Hey Eds. Matip today has been linked with PSG with report mentioning they're considering him as Silva's replacement. Have you heard anything on that front?

{Ed002's Note - No, sorry.}

Why would he go there. He is class, like gomez. Liverpool are one of the biggest clubs in the world. PSG are really half a club in comparison.

He’d be difficult (and expensive) to replace as he is a good centre back, unless PSG are offering completely stupid money then it’s an easy “no”.

Because he’s not a starter at the moment, and might be there and probably get twice the money - not saying it’s happening but it’s not inconceivable.

Studoc Money Money Money and he would be first choice. He would win medals every season without fail.

ed001 if it is true and psg are going to offer £50m for Matip what do you think. I would snatch there hand off nothing about the players ability just how much he gets injured. I see it say Matip has missed over 60 matches over a total of eight various injuries since joining in 2016.

{Ed001's Note - take it, you have to when the player is so injury prone. Sad to lose him because he has improved so much into a top class defender, but it is pointless keeping hold of a player you can't rely on to stay fit.}

50mill surly not!

Maybe the club are thinking lovren and matip leaving could free up the funds for Diego Carlos. Hopefully Carlos would stay fit long enough to play the numbers of games matip and lovren played.

Lol 50mill for matip. For a player that's rarely fit we should take the money and run. Buy DC and maybe even squeeze for Lloyd kelly.

Jordz, that is the way i see it. Whilst i rate Matip highly, both he and JG are injury prone, and so should a decent offer come in from PSG, i would take it and buy Carlos.
If we brought in Kelly to replace Lovren, and Carlos as a starter, we would have, probably the best defence in the world.

For 50 million I would bite there arm and leg right off take the money and dash away as quickly as possible .

spaceman I would not say Joe Gomez is injury prone just had a coupe of bad injuries where Matip seem to pick up injuries every time he he gets a run in the team.

When you put it in terms of £50m then it’s harder to say no to be honest, as that’s the bulk of the cost of Diego Carlos.

Are we sure this isn't a typo and it's actually £5m 🤔.

Doubt its a typo. Matip is a world club champion, European champion and Premier league champion so worth 50mill.

Ligue 1 probably suits Matip better in that it is less physical and more technical. And the new Missus probably finds Paris to be more romantic.

I doubt the rumour is true though, because 50 Million is quite generous. I'd take even 30 Million and spend it on a 23-24 year old and secure the next 4-5 years for the same position (in competition with Gomez) . Important thing is to find a backup for VVD since Lovren is gone (he played on the left for Southampton remember? )

Lovern was a world club champion, a European champion and a premier league champion. How come the club didn't get £50m for him?

I won't sell matip for 50 million unless we are 100% sure to get in 1st team defender in.
