Ed, is it true we are trying to hijack chelsea's move for both moses and azpilicueta ?! {Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware.}


Do u honestly think we could hijack any players signing for Chelsea.cos I don't think so


We can't compete with Chelsea for targets im afraid


Can see your point, but with the talent Chelsea have, perhaps we could offer more starts. Having said that, there are a lot of players that would appear to be happy to take the money and sit on the bench.


Actually, why aren't we looking at Moses? He is decent, can score goals and is a British. Why not?


Yes let's offer £20m for Moses since his value is around £9m because we are lfc

I've been told today that we are showing an interest in Greizman, is this just a recycling of an old story Ed?

Chris in Tamworth {Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware Chris. Athletico Madrid, Valencia, Marseille and Lyon have shown some interest in Griezmann in the recent past and repordedly Barcelona tool a look at one time, but there is nothing of note right now. The kid has said that he has no plans to leave Spain this summer but I suspect a decent cash offer may be of interest to his club.}


Is this the real Chris in Tamworth?

Dr S. Atire.


Doubt it, 12 goals in 58 goals says he's overrated and at 18m overpriced. Not what we need.


Hi ed002, gutted 2 see uv transferred from the Chelsea site, feels like losing a star player! Before the abuse starts I think Rodgers will do good, it will take him a couple of seasons but I think he'll go on to be a top manager just hope he gets the time

CFC86


Please let this be true chris please

Liverpool are ready to re-enter negotiations to sign Uruguayan international Gaston Ramirez after it was revealed that the Bologna youngster's move to Southampton has fallen through. Having previously baulked at meeting the Serie A side's asking price for the 21 year old, Brendan Rodgers has been given the board's backing ahead of a £18m bid for the talented starlet.

It had looked like the Saints had secured the £12.8m signing of the Bologna midfielder but that deal has seemingly stalled and left the door open for other offers and Rodgers is keen to register his interest in the hopes of making Ramirez his fourth summer signing in the next few days.


Caught offside ?
Lfclee


Why would Liverpool pay 18m when Southampton were going to pay 12.8 ?


How do you go from an accepted £12.8million bid to an £18million bid -
for £18million, i would much rather see liverpool go for Clint Dempsey £8mil and Adam Johnson £10mil


Too risky, he's owned by a third party, could be a Tevez thing all over again.

Sooty.


Why would we pay more


Why would Liverpool bid £18m for a player who has previously had a £12.5m bid accept for?

Have we brought Camolli back? Is Rick Parry working on the deal?

Some of this stuff makes me wee a little bit as I. Laugh.


Here we go again. If we're true to form the next post will say that the Dempsey thing is back on too. Keeps us all interested, I suppose.


Why would we pay £18m is someone else had £12m agreed??? {Ed002's Note - They didn't.}


So why would we bid £18m when Saints got a deal for £11.8m agreed with his club? {Ed002's Note - They didn't.}


If Southampton agreed a 12m deal with Bologna, why wouldliverpool have to pay 18m? {Ed002's Note - They didn't.}


This again?
DAni


Guy it's. news this would be 8th bid according to bullcrap!


The Saints deal collapsed because the £12.8mil was rejected ... It wasn't enough.


To be fair to the post the Southampton figure of 12.5 was never agreed and this is what the saints offered and what I amhearing is that a second offer of 15m was on the cards but that is how far saints would go..the price is 18m for us or spurs


I think you will find the fee was not agreed by bolognia the only supposed agreement was between saints and ramirez.not his club. they said no way was that enough money to entice them to sell him.


Reading to much of caught offside good player looks like we are skint, not a happy
chappy with our transfer policy this season
I think we will end up in the same position as last season sorry to say. Miles behind you know who and believe the Blue noses have signed better.


They've mixed their currencies up is all £12.8M is over 16M Euros which was Bolognas asking price wasn't it? Ged


The bid was never accepted they have been quite clear on the amount they want


Just to clarify, the player's agent accepted the bid from Southampton, not the player's club, hence it was rejected. Bologna wanted closer to £18 million for him. So we are not paying more than Southampton because their bid wasn't accepted in the first place!

