Hey there eds, I was wondering if we have any interest still in tarkowski as I remember Klopp fancied him a while back and with him not being happy at Burnley weather interest would be reconsidered?

Also what is your view on Lewis dunk? Do you think he would cut it with us? Or is he at his level at Brighton?

{Ed002's Note - Tarkowski is valued at £50M by Burnley and that put off West Ham who were prepared to pay £30M in the summer. Dunk has just signed a new contract and Liverpool has no interest.}

Unless we’re going to buy a CB who can genuinely challenge Gomez, or is a considerable upgrade, there’s little point in it for me. Particularly 50mil for a mediocre prem level CB.

That’s a hell of a lot for tarkowski, looks like we will be scanning across Europe again.

Thanks.

I’m sure the club has an extensive list of CBs already considering we wanted one in the summer.

Gabriel from arsenal was good value post C.V. maybe we can pick up a handy defender for around that mark if there is cash .

Tarkowski? Really? Is this where we’re at? I’d rather play Phillips quite frankly. Tarkowski is certainly no better than our current options and HE IS A DYED IN THE WOOL UNITED FAN AND THEREFORE HAS NO BUSINESS PLAYING FOR US.

Sorry 6times but the notion we should never consider a player who is a die hard utd fan is nothing short of childish.

As long as when they put on the Liverpool shirt they care only about a Liverpool win, who cares?

Are you honestly telling me that if Mbappe, Haaland wanted to come to Liverpool but we’re die hard UTd fans, you’d say no thanks? Get a grip mate.

Aren't we interested in Bremer? Brazilian left footed defender at Torino.

I don't think it'll be Upamecano, as his 40m release clause only kicks in next summer. Ben White is going to be too expensive and he's only just signed a new contract. Also Kabak, but he just seems a bit too rash for my liking.

{Ed002's Note - Everton has an interest in Gleison Bremer - Carlo Ancelotti tried to take him to Napoli and could try again - but a Work Permit could be an issue unless paying over the odds. I am not aware of any interest from Liverpool at this time.}

Thank you Ed002. Have a great day.

You mean like carragher was a die hard evertonian?

Tarkowski who has yet to sign a new contract with Burnley? if LFC are interested then the data scientist would have done their homework and they have been pretty good so far with spotting players, just need Naby lad to pull his finger out and put in some decent performances but there is allowed an exception to the rule and I have been a Naby supporter but his past 3 games were disappointing . even for me.

LFC have shown interest in Tarkowski for a couple years now from what I can remember, but I don't see how our situation is so dire that we need to shell out a large sum for a full-time CB, unless an opportunity comes up where we can add that automatic starter partner for VVD that Klopp has been searching for. Basically, we are staying the course unless an unlikely situation comes up, so everyone should just be prepared to watch this team battle and stay the course.

I know I am in the minority here, but I think there is plenty of depth to cover CB with Matip, Fabinho, Hendo, Gini, Phillips, Rhys Williams, and maybe even Milner. Injuries are a part of football, and sometimes you get hit hard, but I don't think this is anything we can't handle.

No guarantee big Virgil comes back anywhere near as good after his injury, I genuinely hope I'm wrong here though, he's also not far off 30 so it could be a replacement in a year or two/ partner that's needed.

We're talking about different things here. I don't think LFC needs to shell out big money right now to fill a gap is all that I am saying. I think looking at someone to play CB alongside him for the long-term is worth exploring beyond the 20/ 21 season, but spending significant dollars in january does not make sense to me, especially since we've deferred much of the cash outlay on our summer of 2020 moves to future periods. We have to be careful.

Whether a player who happens to be a fan of a rival team has business playing for us or not is a mute point. A die hard UTD fan would not play for Liverpool and vice versa. Plus, whilst I don’t know this for fact, I doubt many players think like this which is why most players don’t stay at one club their whole career regardless of loyalties which will ebb and flow when the game to them is a career rather than a passionate pastime like it is for us. Do any of you think Jay Spearing still loves the club? Or Jack Robinson? Connor Coady? Gerrard a cousin whatever his name was? Etc etc.

Ben White that’s who we should look at.

Tarkowski is just not good IMO. Dunk average. White young, probably expensive but decent and performing well in the Prem.
