Hi Eds how are we all in the hot weather?
I have a question re Thiago, undoubtedly a quality player but I can't see us really being for him he's just to old for fsg to even consider it they've proved in the past that age isn't relevant if its the right player ie virgil, I just can't see Thaigo being in the same bracket as van dijk so question is in your opinions are the rumours a load of crap? Maybe if it was Thiago Almada I'd believe it but that's not what's being said

Cheers.

{Ed002's Note - Bayern Munich are convinced that Klopp has been discussing a move directly with the player. The club will want someone sold to pay for him an dit does not, as you say, sit right with them. But Klopp has done well so perhaps they will let him have his way if the money can be raised.}

He's 29. Too old? Bloody hell. I'm only a bit younger than that. I better check my pension pot!

If you think he's too old go and watch his highlight on BT sport of the Chelsea game this week where Kante couldn't get within 5 yards of him except when Thiago was tackling him. There's also an absolutely brutal 50/ 50 where Thiago comes out on top and the Chelsea player hits the floor 3 yards away from from where the challenge took place!

He looks fitter than ever and Chelsea's young and energetic high press were taken apart by him. It's on the BT sport social media pages. Watch it, then come back and tell me the man who made Kante look like Huddleston is too old.

Harvey, after reading your posts the past few weeks I'm fully convinced you're Thiago's agent :)

Hi Ed002, who do you think potentially could be sold to raise the funds needed to sign Thiago? Thank you.

{Ed002's Note - Keita might be an option. Grujic and Wilson might raise enough.}

Not trying to get you to discuss numbers, Ed002, but at 250K a week for a 29 year old, wouldn't that make him the highest earner at Liverpool? Does any of the current players earn that much?
I just don't know how this is going to work!

{Ed002's Note - I understand it would.}

HMB, you say at éç Thiago is only a bit older than you. So tell me, are you a professional footballer whose body has taken a beating via injuries and the demands of the sport at the highest level like Thiago has in his career or like TheUnbearables said, his agent? Just asking for a friend, lol.

I really like Thaigo, but averaging only 20 games per season over the last 10 years or so, but put a huge dampener on buying him for me.
However I do see him as a vast upgrade on Gini and Adam Llalana.
I think hr would be great along side Fabinho in a 4 2 3 1 formation.
When your 2 can win the ball and pick a pass it means that you can attack with your 3-1 along with wing backs.
Now who do we have to play the Lone Striker?
Answers on a postcards please.
