sunderland bid 8m for connor wickham.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 23:16:30
as much as i would like to see xabi alonso back at anfield, like many rumours have stated, i fear it is unlikely as he is 29 and therefore against the new transfer policy. so it seems quite unlikely for nesv to change the policy for nostalgic reasons.. not forgetting the fact we already have 5 cm's and seem to be close so signing adam to make it 6.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 23:13:19
any idea why things are gone queit ed i would have thought we were gonna get all the business straight away it would make me think we have finished our business in uk and waiting for international window to open

the freshmaker {Ed001's Note - clubs just aren't willing to sell at the moment, a lot is to do with the FFP ruling and clubs wanting to get sales during the next financial year. So that would also explain things not happening until July.}

Ed, in my opinion Martin Kelly should be first choice rb next season.He can defend and is excellent going forward.Now we are in the market for a lb and hopefully we fill it with quality.Then we are allegedly in the hunt for mata, downing, adam, payet, etc.So this leaves the question where doe's glen johnson fit in.I say sell him and he will be another big earner of the wage bill and he will get us a sizeable transfer fee.This money could go on other positions that need to be filled.RD.RED)

I have a sneaky feeling that this year will see 2 systems. One of these will be a 5 3 2 wing-back formation with Glen playing a more attacking role on either side.

hi eds just been watchin some videos of dimitri payet looks a really good player, are we interested or is it all paper talk?? how much would he cost??

cheers big ant {Ed001's Note - we are interested and he would cost under 10m I was told.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 22:54:49
haha you know Kenny and the rest of the staff cannot win can they? We all complained about the old regime (hicks & Gillette) doing every bit of business in the public eye. All the posts about how we wished we could all go back to the golden days of Liverpool being a closed shop, how we heard of a new signing the day he was getting his photo took at Anfield with the shirt on..
Now it seems the golden days are back with our dealings close to our chest and no word coming out of Anfield on transfer targets or proposed sales. So what do we do? Complain that we are kept in the dark...... you have to laugh!!!
Just like the Henderson deal we will know who we are signing when the powers at LFC choose for us to know and that will be when the signing is secure anything else is just guesswork.
Saying that I do love some of the rumours and read them all daily..

Hi eds great site,
We fans can say what we think but who do u think we will get ??
Please answer :) {Ed002's Note - We don't do that.}

Shaqiri -8million < u heard it here first

Minus 8 million, that would be a great deal for any player!

Apparently, whilst gerrard was away on his charity trip in portugal he and his fellow 'golfers' were at a certain venue and lionel messi was spotted at the bar, i am not saying anything substantial but given messi's 'supposed interview' post champs league final it seems he and a couple of the liverpool players have struck up a good relationship, make of it what you will
____________
I'm not usually one to jump to conclusions, but this means we are definately buying Lional Messi.

Mr E {Ed009's Note - I think he will certainly be given a few games next season, in a similar way to Robinson perhaps, I just don't believe he can be the option for right wing as 40 games a season would be too many for him.}
---------
agreed there ed. Give him 10 games in league/fa cup an low pressure matches.

Mr E

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 22:34:27
reading in a few places that we could be making a bid for Nolon Roux, now that would be nice if it's true

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 22:33:11
So excited till July 1st! Mata joining would be excellent as he offers pace width and can play as a striker, one of Spain's best players.

MooLoo

P.S. I've put up a notice by the Cathedral that I'm taking a trip to Italy visiting a lot the cities (Florence, Milan, Rome, Venice and more!) and I need a couple of people to come along with me, if anyone is interested please contact the number on the advert, if you pass the cathedral you can't miss it, huge great sign there for it.

Why do people keep making up stupid rumours about standard chartered forcing us to buy asian players?
They are a sponsor! They do not dictate transfer policy any more than we can dictate which customers they do business with.
I wasn't on this website when carlsberg were the sponsor but did anyone think we had to buy danish players to satisfy them eds?

Its ridiculous. LFC dictate transfers, NOONE else.

Mr E

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 22:28:54
Hi a
ll.
Just been given some transfer info from a source I trust.
Liverpool are to tie up a deal for Theo Walcott by the 1st week in July. This is the player we have been in discussions with Arsenal, not Clichy as is being widely reported. Eds, have you heard anything on this rumour?
NiRed {Ed001's Note - only that we were talking to Arsenal, couldn't find any more out than that.}

-----
Fingers crossed on this one, i think if we used him roght he could be fantastic, by that i mean as a striker where he can bennefit from his pace and the excellent CF behind him in Suarez. I hope this ones true I stated a while back, if we get him mata and adam johnson that would be fantastic, also a CB like Lovren or Varane and another goalie for a 3rd option then our squad would be top notch. What do you thikn ed??

me14 {Ed009's Note - I think Walcott is a terrible winger, but he has got a cracking shot and pace on his side. He's still young and if he could sort out his touch he wouldn't be a bad signing. I also think the rest of your signings are spot on what we need, but I think to expect more than one of Johnson and Mata is very unlikely indeed.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 22:27:46
Ed can u remember this post from me incase it ever happens if xabi alonso ever joins utd an I 100% believe he will never I will eat a White dog poo for all to come an see

21 Jun 2011 21:59:35 eds do use think rahim sterling could be the new left side player we need insted of paying 20 mill for one i meen the lad looks as anyone that i meen the lad looks as anyone that we are linked with what is your opinion thanks {Ed009's Note - he is probably not ready for first team football yet. If you rush a player in too young you risk ruining their development.}
---------
whilst I kind of agree with you a bit ed, I do also think that truly great players can handle it no matter how young. Giggs, ronaldo (brazillian), fowler, owen, mcmanaman, messi I'm sure there are many more. I say give him 2 or 3 games and see how he does, if he struggles he can always go back and no harm. If he succeeds then great

Mr E {Ed009's Note - I think he will certainly be given a few games next season, in a similar way to Robinson perhaps, I just don't believe he can be the option for right wing as 40 games a season would be too many for him.}

Hi Macca what has happened to the Charlie Adam transfer is it a no-go??

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 22:15:43
Ed, i think Martin Kelly should be first choice rb next season.Now we are in the market for a lb and i hope we fill that position with quality.Then we are allegedly in the market for mata, payet, adam, johnson, downing etc.So this leaves the question where do we play glen johnson ?Who i think is a great player going forward but his defensive play leaves a lot too be desired.Will we sell him ? It would be a big earner of the wage bill and we would get a sizeable fee for him.What do you think ed ?(RD.RED) {Ed009's Note - I don't think Johnson will be sold as I'd like to see him as cover for both right back and right midfield. It was certainly Kenny's intention to try him out on the wing towards the end of the season, but injuries prevented it.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 22:12:22
Is anybody else getting sick of looking on here and following sky sports all day and getting no confirmed info, let's just wrap up Adam wickham and downing and concentrate on international window..am hoping the marquee signing is juan but if it's not it doesn't MATA am sure Kk Dc will bring in quality Hulk, Turan, not Nzogbia

hi ed,

i have a good source that has told me that liverpool will make a bid for tottenham's danny rose?
---------------------------------------

i have a source that knows this guy is talking bollocks - watching him play. The lad is bloody dire, can't do a single thing right.

I would trade tottenham glen johnson for kyle walker.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:50:35
LFC announce pre-season friednly against Valencia, just one week before season begins to show off new signings!! maybe this is part of the Mata deal?? also a hint that there are some new faces in the closing stages of deals to anfield!!

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:48:13
anybody at or watch the mersey masters yesterday?

Paul Walsh looked 5x the player Ngog is now, and Patrick Berger would have ran circles around Poulsen. Henchoz is also pretty good still ;) Good to see Barnsey get a run about too.

We hammered Everton and won it in the end comfortably.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:46:49
so whats happening with all these so called ''nailed on transfers'' havent heard many rumours at all in the press about many of these players recently.. however this could be the calm before the storm (so to speak) as we seen in the past with liverpool, things go quiet for a week or so then all of a sudden we've signed 2/3 fairly big names. HOPEFULLY... Mata, Wickham, Dann and maybe Charlie Adam. (Alonso would be a dream come true but will it happen this summer>???)

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:43:34
Player in Player out:
POULSEN (MARTINEZ)
NGOG (WICKHAM)
DEGEN (SANTON)
SOTO (ZAPATA)
AGGER (LOVREN)
JONES (LLORIS)
AURELIO (CONTENTO)
Now for some wingers and other attacking options:
MATA
PAYET
ERIK LAMELA
LUCAS RODRIGUEZ
ALBRIGHTON
IF ONLY DREAMS CAME TRUE!!

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:43:00
On the Gerrard and Scholes nonsense a good littl-un will never beat a good Big-un so once and for all it's
Gerrard the best by at least 12" to a foot.

21 Jun 2011 21:39:20
i think kk going to stun us all
1) world class midfield
2) world class striker
3)top class defender
4) few up and coming superstars
these will be filled by names we not hitting on yet the man is a master

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:36:07
who is nolan roux please who is he

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:28:40
Im in Dublin , i coach at a league of Ireland team............ Dimitri Payet is the suprise option for the left , this deal can be done much easier and quicker expect this to happen

I was under the impression that Dimitri Payet was a right winger which may explain why he is a surprise choice for the left side. Doesn't say much for your coaching skills if you didn't notice this. BTW my cousin is on the staff at Derry City, perhaps he knows you............

you do realise there is a considerable distance between dublin and derry?although im not convinced by original post on dimitri payet i just thought id point that out, just because your cousin is on derry city staff does not mean he'll know this guy i know we're a small country but not that small!!..JG..

