Just reading Liverpool are interested in Morten Frendrup. Ed002 what knows you of this?
{Ed002's Note - Morten Frendrup (CM/DM) Versatile midfield player that Juventus are keen to sign. Noted by Spurs when scouting Radu Dragusin. Would be an alternate to Thuram or Manu Kone for Liverpool and they did have a well respected exPL player and high-end scout at the game against Inter at the end of DEcember - so perhaps something have come of that. Genoa have no interest in selling, certainly not mid season.}

Terrific player.

I won’t pretend to be following the Italian league, but I can say I’ve watched this young lad back when he was with Brøndby, since it’s the team I follow and support in my home country. Was a very nice little player, but to me always seemed a off pace at times. He was ofc very young, but I have been very surprised by the praises he has received for his time at Genoa. If he is already in a position to make the stop to the top level then I’ll be even more surprised. Would love another Dane at Liverpool, but how he fits in I really can’t see.

Ed002 hope you're well. Any Liverpool, interest in Antonio Nusa or just a random name being bandied about? Thank you.
{Ed002's Note - Antonio Nusa (LW/RW/AM) With Noa Lang departing and Skoras arriving the player has asked for confirmation from Della that he will be given playing time in exchange for staying and rejecting the interest of Chelsea, Manchester United and Barcelona where he would not be given first team opportunities in the short term. Chelsea and Manchester United remain keen whilst Real Madrid are now also showing some interest. Chelsea are looking at preferred options as well. Juventus, Spurs and Arsenal have sent scouts. One to watch for the future.}
17 Aug 2023 12:59:07
Greetings Ed002. Is there any interest in Jacob Ramsey and would Villa ever contemplate a sale? Not wanting to throw a random name at you but thinking of HG midfielders, he would probably command a big fee? I searched but found no mention for a long time. Thanks and appreciation as always.
{Ed002's Note - Not from Liverpool.}
04 Jul 2023 08:44:42
Hi Eds hope you're all well. My question is about youth signings. I recall every summer Liverpool making a few additions to the U21 squad. I know it's early in the window but any potential names being mentioned out there?
Thanks very much.
{Ed002's Note - Not much.
Adama Bojang (W/AM/S) Gambian youngster attracting the interest of Marseille, Chelsea, Spurs, Sporting and Ajax. Manchester United, Crystal Palace and Liverpool have sent scouts and watched him play. Sporting or any Spanish side would have the best chance of signing the player.Nelson Weiper (S) Mainz kiddie Weiper has been doing very well and has progressed to the first team squad whilst attracting many scouts to watch him including those from Eintracht Frankfurt and Liverpool. Would not be interested in dropping back in to the youth setup so a move this summer is unlikely
05 May 2023 09:37:22
ds is there interest in Sepp van den Berg or might he stay and replace a departing CB in the squad?
{Ed002's Note - He has had a lengthy injury so interest is unlikely.}
1.) 05 May 2023 13:42:18
I like Sepp and think he has a future at the club, shame about the injury but he has a small window to prove himself and maybe a Prem team will want to loan him next season.
2.) 05 May 2023 17:46:56
Counts as HG next season. Let Nat and Rhys go and give Sepp a chance to take their place as 5th choice CB. He's very comfortable on the right side so could also play on the right in in a 3.
3.) 05 May 2023 19:55:32
Agree with Pelican, selling Williams and Phillips and integrating VDB is a good idea . Can play right back as well.
4.) 05 May 2023 21:18:12
He's not going to want to be fifth choice, lads who in their right mind would?
5.) 05 May 2023 21:27:27
I can’t see a prem team wanting on loan after that injury. Being 5th choice next season is perfect cup games and under 23 games to give the lad a season to get back up to gear without too much pressure.
6.) 05 May 2023 22:20:29
U23?no way he's going to want to go back to that after 2 and a half years out on loan even with the injury.4th choice fair enough if Matip moves on but he's going to want realistic chances of games here or a loan somewhere else again. Was in the Schalke side before his injury and doing very well.
7.) 06 May 2023 06:20:43
I read that he scored on his return to the Schalke side and helped them to a 2-1 win. I would not be opposed to moving Matip on with VDB taking his place in the squad.
8.) 06 May 2023 06:26:51
Jude he has been out for over 6 months so it is highly unlikely he will be match fit to play again this season so who would want him on loan without him proving him self over the injury. So to start as 5th choice for us is about right and wants fully fit if he is good enough he can push to move up the pecking order but as things stand it does not look like we are going to get champions league football so am sure there will be plenty of chances in cup games for him to play and u23 is perfect to get back up and running.
{Ed001's Note - Sepp has played in Schalke's last 2 matches mate.}
9.) 06 May 2023 07:44:27
Or thanks Ed did not know last I see he got injured again after his return.
{Ed001's Note - he is back now and playing. They love him at Schalke amongst the coaching staff, he has really impressed them. I hope that means he has a bright future with us as I like him.}
10.) 06 May 2023 09:53:53
It won't happen but i'd gladly let Matip, Gomez, Phillips and Williams go if it meant getting a usually fit starter level centrehalf in to compete with Ibou and Van Dijk with Sepp as fourth choice. With us in the Europa there should be plenty of opportunity to rest the first choice pair.
11.) 06 May 2023 11:47:15
And scored too, I think ?.
12.) 07 May 2023 00:38:07
Rumours are Matip will be let go in the summer. I’m fine with as although he’s been a good servant he’s too inconsistent and injury prone to keep as an aging player on high wages (due to coming as a free agent) if he’s not going to be a starter, and I see Ibou as clearly ahead of him now. Sepp to come in as 4th choice for me and look for another CN if Homez wants to leave for games, which wouldn’t surprise me.
13.) 07 May 2023 08:09:30
Sepp was very good at full back for Preston, obviously not ideal to play out of position but a good sign that he can play in an unfamiliar position so well and showed he’s handy with the ball at his feet. Another loan will be good and then look to bring him into the squad, we need to be looking from within before we look to spend money.

