Ed1,

Really enjoyed reading your replies to a couple of posts this morning.

Out of interest, who would you like the club to sign in the summer? I know Klopp seems to like Brandt but to me he doesn't improve the areas that I think we need to improve (plus buying another attacker seems to mean less youth players get a chance) .

Thanks in advance.

{Ed001's Note - I would like Donnarumma, Tierney, Medel, but that is not going to happen. To be honest I think the most important signing we could make is a goalkeeping coach. That has to be the number one priority and Xavi Valero surely can't be the only top class one about, so why have we never replaced him effectively? Until we sort out the goalkeeping situation, we will always have issues defensively, no matter how good our defenders are.}

Thanks Ed1. Would you also try to sign a cb to play alongside Matip?

{Ed001's Note - yes, and a left back.}

Whats you opinion of Donnarumma ed? Do You think he could be a decent keeper in the premiere league at his age?

{Ed001's Note - decent? He is already one of the best in the world.}

Hi Ed001,

Where would you see Medel fitting in our system?

I know he has played CB in the PL before but it was at Cardiff. alongside Caulker. so it was woeful.

Would he replace Henderson in the middle of the park and push Hendo further forward? Or would Medel's stamina make him a good option further forward like Wiji is playing now?

He could always play CB again of course? haha

Cheers in advance.

{Ed001's Note - I would play him in midfield to provide some bite, but he is not going to be signing for us sadly.}

Got to agree with ed01 about the 3 players mentioned above. Tierney is the one that would be achievable but everyone is interested he absolutely oozes class for someone so young, he would be a great fit for us he is left footed, got game intelligence in defence and attack and he seems to have a great attitude towards the game . I would hate to see him at Arsenal or United. Then there is the scenario Southampton pay 12m and they then price him at 25m 1 and a half years later . I feel we should get in with a bid for him asap see what it'll take for Celtic to sell.

{Ed007's Note - It would be extremely difficult and extremely expensive for any team to try and sign Tierney in the summer. Celtic don't need, or want, to sell him and Tierney himself is in no hurry to leave the Club he's supported all his life.
When he does eventually move on it will be when Tierney has decided he wants a move and there will be no shortage of suitors with the likes of Utd, City and Bayern Munich already showing interest.}

Also, is there any reason Xavi Valero wouldn't come back to Liverpool?

As I understand it he is currently in China, so his wage may be an issue, but was there a falling out with the club, or has he just moved on?

Cheers.

{Ed001's Note - he left under a cloud.}

Can't believe some people think Medal would get a game at Liverpool at the expense of whom? Wijnaldum and Medal are two different players. He might replace Henderson but this page would run riot if that was to happen.

Would we have a realistic chance of signing donnaruma ed?

{Ed001's Note - not a chance sadly.}

I'll take Hendo anyday even though I love Medel as a player.

Medel would likely play behind Lallana and Hendo. Wijnaldum would then be back up. Medel has strength, can pass, has a decent touch and is a good strong tackler. Our midfield is crying out for a player like Medel. I would probably prefer Carvalho simply because of his age, LFC would get longer service. Shame neither would happen.

I take it your Medel Love in is still going strong ED001.
Remember your posts from back in the day, how hurt you were when Cardiff signed him and then when he signed for Inter after Cardiff were relegated.

{Ed001's Note - he has been just about Inter's only decent player since going there. I still believe we missed a trick badly and still need a player like that.}

Not a chance in heaven Klopp will drop Wiji from the starting eleven poolie unless ofcouse for rest or injuries.
