Ed002, any truth in these Coman rumours? Cheers.

Believable3 Unbelievable2

{Ed002's Note - Sounds liek an old story from a year or two back being rekindled - certainly there was interest then. Now, I don't know.}

26 Jul 2015 20:20:05
I like him actually but seems a bit pointless.

Do we hold an interest in Lucas Digne? Used the search function but couldn't find a definite answer. If so do you think we will pursue a loan or permanent move?

Believable4 Unbelievable1

{Ed002's Note - PSG's Lucas Digne has requested a transfer due to lack of game time with AS Roma already placing an offer. Atletico Madrid and Liverpool have made enquiries with his agent, but not PSG at this time. His agent says that he understands Galatasaray are also interested but they have not spoken to him or the club. PSG don't want to sell but will seek what they paid for him should he decide to force a move.}

Thanks for the quick reply. Also, do you think we will go any further than an enquiry or is our business done for the summer?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I really don't know - Liverpool MUST sell.}

27 Jul 2015 11:00:07
And yet people thought my Digne post was unbelievable!

Another one for the academy.

Kingsley Coman is being courted and is expected to sign in the coming weeks.

Who is Kingsley Coman mate?

Kingsley Coman is 19 years old and so far in his short career has won Ligue 1 with PSG before joining Juventus in 2014. Last season he played in all senior competitions which Juventus participated in as well as scoring in the successful cup run. He was also brought on in the Champions League final as replacement for Patrice Evra in the final mintue. A lot is expected from Kingsley Coman and if we were to sign him he would be seen as Raheem Sterling's replacement rather than an academy player. Unlikely to sign as I cannot see how we could fit him into our squad.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 18:20:26
Thanks a million SP.It be good if we did though but then where would that leave Ibe?
Barry inLouth

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 19:04:10
Coman is with Juve and has played several games for them in their first team so why would he step all the way down to our academy?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 19:06:13
And why would we sign a replacement for a player we have already replaced three times over with Ibe, Lallana and Firmino?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 19:23:39
Don't mention it Barry.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 19:45:37
Yeh I know SP it makes absolutely no sense at all IF true but this is BR we are talking about after all.
Barry inLouth

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 20:55:09
BR will have him as a substitute left back if he gets hold of him.

Vrcomp has been pretty decent on the academy incomings so far this summer. I know nothing of the player, good insight scouse pride does make it sound unlikely but from what people have said we've brought in some decent academy players this summer. Difficult to see how they will break into the first team but from a fans perspective it's surely good to have these options.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 14:29:04
I know this would have probably been kept private between the club and sakho anyway but Gomez was very surprised when asked about sakho wanting to leave, he's the funniest in the group Apparantly and was talking about next season. Cheers

Barry inLouth

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 20:18:24
I can't remember exactly when but a few months ago I mentioned on here he'd already turned down arsenal and was desperate to join Liverpool despite being an arsenal fan. Cheers gazza but I'm not sure.

My dad met a Brazilian taxi driver the other day (you got to believe me here) who claimed, and gave photographic evidence to show that he was mates with a load of the Brazilians who play in and amongst the capital.
Obviously this meant most of the guys he knew were Chelsea players, although he freely admitted to my Dad they are well aware that United and Liverpool are the biggest teams in the country, and he had been best mates with David Luiz when he was here.
He gave my dad two pieces of 'gossip' though, one was that Oscar won't be leaving Chelsea as he's settled in London and has kids in schools and everything.
The other was that Inter had been in talks with Sandro, of QPR, who's desperate to move there, provided it's on a permanent basis, not a loan, which has been looked at. Sandro, though, is apparently aware he's Inter's second choice, and they're still desperate to sign Lucas Leiva. The guy didn't mention if Lucas wants to leave or not, and probably has never met him even, but all I'm saying is Inter may have signed Kondogbia but still seem to be pushing for Lucas.

Quick question eds, if Lucas were to leave, would you be surprised if we were to try for Thiago Motta, who's just said he wants to leave PSG?

Believable1 Unbelievable12

{Ed001's Note - yes, I would be very surprised.}

26 Jul 2015 12:04:43
Remember when all the posts where like this? Lol

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 12:46:30
I couldn't have made it sound any less believable could I?!
Honest to God, though, my dad told me that the cab driver told him every word of that

Agree3 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Brilliant Toddy, now that's what I call a proper old fashioned rumour (yes)

26 Jul 2015 15:27:25
Oscar has a daughter who has just turned 1. so I am confused how his kids are so settled in these schools in London. Maybe this brazillian cab driver by day and high rolling footballing socialite by night may of got confused!!

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 16:33:47
Okay. Imma guess my Dad relayed the whole story badly.
It's slowly starting to sound less and less convincing isn't it?

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jul 2015 13:05:11
Oscars only daughter is 12 months old. she is not settled in school.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 02:14:03
just read an article on espn saying it's surprising we didn't have any interest in schneiderlin, even for the sake of helping lovren out because of how well they did at Southampton. What does everyone else think? i'd love for lucus to be fit the whole season but I'm skeptial due to the injury trouble he's been having lately.

On another note it worrying we don't have many buyers for our players. we could have a huge loss if we don't sell soon the club will sell at prices that will be at huge losses.From what ed002 has said we won't agree terms with lazio for sakho so we're not even close to sell him atm (very upset he's possibly leaving). Going to be very intresting to see how everything plans out.

Any updates on players we are selling eds? Read this site everyday at work so addicted to it. congratulations on your engagement ed001 best of luck mate!

Believable5 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - there is nothing new with regards to players leaving mate, I am just glad we are pricing Sakho out of a move, but find it odd we do the same with players we want to get rid of.}

26 Jul 2015 11:08:56
Ed, with the prices we are putting on our players. Are we open to negotiation or set on the prices.
My thinking being we set a price higher and then possible interested clubs would come and negotiate to a price we would except.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - you always have to be open to negotiate a bit, but we are way off on our valuations.}

26 Jul 2015 11:11:33
You mention Lucas as DM, but you forget about Emre Can, who hopefully will be our first choice. As much as I like Schneiderlin, no point getting him if its going to hamper Can's chances of getting into the team. There are other positions of more importance, although as you said, selling players is at a much higher priority right now

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2015 12:09:06
Cheers Ed. so it looks like we're lose players on free transfers then if we don't lower our prices.
Surely the club will look at non sold players and paying there wages and realise there have to drop the wage bill and there asking prices?

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - I hope so.}
