Ed001. Is it safe to say Dahoud isn't happening? Do we have an alternative or is it Zielinski?

{Ed001's Note - I do not know where the Dahoud story came from. We were always after Zielinski, the only issue was the way we went about getting him has caused us problems.}

30 Jun 2016 16:47:57
Ok mate fair enough.

Do you expext to Zielinski deal to be sorted once Poland are out of the Euros or hsve still got some work to do?

{Ed001's Note - the issue is purely between Udinese and us.}

30 Jun 2016 17:11:27
It will be easier now that we have agreed a fee for Jerome Sinclair, with Watford.

Only thing stopping PZ from joining now is Poland at the Euros.

Hi ed01,
I'm not sure if you appreciate people asking you about personal opinions on transfer targets, and my apologies if it annoys you.
But what do you think about zielinski?
I don't know anything about the lad!
Would he play infront of the back 4?

Cheers

Liam.

{Ed001's Note - I have not seen him play.}

I think we are going to have to be very patient with zielinski, and not expect wonders from him.
He still looks a pretty raw if very dynamic player, and he might need a season of developing in the PL before he starts to really shine.

30 Jun 2016 19:57:57
He has hardly kicked a ball for Poland. How good can he be? Is he worth the hassle? My opinion is no.

30 Jun 2016 20:17:46
He's 21 year old I see him as a squad player. With can and hendo being 1st choice. Can anyone else see that.

30 Jun 2016 20:20:30
Same as sane for Germany but you would take him.

Or Sanchez who Bayern just payed 30/ 40 mil for.

He doesn't get in this Poland team because of the style they play, there are better players suited to it. Due to ut being a defensive set up.

Klopp wants to play on the front foot, dictating games and he will be good for that.

30 Jun 2016 21:12:24
He's not worth the trouble, IMO.

30 Jun 2016 20:37:37
How many balls did Kovacic kick for Croatia yet many would take him in a heartbeat. Just wait and see Zeilinski is a good player but Poland have a settled side.

30 Jun 2016 20:49:33
Paulo

Not sure what you mean by playing at front foot? Does that mean leaving gaps behind? You don't play high up to dictate and game. BTW Renato Sanchez is currently running the show against Poland.

30 Jun 2016 22:51:17
Zielinski looks like a in experience Schurrle.

30 Jun 2016 23:08:37
I don't know why we're going for him tbh.
We have lots of young central midfielders : Can, Brannagan, Grujic.
Still I'm happy to accept Klopp has a master plan so I'll wait and watch.

30 Jun 2016 23:49:32
Lots of opinions here from people that have NEVER seen him play!

Wind your necks in and have some faith in Klopp and the scouting team.

01 Jul 2016 06:03:16
Its no reflection on him that Krychowiak is keeping him out of the Polish squad. Krychowiak is seriously good from the few games I've seen him play in and the only Sevilla player named in LaLiga team of the year. Plus as Paulo says above, Poland are setup to play with 2 defensive midfielders so is always going to be hard for Zielinski to force his way into that side.
Zielinski is young and does look a bit raw (shoots when I would have thought would be better to pass) but clearly has potential so we should be patient with him.

01 Jul 2016 07:20:56
Beddoerocks - Klopp I have faith in, the scouting team not so much.

01 Jul 2016 11:04:04
if you ever actually watched polland they play 4-4-2 with krychowiak and machinski as midfielders, two hardworking non-creative midfielders with grosicki and blazikowski on wings. and they don't change it. for zielinski to play in such setup is impossible. only if they set up in diamond. their coach is traditional and he played on polland streghts and played for result, Zielinski will be first team for Polland very soon.

01 Jul 2016 17:37:45
If Zielinski anything like Renato Sanches we should snap him up. Renato Sanches going to be a big player for years to come, he so young and he got pretty much everything to his game, Bayern made a smart move.

30 Jun 2016 14:22:21
In the most shocking transfer rumour of all time Liverpool are linked to Tello. I swear we have been linked to that kid since he was in the womb 🙈.

30 Jun 2016 09:48:57
Jerome sinclair has officially joined Watford on a 5 year deal, Liverpool will be due some compensation after rejecting an initial bid of 1.5m.

30 Jun 2016 10:00:34
It was expected that a transfer tribunal might be needed to determine the fee but Liverpool accepted a deal reportedly worth £4m from Watford.

30 Jun 2016 10:01:04
Note- 4m is the estimated compensation fee.

30 Jun 2016 10:10:08
It's not a compensation fee, the clubs have come to an agreement.

30 Jun 2016 10:58:23
Will this go towards smoothing out things with the pozo family.

30 Jun 2016 11:18:54
They increased their bid to match what was allready accepted from another club, Den82 is correct.

Just finished evening shift at JL Airport. Happy to see Ben Chilwell looking relaxed chatting to reps of LFC. Not long now!

30 Jun 2016 00:26:05
Hope your righr.
