*ll*x. I am sick and tired of hearing it. Southampton would be a non-league club by now without their commitment to youth. Even with Money to spend they are still actively promoting youth players.We have some serious talent available to us. Unfortunately they will not develope any further without Prem/top league game time. Robo against Arsenal was mentioned above. Someone said "look how he did on loan". EXACTLY. instead of building on his momentum and developing him next to Agger and with a world class Captain in Gerrard, we dropped him then loaned him to a lower league! Maybe he would not have made it, but we will never know because we mis-managed him. The biggest crime BR can commit this window will be if he let's Lucas go and does not use Rossiter! Yes he is a kid and will make a few mistakes (Gerrard has made more than a few this season), BUT he is ready NOW! Our loans of IBE and TEXEIRA were useless. They will not really develop at the clubs they were sent too. They need to return to us asap and get first team games. They too are ready IMO. The constant mis-management of our youth system and the tired old excuses (management and fans) used to justify NOT playing youth, are p*ssing me off. If BR the self proclaimed messiah of youth football doesn't change then he needs to take a walk and allow us to bring in someone who is am ore experienced and all rounded coach, and will work with youth. Rant over

Maybe FSG will do us a favour and refuse any transfer funds (except for a keeper). Thereby forcing BR in to using the youngsters, in particular Rossiter. let's face it, the only reason Sterling is in now, was due to a lack of senior squad players and funds. I don't perpetuate the myth of BR bringing through the youth