Biggy Balls


Copied and paste of caught offside was it?


I think we need to finally all understand that this Ramirez to Liverpool rumour is just that: a rumour without base...


The deal with saints was never accepted.


He is owned by a third party? Eds? {Ed002's Note - A previous club still have partial ownership of the player.}


On a rethink,he(gaston)could actually be the playmaker we've been wanting...just saying


I'll give it to Ramirez's agent. He's really talking up his player. He's never out of the news but I suspect he's going no-where. It's one of those "he's trying too hard" stories.

MarkB.


Who was the Third signing?? {Ed002's Note - Assaidi.}


 

 

21 Aug 2012 18:08:56
Heard that we're gonna make a bid of 2million for David goodwillie of Blackburn, eds you heard anything? {Ed002's Note - Nope.}


If he can't shine in Blackburn, I don't think he can shine in Liverpool


Goodwillie couldn't get in the Blackburn team last season. Wtf, id be very disappointed if this was to happen.

Veedub.


Did not hear about Goodwillie, but I heard no one liked Ivor Badcock. They took one look at him and decided he wasn't up for it....


Never trust anyone that cant spell 'great'


Oh come on!!


Good player plenty of potential would be a relatively good signing and has pace and tricky with a good shot


God I hope not, went watching Blackburn vs chorley in a pre season friendly n he was awful


If they sign both butland and goodwillie, I may die laughing.

John CT


What a joke, the same player who scored 2 goals in the whole of last season


Back to your own blue forum my Goodson chum me thinks!


That should help with the penetration we currently lack.


That's right goodwillie is coming, could get very messi.


Not with a name like that ! its a good job his first name isnt IVOR


Are you for real?!


Jackanory jackanory ... in other news ... my dear old dead grandad came to me in a dream and told me that LFC are in talks with Ed's 1 and 2 as our main strike force so why do we need the likes of Goodwillie when those two Titans of terror will be wrecking defences with their silky skills?


 

 

21 Aug 2012 17:31:17
Eds what do you think about kevin kuranyi if he is available I no he is a good player scored a lot in Germany and is going so in Russia personally I think he could be a grate buy for Liverpool

Thanks josh {Ed002's Note - Kuranyi must be in his 30s now and I doubt he will leave Moscow this summer particularly with Dan Petrescu arriving as their new manager.}


21 Aug 2012 22:14:35
What has Dan Petrescu gotta do with it? But agree in the chances {Ed002's Note - So you don't think a manager has any influence over players?}


 

 

21 Aug 2012 17:36:26
Hi eds.Any news about Theo Walcott and do we have any chance to sign him at the moment? {Ed006's Note - I think it may kick Arsenal into sorting his contract out. We will see.}


Theo in January (correct me if im wrong) wanted to leave Arsenal if Robin Van Persie left the club, or maybe he was trying to hint at a pay-rise?


Lets face facts, we can't offer him cl football. we probably can't offer him a pay rise. if he has left because of lack of ambition from arsenal (the selling of rvp) then he is simply not even going to consider us. face facts, we cannot attract players like this anymore.


 

 

21 Aug 2012 16:33:31
His Ed's is it true that Liverpool want kaka? {Ed052's Note - We might want him, but we wont be getting him. I doubt we will move for him either}


Kaka (Cack-ka) is passed it has done nothing for years!! Total waste of money he would not be able to handle the pace of the premiership!


TO the reply above: but if we got him you'd wet your pants!?


Kaka would be Joe Cole mark 2


Correct we may want him but there's no way owners will stump up wages he would demand.. Wages owners willing to pay will turn lfc into a everton type club until we are pulling a lot more revenue. Even then I'd not think they would change there policy, I do not think moneyball can work in the premiership.


He would sell shirts unlike our other signings. Would be a nice thought if he could bring his old self, but hey we're lfc and we cannot attract or afford good players anymore.


