Tammy Abraham is videoed telling Trent that he's coming to us next season.
Not sure how serious he is. Do any of the Ed's know if there's anything to this?

He's 24.
Has scored goals in the c/ ship, the Prem and now Serie A.

{Ed002's Note - There is no agreement for TA to join Liverpool next season.}

It was tongue in cheek because of how many goals Trent created in the training session. Abraham would be a good signing though. I can't believe Chelsea sold him in favour of Havertz, Werner and Lukaku. He's better than all 3 of them.

{Ed001's Note - he really is not.}

Would like to see that video.

Thanks for the response.
Has Liverpool shown any recent interest in the player?

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of Liverpool ever showing interest in the player.}

hi eds, no agreement maybe but is there any interest.
i know we will be after a high profile signing to replace sadio and while i don't see a need to replace origi as we would have 5 attackers, reading between the lines is there any interest in maybe abraham or watfords joao pedro.

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of Liverpool ever showing interest in the player and Joao Pedro is in discussions with another club.}

MK he’s not better than Havertz, you’re having a laugh there mate. Havertz is a far superior footballer in every aspect of his game.

He didn’t actually say he was coming here, seemed more like a throwaway remark.

It'd be a strange one, he's very limited in his playing positions which Liverpool normally eschew, but he needs barely a sniff at goal to score, he gets into dangerous positions with barely any support but contributes nothing to the counter-press Liverpool use . On the face of it a very expensive Origi replacement.

I'm not having Havertz at all as a striker; midfielder maybe. Werner gets dizzy in the penalty box. Lukaku's attitude/ fitness is a disgrace.

I'd take Abraham all day if i'm picking one to lead the line.

{Ed001's Note - Abraham is just the same as Lukaku.}

He’s an average striker playing at his level in Rome. Not sure what anyone sees in him.

Havertz is phenomenal and a player I wish we had at LFC.

I personally think Havertz is the perfect Bobby replacement and would excel in that role under Jurgen.

A very intelligent footballer being stifled somewhat by Tuchel’s preference for boring football.

{Ed001's Note - I agree sm, he is a very good player. Unlike Abraham, who can trap a ball further than most of us can kick it.}

Havertz as a false nine would be a revelation in Klopp’s system, he’s quick, skilful, has tremendous vision and his first touch is exceptional. He’s also decent in the air too. Just a shame we’ll never see him in a Liverpool shirt.

I always feel that there is a lack of effort from Havertz, good player but can produce a lot more than he does.

I agree with Mighty Reds. I've never seen anybody describe Havertz as quick before this thread and I reckon Ian Rush would still press more even now.

I can see the Lukaku comparison ability wise but the difference is that Abraham isn't a stone overweight.

Ed001. I love it. Abraham can trap a ball further than most of us can kick it. Comedy gold. I trust you are not a fan?

{Ed001's Note - not in the slightest.}

Ed001, that’s Graham Potter and Havertz we’ve agreed on now. Quick say something nasty about me before people starting talking about us…. ;)

Although I reckon we’d definitely see a different output from Havertz were here under a progressive thinking coach like Potter and not a 0-0 merchant in Tuchel.

{Ed001's Note - exactly. Ooops another agreement.}

I'd take pulisic. Think under klopp he'd flourish and there's maybe a chance of that actually happening compared to havertz.

Havertz can play anywhere. One of the most naturally talented players in the world.

He would be perfect for LFC.

Just want to admire Ed001's response regarding Abraham's ability to trap a ball. that's got to go into some type of "Hall of Fame" comments. as is soo fitting. legend
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼.

Havertz actually does press quite intently imo. He does have that sort of Ozil/ Berbatov air about him, and he’s definitely not a Kante/ Henderson but he definitely busts a gut getting forward whenever I watch him. definitely hampered by Tuchel and the set up but so are all the Chelsea attack.
Can’t remember who said Tammy doesn’t need a lot of chances to score but they clearly never watched him under Lampard where he’d miss 2-3 chances from 5 yards out every game 😂 incredibly frustrating player.
