What 'want' being the key word but chances pato cost 50M or so.

Is there any chance we could sign Luis Suarez this January?
Ed thoughts? {ed's note - if we go for him there is every chance, Ajax have to sell players, but I have my doubts we are after him.}
Ed- Didn't Hodgson go to watch the Ajax v Milan game before we played Utrecht last month? Watching Suarez maybe? {ed's note - Ajax have been scouted by Liverpool scouts most of the season mate, but I think it is Erikssen we are watching. Hard to tell, but I just think he fits the profile better, younger, cheaper, lower wages and has huge potential.}
Ed- Is Erikssen the young lad who came on in the World Cup for Denmark against Holland? {ed's note - I think so yes, that is the one I am thinking of anyway, I hope I have it right.}
Yeh I think your right ed, it is the same one. Lets just hope Hodgson plays him if he comes :) {ed's note - from what I have seen he would easily jump straight into our first team mate.}
this eriksen i just checked him out on youtube and youtube usualy make players look good they couldnt even make him look good on there so i don't see how he can jump straight in to liverpool team well in a way i can cos hodgson is in charge lol
08 Dec 2010 23:31:17

i hope its suarez were looking at not eriksen, we need a striker who can come in now and help out not in 2 years time, , at the moment with it being january we need players who can come in now and improve things and help torres out, , eriksen can't do that, suarez on other hand is brilliant player and would be able to, , i don't care what ppl say bout him biting another player so he had a rash moment hes still an excellent player aslong as he gets goals and wins us games that's alls i care about, im sure this moment of madness he had was just one off yet ppl wanna condemn the man, zidane excellent he was a god to many he has a mad moment alot of ppl laughed bout it, alot still saw him as a god, and slight few ppl were disgusted and condemned him,

All these names and links and so called in the know. Whilst its fun to speculate merely listing as many names as you can and coming back with 'I told you so' in february does not mean your in the know. I am not in the know except to say I'm really glad to see that no-one knows and we're doing things now the liverpool way. The only rumours (in my none knowing opinion) that seem to have any legs are the Honda rumours (which I really hope materialise) and the link with Ajax. most other rumours are merely guesswork and blind optimism or regurgitated rumours from other sites/ press. Whilst its good to talk/ speculate and enthuse about our club and hopes for the future lets not get carried away. Please continue with your so called rumours people but don't try and convince folk that your in the know. You don't have to say it because i for one don't believe you more because you tell me your best friends with a senior players brothers uncle etc etc. to the editors keep up the good work

All these rumours and we'll probably end up signin no one.
ye have little faith lol, i think we might be in for a surprise signing like meireles was, i have a feeling hodgsons gunna come good with signings and have a good second half of the season

Ed which striker is most likely in january {ed's note - in my opinion Erikssen from Ajax is the most likely, but that is 'educated' guesswork rather than any real knowledge of who we are going to buy.}
08 Dec 2010 22:30:19
A jonhson will sign in jan if he takes a pay cut 70g a week will do it
08 Dec 2010 22:23:04
Ed, I see some people are talking about bolanos from Copenhagen, Im a right in saying he once
had a trial with us? {ed's note - I think so mate, I seem to remember him not being deemed good enough, but I could be wrong and it could have been a work permit issue. It was work permits that stopped him getting a move to Charlton when they were in the Prem just afterwards.}
08 Dec 2010 22:17:18

08 Dec 2010 22:08:17
Rocky {ed's note - I would be very surprised if there is any truth in it as he is a first team regular. Though Kenny does like him and recommended him to Rafa and Roy in the past. I will ask for you though and see, but I doubt anyone will have a clue at the moment, no one on the playing side of things has a clue right now unfortunately.}
mr editor, its because the season just finished in russia so teams are looking to keep players match fit, maybe cleo on loan could be an option. but mcgeady could be good, especially loan, can play striker or wing (2 positions needed to fill) and we could maybe bid if he does well
me14 {ed's note - normally they like players to have a rest though, rather than going to play for someone else.}
08 Dec 2010 21:53:28
Ed, just heard from an agent friend of mine that Liverpool are lookin at a loan move for Aiden McGeady from Spartak Moscow! I don't know what to think of this to be honest. . Can u find out anything about this from your sources Ed? ?