Has someone genuinely had the audacity to compare Joe Cole to Kaka.


Ha.. He's going to Blackburn!

This is my first post, I'm not gonna claim to be an itk however I live and work in east Durham where Adam Johnson is from. I spoke to a lad from easington who knows his family and he believes Adams preferred destination is spurs. He doesn't believe sunderland is an option( even though that's his boyhoood team). Not saying we can't get him, we may offer a better deal or spurs might lose interest.


Imagine spurs going for a player that we're interested in!

They must have no scouts only a bloke that reads the gossip pages and think well if Liverpool are interested then we should try and buy him!

Kenny the Red


I can confirm this, I know AJ family friends & he was interested in joining spurs, but at the time he wanted to work with arry.

Jimbob


Dont need him heard he lazy


If you did know someone that actually knew him, he would know AJ is a Newcastle fan despite most of his family supporting Sunderland.
Not peeing on anyones bonfire here, just pointing it out.


 

 

21 Aug 2012 15:18:01
Hi Ed's - Fiorentina seem to be actively looking for another striker (i have heard Berbatov), does this mean they are willing / expecting Jovetic to leave? or are they looking for a partner to play ahead of Jovetic? either way have Liverpool retained interest in the player? or has he now become out of our price range / availability
Thanks in Advance Ed's - TheMrTuray {Ed002's Note - Arsenal, Roma, Napoli and Spurs did show previous interest in Jovetic, but Manchester City, Chelsea and Juventus remain interested if the price is acceptable. At this time it seems most likely he will stay in Florence after bids from Juventus and Manchester City have been rejected. I think it would take a very significant bid to change that. There is no interest from Liverpool that I know of.}


If Jovetic does arrive in England, City are favourites to land him.

THE SUMON VAI


I remember he was one of our main targets when benitez was in charge, doubt it now to be honest, id say we wouldnt have a hope even if we did bid for him :/


 

 

21 Aug 2012 14:33:51
Ed002 please could you tell me if Afellay is still set to leave Barca? {Ed002's Note - I think future chances at Barcelona may be limited and although Afellay is keen to stay, it looks like Barcelona will now make him available. Zenit, Dortmund and Schalke have a declared interest in the player and Italy looks like another option available to him (although Inter have said they are no longer interested). There may be interest from the likes of Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs and Newcastle. A move to Lille has already been rejected.}


 

 

21 Aug 2012 14:28:41
Hey ed002..Hope everything's good..
What's your take on Adam Johnson? As of today, have we enquired or put in a bid for him?
Answer appreciated as always. Cheers, Scouserseb {Ed002's Note - At present the only bid I understand to have been made has come from Sunderland.}


Okey, cheers..Do you reckon that we will make more signings before the window slams shut? And who is likely to join? Cheers, Scouserseb {Ed002's Note - As I have said repeatedly you can expect one or two in and out.}


FSG have no real money, it's ridiculous that most of the LFC fans can't see it. And this argument that they saved the club is a joke too because several other bids were made for the club it's just that Martin choose to go with them. FSG will never turn LFC into the club they once were, the fans need to wake up FSG don't have the anywhere near enough money to compete in the Premiership they are totally out their depth. LFC are supposed to be one of the biggest clubs in the world. Want to blame someone, blame David Moores who could of sold the club to Sheikh Mohammed and DIC who are worth an estimated 80 billion and he's a Liverpool fan! But instead Moores sold the club to Hicks and Gillett and now look at us stuck with more Americans who see the club as a business and nothing else. It's sad to see such a great club like ours fall to far from the top. FSG OUT! Sell up we don't want you. DIC and Sheikh Mohammed IN.


 

 

21 Aug 2012 14:22:31
Look's like another bargain basement deal could be on the way with BR ready to bid £2.75 million on Omar El Kaddouri from Brescia.
LFC will side step Dempsey because of the amount wanted by Fulham and make enquiries as regard this player.
Napoli and Parma (and interestingly Fulham as Dempsey's replacement) have been tracking the playing since the end of the Olympics but a bid is expected from Liverpool in the next 24 hours.

