Liverpool Transfer Rumours

23 Jun 2021 20:44:49
Hi Eds,

Do we hold interest in Renato Sanches? Remember seeing us linked with him a couple months back. His ball retention and close control is excellent, wijnaldum-esque, I think its a no brainer if Klopp decides to stick with the same formation and tactics going into next season.

Cheers.

{Ed025's Note - i would very much doubt it benny, awful player and championship at best i would say mate..

23 Jun 2021 22:28:56
All of twitter would disagree with you Ed025. But cheers.

{Ed025's Note - no worries benny, they all thought i was wrong about bobby mate, but now humble pie is being eaten by the lorry load mate.. :)

Hey Ed's anything in the McGinn rumours? Seems an odd choice for Liverpool.

{Ed002's Note - John McGinn (CM) Whilst he would be cheaper than other options, I am not aware of any approach to Aston Villa although one of the Aston Villa coaches has shared he has been watched by Liverpool.}

23 Jun 2021 10:54:42
Not sure he’d be cheaper? They’re asking £50m+ by all accounts which is not so much steep as vertical.

23 Jun 2021 11:23:32
I’m presuming the £50mill figure is wrong as I’d of thought bissouma would be cheaper than that. I quite like McGinn think he’d fit in pretty well, he’s got an engine and can play still.

23 Jun 2021 11:58:16
That’s the price widely reported that Villa want and they’re not short of a few quid so don’t need to sell. We should hard pass at anything over £25m. I’d rather Bissouma or Neuhaus.

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of Aston Villa quoting a price to Liverpool for the player.}

23 Jun 2021 12:01:49
John Mcginn would be an excellent player. Stand out player for Villa and Scotland, came from my Scottish team Hibernian where he again was the standout player, seriously underrated.

23 Jun 2021 12:04:43
If Mcginn is 50 mill then the worlds gone mad! Phillips must be a 30mill player then.

23 Jun 2021 12:19:16
Have people actually watched mcginn he’s a great little player . If he was called mcginnho and from fluminese people on here would be all over him . Not saying he’s the answer to our problems but he would make a great addition and give us some real energy and tenacity in the midfield . A lot worse options out their than him.

23 Jun 2021 12:28:47
McGinn to Liverpool for £50 Million?
Shirley Knott!

23 Jun 2021 14:02:17
We can’t settle for him. City are chasing Kane and we want McGimp? Come off it, not a chance.

23 Jun 2021 14:02:37
Was reported in the Athletic and various other sources that they want £50m (or very close to), he’s a decent premier league player but never worth that much. For that kind of price we can do far better.

23 Jun 2021 14:45:17
Yeah we definitely don't want a Scot no one knows a lot about from an unfashionable team. That would be disastrous, what is Klopp even thinking about. Next will be someone saying he could be developed into one of the worlds best players in his position! How could that happen when nobody knows much about him?

23 Jun 2021 14:52:08
Kane you do realise we paid 8 for Robertson! That's a calculated risk. At 50 million we better be buying the finished product.

23 Jun 2021 15:02:34
McGinn: Waste of money!
My previous comments:
Ian St John? Waste of money!
Ray Kennedy? Waste of money!
An unknown keeper from Vancouver Whitecaps? Waste of time!
Gary McAllister? Too old and a waste of money!
James Milner? Waste of a free transfer!

I have a perfect track record. :-D.

23 Jun 2021 15:24:27
He is a very good player but that is a hefty fee. I can only imagine what they must be valuing grealish at if its 50 mil for McGinn.

Still we can talk all day about players in but we need to get some out the door first.

23 Jun 2021 16:07:18
Meammachinered, think Kane's post may have gone over your head a little.

23 Jun 2021 17:49:10
If he was Robertson money or even £20m, I’d say we should be all over that, but £50m? Really? There’s multiple better options out there for that kind of outlay.

23 Jun 2021 17:50:52
Paper talk. According to the journalists "the club aren't focused on signing a midfielder or attacker" yet we are being linked with loads from the same journalists. They clearly haven't a clue what's going on inside the club.

23 Jun 2021 18:07:49
That’s very true also Oh Mane.

Having said all this, we should offer them a straight swap with Keita. Job done.

23 Jun 2021 20:10:29
You would have to give them Keita and 51 mil VVVV.

23 Jun 2021 20:55:54
I commented on another post the other day saying he's not worth £30M to us for a squad player but I thought Villa would want a little more than £30M as he is worth more to them.

£50M is silly money for him though.

22 Jun 2021 16:16:32
Norwich have just pulled off one of the shock signings of the window for sure!

Be interesting to see how Milot Rashica does in the prem, especially considering the level of clubs that were supposedly after him in previous windows.

22 Jun 2021 18:41:56
I remember one of the Eds wanting us to sign him not so long ago, great business for them. Hope he does well!

22 Jun 2021 19:42:43
Or a repeat of Ricky van Wolfswinkel?

22 Jun 2021 20:50:40
Wow that’s a brilliant signing for Norwich.

22 Jun 2021 21:17:45
Circa 9 million as well nothing in this day and age.

23 Jun 2021 13:58:16
Werder Bremen had an awful year and were relegated. His value seemed to have dropped also the last couple years, and obviously, that price took a hit from C.V. too. Still, an interesting move for Norwich.

22 Jun 2021 08:05:48
Hi Ed2 hope all is well. Any potential interest in Jérémy Doku? He's young, raw, exceptionally fast and perhaps a good future replacement for either salah or mane?

{Ed002's Note - There has been in the past.}

22 Jun 2021 11:16:00
I believe we tried to sign him at 16, had him look round Melwood etc but he decided it wasn’t the right move for him. Have it in my head that Kompany gave some advise to him.

22 Jun 2021 11:44:50
He signed for Rennes last season. To me he just looks like a head down and run with it type winger, didn’t seem to have any idea what to do with the ball, passing and end product look severely lacking.

22 Jun 2021 11:48:10
We were interested but during some conversation with him and his family, we thought he was headed to Chelsea, and so our interest cooled. It later transpired that he was just talking about his sister who was called Chelsea!

22 Jun 2021 19:10:15
Looks promising to me….