"He has lived in tamworth all his life and just bought a house in dosthill i know im sitting in it! And as for no insight don't you think players don't talk to each other? As i said mark just heard from the prem inner circle theres going to be a lot of changes! Also just commented he wouldn't play for our donut of a manager but then laughed!
Agree over the donut. But very much doubt he would know who we are signing as things have been done extremely secretly over the last few weeks. The players of Liverpool would not know so I seriously doubt he would know. Also, if your mate is Mr Allbrighton do you think he might be a little pissed that "your sitting in his house" sending this.

Luis Suarez £9million+Babel
Keisuke Honda £9m
Charles N'Zogbia £8m
Scott Dann £6m

The Liverpool section on Sky Sports says that Johnson could leave Liverpool. Juventus and Inter Milan supposedly interested. If we decide to sell and if Johnson decides to leave, then I'd take Davide Santon as part of a swap deal for him. We'd get money, plus a right-back with the potential to be better than Johnson (and he's better than Johnson defensivly).

i think liverpool will make contact for him but whether he agrees to drop his wages by 40-50k a week that's another matter lol

Story ed's? Howsa goin long time no post eh. I just emailed that t* t Alex beam, what a tosser. That Honda rumour seems to have legs now doesn't it? I posted a few weeks ago about my boss being at man s* tty game and word was we enquired about Adam Johnson and he said we made enquiries but he said this time that nothing will be done in jan Johnson wants yi give it the season. I think your right with only 2 signings in jan who would you like or think if I was to push you for it mine would be llorente/ dempsey
Fowler is god {ed's note - Honda and Llorente for me mate, though I do like Dempsey as a player.}

I find it quite ammusing as it then ends up in the tabloids within a couple of days. By the way, Kenny Dalglish to come out of retirement and partner Torres. Very reliable sauce.

Liverpool linked with Suarez. Definitely an exciting player. fits the bill of young talent. despite the recent negative action around him. .
I seem to remember reading somewhere that NESV have some history of taking 'troubled' players (on the 'cheap') and then helping them through their issues so that they perform to their potential and realise their true value.
08 Dec 2010 20:50:11
To the fella who said this
"Regarding the rumour the last few day linking us with mark albrighton, im with mark now and he laughed and said he wishes someone wud tell him as he has just bought a house in tamworth and is villa through and through! He did say he has heard through the football grapvine that there is going to be a lot of movement at anfield in jan and the summer and believes we will be a serious title challengers! No names mentioned but big things happening in the background!"
Tamworth is a sh* hole! Close to Bodymoor but a proper dump! Imagine Sutton Coldfield would be preferred choice. Even Lichfield is better than Tamworth!
Also, Mark would have very little insight into signings and regarding signing for us. . . better than what we have?

Liverpool linked with Suarez. Definitely an exciting player. fits the bill of young talent. despite the recent negative action around him because of the handball and biting incident he always gives 100% and is a consistent goal scorer. could play across the top or wings. Coach just sacked and hes been looking to leave. fleeing in Jan. possibly 9-15 could get him.
(SOURCE: Metro.co.uk)
also i think the Lucas(player of the season so far), Meireles combo in the middle is starting to look brilliant. when gerrard comes back to slot in behind torres upfront we'll make a real run of it

Hey Ed(s). .
Have either of you guys heard anything on scouts being at the match between AC Milan and Ajax? As it would shine some light on the Suarez and Ronaldinho rumours. .
. .: LojR: . {ed's note - I haven't heard that we have anyone watching this one, but the first match between them we had at least one person there watching it.}

"Liverpool to tempt Kieron Gibbs to Anfield by trebling his wage, from 10k to 30k a week.And offer him regular first team football.Gibbs fed up with being Clichys understudy, wants 1st team football and a crack at England Left Back spot.Reds to offer £7m"
Why on earth would we do that when we have Robinson coming through?
Well Robinson is only 17 and it will be at least 2 years before he will be able to cope in the prem and he is ready gibbs can be moved up one place to the left wing to offer a bit of width.
Rubbish, stop playing football manager. This neither makes sense nor is it going to happen

"The path has been cleared for LIVERPOOL to go and get SUAREZ and HONDA this JAN.