Didnt get go to parma? {Ed002's Note - He rejected Parma because of rumoured interest from Juve.}


We have more than enough players who can't find the net.
Lancelot


Hello Ed,
Any truth in what the original poster has said. are we interested in him ? {Ed052's Note - Possibly I guess, only just because we might sign a surprise player like Assaidi.}


Google search suggests Fulham bid yesterday (?).


Who on earth is he, is he a winger,striker,midfielder, defender or keeper and does anyone know enough about him to say whether he`s any good or not


"Who on earth is he, is he a winger,striker,midfielder, defender or keeper and does anyone know enough about him to say whether he`s any good or not"

Did you try finding out yourself via the internet? Nope ... use your brain!

Speculative punt at Joe Cole to QPR, as suggested by a few, by end of transfer window, what with Barton possibly off to Marseille?

Welsh Steve


With him out for the next month or so because of his hamstring problems continuing, I bet we're stuck with him until January at least. Just hope he can get a few decent games in that time so he's sellable then.

RedNorwegian.


Cole is out for a month injured so it ain't gonna happen unfortunately


I really hope your right!!
2009 Captain


Probably wishful thinking on my part!

Welsh Steve


So Barton is off to join the Foreign Legion.. That's prob for the best, they'll be able to straighten him out..


Would happily give him a piggy back ride there myself. What a shocking waste of money he is!


 

 

21 Aug 2012 14:13:24
Hello Ed's. Keep up the good work and keep the faith Reds. Any truth to the Kaka to LFC rumors today ? {Ed002's Note - No.}


 

 

21 Aug 2012 14:03:40
Rumours circulating that Liverpool have put in an offer for Adam Johnson today

M


Eds, Is it true? Are we trying to bring him in anfield? {Ed052's Note - Possible}


How can it be kept so private? I don't think it's true. AJ has been attracting the media for a long time. Assaidi rumours were suppressible but I don't think the same can be said about the AJ ones.

THE SUMON VAI


Really can't see this happening unless he's willing to take a big pay cut (which seems pretty unlikely). Isn't he on near-Gerrardlike wages?


Liverpool are not interested in Johnson according to the liverpool echo, its all just rumours.

If AC goes expect LFC to make a move for Benfica's Oscar Cardozo.
His agent has been told he can leave and BR believe's he would be an ideal addition to the team.
vrcomp
Y.N.W.A.


I also rate him very much.hope u r rite.
Indian Rajiv


We will buy a 29 years old player...nice.


This would be a very smart addition. Good, cheap goal scorer.


Isn't cordoza just an older carroll?


So the same type of player as Carroll but with less potential and at the age of 29, B.S


Nope imo Nolito is on LFC's radar...


Look lets get this right. We would all like to see £30+ million players come to LFC. Young and athletic that can play football. But until we get Champions league football its not going to happen. BR has to buy players at the right price that can get us in the top 4 THEN go and buy the better quality players.
vrcomp
Y.N.W.A.


His goal scoring record is impressive and consistent. He could feed off play makers like suarez, allen, gerrad and assidi ( hopefully)


Cordoza.....he looks loke a James Bond baddie!! Let's get him!!


Oscar Cardozo would be a great signing. Dunno why people worry about him being 29? How old's Dempsey? Exactly!


Dempsey=league proven and can play anywhere in attack
or
cardozo= who isnt league proven and would cost more


Actually it has been proven thqt cardozo can play in a league


Oscar Cardozo is a great player and i hope he signs faor LFC.

HI Edd, Havnt posted before but havnt had gossip before so slate me please! Certain rumours are abound that we have enquired regarding Kakas availibility,If Modric does move to RM then his options will be even less. Utd are obviously still in the hunt but we could offer him more game time which is what he craves! I know we were linked earlier and this will get some stick but its what iv been told JonnyAnfield YNWA EXPAND ANFIELD {Ed002's Note - Kaka is available but Liverpool has not enquired.}


Please Please Please join utd... not another clown on about Kaka...Has Been!!


