Rumours going around that there has been a major concrete fail on the the stand, anyone heard anything on this.
1.) 15 Oct 2023 20:34:44
According to a youtuber I follow on the progress, it's a potential ground floor concrete failure. I'm sure an announcement will be made this week.
2.) 15 Oct 2023 23:29:09
That would be MrDrone. So far it's an unsubstantiated rumour. Should be good enough to get some of the hooples panicking though.
3.) 16 Oct 2023 18:17:28
"News" that breaks from any account that is financially motivated to drive engagement should be viewed with suspicion. These people aren't your friends, aren't looking out for you, and aren't concerned with promoting any type of public good.
4.) 16 Oct 2023 12:11:24
Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that the new concrete is having a medical. Here We Go soon.
5.) 16 Oct 2023 19:50:12
Just to counter MrDrone's news, his buddy and fellow drone pilot KC Imageworks also has an insider at the stadium and he claims it's a load of bollox.
We'll know soon enough.
6.) 16 Oct 2023 20:49:27
Is the concrete rumour concrete?
7.) 17 Oct 2023 02:16:39
@LiverpoolFC8, yeah, at least asbestos we can tell.
Sorry, couldn’t help it.
8.) 17 Oct 2023 17:08:22
WDW, nah you did it on purpose and enjoyed every second of it.
9.) 17 Oct 2023 20:48:04
Guilty as charged your Honour ?.
10.) 20 Oct 2023 16:19:58
I’ve seen video going round of concrete steps wobbling and walls being taken down.
11 Aug 2023 19:30:31
Chelsea getting Lavia too now, what now?
{Ed002's Note - I have repeatedly explained their need for 2 DF players after losing Kante, Jorgonho, Kovacic, Loftus Cheek et. Maybe you should pay attention?}
1.) 11 Aug 2023 22:19:47
They going to need two to stop our attack.
2.) 11 Aug 2023 22:09:35
Congrats to Chelsea, as hard as it is to take, they seem to be a more attractive proposition to players (well these two) at the moment. Or they are just way better at getting signings over the line. ? our turn will come… eventually.
3.) 11 Aug 2023 22:00:50
That would be over 1.1bn spent in 12 months. how in gods name is that allowed.
{Ed002's Note - Why not.?}

It’s been a bit of a shambles so far hasn’t it? We just need to pay the money for Lavia if we want him and stop trying to be so bloody smart. Honestly a few days ago I couldn’t imagine any neutral player in their right mind wanting to go to Chelsea full stop, let alone as a preferred option to LFC. Now I’m not so sure if I’m the weird one based on how we have been conducting ourselves. Losing out on MC is one thing if he has that preference, but if we lose out on Lavia because of mucking about after today and yesterdays goings on then that is just as many people have said, a bit embarrassing. Where ol’ Edwards when you need him? He might not have been the most savvy financially but he wouldn’t have mucked about like this at least.
11 Aug 2023 10:52:30
Hi Ed 02, rumours that chelsea are going to bid again for Caicedo, any truth or are they not prepared to go above 100m.
{Ed002's Note - Obviously they could bid again, but they had made clear that they dis not want to go above £100M and Brighton have already accepted the offer from Liverpool, so I personally consider it unlikely.}
1.) 11 Aug 2023 10:57:25
thanks for the quick reply.
2.) 11 Aug 2023 11:10:05
Loving it Ed has all the right answers today.
3.) 11 Aug 2023 11:15:01
Thanks ed, a report I respect has calmed me a little. Still won’t be until the anfield kean I think. Can’t imagine klopp would confirm if there was a chance too.
4.) 11 Aug 2023 11:18:33
Ed2 do you think there is an option that Caicedo does not agree personal terms?
{Ed002's Note - It would be very unlikely.}
5.) 11 Aug 2023 11:22:47
Klopp has stated that he doesn't know if Moises is having a medical today, and has only been told that the clubs have agreed a price. So still a bit to do.
6.) 11 Aug 2023 11:30:07
sky are reporting Caicedo is having second thoughts and has remained in london.
7.) 11 Aug 2023 11:36:30
@Jota if that's true scrap the deal and never go back to him.
8.) 11 Aug 2023 11:39:49
SkySports saying Moises remains in London and is having 2nd thoughts about a move to Liverpool. Remains to be seen whether Chelsea returns with an improved offer.
9.) 11 Aug 2023 11:42:37
Sky sports news reported that Caicedo has second thoughts on joining LFC. Omg!
10.) 11 Aug 2023 11:58:38
Southampton going to ask for £75m after seeing this.
01 Jun 2023 16:05:32
Anyone else get the feeling Mac Alister is holding out for another club, never known personal terms taking so long to agree, seemd a bit strange.
{Ed002's Note - The issue is not personal terms, it is agreeing a fee and add ons with Brighton - and critiocally how the fee will be paid.)
1.) 01 Jun 2023 16:18:51
Seems Romano has said fee will be a lot lower than the 65/ 70 mill being reported. Would be great business if we get him cheaper than that. Knowing us we are probs trying to spread to fee over 5 years.
2.) 01 Jun 2023 16:33:55
ED002 - reading between the lines does that mean liverpool are trying to get him on the cheap.
{Ed002's Note - I was not aware of a fee being agreed but they will look to negotiate.}
3.) 01 Jun 2023 16:35:45
And interest free ?.
4.) 01 Jun 2023 17:13:07
Is it Ward who is responsible for negotiating or has he left the club and Jorg is the person in charge now?
{Ed002's Note - Without asking I don’t know who is there.}
5.) 01 Jun 2023 17:55:47
Christ almighty man! The windows nor even open and the lads not even in the country! Just control yourself fella.
6.) 01 Jun 2023 18:28:44
I don’t understand, on my Football Manager game I can agree terms with player and club before I finish my cup of tea. What’s the hold up?
7.) 01 Jun 2023 18:32:16
Mfahmee, I ve been hired to do the negotiation. FSG gave me 10 pounds and a packet of crisps.
I have the 10 pounds on the table with the Brighton board for hours now. I ve been using delay tactic after delay tactic to drag the meeting out. I emptied all the vending machines in the building and sabotaged the food in the kitchen. You can really sense the hunger in the room. Any minute now I'm going to hit them with that packet of crisps.
8.) 01 Jun 2023 18:53:16
@ Davey sulls is that true you're doing the negotiations? Obviously you jest about the food etc. Have you got any other player negotiations any time soon?
9.) 01 Jun 2023 19:09:55
Davey's also working on bringing Cookie Monster in, but he's trying to entice him with fruit.
10.) 01 Jun 2023 19:55:47
I do everything from player negotiation to hostage negotiation and everything in between.
And no Zed. I would not approach the Cookie monster with fruit. Not after last time.
11.) 01 Jun 2023 19:56:20
This is just like the good rubbish from years ago.