Liverpool scouting a Costa Rican player who currently plays in Denmark.
So it's either Cristian Bolaños (26, RW) who has already been on a trail with us and didn't sign for us, looks decent though. Dennis Marshall (25, LB, LM) Looks a good players and also versatile. Or Bryan Oviedo (20, LB) young and looks a decent player. I hope your right mate and the positions that they play they could be considered.
08 Dec 2010 19:29:15
Bolton have offered Johan Elmander to Liverpool in exchange for Sotirios Kyrgiakos. Bolton also interested in loan deal for Jay Spearing.
08 Dec 2010 19:26:53
Ed is there a chance of us getting connor whickham in jan? i know we will prob have competition from other big clubs in the prem but him being a liverpool fan and torres being his idol i think he would choose liverpool over arsenal or spurs. on sky sports.com it says that ipswich would consider decent bids , with ipswich not having a tonne of money i think a bid of about £8million - £10million would be enough considering Town chief executive Simon Clegg thinking £3.4m for john walters was alot of money , then an £8m-£10m bid for one of there players would tempt them.
DLG {ed's note - if we want him we could get him, the question is whether we want him enough or not. There is a good chance he will move to Spurs anyway but if we went in strong enough we could get him as I am sure we could offer him more first team football.}

To the ed or the editor
How true are Ronaldinho rumors on skysports? ?Is that just a publicity stunt or has any ounce of truth in it.
TBH, I watched him play at Santiago Bernabeau, he may not be at his best but he can still do things with the ball.
Finally, which position would he be employed to play - behind Torres or on the wings or the bench.
Whatever, in the end he can provide entertainment at times. {ed's note - I don't think there is anything in it at all, impossible to tell for sure because even a lack of scouting is no indication we don't want him. I am pretty sure Roy and Comolli know how he plays by now.}
08 Dec 2010 19:22:19
LUIS SUAREZ TO LIVERPOOL
LFC STARTING LINE UP JAN 2011+
TORRES
SUAREZ
BABEL GERRARD MERIELES KUYT
TAIWO CARRAGHER AGGER JHONSON
REINA
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
CANT WE MAYBE EVEN SURPASS OUR TARGETS WITH THESE TWO SIGNINGS?
WE HAVE MORE STRENGTH IN DEPTH THAN PEOPLE THINK, REMEMBER THIS IS LFC WE DONT NEED TO BUY WORLD CLASS PLAYERS WE WANT OUR PLAYERS TO PLAY WITH HEART AND LOYALTY. TBH GIVE BABEL A GOOD OPPURTUNITY AND ADD A DECENT LB AND FORWARD TO OUR TEAM AND I AM SURE WE WILL BE ABLE TO GET FOURTH AND MAYBE MORE. GIVEN SUAREZ'S ABILITY TO PLAY OFF THE STRIKER I AM SURE HE AND TORRES WOULD TURN OUT TO BE THE MOST DEADLY PARTNERSHIP IN EUROPE!

In regards to the rumours regarding Suarez, I remember recalling about a week ago, that MACCA was saying that we were in talks over a player transfering with a "very famous dutch side". Editor do you think there could be a link here with Suarez. Would much appreciate your views, thank you. {ed's note - I am not sure it is Suarez but I am very sure it was Ajax he referred to.}
(0) (0)
your dead right ed because the player we are after is 18 year old playmaker christian eriksen the deal will take place in january and it will be a straight swap for babel or tho there will be add ons if eriksen proves his worth
08 Dec 2010 19:15:03
Don't know if its been posted before, but A Tom King plays in the academy for Liverpool. He's Australian i think.

Luis Suarez; If he leaves Ajax its probably to Arsenal with Bendtner going the other way . but it will depend on their manager situation , he might stay put till summer.
Cleo seems the most likely striker we will get, he is decent and far better than the alternative (C Cole)
About the Right back: its still possible that Glen Johnson want to leave the club, and possibly the club can cash in on him , if we get anything over 10->12 m will be good, From what I've been reading Fanni will be a cheaper alternative in terms of price and wages.But yes why buy when we have Kelly who done more that a good job in that position.
I also think this Jan window either Nzogbia or Gutierrez will come in.
About Ken Aguerro, I would love him to have our number 7 , but he is far too old, and from previous posts he is far happier fishing than playing football, his grandson may develop into a star one day.
All this from a very reliable sauce.
Roy

Thing is mate, Wenger said he won't be signing anyone in the January transfer window, and in all honesty I don't think they need another forward unless they plan on benching one of their big names.
And I agree about Aguero. Top class striker. Would love for him to join us.