I've read elsewhere we are interested in Kaka. BR mentioned a 'star' signing. Hope this star isn't Assaidi, glad we got him and Allen but neither are STARS?


Click-manchester.com reports we are favourites to sign him on loan ahead of United, but i don't know how reliable there journalists are.
vrcomp
Y.N.W.A.


We were also favorites to sign Sahin at one point...not sure why Kaka would pick Liverpool over Man U as it is. {Ed002's Note - Not a choice to be made - there is no interest from either club.}


We could never pay his wages , plus ask yourself why Maureen wants rid of him so badly.


 

 

21 Aug 2012 13:17:37
Any news on sahin need to move fast 10 days left need pace wingers and goal poacher.

regards
kop it {Ed002's Note - Fazeli has confirmed that subject to the completion of the paperwork Sahin will move to Arsenal with them paying all of his wages (2.8M euro) plus they will pay a fee to Real Madrid for the loan. There is no option to buy at the end of the loan. Liverpool, Besiktas and Galatasaray also put bids on the table but the player's preference was always Arsenal.}


How in this crazy universe does a foreign player desire Arsenal over Liverpool. Arsenal are no where near as popular overseas. We need top four badly. I hope we destroy them at Anfield.


Overseas players dont care about history anymore its the present and the champions league. arsenal will finish 4th this season and liverpool will be sixth unless we sign players fast


I would imagine that the player favours Arsenal as there are not as many centre mids at Arsenal compared to the amount currently on our books. Especially with Song leaving, Sahin would probably be a replacement for him.


Sahin is not song's replacement. He is more of a temp cover for wilshere. This is not a fuff between lfc and arsenal, rather it is the diff between an exp and famous manager and a young novice One. I fully suport BR but in the transfer market he shid jave been assisted by an exp dof. I do not see any realistic hope for signing quality players frpm continent who would suit br's style.


 

 

21 Aug 2012 13:13:27
Ed002 have Liverpool made an enquiry to Lisandro Lopez? Is he now a preferred option to Dempsey and do you expect him to be available? {Ed002's Note - No approach has been made, I simply suggested he might be an option. Regardless of what others say, I would still not discount Dempsey moving to Anfield.}


 

 

21 Aug 2012 13:05:05
Hi eds. I've just seen that Inter have told Maicon he can leave the San Siro. Is there any possibility that we could make a move for him? Do you think this would be a good move if Agger goes? Please please post this as all my other posts don't make it. LFC Lover {Ed002's Note - Maicon is a right back - Agger a centre back. He won't be moving to Liverpool.}


If all you post are as dum as this, it not wounder they dont make it


I think we've just seen why your other posts don't make it! Dave D


Mate fsg a tryin to reduce the age of squad an if u ever watched football would no maicon is an attackin right bk not a centre bk hello


OMG....i wonder how many of these posts don't make it, i feel for the eds


Maicon can play anywhere on the right side, along with Johnson. If he did end up at LFC, which I doubt anyway, then we could use Kelly along side Marty. We also have Coates and Wilson knocking about, as well as some promising youngsters. I think Johnson would be more suited to RM with Maicon RB.

But all that is irrelevant as I think Man Utd would be favourites in the EPL if Maicon became available.


 

 

21 Aug 2012 12:42:09
hi eds do you think we will sign a johnson

great site
mark b {Ed002's Note - There has to be a decent chance.}


Ed002 - would you sign A Johnson in your opinion? Tks TD


Ed002 - would you sign A Johnson in your opinion? Tks TD {Ed002's Note - No.}


Ed002 Why not ? {Ed002's Note - I really don't want to get dragged in to such discussions, sorry.}


We need a striker now!! not another winger.
2009 captain


Beacuse he is lazy, doesn't put in the effort and is disinterested. Lucky to get a half an hour from him. TD


I can tell you that we will definitely sign a johnson. I can't tell you whose johnson it will be though.


