Time to batten down the hatches. There's a storm coming.
Madrid have a gap to fill and some mulla to spend.
1.) 10 Jul 2018 18:56:42
Maybe that's what this window needed. The big deal to let the money roll. Personaly I just glad Ronaldo did not return to United, and as long as Real don't plan to fill the gap with any of our players Im happy! Let the dominos begin.
2.) 10 Jul 2018 19:04:29
Hope it's hazard.
3.) 10 Jul 2018 19:23:46
Hazard and neymar.
4.) 10 Jul 2018 19:49:35
They could spend money any way the just won champions league final and they are a juggernaut of a club with huge dough possibly the biggest in the world after us!
5.) 10 Jul 2018 20:54:13
Hope it’s debruyne.
6.) 10 Jul 2018 20:58:20
I think it'll be Hazard and Kane. Personally for Madrid, I'd go for Lukaku than Kane, but they'd end up paying far more than he's worth dealing with Utd. Spurs will have a price in mind for Kane and Madrid will probably pay it.
7.) 10 Jul 2018 21:07:40
Epicpotato have you not seen how Daniel levy negotiates?
Anyway now it's time for us to get dybala!
8.) 10 Jul 2018 21:12:50
Surely Neymar is leaving the toy league. He's way better than the French league.
9.) 10 Jul 2018 21:23:12
They will surely go for Neymar, and hopefully Hazard as well.
10.) 10 Jul 2018 21:20:38
Defo hazard.
11.) 10 Jul 2018 21:38:02
I read somewhere that Neymar used PSG move as a route out of Barca, and the Madrid move was agreed for 2019 more or less at the same time.
Hazard was also mentioned as a major target, Salah being an option they would consider if Hazard didn't happen.
Don't think it was on Euro pages, but maybe a link was posted there - a few months ago maybe.
Maybe Ed2 will have more info on it.
It was quite a compelling read, seemed to make sense though cannot remember all the details now, maybe one of the broadsheet papers - definitely wasn't a tabloid type publication.
12.) 10 Jul 2018 23:03:41
Credit to Ed2 (I think it was Ed2), ages ago, MONTHS ago he said RM would be changing things around with probably Ronaldo moving elsewhere, not them exact words but on them lines. Once again, spot on.
13.) 11 Jul 2018 00:05:45
Sorry Salah but you are incorrect, the Ed said on July 3rd:
{Ed002's Note - I was not aware of any rumours Andy but Ronaldo's future will not be in Turin. }
This is not intended as a criticism against the Ed or anyone else just an indication that nobody knows everything and this is important to remember.
14.) 11 Jul 2018 14:46:02
Kramer -
In response to a post from The Juicer regarding Barcas Dembele.
19 May 2018 11:20:55
{Ed002's Note - (cut) They know that Real MAdrid have a two year plan to completely refresh the squad (cut) }
(Cut all the Barcelona + Dembele bits out)
I remember a few months before seeing the same complete refresh of RM mentioned but found this one first xD might have been last year because I kept searching for "3 year plan" which i’m sure I had seen xD.
15.) 11 Jul 2018 18:15:54
If they go for Neymar surely a striker is thief next choice, with bale and asensio still there for wide positions.
04 Jul 2018 09:16:59
Yo eds. A bit of noise doing the rounds about vida from croatia, us and Everton making 12 mil bids.
Any truth? Think it would solidify the back line incredibly well.
{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of anything more than an enquiry by Everton for Domagoj Vida and certainly no bid at this time. I am not aware of any interest being shown by Liverpool at all.}
1.) 04 Jul 2018 12:08:05
To be fair Ed002, he does have a very dodgy hairdo. So it may be likely.
2.) 04 Jul 2018 12:46:02
No worries. Thanks for the responce.
For people disagreeing, do you not think he would give us 3 solid partners for vvd. Then he can partner Lovren like that have shutting out some big players if vvd is needed to rest.
3.) 04 Jul 2018 18:33:38
He’s always looked a solid no nonsense player with a rubbish hairdo.

controversial and likely to receive a nice amount of dislikes.
disclaimer: joe Gomez is capable of being a top 5 in the world cb.
content: we can not count on him - yet - nor can he be counted in our starting cbs. due to his injuries.
acl - 234 days out 15/ 16
Achilles tendon - 128 days out 16/ 17
ankle - 121 days out. 17/ 18
with a couple of months missed with other issues.
which for me means. give him a new contract and lock him in. just don't go into the season without bringing in a cb to rival him and Matip for the slot next to vvd because he is in the pecking order.
he needs a full season without injuries, playing cb and covering the full back positions before we can be secure that he is capable of playing a full season and these injuries are well and trully behind him.
just feel that Matip can't be trully trusted either with injuries.
