Evening ed2

Would selling Origi in Jan help pay for CB, whoever that might be. Origi seems short of confidence and is getting very little game time. I don't think we would miss him tbh.

There seems to be intetest in him and other clubs are having issues with injuries so he might seem a good option.

What kind of fee, aprrox could we get.

Cheers matey, and have a great xmas.

{Ed002's Note - Origi would likely fetch perhaps €15M but there is not a great deal of interest in him as far as I know. Liverpool need to better manage the squad - use what they have and make it through the season; already top of the table and players will be returning.}

Unfortunately no centrebacks returning anytime soon.

Yeah we don't need players but lorentz leaving we could take a chances on a center half to start or more cover

Rather wait then panic tho.

What happen if fabinho gets injured.

We saw what happened. Rhys and Philips stepped up and did decent. If it was up to me. I would wait till the end of season. Look how Gomez and VVD are doing, sell Matip as he is way to injury prone. And get 1 or 2 CB. Prob sell Philips if he didn't do well while covering or simply he wants to leave as he is 23? and prob whants to play. Keep Rhys.

We need a centre back with pace big time.

Stepping in for a game is not the same as playing every week incl CL. Williams has done well but he has zero pace. We sit too deep with him and fab hence our press is often off and on.

Hi eds,

I recall one of you saying that if Liverpool would be looking to do a future transfer deal, it could be a buy now pay later deal similar to to Jota deal.

Does this mean selling clubs, have the upper hand with negotiations?

Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - Liverpool need to balance the books like all clubs and taking on future debt is not a great idea right now when they will be suffering heavy losses. It would be better to sell players to make space in the squad and to raise funds.}

Do you see any possible outs in January?

Thanks.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I think Karius will return and go on loan again in January.

I think it cost Lfc an extra £10 million the way the deal was structured. Not a great idea long term.

Irish Rover, I sense a shift (perhaps a minor one) in the way FSG is thinking these days. Whereas we started buying young players (in the up to 23 years old group) in the beginning, with an eye to a future sell-on value, we're now looking at players in mid career like a Diego Carlos or a Thiago Alcantara (whom we bought) who can make an immediate impact (and damn the future sell-on value) . It tells you FSG wants immediate results and are more interested in the now, than they where before; which is not surprising given they own the club since 10 years. When you factor in Klopp's probable departure at the end of his contract, you also get a sense for the urgency in winning as much as possible as soon as possible. Which is all good, as far as I am concerned.

I'm not saying Jota is in mid career. He's clearly a player who will improve over time and provide a sell-on value. But he's higher profile and already has made a definite impact; the kind of player we would have shied away from in the past. We spent 2-3 years reading about how Klopp previously plucked away future super stars from lower teams (Lewandowski, Hummels, Gundogan etc, etc, ) but I haven't seen much of that happen at LFC (Salah, VVD, Ox, Wijnaldum were already established players) . He may have been given more time at Dortmund, but I sense that he has been told to push the pedal to the metal, now.

Rumour that we are interested in militao and Garay. Any substance?

Garay on a free makes sense - he would only command a 2 year contract at worse.

Agree0 Disagree0

34yr old Garay who’s currently recovering from a cruciate injury?