 

 

21 Aug 2012 12:07:00
Hi Eds, what is known of the interest reported in Nolito from Portugal? {Ed002's Note - I don't know of any interest from Liverpool at this time but Real Betis has approached Benfica about taking Nolito on loan. I am wondering if this is simply a recycled story from some time ago when Liverpool enquired after the kid when at Barcelona.}


A loan would be great but why would Benfica consider that after the great season he had? (11 goals). Is he unsettled over something? Seems a risky buy but potentially good loan. {Ed002's Note - Benfica want to keep him - he wants to move back to Spain.}


Ok thanks. I guess that's that then, pretty sure Liverpool is not in Spain. :(


 

 

21 Aug 2012 12:06:46
have we ever exressed any interest in kevin gameiro?
cost 10 million, surely a striker is more important than a winger at the moment {Ed002's Note - He was looked at a year or so back.}


Is there still any interest in nolan roux? {Ed052's Note - No}


 

 

21 Aug 2012 11:46:22
Ed002 just a few questions.
1) Where are we at regarding the stadium issue? Any significant inroads being made?
2) What do you make of the likelihood of previously unmentioned or unlinked options being consider this window? We're all too aware that initial plans can often not materialise and thus new and/or different alternatives instantly looked at. So how possible is it that, say, Isco, Moussa Sissoko, Gameiro, Lopez may become serious options as we fail on our preferred ones?

3) What of the possibility of a leftback? We all saw what happened at the Hawthorns, and much as I advocate youth promotion, I think it best for Robinson to first go out on season.

Lastly, ed002, a poster on here suggested that LFC perhaps take a punt at Adebayor, and you replied that you'd be 'suprised'. Can you elaborate on that, please?
Thanks

BARNEY {Ed002's Note - Nothing significant has happened with the stadium but you should keep an eye on the council's planning website. Of those listed Lopez would in my view be a possibility if Carroll were sold. Fiorentina would still like to move Vargas on and Liverpool has previously shown an interest - but no firm offers are on the table right now. I don't see interest in Adebayor from Liverpool and his wages would be a major stumbling block. However, he is available.}


Which Lopez? {Ed002's Note - Trini or Lisandro.}


Houses round the main stand to be delisted to garden or other usuage opening them up to be bought and developed by LFC


Adebayor is about to complete a deal with Spuds.


 

 

21 Aug 2012 06:34:05
Ed,001 any interest in seydou doumbia of cska ?
think him to replace carroll and jovetic to replace downing would be a dream signing upfront if we could get them after selling carroll,cole,adam et al..
Suarez could play left, doumbia central and jovetic right..there were a few issues with his actual age but now they seem to be resolved after that scan before the ACN last time..
I know Both would be near impossible but if we sold carroll,downing,adam,cole 1 of them is definitely possible.. {Ed001's Note - no, I am taking it you have not watched him?}


He is not good enough espn have the rights to russian football i often watch it when there is nothing else on he has pace but not much else people go on about because he is good on computer games,mark


Isn't he like 30-something?


According to FIFA he is 24, however he signed for Everton in 2003 at "16" however he had apparently already been playing African First Team football for 13 years (in 2003) so either he was playing football at the age of 3 or he has lied about his age.

Not to mention he has no birth certificate and looks about 35+

The chances are that he isn't 24 andd it would be a unquestionable gamble that he isn't too old.

Plus he is absolutely terrible

Ben


 

 

21 Aug 2012 09:07:42
Ed002 do you think there is a possibility that we try and get dzeko either on loan or permanently? especially if carroll is sold/loaned {Ed002's Note - I would be surprised.}


Exactly the same type of player. so y do that? jamie


No hes not!! dzeko can control the ball n is fleet of foot, dzeko would be a gr8 buy
5gold stars


Ed how come you would be suprised? {Ed002's Note - There is no interest from Liverpool I know of and I am by no means convinced he would improve the team.}


Dzeko scores goals if given the chance. would hugely improve the team


Carroll should not be sold,play him with Borini and Suarez up front


 

 

21 Aug 2012 07:17:04
Ed002 when is ousama assaidi expected to be available {Ed002's Note - He should be available for the weekend.}


Why not for Hearts ed?