With rod fanni (rb) apparently very close to a done deal, johnson is playing very well at the moment, so why, plus we have kelly as back up? There goes roy again, we need a striker but the first person he buys is a defender (possibly), he should be in advanced talks with honda or a striker not right back!
Any one else agree?
E.H LFC
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Key word being "apparantly". The deal isn't done, and at the moment it's all rumours and already you're blabbing on about Roy! Plus, if Roy didn't have faith in Kelly would he have given him a new contract? I highly doubt it.

Then why say "there goes Roy again". Try to wait until anything has happened before blaming Roy. And like someone else said, transfer are no longer the manager's sole responsibility. They are decided by a committee therefore if we sign someone you don't approve of, don't look to Hodgson only.
Ah right so he didn't play him in a game after he played well and all of a sudden he has no faith in him? Don't be stupid.

Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva has welcomed the club's link with Brazil team-mate Ronaldinho.
Reports in Italy have credited Liverpool with a shock move for the AC Milan playmaker when the transfer window reopens in January.
Ronaldinho's future at Milan has been the subject of speculation for some time, with his contract set to expire at the end of the season.
The former Barcelona star has failed to establish himself at Milan and it seems he will leave the Italian giants as a number of clubs are thought to be waiting in the wings.
Lucas is unaware of any interest from Liverpool in Ronaldinho but admits he would love to see the former World Player of the Year join him at Anfield.
"I am not aware of anything in terms of Ronaldinho signing but I would be very happy if this was to happen, " Lucas told Globoesporte.
"We started a friendship when we played in the Olympics and for Brazil. It would be nice to play with him at Liverpool.
"Everyone knows Ronaldinho and they know what he can do."

Ed, Is the Suarez transfer practical with so many other clubs surely willing to take his talents on? Would he join us do you think? If I was in his shoes the prospect of playing most of the remaining games for liverpoolFC would be too good to turn down. (Although I've had my rose coloured glasses on for that long now it hurts when I take them off). Also, why people (LFC fans!) would turn there nose up at the chance of Suarez coming to LFC is crazy. The lad is class. (Ed, I have to say sorry for getting a few things off my chest at you a while back - Questioning if you were a blue is way below the belt)
EPortRed {ed's note - I don't want Suarez to join us but I have no doubts that he would love to move to us. He has been looking for a move from Ajax for a while, but they priced him out of a summer move. I don't think they can afford to keep hold of him any more, they are in similar difficulties to the Spanish clubs, they have to sell players, that is why Jol left. They promised to keep their better players when they convinced him to not take over at Fulham, that has changed now though. Personally I don't think he is the right player for us though, far too temperamental and can't handle the rough stuff. In England he will get kicked from pillar to post and I just can't see him not reacting and picking up lots of cards. As for the rest, no worries mate, we all say things in anger that are deliberately designed to offend the person we are talking to - and let's face it what is more offensive that being called a bluenose?}

Oh and i never said he was fat, i said that Ronaldo (plays for corinthians) was fat if you read my post correctly. To the guy that read it wrong, read again before you post a rant."
I don't doubt we'd have a chance but the question is whether he'd even be a target;
1) He's 30 and would have little to no resale value, thus does not fit the remit of NESV to bring the age of the playing squad down
2) He struggles for fitness these days and does pile on the pounds (he's no fat Ronaldo but he is in the Insua mould)
3) As he ages his ability to act as an effective winger will diminish rapidly as his pace goes
4) He lacks the physicality for the Premiership
5) His wage demands would not make financial sense (far more likely he'll head off to the Middle East/ USA with that in mind)
6) If he's not used as a winger then he'll be seen as a forward/ AM, if the latter we already have a better player in Gerrard and if the former we'd be far more likely to turn to a youthful out-and-out striker
7) He has an ego bigger than his teeth
8) He wouldn't shift shirts beyond marginal figures, Torres and Gerrard would still reign supreme in comparison to an over-the-hill extra from The Hills Have Eyes ;)
9) At his age there's little chance of giving him a season or two to adjust to the league
10) Comolli has no track record for scouting such a player
Other than that i think it's a goer!