Now this isn't prepare for injuries and all the responces about predicting etc.
It's fact both are hugely injury prone. massively. having 2 out of your 4 who have missed entire season's is just asking for long term trouble.
1.) 12 Jun 2019 19:42:29
We all know joe and Matip and lovern are made of glass and we know Joe has great potential! But for me we all said it last season if vvd had of been injured we’d of been up the creek without a paddle! We need a injury free decent cb I’m not sayin de Ligt or so but I’m sure there are reasonable priced others who can push joe and Matip!
2.) 12 Jun 2019 19:55:48
So we're ignoring the fact that his last injury was caused by a player and that he was otherwise healthy? funny that. He was growing, injuries happen. Very common for young players. The idea of bringing in another defender and pushing him back will only harm his development. There's no other way to swing it.
Why you'd want to do that to a defender who "is capable of being a top 5" is beyond me. I doubt we could even get a replacement in who's better. Not without spending absurd sums of money we don't have on a position we don't need. Matip and Lovren are both solid backups. If one leaves we replace them. Our defence was the best in the league. This is absurd.
3.) 12 Jun 2019 19:57:06
I don’t think he is injury prone, two (at least) of those were unlucky. And I’d want him with VVD to be our cb pairing for years. But I’d agree that if matip or Lovren leave we need a cb and ideally one good enough to challenge Gomez. Hopefully the scouts can find a gem out there.
4.) 12 Jun 2019 20:49:14
Not controversial mate you raise a valid concern Gomez will have to prove his fitness but he's only young which is the good news. He's also been unluvky but he will have time and dw I'm sure he's signed a long term contract recently.
I'd disagree about him covering full back though I'll put lightly that I don't think he's been great there and we all know his main position his CB he's proved himself in the 10-15 odd games he played there this season just let him grow there anf get some proper full back cover to push Robbo and Trent.
I agree with you there as well Jay if VVD was out for a run of games do a Lovren+Matip pairing again fill people with confidence even with Alisson behind them? I think we need a dominant experienced 3rd CB who can push Gomez but not get in the way of him progressing and step in if VVD is unavailable. Eamon, KB is not saying to replace Gomez of course not but imo you have to hedge not only against his injury record so far but Matip/ Lovrens who are not young plus healthy competiton can only help him. The problem is the CB market is not great and I think that Klopp sees Lovren as that guy in fact I'm sure Lovren would havs started the season if he weren't injured.
5.) 12 Jun 2019 21:32:01
Lets not get carried away here lads. First leg of CL tie against Munich the CB pairing was Matip and Fab and they coped admirably. The need for a new CB only materialises if someone goes. The debate about the need for a top class forward has more merit.
{Ed002's Note - I thought de Ligt was nailed on - and that came from TFKFB.}
6.) 12 Jun 2019 21:41:35
Matip and vvd were quality.
Joel performed superbly and played a huge part in us winning the cl.
It's not his or Joe's quality but there injuries that are the issue.
I'll just ask to see were people are at.
if there was a cb avaliable, with vvds quality. would you want him?
if not why not?
7.) 12 Jun 2019 22:04:13
Matip and Gomez both compliment van Dijk so a youngster to replace Lovren for me.
8.) 12 Jun 2019 22:33:19
I'm with you. he has all the tools, what wee haven't seen is his maturity and ability to handle pressure and rigors of a full season. physically he hasn't held up but that may develop fully for him in his mid-20s. I think we have a great player in Joe and, whether we get another "top" CB or not, hope he stays part of our squad.
9.) 12 Jun 2019 22:55:09
KB its not as simple as that mate it's not feasible that a player of that quality is available and if they were the cost not just financially but at the detriment of addressing other areas of the squad would be too high. We can't afford both.
Imo we aren't anywhere near the point that we need to take Gomez's injuries as big a factor as you're making out. I'll repeat I believe we need a reliable experinced 3rd choice who can step in if VVD is out.
10.) 13 Jun 2019 00:12:45
You can't buy players 'just in case someone gets injured' otherwise you have to buy someone for every position because anyone can be injured anytime.
It's not like any of these players are contributing to their own injuries by living/ training poorly and therefore increasing their chance of injury.
11.) 13 Jun 2019 01:08:48
OP, there is NOTHING to prove that Gomez is "hugely injury prone". That is simply baseless. Gomez has been injured majority of the time by OTHER players. It's not like he is just pulling up with consistent niggles for no reason. Perspective is needed here.