Kieran {Ed052's Note - Becuase he has already played this year in the Europa league}


Doesn't UEFA rules allow for a player to play for 1 team during the qualification phase and then for another in the play-offs?


If it was one player why would you not wait to see who you get in before blowing your one player option.
I am guessing this is why he is not available.


Yes he could play for us in EL at the group stage, but only if his prevoious club dont make it to that stage. {Ed002's Note - Correct.}


 

 

21 Aug 2012 02:54:40
pleae ed002 is it true that arsenal's talks with sahin has stalled? does this keeps us in the pursuit? and who may be our next targets if we lose out on him? any truth in chasing AJ? {Ed002's Note - Fazeli has confirmed that subject to the completion of the paperwork Sahin will move to Arsenal with them paying all of his wages (2.8M euro) plus they will pay a fee to Real Madrid for the loan. There is no option to buy at the end of the loan. Liverpool, Besiktas and Galatasaray also put bids on the table but the player's preference was always Arsenal.}


IS it just me or is this a real slap in the face?


Just you - why worry about players who don't want to play for LFC.


Big slap in the face yes only player really wanted to sign he goes arsenal we get Allen growing trend every transfer window we just don't have it anymore


Why worry about the players who don't want to play for us we should cos they seem to be all the good ones


Dont worry about players who dont want to play for us, hhhhmmm that seems to pretty much be anyone decent, I agree that year after year we seems to be going to players below the Liverpool standard its a shame but we are going to be a mid-table team for a few years still unless we invest properly and im not saying throw millions at the wall im talking clever buys not Allen yes he had an OK season with Swansea but does that make him worthy are a liverpool spot i dont think so! And the manager doesnt make you feel good when after the WBA game he turns around and says expect many more days like this, so we should expect to get whipped by teams who will be struggling to survive! WONDERFUL i know im being a bit negative but the only signing to excite me over the past 3 years has been Saurez the rest i know wouldnt cut it!


He was always likely to pick a CL club over us if one was in for him.

That's just the way things are at the moment, unfortunately.

Eds, There's reports going around everywhere Internet/papers that Rodgers has been given more financial backing for transfers. Can u confirm this {Ed052's Note - Not sure, but he had money to spend anyway. It will be added too by sales}


But Rodgers had previously (a few times too) stated that there was a limit on transfer funds and he was quite frustrated and he was finding it hard to operate in the transfer market?


If he has he'd better feckin' hurry up!

Any possibility in Wanyama of Celtic Eds? Name popped up quite a bit over last few days. I'd prefer Yann M'vila tho! Jamie {Ed052's Note - No, I doubt it}

Liverpool to bid 12m for adam johnson


City only want £10m! So good luck trying to convince everyone of that one lad!


Typical overinflated price that Liverpool fork out for players


We should be pushing the boat out for ramirez,


Forget about buying english players they are all rubbishe.when is the last time england won something 1966!we should buy cheaper and better foreign players who can actually pass the ball.


TO MUCH ffs! hes worth 8-10 at most.


I would be happy with this, quality player with so much potential, better than downing!

The Independent reporting Liverpool lead the race for Adam Johnson after Rodgers given financial banking.
Can you confirm anything Eds? {Ed052's Note - Not too sure}


Once again we are talking about a wide player. is it me, or are we desperate for a striker? If AC moves on, which would be a shame as he gives us something else, then we have Borini, Suarez and Morgan. None are pure goalscorers. People criticise Downing and last season it was pathetic to see him stop a run, not take on adefender or move play back-but the reality was that he had noone in the box to aim for. so whoever we get, we need players in the box, we need strikers who can do that.


