Hi Ed 01 or Ed 02, have we actually dropped our interest in Chilwell?

Sometimes I do not wanna agree with Ed 02 about Klopp but the signing like Caulker and GW makes me rethink. Please God hope its not true.

{Ed002's Note - There is interest but an unwillingness to pay the asking price.}

Eds realistically, are we actually faced with the prospect of Moreno being our first choice left back this season?

Because if that is the case, something somewhere in the anfield coaching department/ managerial team/ higher archy is wrong.

It's been well documented everywhere about Moreno's faults, he has been personally responsible for a number of goals, most notably in the Europa league final.

If this is the case it is a statement to lfc fans about the lack of our ambition.

(P. s) I am anticipating your reply will be more critical of my support for the player and team in general which I accept and understand.

Who would you like to see Lfc sign for that left back position because as far I can see there are limited proven choices available?

Anyone defensive first. Even a loan of a 30-33 yesr old to get us through this season until chilwell price comes down next year.

If Klopp thinks that Moreno can improve on his performances from last season then that's good enough for me, he`s still young so heres hoping.

There are plenty of proven left backs, who could well be persuaded to join LFC, for some reason we believe we don't have to pay high prices for good players. However extortionate for mediocre players.

kolasinac
Hector*
Gaya
Erkin
Bernant

All Left backs better than Moreno.

I'm not paid thousands of pound to scrutinise players, so opinion doesn't matter! Lfc management is s paid big money to do this and if it is beyond they're capacity to sort this problem, what does that say!

But Moreno is poor, so very poor. Even a mediocre left-back would be a huge improvement because he has been such a liability. It would be absolute incompetence to start the season with Moreno as 1st choice left-back.

Maybe the Eds can give a better list of LBs out there. There good ones out there it is just going to cost a lot more money if you want someone proven. When we purchased Moreno couple of years ago everyone was excited, especially after the goal scorer against Tottenham.

I mentioned Eder Alvarez Balanta, he is a CB, but can play any where along the back four. He also just moved to FC Basel.

Ghoulam from Napoli who is pretty good.

Jonas Hector, Ricardo Rodriguez and Jose Gaya, but in those you are getting into the 20m plus range.

Its all very much quoting LB's who are better than Moreno but it may be the likes of Jonas Hector simply don't want to come. Klopp has made it clear he only wants those who buy into the programme. So I don't think this has anything to do with money. If a top player becomes available and wants to come we will pay the price.

Albeit in a lesser division, the bits I saw of Chilwell excited me like when watching Gomez for first time. I hope we get him!

I wouldn't agree that there are plenty of quality LBs available to Liverpool. We don't have all that much draw to quality players and Klopp doesn't want to spend big on an average LB to only have to buy another in a years time if were playing my CL. I would rather we just stick with Moreno and Gomez (or even Clyne) for this season, make CL and buy a properly quality LB for £20m next season. Any opinion on that eds?

I like Jonathan silva but much like Moreno his defensive duties tend to come second to a more supporting role p.

Can't we just tap this Chilwell up? 😉.

Assfg, how will you make CL with a young inexperienced and injury prone CB at LB and a completely awful defender an ATM for goals like Moreno?

How do we know he's not going to play Flanno or Gomez at left back next season? How do we know if Moreno only played there last season because there was no other option? There's too many people these days who think they know better than the highly experienced staff who are paid millions to make these decisions. Just relax, it'll be alright on the night.

Why dun we go for Ryan Bertrand then?

Everyone seems to forget flanno can play there and we have brad smith.

Moreno isn't the best but if a player doesn't want to come we can't sign them.

Sure thing. Another Southampton player. Didn't take that long for one of their players to be mentioned.

Bertrand is a decent left back, doesn't get found wanting defensively and is capable going forward.