Second of all, Gomez is still young and his body is still maturing and trying to find itself esp. at the highest level where the demands are immense physically which takes it's toll on your body. He also has to consistently get back into shape after these injuries which won't help his overall physical development. This is perfectly normal with young players growing up in the game of football.
As for him playing FB, he should be nowhere NEAR there, IMO. He should fully focus on being the best CB he can be and not be burdened with playing at FB where it is more demanding physically esp. if we want him to mature physically at his best position which is CB. We need to get specialists as options at the FB positions. Enough of this chopping and changing positions cos just cos someone can play another position should NOT mean he should be considered as cover there, IMO.
12.) 12 Jun 2019 22:40:35
De ligt is nailed on Edo2, He will join Liverpool alongside Koulibaly, you know just in case of injuries.
13.) 13 Jun 2019 04:35:30
its always best to be prepared Greenflash, meanwhile over at old Trafford phil jones is awaiting the arrival of harry Maguire to form a rock solid all English centre back partnership that will leave the top strikers in the league quaking in there boots!
14.) 13 Jun 2019 04:54:35
When the need has come we have played fab and Gini as center backs and they have played well.
4 cb, there is no point in spending on another one.
Attack needs backup. We need two players this season an AM who can also work the wings and a Backup GK as migs would leave and i don't think we will see karius back.
I am quite satisfied with shaqiri and lallana playing that AM role and if migs can stay put we don't need that keeper either.
15.) 13 Jun 2019 08:44:46
Spot on. that's why im in a spot mate. we have to think of the possibility that he'll be injury prone.
16.) 13 Jun 2019 07:24:13
Well whether you are injured via contact or contact you are still injured. Every player goes through similar types of non-contact and contact situations. So, ergo, if a player is more often injured then potentially he is more injury prone than other players. Either way Gomez' injury record kinda speaks for itself. Hope his body matures, I'm sure it will.
17.) 13 Jun 2019 21:43:03
Faith, that is a very simplistic way of looking at such a nuanced issue even for you. Gomez is NOT more often injured than not. That is simply not true. For a young player who is still developing physically, it is normal for his physical make-up to not be able to absorb different levels of physical impact from opposing players during challenges and tackles. Therefore, he is simply going thru the growing pains of physical development, that's it.
They said the same thing about Ronaldo9 (O Phenomeno) when he was even younger than Gomez who at 19, was already bossing defenders bigger than him. They thought he was injury prone cos he kept having nagging knocks on his knees. It was simply a case of his body adapting to his abilities and skills as in pace, acceleration, stepovers, change of direction (at pace) etc.
By the time he was 21, he was in full control of his capacities cos his body had already matured. The same is the case with Gomez at least for the time being. We will see what happens.
18.) 14 Jun 2019 19:19:40
redwolf - we are saying the same thing. I'm just no averse to the term injury prone. it m ain't hurting anyone. Oh and his injury record goes - cruciate, Achilles, ankle, ankle, ankle missed almost 600 days of the season since 2015. Again it speaks for himself. agree on the hope that his body matures.
19.) 15 Jun 2019 10:33:01
Joe has been unlucky. ACL and fractures can happen to anyplayer at any time. I've done my ACL once in both knees but otherwise never had any injury problems. Regular muscle injuries would be more worrying for me. I feel Gomez will be ok in his career, lovren on the other hand has injuries that will repeat.
01 Jun 2019 23:25:59
We're free now. pressure gone. we've done it. klopps done it. Move forward now and enjoy it.
Just been to United page and it's so like is 6 years ago. desperate for signing, over shooting their potentisl impact. love it.
01 Jun 2019 07:43:39
So it just dawned on me.
This is probably going to be some peoples first experience with a manager that will choose to leave us, rather than us letting them go.
I don't know how I feel about that.
We need to treasure every moment. every game. everything.
1.) 01 Jun 2019 08:33:40
What?
2.) 01 Jun 2019 08:36:52
Strange thought pre champions league final! Enjoy the moment. Let the club worry about tomorrow. Personally only thinking about tonight.
Salah to be MOTM after being injured last year. Very excited either way!
3.) 01 Jun 2019 08:39:56
Wow chin up mate where in the final again.
4.) 01 Jun 2019 08:43:16
On such a potentially great day this is what you want to discuss?
enjoy the day mate cmon
Nothing lasts forever does it?
5.) 01 Jun 2019 08:55:21
I still well up when I remember the day Kenny left 😑.
6.) 01 Jun 2019 09:04:58
Klopp will be staying around for a while yet.
Things can change quickly in football but I think we have Jurgen for the long haul.
He has found his spiritual home at Anfield.