Morgan is a pure goal scorer


Morgan scored a tap in cole on pre season tour and sterling made the goal. Rather speak of him

Rule out Sahin at your own Peril.

Still sure Agger will leave

Still positive on Dempsey.

Thanks,

Maisey.


Sahin might come to liverpool.Last night sahin deal to arsenal stalled because they want him on a pernament deal next year but real dont so liverpool might hijack move.


Hi maisey , any news on Adam Johnson or is that more media bs & how confident r u on sahin I thought he was all set for arsenal ....cheers Steve


Thanks for more of your "rumours". Do you just get them from the star or summat.


Hope your right about Sahin and Dempsey and wrong about Agger

Kerryred


I guess Maisey has put her true knowledge on the line with this statement, Good luck Maisey !


I really hope that you are right on Sahin and Dempsey and that if Agger goes we get a very big price for him

Puzzled


Do you think Arsenal will loan him to us?


The problem with Liverpool fans these days is that we raise our hopes so high that every little thing that doesnt go our way is a massive disappointment. I chose not to read too much into Sahin being a liverpool player already as its not been the first time we've looked so close to making a signing only to miss out at the last minute. I wouldn't hold my breath on Dempsey either. People coming on here saying how this and that deal is as good as done claiming to have sources. I am starting to feel no one actually knows whats going on and its all pure speculation. How come not one of these so called insiders saw the Assaidi deal coming? Anyways would love Sahin to come but I wouldn't bet on it that's all.
DAni


You think theres still a chance of us signing Sahine?TT


This is brilliant - all statements incorrect...


I've ruled him out. Am I in peril? Some bloke in Starbucks keeps staring at me. It's him isn't it :-(


Wait did I miss something?

I was on holiday for two weeks and is this Maisey supposed to be in the know?

Eds?

Ben


Maisie - isn't that mickey mouses' squeeze?
perhaps that's where she gets her info!!


Just used the search function to read the whole Maisey saga. Very exciting! Trouble is, nothing in life is 100% certain is it? I mean, if you were my PA, you might know that I thought about buying a Land Rover. I really researched it and even made an offer to a dealer. But then I bought a Honda CRV! No one saw that coming.


At ur peril.... oooooh :( death to the non believers cos maisie knows everything! haha. ur gonna have to use a new name when the window shuts and ur ridiculous rumours are shown to be bollox. i recommend something no-one would link to u, Daisie perhaps?!


Must be brendans PA ?

Got some info from my source in Holland that we've enquired about Belgian international Nacer Chadli of FC Twente.


That could be nice. Great player. Maybe he could come as cheap at assiati.


That could be nice. Great player. Maybe he could come as cheap at assiati.


Hope this is true.....great player


I hope this is true, chadli is a boss!

Dempsey will be the next and final signing of the window, but will likely be early next week as the deadline approaches.


I'm not being funny but I doubt we even have any interest in him at all?. Brendan Rodgers said theres nothing to report on him so we obviously don't want him that much!


Like u k now!!! no one knows on ere , like the lad signig last week , no one knows , rubbish text
5 gold stars


Im all for Dempsey signing, but we really do need a striker. Dempsey isnt a striker. Having a great season last season does not mean he will join us and hit double figures. Another striker and to keep AC please BR. Jamie

Just been informed by a little birdy we have asked sunderland to step away from the aj deal to prevent a bidding war on the condition we will sell downing to them at the same price !

big birdy


I'd like Johnson and downing.


Cant see Downing leaving at all. Jamie


They would be crazy to take Downing for the same price! He cant get past an old Granny with the Ball at his feet..


Hope you little birdy told sunderland they can have Downing provided they let him play against us

Aj is hopefully not one of our targets ?


Is that little birdy Twitter?


Lmao you have asked us to step away and you believe that , do you really think livpool are that bigger club they could do that dream on


Can only assume that big birdy you're "little birdy" was you're 2 year old child!as this is utter rubbish


Sunderland have a left winger in mc clean he would kill dowing


If there was a god !