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:26:47
must buy MOUTINHO!!

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:26:09
Liverpool are the latest side to be credited with an interest in Brest striker Nolan Roux, according to France Football, and could move for the Frenchman this week.

The 23-year-old has attracted a plethora of suitors following a stellar Ligue 1 campaign in which he scored six goals in 28 appearances for the strugglers.

Liverpool director of football Damien Comolli is believed to be keen on Roux, with the report stating that a deal could materialise by the end of the week.

The striker has a contract with Brest that runs until 2013 and the French outfit will likely demand a fee of around £7.1 million.

Schalke and Bordeaux are also interested in the services of the Frenchman.

I havent seen this guy play but i dont think 6 goals in 28 games is exactly a stellar campaign (especially since hes 23 and not 17-18, anyone else think this is another ngog?

21 Jun 2011 21:22:22
Are we gonna sign any players in positions we need 20 mill for Henderson not only over the top but that's the least position we needed why not buy nzogbia and cissokho we'd have got them for 20 mill also is anybody gonna ever leave if ngog cole poulsen konchesky maxi need taking to the airport I will take them free of charge

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:22:07
Is not buying Charlie Adam and selling Raul Meireles a step back? ESPN fans player of the year last year i would love it if he stayed but i feel if a sufficient bid comes in he will leave................

21 Jun 2011 21:22:02
liverpool have just agreed terms with sissoko in a deal worth 12 mil. lfc have been looking at collins from villa dont be suprised to see him in red next year.

haha good one!

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:21:24
read today on ssn that e abidal is is holding out on signing a new contract in barca
some one posted earlier that he could be a target what do ye think? i think doubtful be we live in hope

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:18:35
Evening all !

just a quick vote,
agree= downing
disagree= nzogbia

love the site eds! addictive !

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:17:21
Manchester City and Liverpool are set to go head-to-head for Lyon full-back Aly Cissokho.

IN MY CASE ANY LEFT BACK WOULD DO

Thats what Roy Hodgson said.. "How do you think we ended up with konchelski"

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:07:42
eds, do you think we will get Dimitri Payet? and is he good? i have not yet seen him play properly! cheers guys, great site! {Ed001's Note - never seen him play but Ed002 has said in the past that he is a very viable option for the right wing position.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:03:26
Let's face it who haven't we been linked with, every friggin player under the sun..

Let's get a grip, if the best we're gonna sign is Downing and Enrique then we'll definately be winning the league and making up the 20 odd points to catch the Mancs.

Let's face it they wouldn't win the Sherwood Greenhouse Sunday league division Four..l..

We need to pay the price for decent players, we've already blown big bucks on untested youngsters.

The Americans spend much more on the red socks so let's not get carried away. 5m for Clichy, is DC taking the piff.

We've needed 2x wingers and a left back for years....
Why keep buying all these central midfielders...
Is it going to be the same as the last 4-5 summers waiting to buy the players we need ???


Big Roge......

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 21:01:36
Eds,
If there was a league table of 'banter' on your good good site, surely Liverpool would be well clear at the top ?
Though that ref ed002 is always booking and sending off our lads !
The Real KB {Ed001's Note - depends on what criteria you based it, there are more posts, but that also means more abuse and whines!}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:58:43
What wingers do you think we will sign this summer and which one is the most likely to be a success at lfc? LFC FOREVER :)

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:58:19
KK is very close to securing a little gem from Muzo in Columbia called 'Viridis Esmaraldus'.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:57:32
I'd be happy to just sign Xabi Alonso and Juan Mata this summer and a left-back, preferably Aly Cissokho.

Shame one or the other of the first 2 WON'T happen, more likely Xabi (not to happen), sadly. And Cissokho won't be here either, IMO.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:57:13
wickham-9million
adam-10million
downing-12million
and what do u think of wickham i havent seen him play before and would he be a strenght to the reds squad ? thanks ed {Ed001's Note - he offers power and pace.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:57:10
In Kenny We Trust! With the performances from the second half of the season under The King, and a few quality signings in the summer tranfer window we can hope to have a really good season. Qualify for the Champions League then go on and win it the following year back at Wembley!!!

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:56:12
just wondering all the rumours about gago for 10mill. do we reallyyy need another cm as weve already brought henderson and gerrard is back fit. shouldnt we be focusing on bringing in players for other positions ie. dl, dc, rm, lm and sc. your views pls?

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:56:11
TBH lets stop all this charlie adam talk, just sell aqulani and buy honda and the cm role with gerrard is done.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:53:20
Scholes 10 premier leagues
3 fa cups
2 champions league
2 league cups

Gerrard 0 premier leagues
2 fa cups
1 champions league
2 league cups

Tells you all you need to know Paul scholes is the best midfielder of his generation.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:52:20
Gago --- 11million
Adam --- 10million
Alonso or kaka also linked not sure aboout them but on lfctv Alonso got interviewed and he said he (but once he had won a spanish league title so maybe a apperance next year from the spaniard )

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:50:56
Any news on Zapata? Heard we were doing a swap plus cash with Poulsen?

A heads up to all LFC fans. Follow @damiencomolli1 on twitter. Very funny and provides an alternative take on all transfer related news. Worth a follow.

1 Jun 2011 20:27:50 As you all probably know, Liverpool have arranged a Pre-Season friendly with Valencia. From what I have gathered over the past seasons, Liverpool rarely play teams such as Valencia, but usually unheard of foreign teams. My Point is that when we signed Xabi Alonso from Real Sociedad in 2004, we played a friendly. When we signed Albert Riera from friendly. When we signed Albert Riera from Espanyol in 2008, we played a friendly. The list goes on including the likes of Josemi and Nunez. goes on including the likes of Josemi and Nunez Houpefully the same applies for this game, and that Mata joins!:) Very possible transfer and could be a marquee signing This is all from observation and is just a thought of mine

We did play valencia in 2003 I think, I know this because I attended the fixture. One year later rafa was our manager

just heard accrington stanley are interested in loaning out Jimmy Ryan a midfielder once a liverpool player and a f.a youth cup champion with the reds, not the youngest player but a bit of a creative star and also has had experience at the club.

1 Jun 2011 19:51:39 Liverpool are going to sign kaka and/or alonso. Youve heard it hear first- look at the positions rea Madrid are signing for, the manchester united alonso rumours have to come to light as its fergies way of trying to drive up the price of alonsos return and kaka will be the marquee signing
----------
I can tell you that both players are available at the right price (kaka) in particular. However there has been zero interest in either player. The unofficial line on alonso is that he is a valued first team member but not untouchable and kaka is considered surplus to requirements and can go as soon as somone coughs up 25m

Adam deal off, turning to kranjar instead from spurs for around 8M

Source: Caught offside.com

i for 1 hope this is'nt true, for 8 million pound?? we should surely up our adam bid, kranjar started only 2 premier league games, i know people give harry redknapp a bad rap but he's knows good players when he see's them, bale, modric, crouch, van der vaart, and so on and so on, so if he's fasing kranjar out theres a reason why, and the fact more than just a few premier league teams want adam tell you all you need to know, we should not miss out on adam, give em 11 or 12 mill, a few more top players and NOBODY will moan at 11/12 mill for adam when were in the top 4

just heard a rumour and that is all it is that xabi alonso is to hand in a transfer request in the next few days he and his family miss the city the club and the people of liverpool the person who told me said rumours are flying around the internet have u heard anything ed would love this to be true

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:08:38
My uncle told me he knows someone who is an farmer who so happened to be picking asparagus in his field when Damien Comolli's car broke down next to the field. He said the farmer approached Damien who appeared to be very agitated and was shielding something from view. It so happened to be contracts for Juan Mata and Connor Wickham. He also later spilled the beans on possible transfers for N'Zogbia and Xabi Alonso to Liverpool

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 20:07:18
The debate on Gerrard and Scholes is interesting in my eyes i would go with Gerrard because of his disipline.Scholes is more like Neville a tramp he missed a european champions league final because of it.Maybe Steven Gerrard will let him know what its like to lift the cup as captain.We all know what would have happened if utd were 3-0 down against A.C.

Hi ed you have got to admit all the talk about xabi alonso coming back and the fact we all no him and his family miss Liverpool that ther could be a chance he will I think he will stay a real Madrid for 1 more year what do you think? {Ed009's Note - I think he will stay at Real for at least another year too. Perhaps a 2/10 for a move this year.}

Lfc are signing me and my wife. I'm left footed and quite quick for a 50 year old. My wife thinks she could do a good job at left back. You heard it hear first. Thought this might make you giggle whilst waiting for more hot gossip. I love this site.

1 Jun 2011 17:48:44 I have heard that Higuain is to leave Real Madrid and that Liverpool may be interested. I don't personally believe there is any truth in this but believe there is any truth in this but surely he would be a good addition to the squad. What do you reckon ed? {Ed001's Note - I would be very surprised if they let him go, he was first choice striker.}
-------------
I can tell you with 100percent certainty that higuain will not be going anywhere while mourinho is in charge. There are a couple of players at madrid which are untouchables and mourinho has 100 percent faith in. Higuain is one, pepe, ramos and carvalho are others.
Trust me higuain is staying.

