Just read we're interested in Depay if Mane leaves. I RTFP and his name was mentioned today but there was no reference to Mane leaving and the Ed's never commented. Please put this to bed Ed's on both fronts.
{Ed002's Note - If Liverpool do wish to buy Depay it would be at the expense of Mane I would think.}

No no no!

Could you tease us on possible forward additions if studge and Origi both leave please Ed? Or do you expect Origi to stay? Thanks.
{Ed002's Note - I suspect Origi will stay and Brewster will, I think, be integrated in to the squad.}

Depay for Mane would be a definite downgrade!

Sorry, to clarify. Does "Depay at the expense of Mane mean" there's currently an explicit risk of Mane leaving, or is LFC just staying ahead of this and planning contingencies?
Or, am I reading too much into your answer and it's just your opinion that adding Depay would only happen if Mane were to leave?
{Ed002's Note - Why is this such a struggle to understand? You all crave £100Ms of players to pack out the squad - why would Insigne, Hudson-Odoi, Hazard, Dybala, Depay etc. move to sit on Liverpool's bench? Where would the money come from to pay for them?}

I feel like Odoi is realistic as he is super young and wouldn't have a tranfer fee. also being so young id find it hard to belive he thinks he could join any elite club and be a nailed on starter straight away. whos to say shaqiri won't leave as he may have fallen out of favour with Klopp.? there would be plenty of very good players that wouldn't cost 100m+ and be happy to be part of our squad that is trying to win things. injuries, form and rotation is an obvious reasoning for good players to join us with realistic chances of plenty of game time. i dunno why ed2 keeps banging on about us having to let 1 of our front 3 go to add obvious lack of depth on LW and AM. players will leave but it won't be our stars, by liverpools choice anyway, so room will be made. Possibly Milner, Lallana, Sturridge etc. Liverpool is a much better fit for Odoi then Chelsea for game time and more importantly development. most players really as a matter of fact, as Klopp can generally bring out the best in players, so long as they have the drive to want to learn and improve.

Thanks for the note, Ed002. I try to follow the finances part as much as I can with the info I can get, and I'm not delusional about what we can realistically expect them to spend this coming summer. I appreciate your notes on the finances, as I have worked in finance for major 4 teams in the US for 10+ years. You guys do a great job cutting through the sensationalist junk that gets reported. I do disagree on putting Depay and maybe even Hudson-Odoi in that big money tier, but that wasn't the focus of my question.
I'm just confused on how Mane relates to this, and if the situation is where there's a *real* risk of him leaving (teams actively plotting to acquire him) or if you simply think someone like Depay won't be added unless Mane leaves, in general.
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool will not add £70M or whatever players to simply sit on the bench. I stuggl;e to see why this is so difficult to comprehend.}

I agree. I don't believe they'll spend that kind of money on a guy who will be support for Fimino, Mane, and Salah. Fee may stretch to 40-45M, but certainly not 70M. I also don't know in what world Depay is valued as a 70M player either though, but if that's the price Lyon have placed on him, then I understand why you keep coming back with his connection to Mane having to leave. All I really wanted to know though is if Mane may leave or not, independent of any interest or connection to Depay or anyone.

I posted yesterday that a friend told me Benteke was at finch farm. Turns out he was on the wind up trying to upset some blues. I only believed him as we live right by there. Judging by the disagrees you lot aren't as gullible as I am.

Eds any idea if we have a recall clause with Borini's loan deal. Incase of injuries etc. Thanks in advance. {Ed001's Note - I don't know yet sorry.}

Ally Cissoko loan deal completed according to LFC TV. £1m upfront and £3.5m to make the move permanent. Not a bad move IMO as it should keep Enrique on his toes. YNWA.

Not pretending to be ITK but a guy I know who visits Melwood regularly and always seems to get players attending charity events etc has claimed Suarez has agreed to stay 1 more season in the hope we get CL. If we fail the club has agreed to let him go for 40m. Not sure about it myself would just like some thoughts from fellow reds. Thanks.

If Allison goes Kelleher becomes no 1. He wants to leave for first team football. We offer him that he stays.

The answer to your question seems to be moan alone.

Harvey Elliot could be that creative midfielder given the chance.

Don’t think Ed002 was having a pop at the club more the fickle fans who claimed we have world class players all over the pitch who are now claiming the worlds about to end. VVD is a stallion though.

Personally think fab will be used as the emergency CB when needed so no new signings in that position.
{Ed0666's Note - personally I think we’ll sign a CB
