If so. let’s get behind him and don’t start him off with setting him up to fail with the barrage of negativity. anyone ever thought this is part of the reason not many of our GK’s succeed?!?

Soon find out I suppose.


3.) 03 Jul 2018

Totally agree c3883r, if he does sign, let's get behind him.

Interesting, this rumours has been doing the rounds on Twitter but James Pearce has refuted it.


5.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 18:28:33
If it's true and it is the goal keeper we sign then let's suport him. Klopp obviously rates him and u trust in Klopp. Thanks for the info Macca. YNWA.

Great to hear from you Macca! Thank you.

Isn't he a bit short?


8.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 18:36:45
I'll support him and i trust Klopp! Just a bit dissapointed from what i've seen of him. That was mostly a few years ago in fairness.


9.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 18:40:18
Could you be wrong, Macca?


10.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 18:43:10
To be fair I used to rate him, I'll get behind any signing. Ynwa.


11.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 18:45:50
Thanks for the info, Macca. If he joins, of course we support him, but I would say he is no better a 'keeper than Butland.


12.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 18:48:03
Really hope he proves me wrong, im sure VVD and Wignaldum have talked well of him. doesn't look like it will be an extortionate fee either.


13.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 19:18:52
Interesting Macca. Especially as its been dismissed down the page.


14.) 03 Jul 2018

Regardless of the player, always great to hear from you Macca.

Thanks for the info.

trust klopp? didn't he choose karius, he's the lad half this forum say isn't good enough.


16.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 19:10:37
He’s not a top class keeper by any stretch. Same mistake we always make and I’d we pay £30m, we’ll be mugged. Makes all the mistakes that Mignolet and Karius get slaughtered for.


17.) 03 Jul 2018

9pm announcement.

Is that a 9pm announcement to bury the bad news?


22.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 19:53:06
I’m disappointed in the club if they sign him- not because of the lad because, but in karius I still believe he is the best option in today’s market. But hey, as long as we shell out many millions that we really can’t afford so the hate mongers will be happy then I suppose it’s a good day right? I might add that as much as klopp has made some right moves and I think he’s a very good manager, he did drop mignolet about 6 months too late and kind of screwed around ward.


23.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 19:53:28
I'm fine aslong as it's not more than 20 million.

That's not the greatest move though.


24.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 19:57:04
What I will say is city smashed the world record for a goal keeper and won he league.

If we signed someone of top quality for 60 million you can get 10 or more years from a keeper so it's 6 mil a year to have you go position sorted. Not bad e. g.


25.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 20:52:10
Thanks for the info Macca, let's see how this one goes.


26.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 21:19:02
Macca, love ya to bits mate, but hope you’re wrong.

{Ed002's Note - You want to be his Jones Crusher?}

Nah, it’s ok ed002. I’ll dodge that if it’s all the same!

You no anything of it Ed?

{Ed001's Note - nope.}


29.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 22:27:17
lol. ill get behind him. until he's crap like migs and karius.


30.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 22:42:13
This fella literally posts whatever is on twitter (Graeme Kelly) . Pearce refuted this within the hour, said rumours are nonsense. Even Kelly used it in passing as 3rd party, unreliable as ever.


31.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 22:58:52
Ed’s would he be coming in as a number would you think?

{Ed002's Note - A number?}


32.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 22:55:41
If we all get behind him it will make the goal a lot smaller and he will get more clean sheets 👍.


33.) 03 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 23:04:10
Hi ed have you heard any whispers about cillessen? Has there even been talks with Barcelona?

{Ed002's Note - Macca has told you is is meant to be at Melwood.}


34.) 04 Jul 2018
03 Jul 2018 23:43:20
Kloppsboss city did not smash the world record for a keeper, that is still buffon, but is proof you can get a good keeper without paying 60-80m, but seemingly our brilliant scouts can't find one,


35.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 06:01:51
I posted a GK breakdown on the 31st May and said that it looks like it will be Cillessen that we end up with and enquiries and conversations have begun. Not my first choice but I’m not a manager so in Klopp I trust.