Hi ed, was doin some research today on bundesliga strikers and i came across a talented one in the form of mladen petric, i looked up some compilations and some him play some quiet amazing europa league quality football and was wonderin can we sign em as a back up striker as he is cheap in fifa

please post and reply
your fan.. mladen number 1 .. commoli {Ed009's Note - Unfortunately I don't know much about the player, but it is important to know that value in FIFA rarely reflects that of real life - you can get Sanchez for 19 million - and that compilations are risky. I hope that your wish is granted though!}

Charlie Adam in £11 mill
-----
Based on what, as he has been spotted at melwood about 600 times in the last 2 weeks, signed 45 times for fee's ranging from 8 - 12 million, so come on big shot, where is your adam signed for 11 million pound proof because it's getting EVER so slightly boring now

This Player Is Not good Enough To Help Us Win Anything ...

Ok, Looks good for Blackpool, But This Is Liverpool!

Can you stop with the Alonso rumours, jesus christ. There is no chance on this earth he is returning to Liverpool. FFS. Sad sad sad people. He has moved on. Get over it. Charlie Adam (who is 5 years younger than Alonso) can fill the role perfectly. Alonso has gone. Wish him well and stop jerkin off over him.

Jesus christ was at anfield ! also where did he move on to heaven and waterlooo ville ??

I know that we have to be patient on the transfer front however I think it is important to get transfers in as soon as possible so the lads get a chance to train and play together during the pre-season friendlies. If the Downing and Adam tranfers take much longer I would bin them off as let 's face it there are talented other players out there, especially for those amounts of money.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 19:21:12
Wish people would stop knocking people we're being linked to. Kenny and Comolli have great track records so trust them. How many people had heard of Aldridge and Barnes before Dalglish signed them? How many people had heard of Van Persie, Henry, Pires or Modric before Comolli recommended them?

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 19:21:05
You so called editors don't have a clue about any transfer activity at anfield. Some of the stuff you put on as notes is laughable. You will see in the next week what I mean; I.e. Some players coming in not mentioned yet. Red army. {Ed009's Note - you'll be the new Messiah when one player not described as 'nailed on' by us signs - I personally can't wait.}

----------------------------------------

Eds, you should start preparing this fella his own page, 'ala' Macca. {Ed001's Note - oh I am sure we will need to in the future, he is obviously extremely 'In The Know'.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 19:19:33
Just seen John O'Shea's name mentioned in £5 mill deal, source The Irish Independent, surely we're not lowering ourselves to this.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 18:59:09
would be happy with LFC signing, Boruc (gk), Cissokho, Cahill, Downing, Elia, A.Johnson and Daniel Sturridge (in my opinion better than Wickham).

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 18:58:24
Gerrard by far a better player then Scholes.Indeed Zidane did say he was the best midfielder in the World.And Deschamp say he'd carry him on his own shoulders for him to come to Juventus.Gerrard isn't gonna say i'm the best he aint a big head.Won more matches, better tackler, shooting, free kicks, can run.Long passing just as good if not better, suppose any 1 can pass a ball 5 yards though like Scholes could do brilliantly.Any Utd fans disagree, get your head out of your asse's for just 1 hour. Jonny Boy

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 18:51:41
seeing alot of recent talk on here about whos better gerrard or scholes. alot of bias based on who supports what club from what it seems. as a unbiased birmingham city fan i personally believe in their prime scholes was a better player but gerrard is a more important player. without gerrard liverpools midfield looks average and he is a more important player to liverpool then scholes is to man utd. scholes is a greater shooter and passer with the ball but gerrard is better with the defensive aspect of the game.

Fat Charlie Adam and Stewart ( 1 foot ) Downing, seriously? There's £25 million we're never going to see again, if these players come in, i think we may have to question KD an DC's sanity never mind their judgement.

Anyone else sick of the transfer window? I just want the season the start!

Just read this on caught offside from the other day I know this site talks $ #te but this just proves it

Former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso is being linked with a move to Manchester United, according to Spanish radio station Radio Cadena Ser.

This would be funny if true tho old whiskey nose bein told where to go from a true red

21 Jun 2011 18:23:58
I Dont Quite get it. KK said we only buy players who are better than what we allready have. We are being linked to strikers like Jeffren, Bojan, Wickham, Higuain, Sturrige, Barrios and so on. But we seem to be landing Nolan Roux. (who is he). In midfield we lost marvoux, Johnson seems hard to get, Downing to expensive, Adam not sure, Payet wont let go by club, Eljero Elia probably to Chelsea and i can hardly see Mata or Hazzard choose us over other clubs. What are we gonna end up with. ? . Defense, we were linked to Davide Santon, Michel Bastos, Clichy, Coentrao, Aly Cissocho, Sakho and more. None of them seems to end up at Anfield. When it comes to selling players, we havent exactly got rid of our junk either. ( Konshesky, Poulsen, Jones, Jovanovic etc )
I know its still early, but were kinda heading in the wrong direction... We need to buy some big profiles too, to gain some morale boost and become a more attractive club for big names for later.
We have to keep our fingers crossed. YNWA

why doesnt liverpool send scouts to south american nations to unearth real gems.... man u got chicharito , barca got messi , ajax had sureze, ac milian got kaka,
now chealse get lucas pizaion ......
i hope we stop paying astronomical prices to crappy players and expct them to become great ......

BREAKING NEWS

During the summer months I do a little work as an international chlorine slaesman, the money's not great but I make good commission and I get to travel all around the world, I do alright because the company I work for is very competitive and we have the pureist chlorine on the market, today I was in the luxurious resort Burj al Arab in Dubai closing a deal that will cover the cost of my new 3rd Kit when who should I see sitting by the pool working on his crochet? None other than Andy Carroll, now I know Andy from my time living in Kevin Nolan's house so I went over to have a chat with him, he was working on a lovely multi coloured blanket, I commented on his exquisite hook work and he told me it was a house warming present for Jose Enrique who has bought a house on the Wirral, he is currently on holidays at a mystical creatures convention on the Indonesian Island of Lombok and he will sign for £9million pounds when he returns in a couple of weeks time, he's a big fan of mystical creatures and apparently Enrique has decided to sign for Liverpool because he wants to investigate whether or not Jay Spearing has any connections to that little creature in the film Mac and Me. Refreshingly reliable,

21 Jun 2011 17:43:09 Gerrard is better than scholes Wat r u on? I think xavi and zidane know abit more than you mate. Gerrard even said scholes was the best to of played in the premier eague

--------
I think you'll find that zidane once said steven gerrard was the best midfielder in the world, at a time when kaka, scholes and many others were still prominent.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 17:47:23
Hi Ed, just watching England U17s Raheem Sterling is gonna be some player for us the lad has the potential to be a super star & he is bloody rapid & very direct, on another note while in my sickbed suffering from man flu, the lack of transfer activity from LFC which is not a bad thing as the old saying"no news is good news", the Alonso back to LFC seems to be gathering a bit of pace be surprised if this comes off, prefer Xabi to Adam , also trawling through the internet came across a few snippets regarding Agger of to Roma £8-12Mill also Skrtel to Brian Munchen £8mill.........what do you reckon


As the player/manager of Brian Munchen, in a local Liverpool 5-a-side league (playfootball.net monday night champs check it out if you dont beleive!) i can indeed confirm we have reached and agreement with Liverpool for the service of Martin Skrtel

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 17:43:09

Mr e {Ed009's Note - I was not'bashing' Aguero either. I apologise f I seemed not to like the player; I if I seemed not to like the player; I do. But I don't think he is quite as good as has been argued by some, and not worth the wages!}
---------
no need for apologies ed you were stating your opinion as was I. I agree on the wages, though if you don't pay top dollar you don't get top player, zidane brazillian ronaldo platini, name me any top player who wasn't paid extortionate wages. We don't pay it and perhaps that's a contributing factor into why we haven't won league for so long. If stevie asks for 250k a week will we want him gone?

Mr E

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 17:40:08
You're clueless if you think Pogba and Morrison are even in the same league of talent as Sterling, Suso, Wisdom, Coady, etc.. Ha ha ravels the best by far if he sorts his attitude out

Ok guys stop dreaming if we manage to sign Downing, N'Zogbia, A.Young, Adam, Wickham and Enrique would be incredible success. Mata will not leave Valencia.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 17:36:21
Hey, Ed! Do you think LFC will buy a Right winger?,

I don't think so LFC might buy versatile two footed wingers, but they will play on the left side, as Henderson & Kuyt will be playing on the right! If Blackpool is just playing games with LFC , no need of paying above our valuation , i will pay maximum 9M for Adam! IF Oyston don't like it he can f...k offf! No need of buying another CM as we now have Hendo! Downing, Wickham, Mata and a Left back would be enough i think! Want Konchesky, Poulsen, Jovanovic, Cole to leave + Ngog who will join Sunderland!!

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 17:32:50

21 Jun 2011 17:29:12
Connor Wickham
Charlie Adam
Stewart Downing
Adam Johnson
Juan Mata
Aly Cissokho
Mamdhou Sakho

Thats in order, with Wicham being the first to sign.

hi eds only second post on here great site addicted! do you think theres anything in joey barton and jon rise being with stevieg other than the great charity event as theyve both been linked with lfc? thanx steviep48 {Ed009's Note - I doubt either player will be making the move. If Kenny wants to straighten out Carroll it would perhaps be foolish to bring an aging Barton in, and Riise is too old to be considered a left back solution - he is bordering on 30.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 17:20:41
not a rumour as such just my opinion.
i think we should settle for downing, zapata, wickham and one or two other buys.

this may be contentious but i dont see where charlie adam fits into the LFC starting XI, for me lucas and gerrard are the starters and i cant see KK pushing stevie g back out onto the wing like rafa did.

