Ed2 any truth that Watford would want 80 million for Sarr?

{Ed002's Note - No.}

Hi eds, have we spoken to Watford again about Sarr and do you think we will on board him this transfer window? Seems like a sensible signing to me and 40 million seems pretty reasonable. Thanks in advance.

{Ed002's Note - Traore might be easier.}

We’d be just as well keeping Origi as signing Traore, Origi has scored and created more goals in his career to date than Traore.

Maybe but not as good as Sarr. Have we spoken to Watford again or just paper talk? Thanks.

I thought Traore would be more than that tbh Ed mate and harder to prize away from Wolves?

{Ed002's Note - No.}

Ed002 what’s your opinion on the player, quality wise?

{Ed002's Note - I am by no means convinced he is what Liverpool want.}

Want or need? Come on eds, cards on the table. are we signing Sarr? 🤣.

Traore would probably take sitting on the bench more than Starr given he’s used to it at Wolves. Not sure how that would help his game improve though or are we going for a forward 5!

Freddie Starr might be a better signing.

No chance of Sarr.

Price being similar, would go for Sarr, higher ceiling, younger, friendship with Mane, should help him assimilate quicker, I actually think Klopp would turn him into the ball carrying (attacking) midfielder he's been looking for since he got here. He's spend on OX, Keita, Shaqiri and that position seems to have injury curse on it.

If we get Sarr or Traore, think Harvey Elliott is getting another loan.

They paid £30m for him apparently, not sure his stock is that much higher personally, £40m would seem fair.

The elephant in the room is that if it is Sarr, he is coming with a view to replace someone, likely Salah. The talk of long drawn out contractual negotiations is already abound, and with 2 years left and an agent like he has, this renewal is not going to be anywhere near as smooth as the others. I can see him going to PSG next year to replace Mbappe .

Spaceman, if Sarr comes it will be as as addition to our front 4 and not as anyone's replacement (unless it is squad players like Origi, Shaq, Taki) . And Klopp has always wanted another forward who is of a similar level to Jota who can challenge our front 3 and eventually replace them in the next 2-3 years, not immediately.
Salah's signing a new contract btw.

Morning ed2, hope your well.

Would Watford have any interest in Divok? Maybe something could be done? Personally i like Sarr, i thibk his potential would be a better investment and seems like a better impact player than Origi (althoughje has done well, excluding a dip last season) .
If we could shift the players no longer seen in klopps plans i think the squad has a good versatility to it. Still probably missing a box to box type player, but jones needs time to develop.

I think as a squad liverpool have a good collection of talent on their hands. A drop off from the first 11 is expected. People just need to relax and take what comes our way. The C.V.s been tough on a lot of clubs and we have had a good run with klopp at the club. When we look back, the club has definitely improved massively in results and even the quality of talent we are attracting in that time. long may it continue.

Thabks again ed2 and the rest 👍 best football site on the internet 👏.

{Ed002's Note - Watford have no interest in Origi.}

Agree Indian B - if someone like Sarr comes in, it’ll be with one eye on the future but doesn’t necessarily mean one of our front three moving on immediately.

I expect if something can be done with Shaqiri and Origi then one of these two will be joining.