Morning Eds. With it all having gone quiet on the transfer front I was wondering if you can tell us when the next Lamine Yamal will be arriving at Kirkby or should we all start cursing the owners now?
{Ed025's Note - i think waiting until the window actually opens would be the right strategy JM..
1.) 19 May 2025 09:32:49
Away from the transfer strategy and rumours Ed, congratulations on the last EPL game at Goodison Park mate
Memories last a lifetime
Enjoy.
{Ed025's Note - cheers R1971, it was a great day if a little sad mate..
2.) 19 May 2025 12:19:40
Ed, hopefully you lift a trophy next season. That will be one wild party.
{Ed025's Note - that would be great Stone, but realistically we have to learn to walk before we can run mate, we will be signing a good few players over the next couple of windows so for me consolidation is the key for now, a bit of a cup run as well would be good though..
14 May 2025 10:25:52
Ed001 and everyone, who's better and would suit us Aït-Nouri or kerkez?
{Ed001's Note - Kerkez is better.}
1.) 14 May 2025 13:27:47
It’s going to be a long Summer ?.
2.) 14 May 2025 13:35:22
Ed01, what was the name you called Ait-Nouri the other day? Ah, yes. Ryan "Ain't- Nogood".
05 Mar 2025 14:46:34
Hi Ed001! Hope all's well. Have you any idea what's going on with the U21s? I see they got thrashed again despite putting out a supposedly strong team. I know they're only supposedly interested in development but they seem to be having an awful season with some dreadful results. Any clue what people's thoughts are at the club or any plans to change anything?
{Ed001's Note - lots of their players are out on loan. Results don't really matter anyway.}
1.) 05 Mar 2025 18:06:26
Never really watched the u21s or understood how it works. Any real reward on winning the league?
2.) 05 Mar 2025 20:01:57
IMO I don't think you can measure the U21 by results. The good players will either go out on loan or be called up to firsts. Which makes room for the good U18 players to move up but naturally they will struggle at first. So results can be deceptive. Its also complicated by the fact that players who are big for their age can often dominate but won't kick on because they rely upon being bigger. But you can get a feel for which players are likely to make it. The way I gauge it is how many get called up or sold for good prices.
21 Feb 2025 11:00:05
Hi Eds hope all is well. I've had a look but it seems a while since any names of a possible defensive mid that Liverpool could target have been mentioned. Any likely candidates or players you'd choose yourself? Thanks!
{Ed001's Note - Slot doesn't want or use a defensive mid, so there won't be one mentioned. Zubimendi is a playmaker and that is the kind of player he wants. Shame, imo, as I think a Baleba/Ederson or similar would be ideal.}
1.) 21 Feb 2025 12:46:08
I'd like to think Slot will learn something about the Premier League this year and change his mind, at least to having one defensive minded midfield option in the squad. The last few games have been crying out for someone to put a foot in.
2.) 21 Feb 2025 13:38:01
We have one and Arne refuses to give him any minutes for better or worse it shows where his head is at at least.
3.) 21 Feb 2025 13:22:40
I really hope Endo gets more of a run towards the back end of the season, he won’t let us down and sometimes he’s exactly what you need in big games
Milner was often a bit part player for us but he always started the big games. Most obvious example was Fergie with Park Ji Sung. He’d always drop a more talented player for him when it came to crunch time
Sometimes you just need a workhorse with a strong mentality somewhere on the pitch. We need it on midfield and Endo can give us that.
4.) 21 Feb 2025 15:59:21
Slot has got us here challenging for title. He knows his stuff and if he feels he doesn't need a defensive player, so be it.
However I still feel if Endo was better ball player, he would have certainly got more opportunities. (at least to rest Grav)
Though I like Endo, I don't see a way forward for him under Slot.
5.) 21 Feb 2025 16:18:51
There is a glut of talent available on the market for holding midfield now.
Ederson, Baleba, Zubimendi, Hugo Larsson, Wharton, Elliot Anderson, Kokcu, Frendrup, Hjulmand.
I don't know if they're all the right "style" but surely there's no excuses to not bring someone in this summer.