Thoughts ed? {Ed009's Note - I think the three signings mentioned wouldn't be half bad, but I think we can hope for a few more as well. I believe Adam would fit in well, we don't have a deep lying passer at all anymore.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 17:20:17
This is not a rumour- Liverpool have suspended two members of staff for leaking information on transfer dealings at Liverpool football club. This is a firm message to all staff at LFC to remain from leaking information to friends or press. Any person who posts on here claiming to have inside information from Liverpool are in all honestly probably full of S***. Looks like all of our information will have to come from other clubs when we have made approaches for their players.

That has to be the worst attempt ever at a wind up, nice one, I really never knew anyone could be quite that poor at it!}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 17:09:50
Liverpool to sign Dejan Lovren for 3mill , highly rated young Croation CB , a move for Scott Dann could also happen and Gael clichy , the 3 players could only cost 20mill in total , this would represent good business, an expierence premier league lb and 2 very good young CB , with jamie carragaher getn on and Agger injury prone , and skrtel suspect at times and prone to the odd knock or two ..its reralistic to think we need to make 3 or 4 big changes at the back..i personally hope Skrtel is sold and replaced , plus we need to sign a replacement for carra ..and we deffo need a proper lb , aurelio aint good enough , Agger is better at cb ..

-----------------
Yes i am pretty sure skrtel is prone to the odd knock when he played every game for liverpool this year :/

Afternoon Ed with Sanchez now sorted with a club I think Mata will become of great interest to, amongst others, city and chelsea. However, even if we don't get Mata or Adam or Downing I still believe KK will bring in players that will be right for the club, probably names we haven't talked about and possibly still a name that would be considered "marquee". Would you concur?

Chris in Tamworth {Ed009's Note - I definitely would. There are far more wingers with talent than those three. Vargas would be a fantastic signing in my mind.}

 

 

 

 

Liv-pool z-n {Ed009's Note - you're right mate, it won't be posted. Not until you make reasonable statements, which are backed up with evidence anyway.}

----------------------------------------
I am neither arrogant or disrespectful to any other clubs coaching abilities just stating that he has been given a better chance at LFC than QPR, were there any QPR players in 2010 world cup squad? No, were there any QPR players in the u21's squad? are there any at the u17, s?, in no way do I attack any player that plays for LFC, I have the right to voice my opinion & finally any abuse will be directed to you & your kind you think just because you run/monitor this website you think you can get away with being disrespectful & abusive to other readers/posters & not be challenged on your views. {Ed009's Note - why are you addressing people far more informed and more objective than you as "you and your kind". I'm far more worried about what kind you are. If you are offended by anything on this website you are always free to leave, in fact I'll make it easier for you, your ip is being banned.}

do u eds no of anyone coming in everytime some1 asks u dont no anythin so do u have sources or not {Ed009's Note - yes the Ed's have sources, some very good ones, but even kenny doesn't know if a player is coming in or not until they do so quite clearly we can't say "this player is joining" because they are never 'nailed on'.}

Hi Eds,
KK has an impressive record of unearthing gems of players from lower leagues ie Aldridge and Houghton and developing
Them into class players. I know all the uasal 8,000 names we are apparently interested are been banded about at a cost of 5 billion, but do ye know if we are monitoring any potential gems from lower leagues?

Thanks Eds,

Rebel_Red {Ed009's Note - apart from Wickham, no. Chiefly because it would be far easier to conduct a transfer in secret with a lower league club due to an absence of huge agents trying to drum up interest.}

----------------------------------------------

Hey ed just wondering if we were to be looking at players from the lower leagues for kenny to develop then who do you think we would be targeting? I personally feel that if we were doing this we should target Adam Le fondre, George Boyd, Adam Lallana and Moshini from south end!!

rebel red says kenny unearthed aldridge and houghton.they had already been playing in same division as lfc and aldridge had already scored over 500 first class goals by then.where do these people get their info.sorry eds for being picky but i sometimes wonder how many of the people posting on the lfc rumours website are actually reds.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 16:22:00
about the downing and carroll pic its actually not fake I totally thought it was fake, its not. if you have a computer that can zoom in then get a good pick (without all that crap on it), zoom in and you'll see its 4 fingers with the tassels off the scarf hanging over his index finger.and san miguel is a spanish beer so there in spain

I wasn't the original poster to the above but the eds did say marveaux had done a medical and was signing and he went to newcastle.seems like a bit of a slip up. Otherwise they're pretty gd.

Aguero to Juventus, for only 20 million, reported by Italian reporter on talksport {Ed009's Note - oh if TalkSh**e says it...}

Pardon me ed009 for posting a rumour I heard, at least I named the source {Ed002's Note - The offer from Juventus I am to is 35.5M euros. A lot more than £20M.}
___________________________________________________________________________________

35.5million euroes is £31, 353, 422.50 far from £20million that the original poster said.

Next time I'll just post that Aguero is definitely coming to lfc.... Misheard the price, that's all

By the term Youth you are more likely to mean U17 or U18, you should know because looking at what you have put, you are in this bracket!. Just because we lost one game to you in the Fa Youth cup by the odd goal, doesnt mean that we havent a good Youth team. Dont forget a month later we beat your Youth team 6-0. How many of your youth team have made the first team squad, we have 4 already, Gobs**te!

Another brainy liverfool fan I see. Im not saying you haven't a good youth team just that it's not the best in England. Four players in how many years? One things for sure ravel morrison and paul pogba are way ahead of the talent in your youth ranks. Next you'll be telling me gerrards better than scholes

Ed002 and a couple of other posters gave aguero a bit of a bashing earlier pointing out that he is 4th choice striker and never gets more than 20 goals a season.

When we signed torres he never got more than 18 goals a season at atletico and was not first choice for spai. (Still being behind raul at the time)

Saying he is 4th choice for argies when they probably have the most attacking talent in the world is unfair and lime saying mascherano 4 th choice for barca in midfield. It does nt reflect the players ability at all. Aguero is an excellent player and I would've been happy to have him at liverpool in conjunction with carroll and suarez. As for his goal return, how many strikers would score lots of goals playing for atleti? Forlan won golden boot before he moved there now hea rubbish...again haha

Mr E {Ed002's Note - Could you please point me at what I said about Aguero when "bashing him"?}

Ed no dis-respect to you, you run a great site but our chances are much higher than that according to my sources which are pretty reliable. I'm giving it a solid 7/10

My source tells me that Charlie Adam is 100% not joining now. Blackpool are holding out too long and Dalglish will turn to other options. Banega has been mentioned along with Honda but I'm told that Liverpool are considering a move for Alonso and are making him their number one target for centre midfield. NESV appreciate the fact that while Alonso is over the ideal age, he has such a history with the club that he will be a very good investment due to his unbelievable passing skills. Look for them to make a bid of around £18 million this summer and if Real say no then you can be pretty much assured that Xabi will be returning home next summer.

---------------------------------

This was believable until the point you put the bid was going to be 18Million, not a chance meight.

hi ed, in your personal opinion, who do you think liverpool will sign in this transfer window. pls answer. {Ed009's Note - I do not want to be haunted by wrong predictions but I think we will sign Downing and Adam. Along with that there will probably be another winger and a left back who i believe will be 'surprise' signings (likely from abroad) and a striker, who could be Connor Wickham.}

Aguero to Juventus, for only 20 million, reported by Italian reporter on talksport {Ed009's Note - oh if TalkSh**e says it...}
-------------------------

There is no way athletico will let aguero go for just 20 million, if his price was that low then I doubt all the main clubs would have any problems with his high wages as they would be getting him for about 20 million less than expected anyway.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 06:25:53
To ed002, you mentioned 2 suprises, any hints. Yes I know they wouldnt be suprises if you told us but you must know something?

transfer window is proving to be so boring so far, it's obvious all teams are'nt rushing into the window, we have made 1 signing and since henderson's arrival there has'nt been so much as a sniff,
if like most people say "player arrival is imminent" then it would have happend, every media reported last week tht downing and adam would both be LFC players by the end of LAST week, at least they know about as much as we do about LFC's transfer business, if LFC wanted both those players by the end of last week their picture would have been on LFC.tv with lfc shirts by now, we need to be patient, but man this site does'nt help with all the 'just seen' and 'player to sign tommorow' posts, lol, it's very addidtvie though !!!

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 14:58:15
Aguero has signed for Juventus in a deal worth £20m plus a player going the other way. cant believe how cheap they have got him! that can end all the aguero talk...finally. Ed do you know if we ever showed any interest in him?
I85 {Ed009's Note - we probably showed some light interest at some point but the transfer was never viable. He has never scored more than 20 goals for Atletico and commands wages far above his standing as a player. If his ability was as great as his ego he'd be the best in the world.}

spoke to ex liverpool player, who still is well in at the pool, he told me that Mata will not be joining Liverpool, but some are quite happy to let it roll on, Mata is happy at Valencia and all the talk of a financial crisis at the club is rubbish they sold Villa and Silva and payed off most of the debts, so stop posting about Mata not going to happen, he did also say that Downing is not the target, Nzogbia is who they want, not going to say facts or any rubbish like that, this is what I have been told by a player still in the know at the club

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 14:53:15
if the picture is real than at least it means andy is happy to play for us (which was heavily doubted before... you remember the tist-fight rumour?). having said that, he also parties with rooney who hopefully won't be joining us (though i appreciate him as a player).

