Good Afternoon Eds,
Yesterday I saw a brief mention in an article elsewhere that Liverpool may be interested in Vinicius Jr. I used the search engine and found your only mentions of him related to the difficulty he's had at Madrid and how if Madrid were looking at Mane, it would be as a replacement for Vinicius.
Out of curiosity, does Liverpool have any interest in Vinicius Jr.? I know he's had a tough time at Madrid, but I do believe he is very talented.
Thanks!
{Ed002's Note - Vinicius Jr (LW) It has not been working out well for the player in Spain and Wolves have shown an interest in him but he would only be a second string to Diego Jota - and the asking price (circa €60M - although they may accept less) is seen as high (although they have quoted €80M to one English side who asked about him before). Arsenal have been approached but with Saka emerging on the left it is the issue of Pepe on the right and Aubameyangadingdong in the centre or left that needs the most consideration - but he shares and agent with Martinelli so there may be a discussion but Arsenal do not have the money to buy him. Chelsea have also been approached as he would provide an option to Hudson-Odoi on the left allowing Pulisic to move to his more natural right side. Others have been approached, and that will include Liverpool, PSG and Borussia Dortmund, but none would be in a position to look for more than a loan and Real Madrid need players gone to continue their rebuild. Real Madrid are taking the stance that they want him to stay and will not listen to offers - particularly loan offers. They think he will settle and the goals will come.}

Thank you Ed!

Good afternoon Eds. I saw an article linking Liverpool to Carlos Vinicius of Benfica. I didn't see anything with the search function, so I thought I'd ask about him.
Good goal scoring record this season, but I'd assume no interest at the price indicated, and also unless someone was leaving.
Thanks!
{Ed002's Note - I m not aware of any approach by Liverpool but he is having a very good season and would perhaps be a high risk option to Werner as a Firmino replacement. Portuguese pricing to fight off interest at something like €120M.}
1.) 11 Feb 2020 20:58:27
Thanks Ed.
2.) 12 Feb 2020 10:00:02
Would love Werner to arrive, but not as a Firmino replacement. Is that the only way it has a chance of happening?
{Ed002's Note - I would think so. Why would Werner join Liverpool to sit on the bench and play in League Cup games?}
3.) 12 Feb 2020 11:34:07
He wouldn’t your right.
4.) 12 Feb 2020 21:45:31
I am still sure that we will bring in another forward, to cover and to rotate with our front three, I think it will be someone who is fast and can score double figures, who normally plays on the right side, who is it?
{Ed025's Note - oumar niasse?.. :)
5.) 12 Feb 2020 23:16:48
I caught a bit of flak on here when I inquired about a replacement in the squad for Brewster prior to his departure. Usual sort of why sign someone to sit on the bench stuff. and yet Minamino was brought in. I understand that any deal for Werner would be on a different scale but believe we have progressed enough both on and off the pitch for it to be a possibility.
6.) 13 Feb 2020 10:08:18
Minimino?
7.) 16 Feb 2020 10:47:18
I went to watch Benfica v Braga last night. Vinicius was garbage, in fact there was not one player on the pitch that could get into a top 6 team in the Premier league.
01 Nov 2019 17:29:27
Good afternoon Eds. I saw a report on ESPN that Crystal Palace is looking to bring in Brewster on loan for the rest of the season. It also stated there were a few Championship teams interested as well (Bristol and Swansea as I recall) . Just wanted to see if there was any truth to the Crystal Palace rumor. Thanks!
{Ed002's Note - yes but Liverpool will look to block it.}
1.) 01 Nov 2019 18:30:03
Thanks for the reply Ed!
2.) 01 Nov 2019 21:25:08
Do you think it’s a good idea to keep him here rather than a loan?
{Ed002's Note - It depends if he is going to get game time or not - right now a loan would make sense for the player but I doubt the club see it that way unfortunately.}
3.) 01 Nov 2019 23:07:11
I think right now we need to be cautious as 1 or 2 injuries would mean he'd be needed in matchday squad, with league cup, fa cup and club world cup he should be guaranteed another few starts before January window ends, I'd think a loan opportunity should only be evaluated when we analyse our situation come then.
4.) 02 Nov 2019 07:17:31
I personally think we need to keep Brewster, especially with the fixtures coming think and fast between now and the end of the season.
5.) 01 Nov 2019 22:01:23
Agree, if he isn’t getting opportunities here he needs the game time! Do you think he would get game time at palace?
{Ed002's Note - Yes.)
6.) 01 Nov 2019 22:56:59
Ed. 002
Obviously he was injured last season but if this had been then it would have made sense. Right now he is our second reserve behind Origi as a forward. When Studge, Ings, Solanke, etc. were at the club he was way down the pecking order. Injuries occur, cup competitions occur, etc. While it would make sense for the players development to go out on loan it would be foolish for the club to let him go out. I think this one is a no brainer.
{Ed002's Note - Then it would be reasonable for him to want to move on in the summer.}
7.) 02 Nov 2019 19:02:42
If he can get regular premier league games it can only benefit him in the long run
A loan for me would be good.
