Hi ed002 just a quick question regarding Thuram. There's a lot of links saying we're in talks with Nice about him. I thought we'd moved on from him since we've signed gravenberch as I've been led to believe they're very similar in playing style's?
Me personally I'd like Endo and young Baj given the opportunity to stake their claims for the holding midfield slot.
Also if salah was to leave which is looking very likely in the summer do you think we would look to Jarrod Bowen as a replacement? I know klopp is keen on sane but I'd like to see Bowen added personally and he helps with the home grown issues đź‘Ťđź‘Ťđź‘Ť.

{Ed002's Note - Khephren Thuram (DM/CM) Nice felt they were messed around by clubs in the summer and then the player picked up an injury. Interest of Spurs, Liverpool and, in particular, Juventus remains but Liverpool will likely focus on a preferred DM option but will turn back to him if unsuccessful. Interest of Newcastle will likely fall away. If interest further grows his price will rise and the club would sell given the emergence of Alexis Beka Beka and an impressive youngster in Reda Belahyane. Nice do not want to sell and again a move to OLd Trafford will not be welcomed by the Nice supporters. Real Madrid have him on a list of potential additions given they are facing midfield departures in the summer - and I would not rule them, or indeed Manchester City, out. Player wants PSG but they have no interest at this time - but his representative is pushing PSG as well as Real Madrid and will encourage the player to wait out the year and see what happens.
Bowen signed a new contract so it would be very unlikely and he would be very expensive. There are much preferred options.}

Our preferred option for defensive midfielder seems to be Andre then I take it? đź‘Ť.

{Ed002's Note - He would be first choice but there is interest from elsewhere plus the person handling the transfers for Liverpool has caused a little hiccup. Something can still be done - but there are other options.}

What makes it look very likely as though Salah is off in the summer?
Apparently he's been leaving every summer since he signed for us.

Hi ed2 just out of Premier league performances alone, which I have seen to be excellent, do you think if salah goes we could approach villa for diaby? Or have you heard of any interest? . I presume it would take a huge offer anyway at this point.
Thanks for all the effort you put into this great site.

Devinejd don’t worry salah’s going to sign a contract extension he is not going anywhere anytime soon. He is after Rushies goal record.

03 Dec 2023 08:01:18
@Grino, About 165 or so goals? He’ll be around for another 6 or 7 years then.
1
03 Dec 2023 12:48:09
I think it's not doable for him to break the record. He would need to score around 45 goals in each of the next three seasons.
Either the club cash in on him before that or he runs out of steam and doesn't quite score the goals.

03 Dec 2023 21:23:42
WDW I think 4 more years after this season if he can keep going and he is like Peter Pan and if anything he looks better than ever this season.
Will he do it am not sure but I bet anything Mo believes he can.

03 Dec 2023 22:14:14
I don’t agree grino that Salah is better than ever. He certainly not as explosive as he used to be and gets dispossessed much more than he ever has.
That being said he has adapted his game and is becoming more of an assist machine rather than a consistent goal threat.
He will always score goals but he used to be able to score them on his own, these days he’s much more reliant on his team mates to create the chances for him.
His numbers are still amazing and I hope he stays around for another couple of years at least.

Really don’t know what Salah people are watching. Completely lost the ability to beat a man and his first touch and finishing are leaving a lot to be desired. Definitely on a downwards trajectory and I would be selling in the summer to get some funds to replace him. If Darwin could consistently finish we should be building our attack around him now.
6
04 Dec 2023 12:26:23
But Darwin can’t consistently finish, and Salah is contributing enormously in terms of goals and assists, baffles me that anyone would want Salah to go.

Last few performances haven't been good from Salah. He is giving away the ball a bit too much right now. I just hope this is fatigue and not the start of a decline. I am also concerned by Diaz a bit. He is definitely not as explosive as he was before the injury, when he used to beat his man for fun. I really loved watching him glide past players, but now he gets dispossessed much more often while dribbling. I just hope his sharpness returns eventually as he trust his knee more and more.

WDW - We won't get that many penalties!

Careful boys - last time i questioned Mo's ability to maintain possession and control the ball i was placed under the Billy Goats Gruff bridge.

I will not accept any replacement for Salah unless the man is Serhou Guirassy.

It’s ok @Lee, when we sign Mbappe you can call him Serhou.