Ed who do you think we will sign for left back. Out of ten what the chaces of baines comig to anfield? {Ed009's Note - Baines is a 3. I think we will see a left back come from abroad, and I think it will be a surprise. Vargas is a possibility, but has many big clubs chasing him. I would like to see Cissokho or Angel.}

Ed 9, whats ur opinion on hazard? From what I have gathered, DC is a fan, as am I. With lfc expected to invest heavily this summer, surely hazard, one of the most exciting prospects in European football taking into consideration his age and potential, surely he is worth paying 25 million for? Lille have said they would consider selling if the right offer came in. I was just wondering what your stance on him is? Do you expect him to leave? Thanks mate, keep up the good work. {Ed009's Note - Firstly I think he is a fantastic player, with the world at his feet. If the lad (rich seeing as he's older than me!) can adapt to a proper league he could be a world beater. Comolli too is clearly an admirer, and asked to be kept informed of his availability by Lille. Unfortunately though the player is unlikely to be interested in a move at this time; he wants Champions League football, and his ideal destination is Spain, to one of Real or Barca.}

There's some great rumours on this site and one being Alonso coming back - I really can't see it happening or that he'd even consider signing for United for that matter! He was superb for Liverpool and left in rather acrimonious circumstances...which is a shame as I feel he felt let down with the way Benitez handled the supposed transfer of one Gareth Barry. Xabi was with us for some 5 seasons and, despite a slow start, ended up being a brilliant playmaker for us.

So here lyeth the question gentlemen...Xabi is 29...if there was a chance he'd come back to Anfield...should KK sign him?

Jonny Boy {Ed009's Note - if you want my two cents - yes, if he can be got for less than 20 million.}

To all the gobs**tes using the verb photoshopped

If you open the picture in PS (I use CS3 still) use the marquee tool to select the area in question.
paste in a new layer then increase the image sixe to 500.
The photo clearly shows 1 hand with tassles.
So little boys who know nothing about the actual program called photoshop shut up and stop commenting on something ye know nothing about.

Few, I thought you were talking about Stephen Warnock (The QPR) manager for a second there. Cause I don't think he has the legs anymore. pmsl! {Ed009's Note - you do know that Neil is the manager, and Stephen the Villa left back, right?}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 13:45:31
@Ed001

There's no chance of Rossi? Is it because a)he won't be interested in us or b) he doesn't want to leave Spain?

I included him as I figured we a) looking for that young, dynamic forward, b) he fits the bill, c) we can afford him and d) his move to Barca is seemingly dead in the water (or is it?) as they're closing in on Sanchez and they're fairly skint.

Or is the move to Barca still on, ed? Last I heard was that Barca had halted negotiations for a week.
If Rossi's still to come in, they gonna have to sell Villa, and I really don't see that happening, at least this summer. Who's gonna fork out £25m-£30m for a 30 summat well on his last legs and with no resale value whatsoever? They might be dumb, but City would know better this round.

Anyway, ed, who do you that fourth first team forward will be?
As I said in my earlier post, I expect two strikers to be bought: one for the first team and the other a prospect (Wickham) who'll be loaned back to Ipswich.

I don't think we're (seriously) looking at Llorente and Aguero. I expect both to end up at Real. Falcao will likely join Chealsea or Spurs I think, with Benzeama perhaps moving to Arsanal, United, City or Inter who most of can give him starting guarantees.

That would leave Givalnido de Souza, Ezequiel Lavezzi and Gonzalo Higuain as the other realistic and proven/fairly proven forwards.
Although less optimistic about Higuain, both Lavezzi and Hulk would be open to a move to the EPL, having stated/indicated as much themselves.

So, ed, to your knowledge, what first team striker options are looking at and will likely pursue (and potentially land)?

oooOO0000##### {Ed001's Note - it is a mix of all of them, he doesn't want to return to England, he wants Champions League football and Barca are still trying to do a deal. I think the most likely is someone like Wickham, if not the lad himself, someone younger, we have Kuyt for the experience. I expect pace and power from the 4th striker.}

You heard it first!!!

-------------------

The fact you said Downing is a possible marque signing discredits your post automatically! It appears our interest in Adam is still ongoing unfortunately but the Alonso rumours are just that, rumours! There will be one marque signing of some sort but be prepared they will not be of the level of Suarez/Torres etc.

The left wing or left forward role really (if 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 is employed) is what needs attention. Now, its impossible to guess which player the boys have in mind but the good thing is that there are many players out there that can do a good job in that position, which may be attainable i.e. Vargas, Turan, Honda, Shaqiri, Corzola, Downing, N'zogbia and lesser known Boudebouz, Zarate, Tadic, Mertens.

Mata is a summer dream, like Augero/Silva/Villa being mentioned on this site in past summer windows. Forget about him, talks may have occurred but in all seriousness I doubt he will join us at this stage of his career given that we are at the very start of a rebuilding phase and he is in top form and most likely wanting to prove himself this coming year at a club playing in Europe's top club competition and 3 or 4 clubs will be ready to offer him exactly that.

Left back is a different kettle of fish, there are not that many well recognised quality left backs out there that are available but I am sure the scouting dept has some targets and my guess is that the new left back will not be Clichy or Enrique my guess is that it will be a relatively unknown entity but will possess quality.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 14:10:17
Arda Turan

Cut the crap.
Is there any concrete interest from us, or is really joining chelsea :(

He is a red, and a world class winger. Two great feet, ideal on either wing. We should not pass up this opportunity, if turan joins fecking chelsea I'm gunna be pissed. {Ed009's Note - There was interest from our end - interestingly from Kenny himself before he became manager. However it seems to have cooled significantly, something I for one find odd.}

i dont get what the big problem is with people saying get shot of joe cole. just because his first season didnt go well for us. he is a top player when fit and could still offer us alot . what he earns is nothing to do with us. i think he should be given another season. with a good pre season and getting him in top shape. he will get back to his best. dont forget he chose to come to us above anyone else. because he said he loved the way fans get behide the club. give him a chance. he came when alot of crap was going on at the club and when we had a manger that didnt know what he was doing. i think he could be a big player under king kenny and steve clark....another point is why people on here are moaning about some of the players lfc are linked with. if kk think the likes of downing, adam, dann and others that have been talked about are right for the club at this time. then we should get behide them. we might not see some of them as top players .but kk is trying to build a top and strong squad and that is one thing kk knows how to build and also knows how to get the best out of players. i dont think the so called deadwood that everyone has said about are all going to been shown the door. yes the likes of poulsen, ngog, jova, konchsky and one or two others for sure will go and so they should. but i do think the likes of cole, maxi, insua, aqua, raul m will stay unless they ask or want to leave. they are strong squad players and would fit in to kk set up.

Look at it again mate, it's the most obvious Photoshop forgery I have ever seen. Downing's left hand has about 14 fingers. {Ed009's Note - no, it doesn't. Its at a weird angle undoubtedly, but the tassles from the scarf look like more fingers.}

 

 

 

 

I rate N'zogbia also although I thought him and carroll had a falling out at Newcastle and that was the reason he left. For the last couple of seasons especially away at wigan CN has given our defenders a bit of a run around.
Adam Johnson - Again seems a class act, would
citeh sell to us, I seriously doubt it.
Ashley Young - Nailed onto to go to Manc and struggles to cross his legs nevermind a football.
Walcott - hasnt done anything after 4 years at Arsenal, keeps being replaced by Bendtner - enough said!
Perotti * turan, might be decent but how long would it take them to adapt to the prem?
Mata is the one we would all love but does he want to come and can we afford the £20m +?

If you dont abide or meet the FFP ruling you will not be allowed to play in european competitions, thats why teams are spending big this season, to avoid missing out in seaon 2012-2013.

V.Boas will make Raul Mereriles his first signing with Scott Sinclair + £6million coming our way. be announced 4th july. {Ed002's Note - Scott Sinclair plays for Swansea. Or do you expect Villas-Boas to become swansea manager?}

..................................................
Pretty certain that Sinclair is on loan at Swansea? looks a good player, may not be a bad deal. We really need to see some action KK! Henderson aint the answer, just an investment in the future. We need a top 4 finish next year so we can bring some real class in! Please get downing, Mata and Banega. All class, have experience in CL and They would all feed Suarez and Carroll really well. Dann or Cahill for CB and Enrique or prefer Clichy at Lb. Cmon KK i have total faith in you but mate your killing me!

Hi eds please post this because people need to realise !!! Stewart downing is not in the scarf photo as you can clearly see on the right of the picture that stewart magically has loads of hands !

JP {Ed001's Note - he has one hand and that is clear. I think you need to look again, my first thought was he had about 7 fingers on his hand. Then I had it checked and am told it is reflections from bottles or glasses on the shelf behind creating the confusion.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 13:23:50
Alright people where is the rumpled about nzogbia trying to find it on daily mail and everywhere can find it. He's a good player but hogs the ball too much let's hope we get Mata as talks that he is going to join before or during the friendly. Keep us up to date on that please thanks

Relegated teams that win domestic cups will be playing in europe, so they had to sign up to the FFP ruling. {Ed001's Note - no they never, no domestic league has to sign up to it at all. Perhaps you should go read them and try and understand them before you talk nonsense.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 13:06:07
The FFP ruling only effects clubs who are in european competitions, so you basically you are not effected, and you have no garruntee that clubs that may want to buy your cast offs, will be playing european football either. {Ed001's Note - how does that matter? Or did it escape your notice that the Premier League and Championship have both also signed up to the FFP ruling?}

On the scarf with Downing & Carroll - it's photo shopped (I haven't read the page yet, so if this has been said already, sorry in advance) Look at Downing's shoulder, there's 3 hands around it.. And also look at the ladies shoulder, Carroll's hand is around that! Come on people, pay attention ha! Did you spot this ed?