Just seen the Suarez stories after having a look at the papers.
So they think that Martin Jol leaving Ajax means that Suarez is unhappy and has asked his agent to speak with the club and get a move away. And apparantly Ajax are in financial trouble and will look to sell. Also says that we could get him for as little as £9m (which I don't believe). But then again, if he's desperate to leave Ajax he could definatly push through a move given the player power these days.
He's got a great record, and I've said before that I don't think the partner Torres requires is a big, tall target man - I think it's someone who can team up with him the way Steven Gerrard did.
Camolli has been saying about possible bargains, and clubs in trouble due to the economy (and apparantly we've been watching Ajax). I hope this is true and it's definatly the type of player we need to be going for.
Fingers crossed.

Ed there is a lot of speculation on this site but knowing that we need a striker and a attacking midfielder and possibly a defender, who do u think is likely to come in each posititon. Attackind Mid seems like we have Honda al sewn up but we need. Another class striker who do u think we will get. I think either Llorente or Suarez who do you think. And also Valencia only use Mata as a sub do u think we could get him with the promise of first team ball? {ed's note - Mata usually starts, it was unusual for him to be on the bench, it is Banega that usually sits on the bench.}
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Ed I kept flicking between Manure and the spuds. From what I saw, I didn't see Banega do a great deal. Do you rate this kid as I know you watch quite a bit of footy from what you have previously said? I personally don't think we need another CM. I would prefer us to sign 1 of either Honda/ Sanchez and 1 of either Llorente/ Toivanen. Your thoughts on these?
MUSHROOM {ed's note - I do rate Banega highly, I don't think he is a player we need to move for but he is available. He doesn't get on with Emery and has spent most of the season sat on the bench since coming back from injury. I would prefer the players you suggested too, they are positions we need much more urgently than central midfield.}

"The Madness of King Roy VI (Rumours):
Honda?
A great purchase in light of his current form and his showing at the World Cup.
Suarez oozes class and would be a good support for Torres. His behaviour is hardly worthy of the hysterical nonsense both on here and in other media; this is a man who acts a little bizarrely, but hey . . think of the players who have behaved badly on and off the pitch over the past few years - Tevez, Ashley Young, Andy Carroll, John Terry and a score more. Luis Suarez is not in this bracket and we should accept him as a fragile human being (which most of us at some stage in our lives are . .)
So if we are trading rumours, then try this:
NESV has announced its intention to look to youth, so that will hopefully put paid to the Madness of Konchelsky on £2.5m per year and the utter nonsensical rubbish about Ronaldinho!
Think on it guys before you fall for the media hype.
This is a story promulgated by the player's agent.
After all, he's nearing the end of his career and he needs one last big payday. Isn't this why the story rolls on?
He is overweight, over-rated and well past any sell-by date. We might as well ask Tomas Brolin to play for us!
My worry is that NESV will allow the new manager (oh, there will be one by the way) to buy rather than promote from within.
We spend a vast wedge of money on The Academy and yet we are only just dipping into that pot of potential talent because of injuries. The whole point was to get the next generation playing for Liverpool. I have said this on here before, why bother when you're 16/ 17 joining Liverpool as you know the manager wil simply pay for experience and not use you when they need replacement players.
Shelvey is a point in question here.
He should be a regular squad member and on the bench every game (along with Eccleston) and yet Roy Hodgson seems reluctant to use him unless it's in games where we have injuries or the games are not that important. And yet, we paid big money for him and believe in him.
Eccleston is being used with less than 10 minutes in a game to go - the other day I would hardly have given Pacheco a half so poor was he.
Maybe this is like the management game; you get a young player called Pacheco (foreign) or Suso (one name and class) and they are better than anything homegrown. It's like choosing a BMW 316i rather than a Ford Mondeo (expert opinion suggesting they are miles better) becuase it's foreign and 'cool.'
Don't dismiss this, as it seems to happen with managers.
(Just as an aside on managers - the PL is a merrygoround of failure and reward. People like Gordon Strachan and George Burley fail and then end up failing at a second or third club! And . . "Alan Curbishley is waiting for the right club to come along . ." What? After two years out of the game Real Madrid have still shown ZERO interest in you Alan!)
Rumour - they fuel our excitment and make us realise that we waste so much on our Academy and will do in the years to come.
If we need new players for 2011 then yes to Honda and Suarez, Ada Turan and Davenport, but think of the talent we already have that will probably miss out becuase the new manager wants and needs to establish his position by spending money.
Those I suggest by the way are:
Conor Coady
Wilson
Mavinga
Eccleston
Ince
Spearing
Amoo
. . . . . a whole host of others.
And if your response is they are not good enough, then why don't we out them asap?
Rumours?

