We are now being linked with Lazio's Balde Keita Diao, 19 years old. Lazio have snubbed a £16m offer from the Reds - and they want £24m for Keita's services.
Any more we are linked with as this is getting ridiculous now.
We are being linked with the world and his wife.

Actually, don't want to be a stickler here but, he had his trial in May. Will be signing but he will also be staying at his home club for a year or so.

Would love to have him back! Ever since he left we haven't played a minute of champions league football
Agree4

If, and it's a big if, he was to come back he would be sharing a place with Stevie. But he won't be coming back, he has had his time with us. The game would pass him by now. It's too fast for him in the premier league.
Agree4

Wrong move. I can't see him being the same player and this second stint is what we will mostly remember. I heard that RM want to sell because of fitness issues, lost too much weight, not good for prem

Alonso was a great player, fantastic infact but I really hope we havnt bid 10 mill for him its time to move on folks.

Does not make sense under any circumstances.

Hi eds reports from Spain saying we have made an offer for Diego Lopez from Real Madrid? Do you know anything about this?
Believable8
Unbelievable59
{Ed002's Note - I am aware of three clubs who have shown an interest in Lopez in the last couple of weeks. I am not aware of any offer from Liverpool.}
Is Keylor Navas expected to start ahead of him? He's a very good keeper but anyway I don't see us going for a keeper I think Mignolet will get this year to improve.

I've heard that he will replace Reina

Mignolet replaced Reina a year ago.

I think it would be a good buy if we were involved.

Hm, I've read he's on his way to AC Milan.

{Ed002's Note - They are one of the interested sides as Real Madrid push for Cech.}
Why would we spend money on sub goalkeeper who realistically would only play League Cup games. And, why would the starting goalkeeper for Real Madrid come sit on the bench at Liverpool?

He's not starting anymore! Plus what happens of mignolet gets injured? Or hits a bad run of form? He would still be my number one, but having Lopez as a backup would be good.
Agree0
Disagree3
{Ed002's Note - How many times did you see Brad Jones let Liverpool down in the league?}
Brad Jones will do fine for the odd game and should Mignolet suffer a long term injury you can always signa keeper in January or get an emergancy loan
Agree2
Disagree1
Brad Jones will do fine for backup.
@sean88, I would say roughly about a zero chance Mignolet would start ahead of Diego Lopez if we were to sign him (and I know we're not).
Agree1
Disagree0
Hasn't Lopez agreed to go to Milan?
Have to admit, as much as Jones is a top bloke, always leaves me feeling nervous as he does make the odd costly mistake.

if mignolet were injured I would feel in safer hands with someone like Lopez, than jones.

Why are Real pushing for Cech when they already have Navas and Casillas?
Agree1
Disagree0
Abaka unless casillas is on his way out or retiring after his world cup showing I understand how he was behind lopez but navas is a good keeper as good cech

Hey eds, do you know if we still hold any interest in Heung Min Son? He would be such a perfect player for the way we like to play. Can play either out wide or through the middle comfortably.
Thanks in advance.

{Ed002's Note - For now it seems to be on the back burner at the very best. But it has probably gone.}

Hi eds
Can you try and explain why has the Moreno deal got stuck after being for so long imminent? Is it the fee or (as I suspect) the player not that keen to come? Or maybe his club was never in it seriously (in that case why has the negotation went for so long) - also is this now officially dead or are we conisdering raising our offer?
Also, same questions for Bony (surely he would prefer us to Spurs with CL football and even without - so it must be the fee?) is this one dead and burried for us?

{Ed002's Note - I explained last weekend what Liverpool's most recent offer was. Maybe they will go back with another variation. I also explained previously why Chelsea stepped back from the deal they agreed. I don't want to keep going over the same thing.}
Sorry by Chelsea you mean Swansea?
Agree0

{Ed002's Note - No.}
11 Aug 2014 19:50:16
Chelsea were in for Moreno and then stepped back, am I right in saying it's something to do with him wanting to play for Madrid at some point Ed002?
Agree0
Disagree0
{Ed002's Note - I did eventually explain this but in summary. Chelsea reached agreement for the sale but Moreno and his agent wanted to take that deal to see if Real Madrid would match it - Chelsea stepped away at that point.}

Never ever going to happen. You seen him in preseason? They'd never sell to a rival and Aguero has injury issues, so they would want to offload a striker

Non starter, I'd love it to happen but it's not even an option.
