Ed any truth that marveaux has defo agreed to sign? {Ed002's Note - He has confirmed that he is not re-signing with Rennes. That is all. It means he will move elsewhere and Liverpool remains in pole.}

Heard from an extremely reliable source that both us and Tranmere Rovers are having a look at Airbus keeper Niki-Lee-Bulmer. Not guaranteeing anything will happen but we are watching him, now that he is playing in this area having previosuly played for QPR. He looks a good keeper.

BBC took it straight from caughtoffside.com and if you click on the link the author doesn't even have a sourc, or state that he is signed. It says ' Liverpool set to sign. .' :/ BBC twisting words of unreliable sources. Don't be embarassing enough to fall for that again.

CHARLIE ADAM and ASHELY YOUNG
Really don't get what the fuss is about with these players. I for one hope Manure and t**tenham perk up their interest and really take us out of the equation.
This would force Comolli and Dalglish to turn to considerably better alternatives (Martinez, Sissoko, Banega, Payet, Griezmann, Dzsudzsak, Turan).
I would rather have a midfield of Meireles, Gerrard, M'Vila, Sissoko, Shelvey and Lucas, and perhaps a couple of appearances by Coady. No place for Adam.
On the wings/ wide midfield whatever you call it, Dzsudzsak, Payet, Turan/ Marveuax and Sterling (phased in gradually, of course) would do for me. No place for Young there.
I have this terrible feeling though (like I did before Hodgson got the job) that they'll come. But hope springs eternal. I cross my fingers that it doesn't happen.
Regarding this Mpez character
I've made my views on Young and Adam clear. Even though I know it's a matter of opinion, I still for the life of me don't understand what the fuss is about those player.
I personally couldn't be bothered whether Young or Adam or both sign for yer team, t**tenham or whomever so long as it's not LFC.
What is nonsensical is you (and your other like) saying so and so won't be coming to LFC, so and so will or will not be joining Manure blah, blah, blah.
No one except Dalglish and co; Slur Tramp and co, players, agents, selling clubs has a some idea of what's likely to eventually happen summer. No one.
You, your "sources", the editors, Rory Smith etc.
It's all deductions and speculations based on fairly reliable but not definite info.
Popular opinion is that Sanchez, Pastore, Aguero or Hazard won't be coming to Liverpool. "They've got better options", " Aguero's wages are too high", "LFC have not declared an interest" are some of the reasons given for that view.
First of all, it's not Mpez, Sydney, me or Ed002 who decide what would be better for any player and try to pass that as truth. Sanchez, Aguero, Hazard etc will, after listening to what Comolli has had to say, decide if Anfield would represent their best movd.
As I expect, Liverpool will, like many other clubs, lodge a bid for one or more of those players. If it's accepted, the player will give us a chance to win him over. We may, we may not.
A player agreeing to talk is a pointer to an openness to the move.
Now, as I understand it, Liverpool are keeping track of Sanchez and Pastore and may possibly perk things up summer. And moves for Hazard are being made.
He did say that he would prefer Arsenal in the EPL.
But that doesn't mean it's either Arsenal or no EPL. Comolli understands that, and that's why we're working hard to get Hazard in. Hazard to Liverpool is a big possibility.
He can and probably will be swayed. That's why I didn't read anything into his statement that he's "not interested" in a move to Liverpool. And frankly, I'm surprised that 002 would be a definitive view based on what the player told the media.
What matters is what the player tells Comolli and co at the negotiating table, not some radio or tabloid.
Moussa Sissoko has said that he wants to move to a CL team. Again, that's inconsequential.
Comolli will sit down the player's club and representatives and try to sway the kid, which he has a good chance of doing.
Same thing with Sanchez if we perk up our interest.
It's also been said by some editors here that here Aguero's wages may put us off.
All I'll say is: Henry and Werner want players who'll bring success to the club, not balance books. If Dalglish decides that Kun is his man, the chairman/ CEO whatever concurs, an offer will be made for Kun. Liverpool Football Club will be the ones to decide on what/ who is within our price-range and who is not.
To summarise:
1. No one, even the concerned players themselves, know for sure who they'll be turning out for. An idea perhaps of what's likely happen, yes, but everything's up in the air. So no definite statement of so and so will be playing for A, B, and C.
2. "There's zero chance of this move", "Momo will be moving to t**tenham" are all deductions and conjecture which may very well blow up in the faces of those who make them. No one knows for sure, so enough this passing tentative opinions and predictions as definitive fact.
Stop saying player A won't go to club ZZ because there are other clubs better than ZZ. That's your opinion from the outside. You don't know the player's thoughts, feelings and what he may be looking for.
Chelsea may well be in discussions with player E's club, but that doesn't mean he's likely to end up there any more than he is to sign for Milan.
3. There are some big players we interested in (Pastore, Hazard, Sanchez, Coentrao, Benzema). Others we've had serious discussions with, others we firming up interest in and others we tracking.
We'll work hard to get them. Contrary to what many would have you believe, we've every chance of getting them. Sure it will be tough, but it can be done.