36.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 06:23:31
Thanks macca all news is good news.


37.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 07:53:13
Cillessen is worse than what we already have and he has barely played any meaningful football in two years, we should not even consider him an option, he’s poor on crosses, he is poor on penalties (substituted at a penalty shoot out for the Netherlands no less), his decision making is suspect, his handling is poor and he has all the presence of a carrier bag blowing in the wind. We would be better saving £30m and giving Karius and Ward a chance, Cillessen would not be a starter at any of the other top teams in this country and at 29 he is not suddenly going to get better.


38.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 08:03:00
Ed1 have you seen this lad play much? if so is there any chance you could add him to your player profile list please? I have only seen him play a handful of times so can't really have an opinion on him.

StraightTalk, ridiculous post, that is all.

{Ed001's Note - I have seen him a fair bit years ago, but he has barely played first team football over the last season or two, so it would be based on old observations of him. I will add him to the list anyway.}


39.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 08:13:41
Thanks Ed mate, appreciated.

{Ed001's Note - very welcome.}


40.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 08:28:05
You would assume if this is correct that he would be coming to back up/ challenge karius if he has barely played in the last two seasons?


41.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 08:50:34
£30m is a lot to play back up.


42.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 09:21:47
Remember the old "i, double s, i, double s, i, double p, i" mnemonic from school so you could remember how to spell Mississippi?
It works similarly with Cillessen too - 'i, double l, e, double s, e'.

Mind you, I have a fantastic picture of the Kop singing "give me a C, give me an I, and then a long pause before the song peters out, haha.


43.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 09:44:27
Got to be honest I’d prefer Butland.

Cillessen looks like he’s cut from the same cloth as Karius and Mignolet i. e. springs on the palms of his hands and looks like you could do him a serious injury if you sneeze in the box.


44.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 10:28:43
At 6'1", Cillessen would be one of the shortest keepers in the EPL. Not sure how important height to a GK performance. All I can say is that Cillessen looks like a little boy when compared to De Gea or Courtois.


45.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 11:09:18
PowerLFC if his performances for Barca, Ajax and Netherlands are anything to go by we will be in trouble any time a ball comes into the box.


46.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 11:41:00
I think if he was in fact there, we’d of heard something by now.

{Ed002's Note - From whom?}


47.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 12:35:17
From you Ed002 lol, you would no about it surely by now mate and shared it with us?

{Ed002's Note - Macca has told you about him supposedly being at Melwood. I am not going to be played off against Macca again.}


48.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 13:07:57
Well Jimbo's said it's hogwash. So I guess Macca was mistaken.


49.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 13:18:10
Faor enough Ed002. Appreciate what your saying mate.


50.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 14:34:15
Always appreciate Macca's posts but hope this one is way off. We're deluded if we think he is an upgrade on what we have. Isn't this the keeper van gaal subbed for penalties a few years back and preferred Tim Krul!?
Feel like we have missed a trick with the likes of Rui Patricio going on a free to Wolves and we're paying £20+ million for a lad who has warmed the bench at Barcelona for 2 seasons.
Disappointing if true.
J.

{Ed002's Note - Patricio wasn't free.}


51.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 14:55:19
The club? If he was in fact at melwood, he would be having a medical wouldn’t he? So I’d of thought the day after the club would of announced it.

{Ed002's Note - It doesn't really work like that.}


52.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 15:45:30
It looks like the disagrees have it by a nose. (Not one of the more popular Macca posts unfortunately)


53.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 15:58:04
Ah ok no problems Ed2, in your opinion do you think it will happen?

{Ed002's Note - I am not the one to ask this question of.}


54.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 16:53:51
No problem mate, appreciate it anyway.


55.) 04 Jul 2018
04 Jul 2018 17:55:01
Why would he be at melwood also bit ironic how this was all over Twitter first.
