Just back from San Carlo in Liverpool. Aquilani out with Ayala, Degen, Doni and Insua. Aqua is 100% gone that is for sure. Not sure about the rest. L19 Red (slightly inebriated after many Peroni and Limoncello)

Hi first time writing in so dont shoot the messenger, apparently LFC are continously being linked with Michel Bastos, I have a friend (no names) who is good mates with Jovanovics english agent and he said KK is seriously considering him as he wants someone with experience who has worked at the top level.

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 22:26:21
alrite ed,i think if we sign a cb we can realy push for 4th.with dann and cahill being possible targets(speculation),any of the two would be a great signing.which one of the two do you see us geting?

ste liverpool {Ed002's Note - Dann is more likely I think.}

Hey Ed Now That Chelsea got Lukaku think we'll go for Sturridge?

- English
- Young
- Proven in the Prem

I definitely think he'll be good back up as a striker, especially considering Ngog looks likely to leave.

PITSILFC {Ed002's Note - No, it is not going to happen.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 19:15:41
Ed I have a few questions,
1. With lukaku now looking certain to join chelski can you see us enquiring/going for sturridge ?

2. Ayala is now leaving, surely a centre back is now certain to join who do you think ATM is most likely Dann or Cahill or somebody else ?

3. We have to rid ourselves of woeful Ngog, he is s**te, can you see him leaving ?
Cheers

Aussie red {Ed002's Note - (1) No. (2) We expected Liverpool to buy a centre back anyway - Ayala has never been in the equation. (3) Probably.}

Liverpool will take the cheap option on Jose Enrique for around £7mil.

They will also offer £8mil + Meireles for Neven Subotic. It is clear, after the pursuit of Jones, Liverpool want a good quality young centre back who is strong in the air and are willing to pay big.

Liverpool are also after a Right sided player who can also play up front, with pace being a key attribute.

Ayala will go to hull, Cole on loan and Kyrgiakos on a free.

Big surprise Mata in a white jersey after half time. I wonder what it is like to be IN THE KNOW.

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 18:36:00
Hi Ed's and Reds

So disappointed..Mata has not signed at half time and come out in a red shirt..NNNNOOOOTTTT

another one we can put to bed

PS I am disappointed really

atlfc70 {Ed002's Note - You can still look forward to the January 2, 2012 game at Manchester City where Aguero switches teams at half time.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 18:24:27
ed how much would cahill cost and would they be interested in taking ngog and shelvey on loan if offered them.DORSET RED {Ed002's Note - They would look for the standard £20M but may be willing to negotiate - and they would likely be interested in loans for cover where the two lads have gotten injured.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 18:31:24
Ayala agreed to hull so defo defender coming in soon

Square tomato

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 18:30:05
Hi ed, just wondering how much the deal for Ayala is worth ? thanks ed. {Ed002's Note - £500k plus was mooted.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 17:56:56
I read today that dann is waiting a move either to chelsea or arsenal now he heard they are interested in him and therefore we are going to try get Cahill instead even though he cost twice as much but we get twice as much time for him as he still young .. Also read we inches close to agreeing fee for Enrique and someone I know inside the club said we will only go in for a right winger in January but that is if KK thinks we need one and a lb and cb will rap up the summer spending ..

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 17:56:34
Is there a website you can watch the match? {Ed002's Note - www.soccertvlive.net/}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 17:27:10
I enjoy your thoughts Ed002 - however I hope your thoughts are 100% wrong this time, and he stays - we need flair as well as effort - and the only real flair we have is Suarez and Aquilaini. And I still haven't seen any proof that Aquilaini has said he doesn't want to play for Liverpool - plenty of alleged quotes from " reliable, truthful journalists and agents " - oops - sorry no such animal exists.
==============================

To the above poster, I think the whole world knows about Aquilaini not wanting to be here except for you.
But Like you I wish Aqua boy does not get his wish and stays, I do think he is a decent player and offers something different.

Big news Scott Dann not picked to play at Derby today
KK and DC have bid £6m for him and £6m for Enrique J Cole, Aquaman, Ngog, Poulsen an Degan all going Our last signing will be a right winger from Lennon, Hazard, Mata or Jarvis. Also heard a rumour or a deal between G Johnson and D Sturridge
Ed's what do you think of the the above?