I have been told that two staff members have been put on gardeners leave due to them leaking transfer rumours to the press. The club have felt that this has effected both the deals for downing and adam.

They have now re-affirmed there stance to all staff that they want the club run the liverpool way and that no one should be talking to the press about signings.

I used to drink in "The Gardeners" nice pub they've done well there..

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 12:41:45
The 5 players that will be leaving Anfield this summer are as follows.....Jones, Soto, Konchesky, Poulson, Ngog.

Replacing them will be..... Doni, Dann, Enrique, Henderson (done), Adam and the marque signing is Calorza or Downing!!!

You heard it first!!!

Hasn't Soto just signed a 12mth contract extension

RE "David villa said a year back that only club he would come to in epl is lfc, but this possibly was because of good friend and Spain team mate Torres so chelsea are more likely now to get him unless he stayed to word. But wouldn't mind seeing him in lfc shirt ynwa sparky"

David Villa's best friend is Pepe Reina who I imagine would have told him about the atmosphere within the club, not just from the Kop. Also I believe that Chelsea will be chasing Falcao, Rolando & Hulk. David Villa would be an amazing sign for us imagine a top three of Suarez, Carroll & Villa, it won't happen though.

"Ladies & Gents, the identity of the mystery player that Liverpool Football Club have agreed personal terms with Charles N Zogbia.

"A fee has been agreed with Wigan, personal terms have been agreed with the player s representatives & the player will undergo a medical and sign a contract when he returns from holiday. The deal is not yet official but subject to a medical being passed, N Zogbia will be a Liverpool player.

Having failed to secure the signing of Sylvain Marveaux from Rennes, it is believed that Kenny Dalglish and Daniel Comolli wish to sign N'Zogbia in a £12m deal as soon as possible in prepartion for the new season.

I pray that McLeish hangs onto Downing, i'd hate to see us waste 15m+ on a player who can't get into an England starting line - up which has only two left sided midfielders (one injuried for a period, johnson), that just shows how good he is. We don't just need a winger that can cross, we need a player with pace, skill, flair, the ability to beat a player and excite the fans.

RDR

I think you will find Downing has plenty of pace. The fact he doesnt make the England team is absolutely irrelevant. (better for LFC) Who do you think is better for the £12-£15m qouted (that is available)

On the SSN website they have a "Le Gossip" section, based on transfers in France. It says we're linked with Samuel Eto'o, who has also attracted interest from PSG. Any truth in this eds?

Meireles and 20 million for pato anyone ??

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 11:57:18
No one knows what KK and DC have planned. We are just going to have to hold out and see. Although I think there will be a few surprises. I think Liverpool going for N'Zogbia is based on us losing out to Marveux. I think this is a better plan in the first place. Although he will cost he has PL experience and can compete at that level. I do think and hope that he will be a squad player for us and not being bought as a first choice winger.

VALENCIA FRIENDLY, MATA: I don't think this friendly is anything more than just that, a friendly. It's not tied to any deal.
I'm quite sure it had already been in the pipeline long before there were Mata talks between the two clubs.

Even if it was tied with a deal for the player, why announce it when no deal has been concluded for the player and may infact not even happen?
People read between the lines rather too much.

As for Mata himself, yes we are interested as has been well documented. And we are told that there's been positive feedback from the player.
But I think it's important for people to remember that there's an awful lot of other suitors that the player will be talking to, suitors who may be in a position to outbid us, offer a lot more higher wages and have Champions League football.

I'm talking about teams such as Inter, City, Chealsea.
This is who we'll be up against. Although one card we could play is the "we'll offer you more gametime" one, I'm in doubt as to how effective it will be.
In my personal opinion, I don't Mata playing in LFC colours next season.

PATO: Imo there's nothing in this story (or non-story), more especially when you look at the nature of the figures thrown around.
We may well have watched the player but I doubt it was anything serious.

Should he leave Milan, of which I don't expect him to, I see Spain as his next destination. He'd command big wages and am not sure a move to the EPL, more especially us, would interest him.

NEW SIGNINGS: these are the players I see coming in:

= Goalkeeper
= Scott Dann
= Musacchio
= Jose Enrique
= Stewart Downing
= Ryad Boudebouz
= Jordan Henderson
= Charlie Adam
= Connor Wickham
= Giussepe Rossi/Pablo Osvaldo

Whether these players are what fans would consider "glamorous/marquee" is debatable.
Ed, you think those are in the right ballpark?

oooOO0000##### {Ed001's Note - Rossi? Not a chance.}

That sky bet is bollocks, one min they've stopped taking bets on Jones to join us, next min he's off to Utd.Look at Kranjcar he's been on there for months at 11/4 to join us.There's about much value in that as Charlie Adam leaving Blackpool any time soon.They stick names on and off so fast you cant keep up.I'll admit i used to look at it and be a buzzin dat Mata is fav to join us until some s**t started leaking out of my ears.People stay off dat sly bet sight, it'll turn your brain to mush.

GREAT! thus starting another streak of internal row's with Andy Carroll just like the problems they had at Newcastle, LFC are better than this, good player but big gamble :/

21 Jun 2011 11:44:58
N'Zogbia is a very poor player if we sign him I would be very suprised in KK and DC. M.Jarvis is also very overated how he made an england appearance beats me. These both look good in a poor side. S.Downing or A.Johnson from premier league. N'Zogbia and Jarvis are simply not good enough for our club. I also think Charlie Adam may be a gamble because of this but I would take the chance with him as hes a leader!!! Come on you reds!!!

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 11:33:44
The reason you have not sold any of your players yet, is that other clubs will wait until you have bought more players, then they will try to negotiate lower prices for your players, if you dont want to sell at the lower price, you can keep there wage bill on your books, Joe Cole springs to mind. {Ed001's Note - no it's not, try and read up on a little thing called the FFP ruling, we are trying to hold off sales until August because of them.}

Thanks for the prompt post and response Ed001.. :) Well dressing room tranquillity is most important..maybe if KK took Caroll and Nzogbia to a Boyzone concert they may resolve their differences.. Lol

A note to ALL LFC Fans.. please stop worrying and panicking.. guess i cant blame you but stay mentally strong.. could be some previous Hicks&Gilllet Transfer windows Virus still in the system..! We are playing better as a team, things are on the up and with some luck we may end our trophy drought this season...

Hi Eds great job on what you're doing, trying to quell a little of the rumor insanity. Please post this in the rumor section bcos there are things I'm tired of reading.

a. We DO NOT have to sell to buy. WE HAVE MONEY!! But the fact that we have money doesn't mean we should be stupid or pay over the odds for anyone. (and we did not pay 20 mil for Henderson; read Comolli's interview)

b. Nothing is ever certain in transfer dealings. Negotiations break down, hence somethings are true one day, then not so the next. Like I am certain there was a time when we were a step away from completing the Adam transfer but situations devolve for many reasons.

c. Concerning the squad, reasonable wage bill and squad depth are the major concern.

d. Concerning targets, many things are taken into consideration but the 'Liverpool way' is given high priority i.e. the desire to give your all for the club and believe in the vision.

e. Lastly Comolli and Kenny are very thorough in their evaluation of targets. Neither is a novice at what they're doing. Not up to 20 of these player links are true. Media blows inquiries and past interest out of proportion.

These are things you should all know if you claim to support this club

...........................................

Mate, you truly are a genius, because none of us had thought of any or indeeed all of the points you raise..... top work well done !!!!

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 11:20:50
Hi eds, good morning and great site.
Why are we being linked with Pato? as far as i can recall he only had a minor hit in the 90's with Baby Come Back. Should we really be looking at someone of this caliber when in our history we have the likes of the Anfield Rap

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 11:20:07
I remember when the diego rumours started and taarabt and everyone said not to buy them because they have bad attitudes and don't work for the team. Now you're all clamouring for nzogbia? Guys a waste of time, causes trouble at every single club he is at and disrupts the team with his outlandish claims that he deserves to play for a big team.

He's not even that talented just slightly above average. I don't like downing but even he would be a miles better option than nzogbia.

Rewflo

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 11:18:58
Funny to watch all the nonsense on the rumour page. Trust me no downing, no mata, no adam, no dann, no baines, no pato or anyone else mentioned. Only Nzogbia.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 11:18:53
I told you guys, Villas-Boas looking set to be new Chelsea manager, and looking more likely that he wants to bring Falcao with him. Meaning no chance of Sturridge getting a game, really think we should put a sneaky bid in of 10-12million....WOULD BE A BARGAIN!

Am I right in thinking we turned down the chance of taking sturridge as part of the Torres deal. I dont see him being an option at present.

Ed for what reason are we selling Meireles? Would he only leave in P/ex or does he actually want to leave? Personally I think he's too good to lose... {Ed001's Note - he is not young, he doesn't really suit English football and he doesn't like playing wide.}

hi guys i can tell you that pato will not be joining i would like to make that clear. he is not intrested in a move away from the san siro at all. who ever started this rumour is on drugs. he would not leave ac milan because of a small matter of the fact he is seeing the owners child so i can say he wont be leaving any time soon.