Hi Ed002, hope you're doing well. Don't want to ask just any random question, but I saw some reports earlier that LFC is interested in Lois Openda. Given the well-traveled RB to LFC route, I thought I'd run it by you. I don't know the player personally and have never seen him play.
Thanks.
2
{Ed002's Note - Lois Openda (S) Only joined RBL this summer and whilst he is doing very well with sides interested in talking to RBL about him, they have no interest in selling. Still seen as a potential Osihem replacement for Napoli. Wildcard could be Milan who had interest in him at Brugge but their focus is on another. RBL are losing one or two other forwards and will reject any requests for discussion. I am not aware of any approach to them by Liverpool whose focus should be on a Salah replacement.}

Thanks, 002. So, my deduction from your response is that Openda may not be a suitable replacement for Salah. However, if you may, and I don't mean to put you on the spot here, but based on how emphatic you sounded, would you say it's a given that Salah is a goner end of the season? I know you've in us over the years of his agent's mover. Do you believe that Salah is definitely off to Saudi next summer?
1
{Ed002's Note - Openda is a striker and Liverpool's primary need will be for a versatile RW to replace Salah in the summer.}

Warning dislusional lfc fan message coming up.
I recently seen a few "fresh" links to lfc and mbappe over past couple days. ED002 if I may ask? Is it at all possible/ feasible we make a move for him in the summer. A recent report is saying (not that I belive it) that Madrid will probably pull out if a deal to sign him and if that the case lfc stand a good chance to making a move for him. Let's take the astronomical finances involved to do a deal out of equation for a second, do you think he would even consider lfc if finances could be sorted? Appreciate your time to read my question.

{Ed002's Note - Kylian Mbappe (S) Wants to move to Real Madrid but for them the financial outlay on the overall package could be too much this coming summer unless they can make significant space in the wage structure. There is an outside chance they will look to a deal in January and if they do they look to include a player or two in any deal. PSG would demand Rafa Marin and one of Rodrygo Goes or Vinicius Jr plus a lower fee. It would suit all parties and avoid an auction for obscene wages in the summer. Al-Hilal had a huge €300M offer rejected and the player may see it as too early for such a move, but they could offer the huge wages being demanded. Newcastle would not realistically be in a position to buy him and any interest from them can be discounted whilst their owners plan to take him directly to Saudi. Realistically, Madrid, Middle East, Manchester United, Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Chelsea, if they could clear significant wages from the books, are the only viable options although Juventus have a significant tax advantage over the other clubs, but the costs are still huge and they can be discounted. Chelsea could look to striking a deal including a player PSG are interested in but likely not going to be paying the desired wages and bonuses – but they could look for a solution. Bayern Munich have added Harry Kane and have other priorities for the summer. Manchester United could potentially move for Mbappe if the ownership issue is completed soon but for now they are concentrating on others and it is unlikely the majority owners would agree to such a financial commitment; and advice being provided to the player would be to ignore any interest from there. Manchester City have a priority to tie down Haaland and remove a clause in his contract that will allow him to leave in the summer at a fixed fee – and they know there is interest in the player – if he were to decide to leave, then Mbappe will become a consideration. I do not see Liverpool committing to such a huge cost of wages and bonuses to be able to sign Mbappe. PSG hope that the situation forces Mbappe to invoke a one year extension.}

From a ex player still involved with the club so won’t name, when asked about Salah leaving if we got mega money Someone suggested mbappe as a replacement? His reply was a no he said mbappe by all accounts is a bit of a diva. Said he runs the dressing room and the team and is only interested in himself. Selfish. Sounds to me that we won’t be wanting him .
13
30 Nov 2023 15:52:28
Based on the feedback given, it does seem like Mbappe may not have many options if he refuses to budge on his wage demands and bonuses. I know Mbappe is a very good footballer but for teams to go all out to sign him at a very high cost, it could be financial suicide if his move does not work out well. To me, that is too big a risk for a club like Liverpool. As much as we'd love to see him wearing our jersey and playing for our club, it just doesn't seem feasible under our current owners. If he ain't coming, I hope we can kill off this rumour and focus on more realistic players.

Tomori looks like a wasted talent in the current AC Milan team, surely time to move on for him?
Has any prem teams looked at him for the coming winter window or the summer 24 window and have Liverpool checked him out as an alternative to Inacio?

{Ed002's Note - Yes tghere is interest but he is not on the list for Liverpool.}

That’s odd - a product of the Chelsea Academy and we aren’t interested. Strange days.

Were waiting till 2030 when he hits his peak.

Serious question…. is he any good? Think I have only seen him play (on tv) maybe 3 or 4 times. Similar age to Joe Gomez, how does he compare? I don’t watch much football outside the Premier League.

Interesting, are you able to share any names on the list that haven't been frequently discussed in here? Have there been any new developments?

Eds, do you think that there will be both CDM/ CB movement from Liverpool this winter or it is more likely that they do business in summer?
Read report about Todibo from Nice, they look pretty solid in deffence this season. Is he a possible target considering the Nice- United newly formed ties?
Thank you for your work and reports.
0
{Ed002's Note - Jean-Clair Todibo (CB) Various scouts, including a very high-end independent scout and ex-PL player who has recently been helping Manchester United and Liverpool together with Newcastle, Aston VIlla and Lyon have been looking. Bayern Munich, Spurs, Borussia Dortmund, Manchester United have declared an interest, but Nice are still looking for perhaps €50M to sell and Manchester United have a preferred first choice addition - so they would likely make two additions at CB over two windows. Spurs might provide a wildcard option but I would expect Liverpool to look to other options first.}

29 Nov 2023 17:58:57
Ed02 and maybe you can't or you have addressed it already but can you tell us a few of the "other" options we are looking at for the CB position? Thanks, man.