The reason why I started reading.
12.) 01 Jun 2023 21:59:35
Davey - I wish you'd get off your ar5e and finally get Simao, and Jen Aguero over the line. Just give them the crisps. :)
13.) 01 Jun 2023 23:01:27
RedTed, Davey is actually Gary Linekar, and you know how he feels about crisps.
14.) 02 Jun 2023 00:20:40
Don't get your hopes up about signings guys. I have a terrible win ratio.
In fact I really wish they'd stop giving me hostage negotiation cases.
15.) 02 Jun 2023 02:00:30
@Jota, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with Liverpool trying to get the best deal they can when they are trying to buy or looking to sell a player. so, yes Liverpool try to get players ‘on the cheap’ as you put it.
The thing is Liverpool will have a maximum they are will to pay for a player and the club selling (in this case Brighton) will have a minim7m that they would be willing to accept. Obviously both sides will negotiate to try and get 5he best deal. It boils down to if Liverpool’s upper limit meets or is higher than Brighton’s lower limit. If it does, we have a deal, if it doesn’t then no deal. As Ed02 says there are sometimes other factors - Brighton might want, as an example, £60m and we might be willing to pay £60m but there might still be issues -Brighton might want, say, full payment in one instalment whereas we might want to pay instalments over a n7mber of years, which might mean the transfer doesn’t happen.
As has been said the window is nowhere near open yet so it’s probably best for everybody’s nerves and sanity to just wait and see what happens. After all, as the legendary Doris Day sang, ‘Tell me ma, me ma, I don’t want no tea, no tea’ or something along those lines.

Great username @molbyslostgoal.
19.) 02 Jun 2023 11:57:04
According to a journo friend, the fee is now agreed with B&HA. Minor details of the payment schedule are to be ratified before the announcement next week.

All these rumours saying we are speaking with the agents of Mac Alister, Thuram and Kone, not one reports says we have spoken to their clubs, i wouldn't get too excited.
1.) 31 May 2023 10:10:59
It’s a step forward if true, no hint of the usual tapping up.
2.) 31 May 2023 12:45:48
That's a little more exciting than Mount and Gravenberch and better potential, especially Thuram, he is mint.
3.) 31 May 2023 14:59:54
OP, I think that is how the process works. You contact the player thru the agent first and then everything happens from there on.
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool cannot contact the players directly without permission.}
4.) 01 Jun 2023 11:50:24
Thanks for the clarification, Ed02.

RIP Diogo YNWA.
12 Aug 2024 16:46:34
Ive just read that since 2016 the laws where changed in spain and buyout fees payed to a player are no longer subject to tax?
{Ed002's Note - They have changed on multiple occasions and would be liable to a legal challenge. The transfer of Neymar impacted the situation and then the transfer of Partey changed it again. It remains complicated. Liverpool need to talk again to his club.
12 Aug 2023 08:00:49
Everyone needs to forget about Chelsea, I personally hope we go for Florentino Luis, but think his release clause is over 100m, not sure if that’s euros or pounds.
11 Aug 2023 11:30:07
sky are reporting Caicedo is having second thoughts and has remained in london.
11 Aug 2023 10:57:25