Just watched a lot of clips of Dejan Lovern.Heis a very good player.He can tackle he is tough and skilful.I know the french league is not as robust as the premier league but he did play with Dinamo Zagreb and the Croation league is not a soft touch by any means.If reports suggest he can be got for £3 million i say go for it.He has the potential to be a hidden gem and a season beside Jamie Carragher will do wonders.

I hope this happens but don't be stupid with comments when he is in Denmark for under 21s so no he hasn't agreed terms !

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 10:41:26
Why the doom and gloom amongst our fans? Seriously, it could be a whole lot worse. We've spent around £20m on a player without having to sell anyone to fund it, £20m last summer was an interest payment!

We have owners who genuinely seem to have the best interests of Liverpool Football Club and its fans at its heart. No boardroom battles. No crippling interest payment. No worry of us going into Administration. The King as our manager. Players coming through the Academy. Luis Suarez. All these positives were not the case last year

Some fans maybe unhappy that we haven't signed more players, but there aren't many who have spent more than us.

There is 70 or so days until September 1st, in which we will be linked with 8, 764 different players and will supposedly be spending £2.7bn on bringing them all in!

There is a whole lot of rebuilding that needs to be done with our squad - with players moving in and out - to improve the depth and quality of our squad. I have complete faith in Kenny Dalglish to go about this in the right way, and will result in us having a better squad next season.

So a few weeks without any major news is not a cause for concern.

21 Jun 2011 10:38:04
Liverpool will not be held to ransom and spend millions on defenders the plan is
to drop Steven Gerrard into the back four alongside Daniel Agger this will prolong Stevies career save us a fortune on more deadwood defenders, we will go with Kelly and Johnson at fullbacks and for first time since Hansen and Lawrenson we will play football from the back!!! buy Nzogbia and Adam combined spend 23mill leaving the bulk of the money to bring in Aguero.
Source it's a constant rumour round Liverpool concerning Gerrard dropping in to the back four.
Don't forget he started out as a right back..

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 10:36:16
I'd be happy with,

A Johnson - quality left foot
Dann - not seen much of him but seems a prospect
Clichy - will do, as Robinson looks mustard and Aurelio is class when fit
Adam - only if Miereles is leaving as we don't need him otherwise
Wickham - big, strong, skillful, a prospect for the future

The twist for August - Theo Walcott - he could be transformed like Thiery Henry was to play central as he's lightning quick and can score goals (I know that won't be popular and I agree he's not effective on the right but I believe his pace and dribbling skills could make him a very useful striker)

Cheers ALB

(David villa said a year back that only club he would come to in epl is lfc, but this possibly was because of good friend and Spain team mate Torres so chelsea are more likely now to get him unless he stayed to word.)

Adam and nzogbia are smokescreens.

Won't that mean basically the deal for them is about 40m+ mata for about 22m and banega will be a hell of cheaper than 20m bout 12m at most

21 Jun 2011 10:16:16
If we sign Adam (£12m) and Downing (£15m) in my opinion that would be a step backwards not forwards. Again two players with no pace what so ever and not good enough for LFC. If we were to just sign just two realistically available players with Prem experience my choice would be Clichy (£7m) and N'Zogbia (£8m). Now that would improve us without paying over the odds. What do you think Ed?

Hi Ed, What are the chances of signing David villa as only last year he said the only premiership team he would move to is Liverpool but that is when we had Torres but if he wants Spanish player we have reina and supposedly we are going for mata and a few more Spanish players plus I heard barcelona are willing to offload more money for the fabregas deal after nearly completing deal for Sanchez worth 35m which is most of their budget so what is the chance :) please write back {Ed001's Note - hard to say, Barca are open to offers for him but why would we pay that kind of money for a 30 year old?}

Stevie g is classs!

It's a long way from the council estates of Huyton to the lush terrain of southern Portugal where Steven Gerrard spends his summers these days.

The 31-year-old's remarkable journey has been fuelled by talent - a talent which has earned him fame and fortune.

Now, as he follows Jamie Carragher into the period of his career when his name will often be preceded by the word veteran, Gerrard has decided to use those two assets to help children whose backgrounds are not so different from his own, but whose fate has not been blessed in the same way.

And so we have The Steven Gerrard Foundation, established in February to aid charities like Fairbridge, Claire House and Zoe's Place.

Its first event - The Steven Gerrard Foundation Trophy - was staged under a cloudless sky at Laranjal Golf Course in Quinta do Lago, just a few miles from our skipper's holiday home on the Algarve.

"I'd seen what Jamie had done with his foundation and I wanted to do a similar thing to give more help to the kids in our area, the kids that need it, " Gerrard told Liverpoolfc.tv during a chat by the clubhouse.

"People in a position like myself - it's alright being comfortable in your own life but if you are, you've got to try and help people who need it. I come from a council estate background but things have changed for me and I'm in a position to help other people.

"You have experiences through your career - you visit hospitals, you see the kids and it has an impact on you. You go home and feel for them. You look at it and think, 'Now's the time for me to give something back.'

David villa said a year back that only club he would come to in epl is lfc, but this possibly was because of good friend and Spain team mate Torres so chelsea are more likely now to get him unless he stayed to word. But wouldn't mind seeing him in lfc shirt ynwa sparky

Lets get real here, would you swap playing with Messi for playing with Big Andy Carroll?

"look i have been hearing stuff about Dejan Lovren for a while now but according to BBC it is possible that he would not be able to gain a work permit. Could someone explain why?? how does this system work?

personally think 3 million would be a good price has had good wraps on him this season"


Lyon paid to Dinamo Zagreb around 10 mil Euro for Lovren not so long ago, so i don't think that 3 mil is a price we could get him for. Regarding the work permit, i doubt he wouldn't get one cos he's a regular on Croatian national team. We rate this kid highly and expect him to be a top 5 defenders in the world. Good thing about him, he's a good kid, a team player. Regarding the possible transfer, here in Croatia i hear the same everybody in Europe says, nothing special, no reliable sources so far.

eric abidal up for grabs

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 09:27:22
We have cooled interest in Downing and Adam and Dann (if we ever had any).

Mata was never seriously considered (unless we offload other players).

Bringing in players with EPL experience only at the moment, expect one of N'Zogbia or Jarvis, possibly Enrique, possibly Wickham, possibly Cattermole.

Further signings depend in players leaving.

----------------------------------------

FSG bought the club & vowed to make us winners. Not tread water in a mid table obscurity. Your claim is laughable.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 08:49:51
Hi ya Ed I c that Eric abidal will not be signing a new contract with barca. What do u think about him as he is a good left back and can also play centerhalf two birds with one stone. We were once interested in him under rafa. I am not saying kk is interested in him so please people don't start saying we are going to get him
Reina
G. Johnson. Carra Skrtal. Abidal
Lucas
Gerrard Adam
Mata
Carroll. Suarez
Subs a Johnson Henderson agger kuyt Flanagan sterling {Ed001's Note - I just don't see him being good enough to play every week.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 09:13:06
Liverpool have no interest Pato , sometimes Phil Thompson gets exited like with Enrique which was not true the only transfer news for Liverpool is Konchesky leaving for wolves which im really happy about also mata is not a dead cert there are many clubs interested and teams like City can offer him massive wages and offer champions league football also his mates with David Silva. Zapata has many years left on his contract and his agent said Liverpool have not even watched the player or contacted them Adam hangs in the balance Blackpool valuation of the player is silly and would rather sell to Villa for more money. It seems like the owners would rather buy unproven overpriced english players just because of their passport not because of there abilty.

Macca, you say we only want English based players, so does that mean when it comes to Downing and Mata is it either or? No chance of both?

I heard talks with Mata were going really well and a deal was looking good.

Also, you said a few weeks ago we had a bid accepted for Aguero and were putting a wage package together - how does this fit in with your "EPL players only" theory? Or was it a lie, like most of your rumours?


lolz macca stated english players were first choice now as we need to get rid of the deadwood be4 we can go out and sign the european stars.
macca never said we put or had a bid accepted for aguero thats ur lie macca never said such a thing.
In future dont make lies.
macca gets more right roumours than u ever will.

Sparky, Villa is actual best buddies with Reina. They are extremely close.

This is a direct Villa quote from the ECL win over United :
"I dedicate it to all my family, my daughters and also Pepe Reina's, who are like my nieces."

Obviously doesnt mean he will come to us just cuz their mates tho

Hi, I'm a Newcastle fan, and wanted to find out how much Liverpool have to spend this summer, as you are being linked with a lot of pricey players.
I'm not sure that the buying British policy is a wise one, as you will end up spending a fortune on the likes of Downing, and Adam. Surely there are better players for less money. What are your first impressions on Henderson? Value for money?

So aqua is worth £30 million then
-----------------------
You think pato is worth 40m!??

Crazy talk, He is worth 15m tops. Even Menezes doesnt rate Pato and I know milan would be willing to do business for 18m for Pato.

I dont recall macca stating anything about Aguero fee agreed. Quite the opposite Macca and the eds and myself have often stated that we dont expect Aguero in england at all.

Rewflo {Ed001's Note - I can back that up, I have checked and Macca has never said anything of the kind regarding Aguero that I can find. This guy is obviously another of those anonymous idiots that makes things up just so they can attack people.}

------------------------

Work permits for UK (in sports anyway) State that a player must have played 40% of his countries matches in the last year in order to gain one. There is also a special talent exemption. Am I right ed?