8.) 02 Nov 2019 19:06:17
It's up to him but he's still only a teenager starting off his first season innvolved in the first team squad of the European champions. He knows he will have to be patient and I don't see the urgent rush for him to be demanding regular first team starting opportunites just yet, he'll get more game time as the season unfolds and it's up to him to show his potential. In 2 or 3 years our forwards will be passing into their 30s if they're all even still here by then, Brewster will only be 21 or 22 so I hope their isn't big pressure on him to feel he needs to rush his career.
If he's confident of his ability he'll want to stay and prove he's good enough. The likes of Abraham, Kane, rashford have shown that when they were given the rare chance in the team despite being down the pecking they took advantage with explosive immediate impacts. Brewster is still a kid who's coming back from a long injury. His career path doesn't need to be defined in the next year.
What I like is that klopp sees something in him to keep him around like he did with trent in his early days. He never wanted to keep Kent, Wilson, ojo around the team but he seems to have belief in young rhian which is great.
9.) 02 Nov 2019 23:51:46
Fully agree with that Har. It’s not like we’re holding him hostage against his will. He’s being paid to be a member of one of the best squads in world football. Why on earth would he want to go out on loan?
His focus should be on learning exactly the way the manager wants him to play and working so hard at it that he can’t be ignored. The fact Klopp wants him to stay around puts him at an advantage to the likes of Grujic as he’ll have to adapt if and when he comes back.
I’d also say that if he starts to throw his toys out and wants to move due to lack of playing time he’s not got the required character to make it at the top anyway.
10.) 03 Nov 2019 01:03:55
Yeah beckers but I don't see that kind of attitude being in Brewsters personality. He seems like a decent level headed kid so i doubt hed be the type to throw toys out of the pram. We seen lately with Camacho and Duncan, both 18 year olds who wanted to move on, I've no issue with any player making a career choice to move on but it's how they both acted publicy made me glad they're gone, when 18yr olds who've proved nothing start letting their false ego show so young then I can't think they will have the right mentality to succeed. Camacho publically bemoaning the decision of his manager to play him out of position is appalling lack of respect while Duncan publically slating the club shows me he's another kid with the wrong attitude.
Then we see the likes of origi, multi million pound international player who spent time sent out on loan, along with other periods where he was frozen out but he kept his head down and earned his future at the biggest club he'll play for simply by doing his taking on the field and never bringing the club or staff into public dispute. I feel Brewster is more like origi than the other 2 egos.
11.) 03 Nov 2019 07:04:17
We need to start finishing games off earlier so that we can give players a run out.
If We are scraping results late on and this will limit opportunities for fringe players.
12.) 03 Nov 2019 07:44:04
Might be the right thing for him to want to move, but wanting to hang on to him might also be the right thing for the club.
It's taken Origi a long while to earn his place in the squad.
A lot can happen between now and the summer; we know one of our front 3 wants away so I guess it's up to Brewster to prove his worth.
I guess he could always go on loan, as Origi did (admittedly not under good circumstances), and see where he and the club are in a year.
13.) 03 Nov 2019 10:47:43
I think if he got 10 starts this season he'd have to be happy, at the moment he's on course to do exactly that, while getting to train with the best team in the world. No problem here, kid and club are happy. a nothing story!
14.) 04 Nov 2019 10:57:37
Am I right in thinking he could go out on loan until January? If that's the case a decision should be made at the end of January based on what cups we are in. Got to imagination he will play the league and FA cup. Maybe a little in the champs league if we qualify early.
09 Mar 2019 15:09:28
Good morning Eds. I recall last year there were rumors that Liverpool were interested in Karim Demirbay. I used the search engine and noticed he hasn't been mentioned since the fall. I was just curious to know if there really was any interest and, if so, if that interest continues.
{Ed002's Note - Certainly Liverpool did show a brief interest in the summer after watching him last season on one or two of the occasions when he was fit. From my perspective it would be an odd one. Liverpool are not short on players in a similar position and Keita has been added in that advanced central midfield role so it is hard to see where he would fit in. Additionally, Demirbay has suffered a great deal with injuries over the past couple of years and that would have to be something the club would have to consider.}
1.) 09 Mar 2019 20:34:41
Thank you Ed. It's very much appreciated.
27 Feb 2019 19:22:07
Just a question for any of the Ed's that are available. Over the last few seasons, there have been some former Championship players that have become impact players for Premier League teams.
Are there any current Championship players you think we should keep an eye on, and are there any that Liverpool may be interested in? I don't get to see Championship matches where I am, so I thought I'd ask. Thanks!
{Ed002's Note - Dael Fry (CB) Liverpool has a declared interest in Fry as they look to bolster the HG quota - knowing that prices will increase - much is expected of Fry
I cannot say whether or not there is any firm interest in Lloyd Kelly (CB), but I can say that Liverpool have looked at a couple of younger CBs as I have explained and other potential options like both Lloyd Kelly and Aidan Wilson who have been "recommended" to the club by an "agent" who may be open to cutting corners. More than that I cannot say without some issues arising.}
1.) 27 Feb 2019 19:42:02
Ed2 - you are the wind beneath our wings sir! 😊
Thanks so much for all your incredible contribution!