Redman 10 {Ed009's Note - I think that your two defender predictions are viable. Lennon, Hazard and Mata are all very unlikely and there is a small chance of Jarvis, but I am not sure we are pursuing another attacker at this time.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 16:51:08
no mereiles in team or on bench.....strange ?

tel 1949 {Ed009's Note - He is available to anyone willing to pay a fair price. If he wishes to stay he will have to resolve the wage issue he appears to have.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 16:41:13
Hi Eds, Its saying on 'talksport' that arsenal willing to let nasri go to city for 20mill, would it make sense for LFC to put an offer in? Thoughts? {Ed002's Note - No, and it is not going to happen.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 16:21:43
Hey eds, quick question..is there any truth in Udinense's bid for raul meireles? Thanks

Cease {Ed002's Note - I don't know of a bid from Udinese but there is interest from Italy.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 16:16:56
Rumours are in that Liverpool are considering a bid for both Magrao of Dynamo Kiev and Nathan Dyer of Swansea. Also, for the centre back slot, Liverpool are in for Dann but have to act fast as Arsenal are also said to be monitoring his situation.

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 15:54:58
I hear that Liverpool are looking to strike a bojan type of deal for Affelay. Barcelona given the right to buy him for few millions more after 2 or 3 seasons. ED, Is it likely? and do u think it is a good idea?

miccmak {Ed002's Note - It seems unlikely.}

Hi eds, have we got that Mexican U17 player. {Ed002's Note - He is due a trial as soon as he is fit - around now.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 13:53:32
Scott Dann playing for Birmingham here at Derby. Arsenal chief scout Steve Rowley here too. Word is, Dann plays well, Arsenal will bid £10m. Hope liverpool have someone there too.

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 13:52:08
{Ed009's Note - I think it is far more likely it will free funds to go for defenders. If another attacker is sought, I very much doubt it will be Hazard}

May I ask in that case, who realistically could we see if those funds do become available, in your opinion of course? {Ed009's Note - it is risky for me to make predictions like that, as they are not based on any more than my reasoned speculation as nothing concrete has come up in a while, but I would suggest the three most likely players to sign are: Enrique, Dann and Cahill.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 13:37:08
Ed's>>> Do you think with the imminent departure of
Of Alberto Aquilani, Milan Jovanovic, David N'Gog and Joe Cole It could free up the funds needed to go for Hazard?
Soulmiester {Ed009's Note - I think it is far more likely it will free funds to go for defenders. If another attacker is sought, I very much doubt it will be Hazard.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 13:04:40
Alright Ed, is there genuine interest in Joe Cole from PSG?

Can't see it myself.

Anyone else know?

Thanks
Stu. {Ed002's Note - I am told that there has been a general enquiry from PSG as to Cole's availability and nothing more. There has been no bid, no request for discussions, nothing.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 12:57:28
I have heard that liverpool are
interested in signing Forlan

Cahill is joining this week for around
14 million with spearing and ngog

going to bolton on loan for the

season

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 12:47:55
Speculation that Gonzalo Higuain could be subject to a bid from LFC. Benzema being first-choice at the moment and Neymar being linked with Real, a decent bid could bring Higuain to Anfield.

What do you think ed?

maka {Ed002's Note - No, I am afraid I do not see Higuain at Anfield next season.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 12:19:15
Eds people seem to be forgetting about raul meireles can i ask how do things stand in reguards to meireles?

D690 {Ed002's Note - There remains interest in the player from Italy and from Portugal. I expect much will depend on the resolution of his financial issue.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 11:14:09
Liverpool have approached Bolton over Cahill (cash 13m) and Birmingham over Dann (cash 7m) hopefully a double swoop happening next week.

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 11:01:28
Big news Mata to hold talks with KK after the game today.

Remember thy name... Darren T

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 10:24:12
I am almost 100% sure aqua will not be going to milan. From what I have been told they are looking at hamsik, montolivo or kaka ( papers are correct on those) with the most likely being montolivo as napoli want 40m for hamsik an madrid asking for 38m for kaka. There is also a strong chance that they will wait until winter window when they expect ganso to sign.

