BBC Gossip linking Pepe Reina with a return.

Surely not. was past his best when he left and we have just signed a keeper.

Interesting link. His distribution is definitely right up Klopp's street, but he did have a couple of error strewn seasons before he left. At only 33, he's still young for a keeper.

My view is this would only be credible if Migs was on his way out. Leaving Karius and Reina to fight it out for a starting position - probably Pepe to start off with - and then Ward to come back after a year long loan.

I think it could be a very shrewd move with an experienced, generally reliable keeper who plays to the strengths of the team, with Karius then learning and adapting as heir to the jersey.

Wouldnt be too upset if that transpires, but having Migs, Reina, and Karius, as well as Ward on loan, would be crazy!

Just wondering, if the above does transpire, and Reina comes in and Migs leaves, has there ever been a situation where a player has been bought to replace someone else, who leaves, and then comes back to replace the replacement?!

Only one I can think of is Rushie and Aldo, albeit Aldo stayed for a bit longer and overlapped with a returning Rushie for a season.

Any others? Any clubs.

Only one I can think of is Lukaku at Chelsea who came as 'the new Drogba'. Then he left and Drogba came back.

If you follow the BBC link to the star article (which itself was a rehash of an old foreign article) you see it was clearly written before we signed Karius but only just published. Bizarre.

I would love him back at the club, rogers made a boo boo letting him leave IMO. A great back up option who could genuinely push for No.1 spot.

Wrong, Von. I wanted BR gone but giving Reina the boot was one of the best decisions he ver made. The man was aweful for two years prior yet was taking the mick out of us boys saying he would either leave or stay while winking at Barcelona to come for him. If another player did that, you'd be on to of him like rash but because its Pepe, you give him a pass. He is old and no longer wanted here. Karius is the future, end of.

Pepe seemed to lose his desire IMO, a bit like Enrique but not as marked.