6.) 22 Feb 2025 00:01:12
Babbitt, Kokcu isn’t a defensive midfielder of any type, he’s a weak scrawny floaty number 10 who couldn’t knock the skin off a rice pudding. Not the kind of player who puts the boot in or stands up when there is a physical battle. Has all the physical presence of a plastic carrier bag blowing about in a force 10 gale.
14 Jan 2025 15:31:35
Regarding Osimhen, for the record it wasn't his attitude that was the problem at Napoli. As with Kvara he fell out with the pricks (Ed001's choice of word) there and was treated badly. I've just got the following report from my Gala fan mate in Istanbul:
"yeah he’s doing quite well, started 15 (in league + EL), scored 14 and assisted 5.
he’s also very down to earth, which was surprising when he had to come to a league down his level. He integrated well with fans, young players, city in general. Keeps saying he’d love to stay if his transfer fee is sorted but ~ 0% chance of that happening at end of season. He was also forming a good partnership with Icardi but unfortunately the latter got injured and ended his season so now he plays mostly as sole striker. " All of which makes me very excited at the prospect of LIverpool replacing Nunez with Osimhen.
1.) 14 Jan 2025 15:51:15
Is this the same guy who demanded £400k a week to join Chelsea?
2.) 14 Jan 2025 16:26:20
Babbity, it was £500k. Even more down to earth than that.
3.) 14 Jan 2025 16:35:59
Sounds promising Jurgen Meister. Not at all surprising though, typically (not always cough Diouf cough) African born players are very grateful for their careers and very nice people. Look at Salah and Mane as prime examples. After the Napoli social media admin made a racist joke about him, who can blame Osimhen for wanting out of the club?
Does this £400k demand to Chelsea actually have any evidence or was it just clickbait sensationalism? To be honest, with the contracts they were handing out at that time, who can blame him for trying his luck even if it is true! He's worth at least 10 Mudryk's!
4.) 14 Jan 2025 16:36:39
Indeed, @Babbity.
@Jurgen, I work with an Italian who is born and raised in Napoli and is an of course, a die hard Napoli fan for decades. He told me last year about Osihmen and his agent wanted a ton of money (10m to be precise) to join any club after things went south with that despicable image with him and the coconut was posted.
He only went to Gala cos he fired his agent when he realised no one was going to pay that money and Napoli was already over him. Personally and trust me, I've seen Osihmen play since he was a teenager and love him to bits BUT I don't know if this is a good move for the club. Too much drama there, IMO.
5.) 14 Jan 2025 16:57:59
Maybe he asked for 400k really politely and respectfully?
6.) 14 Jan 2025 17:02:00
Maybe he just saw the obscene amounts that Chelsea were throwing around and felt that is what he would need for when they inevitably moved him to their bomb squad because they wanted to sign 7 more 18 year old strikers.
7.) 14 Jan 2025 17:11:50
Who cares what they earn. Never understood why people are so intrusive into others private lives.
8.) 14 Jan 2025 17:30:11
Maybe he asked for 400k Turkish lira.
9.) 14 Jan 2025 18:09:47
We were told that Mane was a lot of drama and that worked out pretty ok for us!
10.) 14 Jan 2025 18:18:47
Tristan, have you been living on the same planet as the rest of us? We are about to lose our 3 best players because the club can't or won't offer them the going rate, NO player at liverpool earns close to what Osimhen was asking in the summer, that's why people are talking about it, no one is thinking about stalking the guy asking for money for kidney operations or anything like that!

I wonder if we'd do a Mamardashvili and sign Hato this summer then loan him back to Ajax for the season.
03 Jun 2025 13:53:15
The passive voice doing a lot of work there. They are said to be expected to be lined up to be completed. Great stuff.
28 May 2025 08:12:27
Lolz Haizan aside from that minor detail SK makes an excellent point.
15 May 2025 15:16:48
Ed001 just if it's Diomande or Scalvini or Araújo or Mosquera or António Silva ;)
{Ed001's Note - someone like that I think. Yes. We have watched all of them.}
14 May 2025 09:40:33
Yes Hato please.