Enjoy the game.
7.) 01 Jun 2019 09:26:00
anything can happen in football. my goodness, when will people learn . . .
8.) 01 Jun 2019 09:26:05
Has Walter changed his name?
9.) 01 Jun 2019 09:34:33
Agreed tommy gunn.
10.) 01 Jun 2019 09:46:48
Blimey thought our Walter was bad worry about Klopp leaving when it happens there is a big game on today you do know that right
Up the pool.
11.) 01 Jun 2019 11:13:28
I think he means like we won’t ever fire klopp, but one day he will have to leave. maybe! Hopefully if he carries on like this he doesn’t want a new challenge.
12.) 01 Jun 2019 14:33:34
What a cheery thought for such a day! 😂.
13.) 01 Jun 2019 15:23:15
So he's going to choose to leave us before he gets the push?
It sounds like Jürgen is getting too big for his boots. We should get rid now- before the final- before he causes any unrest.
It'll also be a warning to his successor.
14.) 01 Jun 2019 16:34:17
OP, realyy? You're bringing this up now before the biggest game for LFC for the past several years? Get a grip, man. Focus on supporting the team thru out this game before coming up with such irrelevant topics that have no bearing on what we are trying to do right now. Good Grief!
24 Apr 2019 18:54:14
got a feeling that this is where city see the title being won and everything will be focused on them getting over the hurdle, which they will do to then forget they have to go and win the other 3 games.
it's coming home!
03 Jan 2019 15:35:39
Rabiot, de ligt, wan, Werner and a cover lb.
Sturridge, origi, lallana, Milner, Moreno, Matip, clyne and mignolet.
We could he sorted for years and years!
1.) 03 Jan 2019 15:51:11
That list is close to €200m for the lot. I don't think that is going to happen.
2.) 03 Jan 2019 15:58:10
Brewster lewis wilson camacho duncan jones glatzel
With a bit of luck and good developement we could already be sorted for years to come.
3.) 03 Jan 2019 16:13:53
Spend sometime away from football manager Kloppboss, you seem to be addicted.
4.) 03 Jan 2019 17:18:36
I honestly don’t think we will be buying anyone in January, maybe some kids but nothing for the first team.
5.) 03 Jan 2019 19:04:58
OP, believe it it will definitely happen.
08 Jun 2019 15:33:12
...................
{Ed002's Note - Wong page.}
07 Jun 2019 15:20:09
sane won the game against us. so yeah spot on!
30 May 2019 21:54:04
sign quality. quality finds a way into your team. simples.
30 May 2019 13:20:40
the signing isn't be intention to be back up.
that should never really be the case. buy better that what you have! or someone to push what you have.
Salah could go up top with firmino, mane and pepe behind him.
pepe could come in an oust Salah. no-one is untouchable and immovable.
We need proper rotation options.
Salah had a 10 game been patch this year. been nice to have had pepe.
27 May 2019 08:33:28
Matip, Gomez, llorente and vvd.
vvd might even get a rest, now and again.
stones, otamendi, laporte and another probably Maguire.
should have 2 world class and 2 solid cbs. that's it.
12 Jun 2019 21:41:35
Matip and vvd were quality.
Joel performed superbly and played a huge part in us winning the cl.
It's not his or Joe's quality but there injuries that are the issue.
I'll just ask to see were people are at.
if there was a cb avaliable, with vvds quality. would you want him?
if not why not?
11 Jun 2019 20:10:03
I'm just being greedy to be fair.
We don't really need much.
a cb like milenkovic and a cm like ndombele. just so they go to United and spurs respectively haha but they are top top players.
if we didn't sign anyone we would be sound, but we shouldn't sit on our successes.
07 Jun 2019 20:53:39
no worries.
thanks for the chat boss. speak soon!
{Ed001's Note - very welcome Kb take care mate.}
07 Jun 2019 20:26:24
I did say I wouldn't ask more but.
is it spurs?
him and fabinho would be a dream!
ah well.
{Ed001's Note - I don't know where he is off to be honest. Not off the top of my head.}
07 Jun 2019 17:42:19
that's one of my concerns moving forward.
rotation wise, it's really only Salah who could go up top with pepe on the right. as neither would really suit us on the left, there not like sane.
brandt would of been perfect.
I think pepe could be perfect for pushing Salah, and provide us with really prepared cover if he did decide to move on next year. Be the most efficient we have ever been!
I don't want to get too much out of you and I'll limit myself to one more question and it's only because I'm so damn stressed about it and that's ndombele. Us ed or elsewhere?
{Ed001's Note - sadly elsewhere. I really like him as a player.}