The rumours on Ronaldinho have happened as Rijkaard to be new Manager and wants to reunite the Barca duo again.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Am I correct in saying that Ronaldinho and Rijkaard fell out dramatically at Barca? This lead to Ronnie's drastic loss of form in 2007, and indirectly lead to Rijkaard's sacking because he lost the dressing room. I very much doubt they would want to be reunited!
Ed: Am I right? Sure I am, but Ive been wrong before (apparently! )
Neither will be going to LFC anyway.
Red Gart {ed's note - yes mate and Rijkaard is not going to be the manager, I am 100% sure of that.}
08 Dec 2010 11:50:09
So who would all you fans (including the ed(s)) like to see, if reports are true? ;
bel: llorente 30m
unbel: suarez 20m {ed's note - I would much rather have Llorente myself.}
08 Dec 2010 11:44:45
Lads forget bout Suarez. He wasn't the reason why our scouts have been watchin Ajax. The real reason was Christain Ericsen. The young Dane has been in great form for Ajax and has attracted a lot of interest across the continent.
Also expect renewed interest from us for Ola Toivinen, as he has contuined his great form. We will have to fight of big hitters such as Real Madrid, Inter, and Juve to his signature.
Expect bids for English centre backs, Shawcross, Dann and Cahill. These aren't a replacement for Daniel Agger, but for Jamie Carragher, who the medical and coaching staff are concerned that he will never make it back to fitness after his long lay off. kk

Ed do you think we would have any chance of signing pienaar?? his contract expires at the end of the season and he would be a very good asset to the team, hes a very creative player {ed's note - he is a Liverpool fan, I am sure if we moved for him we would have a big big chance of getting him.}
08 Dec 2010 10:52:27
Ronaldinho, Dempsey and Honda to all sign to boost Liverpool's fanbase and commercial sales, FACT! Dempsey, along with Donovan is America's best player and most recognized, loved by the States and a deal of around £5m is being touted. Ronaldinho will join on a free next season if he is to sign, maybe even get him in on loan in January, but unlikely. Honda wants to leave CSKA, is Japan's best player and currently their biggest, and with the potential summer signing of Bolton's Lee Chung Yong we'd be very powerful commercially in Asia. 2 other players will sign on their skill. Cleo has now joined the ranks of the 2 billion other strikers we've been linked with. Truthfully I expect Connor Wickham and Carlton Cole (tragic, I know) and a centre back, with Scott Dann or Ryan Shawcross being signed.

Hi ed, what are the chances of lfc signing ronaldinho?? i think he wud be a handy asset as he can create a goal from nothing even though he has gone downhill in the las few years {ed's note - very unlikely mate, his wages are obscene, he is not half the player he was and he is not shifting shirts like he used to either.}
08 Dec 2010 10:47:51
I have it from good source that we will sign Ronaldinho and Honda in the first couple of days of transfer window in Jan
Do not ask me for the source as I can not name but can tell you very top in the club

Jol already primed to become Newcastle Manager , will have a knock on effect to Liverpool
Ajax in severe financial trouble, and would have sold players in the summer if Jol went to Fulham
Babel if he leaves Liverpool would like , to go back to Ajax.Liverpool scouts have been at Ajax over the last few months
Watching
LUIS SUAREZ, Babel + £10-£18m for Suarez, and evry ones happy
i won't be happy with that, suarez has an appaling sense of sportsmanship and would drag liverpools name through the mud almost as much as H&G, no thank you, but id either van der wiel, erikson, lodiero, alderwield, they all good players, one of them one be better option than luis suarez.
===============================
The shameful antics of Saurez after been sent off for deliberate handball against Ghana in the World Cup Quarter final and celebrating the missed penalty by Ghana really sticks in my throat. I don't really want him in a Liverpool shirt. A bad sport in my view.
It means he's a winner