Mr E {Ed001's Note - yes, might be difficult to get the special talent exemption for him.}

Hi eds have u seen eric abidal has rejected
a new contract from barca. What do u reckon considering
were looking at a left back?? {Ed001's Note - I am not convinced by him as a left back or centre back myself. He is a great player as cover for both, but he is not good enough to be first choice week in week out, in my opinion.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 08:07:39
i dont get this thing about people saying we wont get downing, adam and others. its still early in the tranfer window. i know we would of all liked a few more signing done by now but alot of the clubs are playing silly games because they are trying to get the price up. i do think we may see a few things happen over the coming days.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 08:00:47
how valid( altho i should already know how valid things are on this site pfffft)are the pato rumours?? hes a smashing player regardless if he gets a game for milan , be a gr8 move to throw in aqua n 8m for him

McLeish does not strike me as the man to keep Downing, Young or Agbonlahor at Villa, I will be surprised to see if Sturridge remains at Chelsea with the new fella that they bringing in, especially when Falcao follows. Wickham, Adam and Dann would be LFC players by now if the Reds would want them. So what I am saying is the lack of activity would be due to 3 factors, our targets belong to clubs who are under new management (except Blackpool and Ipswich), players that we wish to sell on have not yet moved but more importantly I am guessing that the July 1 transfer kick off is the trigger LFC are waiting for - KingCarlosShow

If player from outside the EU they have to get a work permit, to play "work" in uk, how they assess someone applying for a permit is based on how many international caps they have, although other considerations are taken such as age and if been injured and potential of player.

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 06:04:43
Morning Ed's

Like many other Reds, my expectations were increased when FSG took over the club, It seemed the message was identify the targets then go get them, I know its not as simple as that, do you get the impression we are dragging our feet a little, The reason I say this is a lot of the rumours are stating that we are mainly looking at young british talent (I don't particularly believe this to be true as I would have expected us to make multiple moves by now).

Do you think that we will see 2, 3 or maybe 4 foreign players come into the club?

Another little clean up again! THE CHARLES NZOGBIA RUMOURS ARE B.S MADE UP BY SOMEONE ON TWITTER WHO DELETED HIS ACCOUNT STRAIGHT AFTER TWEETING THE LIE!

Right lets move on.

A few things going on Liverpool tried to move early for their choice of stars. due to our policy of signing young players with potential and high resale value. It ties in with the new financial fair play rules (if you have no clue what it is then google as I don't want to explain) having players of high value provides us with higher equity in the future meaning after spending power. We have seen how selling one 50mp striker can get you two younger players with great potential. This is why we WILL NOT SEE players that are going to be on high contracts in their twhilight years.

Young players will come from across the world I am sure of it. Juan Mata has been heavily linked but none Epl transfers can not take place till July 1st. He is also playing U21 football so we need that to end also and then we will get answers.

Arsenal are not doing any deals until Fabregas has gone to Barca. This is why the Clichy rumours have broken down. Liverpool have had to wait for players only to be drawn into a bidding war so I do not see this transfer happening because I believe we have moved on to other targets.

Adam Johnson wants first team football and I believe he will join once Man city claim their first big signing (possibly a barca player) Johnson will come in my guess within the next two weeks.

We will be signing a new back up goalkeeper however it will not be Doni as his wage demands where ridiculous (3mp a year) look for this keeper to cost us around 4 to 7 million.

Shelvey will being loaned out so he can play first team football next year to give him time to overcome his still nasty injury from last year. Yes he has recovered but the form he needs for liverpool will not be achieved through reserve games but rather the professional stage.

Smokey Joe Cole will being gone... better than Messi my arse.

A new CB will be brought in aswell as a LB.... my tip of the day. Joseph Yobo. Will create time for our academy players to come through. Strong physical player that Kenny would like in his squad.

Anyway sorry for the wall of text.

Stewart Downing deal to be discuss & finalise this week for fee reported 14M..if AVFC still want 15M, then is expected LFC will walk away and sign Nzogbia for 10M..KD would like to have Downing at Anfield but also impress with Nzogbia's performance..
---------------------------------------------

C.Adam deal also set to be finalise tomorrow with take it or leave it offer since KD already found great alternative replacement for Adam, which is Celtic Ki Seung-Yung. KD have good relationship with Celtic FC and can make deal happen for 8-10M.

--------------------------------------------

LFC value Scott Dann for 10M and will not pay more than that. DC favour Sakho(13M) and Dejan Lovren which available for cheap 3-5M.

------------------------------------------

LFC also will submit initial bid for Enrique this week, for 7M. Cissokho, Clichy also under consideration.

-----------------------------------------

Juan Mata coming to LFC just talk on the Net. Nothing sort out yet. Mata's father would like Mata coming to LFC and Mata also considering joining LFC. But Mata still have other options. Right now, waiting for official bid from DC. Bid expected in the region 16-20M.

----------------------------------------

Transfer funds given by FSG to Kenny close to 60M. Plus player sale, so it would be in the region 70-80M.
That's why KD & DC not in hurry finding suitable targets to bring to Anfield.

If Raul still wants out and Villareal are snooping around as has been reported, then i think we could do worse than any one of Borja Valero, Bruno Soriano or Santi Cazorla, they are all actually better than Raul in their own right, but only if Raul wants to leave.

Liverpool are in for David Vaughan on a free from Blackpool.

He's better than Charlie Adam, and Blackpool fans know it. He scooped all of their awards.

And while his passing isn't as flashy as Charlie's, he's a more consistent player and is actually quite creative. I feel him and Lucas playing box to box could do quite the job, and he won't demand huge wages or a signing on fee! Thoughts, anyone?

Ed, do you expect Jack Robinson and/or Flanagan to compete for the fullback positions this season. Is Suso playing at the U-17 World Cup & does his progress parallel Sterling's at the moment. Who else has a realistic chance of first team appearances. Coady, Morgan, etc. Do you rate Shelvey. Sorry about all the questions but the youth program is just as important as new signings. {Ed002's Note - Flanagan will get a good number of games I would suspect. Robinson a few.}

 

 

 

 

21 Jun 2011 02:04:05
Hi Ed, Can you please post something that is going to cheer me up today. I have posted on this web a couple of times with messages of belief in KK and DC with exicting transfer targets. I am a bit dis-harted at the moment as nothing major seems to be happening. I know we signed Henderson but I feel it will be 3 years at least before he reaches the level of a top class footballer. Our top target for a left back seemed to be Enqriue seems to be going to the gunners. Clichy our second target now seems to be going to Roma. Is this where we stand as a club now having to settle for players way down our list of targets. Adam looks set for Villa. Mc cleish gave him his first chance at Rangers and also capped him for Scotland. I cant belive we can be after a player for 6 months and not get our man. man u beat us to young and jones. Spurs can tell chelsea that their top players are not for sale but yet we sell torres. What is going on? we spent 60m in jan but brought in 60m in player sales. If we sell 5-6 players cole ngog etc we will gwt the 16m back we payed for Henderson. where are the exciting players, Downing or Johnston dont do it for me. When you see some of the players names on the move and we seem to be not first or even second choice to them makes me worry. How slow is DC getting these deals done. Dann a lifelong pool fan should of been in the bag weeks ago. Adam should have been done the day after utd sealed blackpools faith. we need a left back badly and we should have bagged one already. We spent 35m on a striker that thrives on crosses yet we do not have a winger on either wing that can cross a ball. Where is the investment into players? i dont mean by selling players I mean 50m plus player sales. are we hyping up an average team again. KK will get the most out of every player he has and I belive fully in him. I am just doubting that the best from the current squad wont be good enough to get into the top 4 again as every team above us are signing top star players. When Chelsea willing to pay 13.2m to get the manager the want. What chance do we have? {Ed002's Note - If you cannot get over this depression I suggest supporting Chelsea who you clearly already follow.}


I hate to agree with the above, but there are some very valid points. I think Ed002 was a bit too quick to go on the defensive. Most of us, if not all, Liverpool fun were excited about this summer. I now realise that it was more to do with rumour sites like this (don t get me wrong i do love this site & will carry on reading it 5 times a day) and far too many of our supporters playing Championship Manager (to relive the glory days) and linking us to everybody.

I love KK and I wish he was installed 18 months ago. I know that KK will get any player to play out of their skin but he can only do so much. I was hoping that KK would have full control over transfers or at least appointment his own man.

I'm not convince about this Director of Football position (whats wrong with head scout) I know DC has a good record, but I feel that he likes to drag his feet. I thought the new transfer policy was to identify these targeted players and then to move fast for them. Obviously something is slowing us up. Why weren t bids places at the end of the season? All this crap about waiting for after the under 21 Euro, and Copa America, is very risky business. Please don t mention using other players as a smoke screen coz that is a load of rubbish and we all know it. If players dont want to come and play for us then fine but this should have been established long before now.
DC has got a gr8 CV and he takes credit for the signing to name a few GB & LM, but there have been crap signings too (like most managers). Plus lets not forget that Spurs spent over £180m between 2006 & 2008 so his services dont come cheap and it will take some time to blossom so i will give him time. Just wish someone would stick a rocket up is a*se when negotiating.

Good luck for the rest of the summer DC and hope to here some good news on signings.

After following lots of different people on twitter ( a quiet night in) these include spanish, italian and british fans. There seems to be a recurring theme regarding a player to liverpool. Now aquilani wants to stay in italy and ac have shown interest. we are possibly looking at acquiring ( possibly not probably) none other that PATO!. i know it would be unlikely but lots out there from unconnected tweeters about this rumour. lots of italians confirming the rumour. Anyhoo discuss away, notice i have not mentioned him being in the albert or the sandon etc. just was bored and investigated tweets regarding big name footballers