Ed002, Higuain did get injured near the start of december, so they needed Benzema for the rest of this year, however he is seen as surplus to requirements in terms of next season as they hope to make Adebayor's move permanent.
That is why they agreed to sell him but not until the summer. He is needed, for now.
The deal may fall through for all we know, but a deal was struck.
Wait and see. YNWA!

Correct, but one might also ask why they would loan him to one of there league rivals (Napoli) when he's already had three (but tbh more like two) decent seasons with them?

Some of the big players being linked to LFC will not occur in the summer due to league position and and possibility of no european football.
However some players will join, and with Dalglish as boss, Liverpool will still have a fighting chance of finnishing in the top 4 next season.
Players that will join LFC despite current situation:
Shay Given. . If Reina leaves.
Scot Dann and Leightain Baines. . Both LFC fans from Liverpool.
Turan. .An LFC fan.
Honda and Lee. .Both are quality and are not yet targets for other clubs. Lee also has Premier League experience with Bolton and can play Right wing.
Conor Wickham and Daniel Sturridge. . LFC have as good a chance as any to capture these rising stars. Possibly a better chance than most because of the big name strikers already at other clubs that will
give these players less playing time.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Dont know about any of your other rumours but Baines is a massive bluenose as are his whole family so there is one down.
No interest from anyone else for Honda? Are you serious? I will tell you the team who is in pole position. . . Man Utd, it guts me to say as i love the player but that is fact.
I can verify my reason for knowing this if the Eds want to check up they have my email address.

Alot of that Ive been told too.
Benzema, Adam, Young, Cahill are nailed on, like you say.
Ive not heard anything regarding Turan, I think Dzsudzsak is edging closer to a move and also Sissoko is quite likely atm. Marveaux deal is off. We have made enquiries about Coentrao but im not confident about.
Based on my current info, I would say Benzema, Adam, Young, Cahill, Baines, Dzsudzsak and Sissoko are going to join, but things can change.
04 Apr 2011 15:32:39
I hope Liverpool are not dying to get a lb in summer market, with Johnson playing quite well on that position, much better than what he plays at the right. we must sign some good qualities on wings and atleast one CM. At the defence the most needed improvement is center, with Carragher getting too old and losing pace, agger consistently injured and Kyrgiakos. we only have young players there, except Skrtel. A new left back only if Johnson is transferred out as Kelly should be our main right back. What are your thoughts, ed?Thanks. .
{Ed002's Note - As I stated earlier, regardless of how indiviuals are playing, I am informed that Liverpool are interested in Oscar Wendt.}
04 Apr 2011 15:39:27
I agree again with you that Baines would be the better option of the 2 players, the 2 of them have loads of premiership experance and both get forward well. I believe Kenny is looking for players that have premiership experance or are young enough to learn to play in this country, hence Young/ Adam/ Carrol type players
exactly we can't really afford to waste money bringing in players that "might" make it. i think the club learned a lesson in the aquilani saga. proven epl players or young players that will have time to learn to play in england seems to be the way forward.

Sadly, it looks like we might be losing Konchesky, Poulsen, Jovanovic and Cole in the Summer.
Expect Konchesky and Poulsen to go to Barcelona with Messi being used as a "makeweight" to secure their services.
My "contact" (I cannot say too much) has also told me that a "considerable" package is being put together by Real Madrid for Degan and El Zhar.
As much as it saddens me, it looks like Emiliano Insua has chomped on his last Big Mac in Liverpool and will be waddling his way to pastures new (why do Argies get so fat so quickly?)
Also, we'll have to get used to the fact that we'll be without Skirtel, Aurelio, Kyrgiakos and N'gog for the next campaign but the arrival of Turan, Hazard, Iniesta and Eto'o should help to soften the blow.
My contact isn't allowed anything sharp so everything he told me was written in crayon and a bit tricky to read, but it looks like he's saying that . . oh no, that can't be true. . . .he seems to think that we'll be re-signing Xabi Alonso as he's "homesick"! !
Well, there you have it. . . a potted version of what'll happen in the Summer so pretty much anything else you read on here is Michael Ballacks!