Hi ED!
Just seen the breking gossip on bbc about suarez. Could there be a possibility as the metro hardly get anything wrong. He would be expensive but we have had him watched numerous times.Hes bangin them in at a goal a game and only 23 so will get better.
Any chance and any more on HONDA!?
Thanks ed {ed's note - the Metro is about as reliable as a tabloid, they regularly get things wrong. But I do have no doubt we have every chance of signing Suarez, if he is wanted, it is hard to say because we have had Ajax watched a lot but they do have players other than him. Nothing new on Honda though sorry, I really wouldn't expect anything new now until he is signed if it is us that get him.}

Buoyed by the club's upturn in fortunes of late, new Reds ownership group NESV are set to put their full weight behind Roy Hodgson by bringing in significant reinforcements to bolster the squad.
And although Liverpool have recently been linked to some bargain signings as the manager looks to bring in some new faces - the latest name is a Spanish international and World Cup winner who could form a formidable partnership with Fernando Torres.
Fernando Llorente, 25, could be sold by Athletic Bilbao in the January transfer window, given the club's well-publicised financial problems.
It is thought Spurs manager Harry Redknapp has already made enquiries about the player, but Llorente would be more tempted by an offer from Merseyside, given the presence of international team-mate Torres.
An asking price in the region of £16million could be a stumbling block for the Reds, whose new owners are trying to remain frugal.
However, if Hodgson can get his man for around £12million plus add-ons then a deal could be in the offing - if Llorente can be persuaded to leave Bilbao, where he has played since the age of 18.
Llorente would be well-suited to the Premier League with his height and power, and a goal return of 32 in the last season-and-a-half suggests he could be a big success.

The Uruguayan international is said to be disappointed at manager Martin Jol's departure from the club on Monday following a poor run of form.
And Suarez, 23, has now instructed his agent to instigate talks with Ajax bosses over engineering a move away - possibly as soon as the January transfer window - according to reports in the Netherlands.
Spurs were linked with Suarez - who impressed at the World Cup in South Africa - in the summer, but a move never came to fruition.
Arsenal were also said to be interested, although Arsene Wenger has ruled out raiding the transfer market this winter.
But it appears Suarez favours a move to Anfield, where manager Roy Hodgson is desperate to add to his options up front.
The former Fulham boss has been eyeing up several options to play alongside star man Fernando Torres, and Suarez's movement - and his ability to play off an out-and-out striker - mark him out as a definite option.
Given his desire to leave, Hodgson is hopeful of securing the South American's signature for a bargain price of £9million - especially as the post-World Cup hype surrounding him now appears to have died down.

"well we do need to know what makes u so sure "
Simply common sense.
08 Dec 2010 09:33:15
Well we do need to know what makes u so sure other wise u can't come on and say its a garuntee he won't come to liverpool if u have nothing real to back up ur garuntee then u should just say u don't think he would come to liverpool not that ur certain he won't cos u can't be certain he will or won't soo yeah
Surely it's common sense? The owners have said they want young players, he's 30, his wages would be rediculous and after that he's not the player he was, it make absolutely no sense and our new owners seem like very smart business men

Ok, you want reasons? 1. His wages are around £6.5 million a year. 2. He is hardly young or English. 3. He is past his best. 4. He wouldn't play for a club not competing for titles. 5. He would rather earn crazy wages in USA or the middle east. Now please understand we will never! Ever! Sign Ronaldinho!

Ed there is a lot of speculation on this site but knowing that we need a striker and a attacking midfielder and possibly a defender, who do u think is likely to come in each posititon. Attackind Mid seems like we have Honda al sewn up but we need. Another class striker who do u think we will get. I think either Llorente or Suarez who do you think. And also Valencia only use Mata as a sub do u think we could get him with the promise of first team ball? {ed's note - Mata usually starts, it was unusual for him to be on the bench, it is Banega that usually sits on the bench.}
08 Dec 2010 02:15:49