Not as if money is a problem for milan but burlusconi being strangely tight with purse strings at min.

I still think fiorentina is most likely (if he moves at all) but will depend on how much they can fleece juve for vargas.

06 Aug 2011 10:12:19
Whats this we're interested in
Joey Barton? any news on this Ed? {Ed002's Note - I refer you to extensive previous discussion. Give the search button some exercise.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 09:58:29
eds do u think we can get Eden Hazard
liverpool till i die {Ed002's Note - I think it extremely unlikely this summer.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 09:24:42
Hi Ed's, you are doing a stern job Thanks for keeping me entertained. What are your thoughts on Aquaman? I think he will go to Milan. I know he has out shone in our recent pre-season friendlies but deep down he doesn't want to be there. He is certainly fit and would be a great asset but to be fair i think we need funds for our defense so the sooner. He goes the better. Please post on rumours ;-)

Rachel5030 {Ed002's Note - My thoughts on Aquilani are that he will leave to Fiorentina, Juventus or AC Milan.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 09:22:51
Eds;
What happens to Mata? {Ed002's Note - I am not sure what you mean - he remains a Valencia player and it looks like Arsenal have blown any chance they had of buying him.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 09:09:17
After the signings of Dann and Enrique, LFC will attempt to prize away Aaron Lennon from Tottenham. Following Young's move to United, and Marveaux's move to Newcastle, we are still in the market for one more winger after missing out on those two.

With Poulsen (50k), Cole (70k), Degen (50k), El Zhar (30k), Jovanovic (65k), Konchesky (40k), Insua (20k), Pacheco (25k), Maxi (60k) will get around 380k off the wage bill in order to fund new signings.

Dann (35k), Enrique (50k), Lennon (70k) will be the signings we make. This will also free up wages for any potential signings in January if we need it. FSG dont mind paying for wages but not for the likes I have mentioned above as they dont play much (aswell as being not good enough)and they are on very high wages.

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 08:48:42
Ed, Is Park Chu Young a better striker than Ngog? and if so by how much, if he is a lot better and he really wants to join perhaps we will try to offload Ngog and then offer Chu Young, Ngog's level of wages, so that if it didnt work out we could have less problems moving him on. They way we will also be improving our squad for little expenditure. It makes sense does it not. I suppose Ngog does not want to leave the premier league and Bolton/Stoke dont seem overly fussed about signing him so he may stay leaving no room for Chu Young or another bargain. {Ed002's Note - I don't want to be trying to compare one player to another but have championed Park Chu-Young since last summer. I am sure there will still be a couple of players leaving Liverpool.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 06:50:20
Expect big news prior to match with Valencia today "Juan Mata has signed and will play for both teams today as a farewell to his current supporters and a welcome to the kop"

Remember my name The Heff

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 01:24:59
Hi Ed great site , i was just wandering how much was the bid we put in for Enrique at the start of the transfer window which had gotten rejected, thanks :)

Ghandi Floss {Ed009's Note - If I remember correctly off the top of my head it was around 5 million pounds.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 00:48:03
Hi Eds, what is happening with Park Chu-Young? he is a technically brilliant player with a great work ethic and wants to join LFC, also twice the player of n'gog so would make a great back up? why havnt we moved for him? {Ed009's Note - I would imagine it is because we are not looking at bringing in any further attacking players at this moment in time. It is as simply as that. He would be a good signing who would love to join and I still maintain that if another attacker was sought, there is a good chance it will be him.}

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 01:05:18
Park chu young has rejected a move to rennes saying he wants to move to liverpool

 

 

 

06 Aug 2011 00:05:15
Was just watching the repeat of LFC TV, they were talking about Milan Jovanovic leaving so it was very recent. Roy Evans did say that he has been reliably informed that 2 more signings will be coming in. He then went on to talk about a left back and center back. Which does seem to reflect what has been said in the news and on here. So after getting these two players will bring to an end the spending for this transfer window.

 

 

 

05 Aug 2011 23:58:31
liverpool have just agreed a 10 mil deal for enrique. also kevin nolan and joey barton leave the toon.