Thank you ed for your honest fast replys reguarding my feelings on the left back position and the thought of getting Bridge to fill the gap. I've never heard of the guy from coppenhagon but i'm sure with your better knowledge of the european game he would make a good buy at left back.
I would to see some of the names of the wide/ attacking players that people keep saying are going to sign arrive at anfield this summer but i believe we need a left back too. So a cheap left back would make a good signing to free up the money to go get some world beaters to supply Carrol and Surez {Ed002's Note - You should be able to find out something about Wendt pretty easily.}
04 Apr 2011 14:16:06
Last summer there were a few rumours going about that Liverpool were after Wayne Bridge because we needed a left back. Well this summer Liverpool will still have the same problem and i think Bridge could do a good job at left back. He is good at getting forward and has good pace and delvery and is a solid defender with loads of premiership experance (so not a gamble on an overseas player). He is playing well for West Ham at the moment on loan from Man City, and because he is on loan i don't think that it would cost alot to get Man City to sell him.
Just a thought ed but what do you think?
Basil
{Ed002's Note - You make a good point. In my view the main thing against him now is his age and I would expect the club to be looking at players younger than 31 for next season. As a stop gap, if he were available on a free or very cheaply, then perhaps he would be considered.}
I'm glad you agree ed as i think he would make a great stop gap at left back along with aurlio (sorry on spelling). If he was availble cheaply or free this would put more money into the transfer pot to bring in the wide/ attacking players that the club really needs, and who knows in a couple of years time Robinson may become Liverpools left back saving the club even more money. If Robinson doesn't make it at the club then it gives the club more time to line up a full time replacement at left back.
Basil
{Ed002's Note - Even if Wayne Bridge were made available for free a hefty signing on fee and high wages may not make a 31 year old an unlikely signing. There have been lots of reports of interest in Enrique from Newcastle and the lad from Celtic, but my understanding is that the answer may rest elsewhere. Give a thougt to Oscar Wendt of Copenhagen who is (a) only 25, (b) available on a free transfer in teh summer, (c) of interest to Liverpool.}

I've been reading these pages for the last few weeks with interest. Some of the rumours have legs and some are very wide off the mark, but they do make enjoyable reading nonetheless. One rumour that I can put to rest is ashley young who will now join united in the summer after being 'informally approached' by fergie a few weeks ago. This I'm afraid is 100pc true. Ashley has been a but loose with his tongue, let's say!
A couple of other players that are high up on our targets list are Bojan and Canales, along with Jose Angel (everton also interested), Sissosko, Cahill and Jarvis.

Following up on BJH's post on Mourinho, makes me think and I ask myself, "could he really be or best option for the long term ?" I posted not to long ago on how i really admired Jurgen Klopp and how I would like him to be our next manager. Ed002 followed up by agreeing that Klopp along with other young managers( Villas Boas and Didier Deschamps)are great manager of the future. Then I began to think about how they are just beginning their careers as managers in which they still have so much future ahead of them.Well, this is where it comes into question if they are the solution for LFC's long term plans. The problem with these young managers in my opinion is after they have a couple of years of success, wouldn't they want to venture out to different leagues and fulfill their glories with other clubs( Inter, Milan, Bayern, Madrid. Barcelona, and etc. .)? Therefore, Mourinho's name comes into play. He's coached in Portugal(Porto), England(Chelsea), Italy(Inter) and in Spain(Madrid). Has achieve success almost everywhere he's been only exception being Madrid so far. Mourinho has stated the he wishes to go back to England and I believe that if he was to come back it would be for the long term of his managing career.The man has been everywhere so i believe he has realized that its time to settle down.That is why I see him as the ideal fit to this great club that is Liverpool FC. Maybe I'm giving it too much of a thought but that is where i stand with my personal view.
Would like to read fellow supporters and ed's views, thoughts, and opinions. Long post but hope u guys enjoy it and give it some thought.

{Ed002's Note - I very much doubt vthat Jose Mourinho will be moving to Liverpool. Eventually he wants to take on the job as manager/coach of the Portugal side.}

Would people want Aquilani back? He has come out and said he would be open to a return in the Italian press if Juve do not retain him. Personally I'd like to see him given a second chance as he is not fit and can kick a ball! Eds?
Iggypop {Ed002's Note - Aquilani has repeatedly stated his desire to stay in Italy. His agents were instructed by Liverpool in January to look at alternate solutions as well.}