{Ed002's Note - I guessed it would be "wind" based.}
2.) 27 Feb 2019 19:46:02
Thanks Ed!
{Ed002's Note - You are welcome.}
3.) 27 Feb 2019 21:00:48
Thank you for the info as ever Ed.
{Ed002's Note - No problem.}
4.) 27 Feb 2019 22:27:34
Ed2! good to see you around, thanks for the info, hows things?
{Ed002's Note - I am kicking my heels before leaving real early on Friday. Great result tonight and boosting the goals.}
5.) 27 Feb 2019 22:41:40
Who do you support ed 02? Just as a matter of interest.
{Ed002's Note - I have a soft spot for a few sides, Greenock Morton, Chelsea, and obviously Marseille. When I was a beautiful, pretty child with the most amazing hair there were no teams nearby. When i moved to England in 1981 my wife and I moved to Chelsea, close to the ground.}
6.) 27 Feb 2019 23:06:21
Hahaha ok thanx I don't know why but I thought u supported man United for some reason, balotelli is scoring still, and great result for Chelsea, greenock Morton I am not up on, cheers .
7.) 27 Feb 2019 23:49:35
Are you mates with jason manning? 😆. Admit you have a soft spot for us as well ed, the best fans in the land.

Just curious as I'm not familiar with the details. Is the Promotion playoff final a single match or 2 legs?
{Ed0666's Note - one off game
1.) 30 Jul 2020 07:22:10
supposedly the most valuable match to win in world football.
2.) 30 Jul 2020 08:07:16
Dbav, I’m not sure you have seen it but there is this new invention where if you pop in your question you get an instant answer, it’s called a search engine! 😜.
3.) 30 Jul 2020 11:30:06
I propose Google.
4.) 30 Jul 2020 11:54:49
RM I put that in my original reply but I think the ed's wanted to make it clear that other search engines are readily available 😂.
5.) 30 Jul 2020 16:20:10
Thanks Ed!
{Ed0666's Note - no worries dbay. Please feel free to ask questions in the future.
14 Jul 2020 15:40:24
A question for the Ed's if you are able. I was curious as to how much sporting good company contracts impact potential transfers.
In the US, in college recruiting, the shoe company that sponsors the program can have a big part in where the recruit decides to go. I was curious if endorsement deals have any role in influencing where a player may sign. In other words, would a player who signs with adidas be less likely at all to join a team in contract with Nike.
I'm just curious as to whether there is any correlation there.
{Ed002's Note - Not at all. They are not allowed to.}
1.) 14 Jul 2020 20:20:45
Thank you Ed!
07 Jul 2020 18:11:41
I do have to say, that as someone in the US that didn't get to watch so much of this sport growing up, I'm thrilled that the top European leagues are so accessible. I wish I had them to learn from as a kid.
I'm really enjoying the restart. Having matches pretty much every day has been nice and I get to listen to them while at work. I wish the leagues staggered their game days more so there is something on every day going forward.
1.) 08 Jul 2020 01:57:45
All of next season could be like the ending of this one, so you might just get your wish dbav.
Until we see supporters back into the stadiums, i guess this is the new normal.
26 Jun 2020 01:54:55
Robbo seems like he's a lot of fun to celebrate with!
{Ed0666's Note - Absolutely mate, Robbo seems like a hoot to go on the lash with. Robbo made me cry with laughter in that spoof corporate video the lads did for Coconut water. 😂
10 Mar 2020 16:51:05
Great to see Hendo will be fit for tomorrow!
1.) 10 Mar 2020 19:18:04
Spot on, Dbav. We need Hendo for this type of game. he is the heart and soul of this team. My only concern is how much match-sharpness will he have cos he has not played since the first leg. We shall see.
2.) 10 Mar 2020 20:30:54
He’s a super fit player so will be fine.
3.) 11 Mar 2020 01:10:45
I think it's more important to fabinho and Trent that hendo can play in his role that offers a balance and structure that fabs and Trent have shown struggles lately without.
4.) 11 Mar 2020 12:40:58
Completely agree, our communication off the ball seemed to have dropped when Hendo was out.
07 Jun 2020 17:07:41
Thank you Ed!
11 Feb 2020 20:58:27
Thanks Ed.
12 Dec 2019 15:00:22
Watching those Youtube clips, RBS score some beautiful goals, haha.
01 Nov 2019 18:30:03
Thanks for the reply Ed!
27 Jul 2019 20:36:29
If that's true, Arsenal are having quite a window.
30 Jul 2020 16:20:10
Thanks Ed!
{Ed0666's Note - no worries dbay. Please feel free to ask questions in the future.
14 Jul 2020 20:20:45
Thank you Ed!
31 May 2020 00:03:13
Great Article Ed. I remember the buzz around Sinclair's debut. Out of curiosity, where is he now?
{Ed001's Note - he is still on Watford's books but he has been going out on loan all over the place. He has not made the impact he should have.}
12 Mar 2020 11:15:23
Thanks Seano. Great write up.
01 Mar 2020 18:13:14
In my opinion, they lacked the leadership that Henderson would have provided.
