Use our rumours form to send us liverpool transfer rumours.

In my opinion LFC are taking way too long getting there transfers out of the way, Its only a matter of time another team is gonna steal Juan Mata away from us, It won't be the first time either - Young, Phil Jones, C.Wickham.
In April and May LFC were voted to be busy in the upcoming transfer window, so far we only signed 1 player, Henderson, while Man utd has already signed their 3 main signings.

You guys might look at this and laugh but I would prefer getting all of our signing done and dusted before and/or in the middle of pre season, so they newcomers will have time to gel with the lads

My personal opinion is that I don't think it's a huge deal that we have missed out on a few players as there are many out there We need to revolve the team around Andy C because he's more than capable of being top goal scorer next season.

So the players I would love to see....

Downing
Adam
Mata
Clichy

That's all we need.
Thanks x

Ed02 to put in a transfer request to another club rumour web page if Charlie Adam and Downing rumours are not put to bed by next week.... You heard it here first... YNWA.. Lee

Why do people keep sayin we r goin 2 buy sturridge, milner or a.johnson, city and chelsea would never sell 2 us we r ther rivals. We will get the targets we r after wen the transfer window opens. United had david de gea signed on a pre contract agreement last summer

Brian Rose @W0ODY8 how can he not know there's thousands of scousers urging him to go , ha

He also keeps tweeting his lips are sealed when people ask him about it... Something tells me the deal is set and Charlie will be a Liverpool player by the end of the week maybe even tomorrow :):D

john W henry has stated on skysports news we're looking at young talents and we look to tie up a deal f reason or adam but downing hitting 27 wont fit the agenda so doubt he'll move, does this open the gap for mata or adam johson, but doubt city will sell to us, i know who'll be coming in: mata(the only Valencia are playing liverpool in a friendly), clichy pushing arsenal to accept liverpools bid, charlie adam, santi cazola and bojan

With liverpool after another keeper what bout this guy who plays for club america in mexico Guillermo Ochoa you should see some of the saves he pulls off.

29 Jun 2011 23:11:19
i dont understand why we dont put a bid in for chris brunt...he had 11 assists in the prem last season and plays left wing and would be alot cheaper than downing..what do the eds think on this?

redricho {Ed002's Note - So many players and so little time.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 23:10:51
eds, what are your thoughts on downing as a player ? rate out of 10 :) and do you think he will fit into LFC ? :) {Ed002's Note - I don't want to try and rate players by their skill. It would be much too subjective.}

Don't believe the 200 or so stories on potential player "swoops." Now maybe if the rosters expand by 175 or so... Every day new names

I am well p****d off with the idiots who claim about knowing someone or this and that relating to the club / transfer policy It is complete bull, isn't it ? Ashley Young nailed on I promise you ( in, January) Phil Jones it's a cert Conor Wickham etc etc do me a favour, it is complete b****x It's like your 5 minutes of fame, isn't it? Get a grip if you know naff all don't big it up I love the club but I'm pi**Ed off with all this crap Reg the great

No1 has mentioned that Connor wickham just might not have been deemed good enough by kk & his team especially at prices quoted. I think they lost interest.

Personally yes he had potential but nothing special. Below average goal ratio, did not set championship alight either last term.

Henderson has potential but had a very effective season in EPL under
his belt.

Think what Owen was doing at that age on the highest stage & fowler, different class.

So no great loss IMO. Stevie making significant noises in public, reina deciding to stay & JWH tweets of comfort lead to an interesting transfer window.

Since KKs return we have shown on the pitch we are not far away, wins over united, city & Chelsea, so things arnt doom n gloom but the cusp of an exciting chapter in our clubs history.

I think it is fair to say that Liverpool not chasing Wickham and July 1st fast approaching and Dalglish back off his hols all at the same time, suggests that Liverpool's next batch of transfer dealings will be nostly foreign purchases not UK. Further, I would also suggest that Dalglish being back now may also be indicative that if there is to be a major major signing this window it will be from abroad and will take place in the next 7 days or so ready for pre-season.

Personally, other than off-loading and maybe a left-sided winger/attacker, I think we are just about done till Xmas. Certainly there is very little rumour coming out of the Kremlin.

I will only judge any new signings, existing squad, management or owners on one day and one day only...The last day of 2011/12
I dont care how big or small a name any player brought in is.. I trust Dalglish.
I dont care who we dont sign or who chooses to play elsewhere.. I trust Dalglish.
Im not bothered if we pay 35m or 3m.. I trust Dalglish
I support Liverpool football club, I trust Dalglish
Together we are a family, together we move forward, together we bring success.. Lets quit all the moaning and arguing and show the world that we are better than that

Everybody saying that Downing has great crosses for Carroll and that is the reason why we will sign him, but what if carroll gets injured is then Downing useless?

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 22:38:30
Anyone else not really bothered about Wickham joining Sunderland? If he's good there he'll leave in a couple of seasons, if he's poor then we've saved 13 million. I think that's a huge price to pay for an 18 year old who's never played in the Premiership before

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 22:35:54
I have it on good authority that Sammy Lee has left us to be No2 for Sam Allardyce at West Ham......Kevin Nolan will be gutted

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 22:32:05
Just heard a few things on Twitter that Connor Wickham has a £12m buyout clause if Sunderland fail to get into Europe. So, we go back a season later and buy a proven top flight English talent, genius

Like I said, just hear'say, but would be pretty good business for us if it does turn out to be true

Thanks

dont worry about wickham deal lads we ll do what we normally do buy him in 2 years for 35 mill

not botherd we missed out on players like wickham, young and marveux cos that shows they would not give there best for the club and would not wear the the red shirt with pride where as adam, henderson and turan would YNWA

29 Jun 2011 22:04:11
Ed now sunderland have signed wickham does this mean we are stuck with ngog or are they still pushing threw with the deal or was his wages to high cheers

Mickleburg {Ed002's Note - I doubt he will be going to Sunderland.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 22:03:08
not too fussed we didnt get wickham , we got morgan there who will be a gr8 striker, we also have suso n sterling who i reckon will get blooded in i rekon this season , these boys are real potential , just need the odd signoing for the left side positions n a playmaker , everything will be rosy,

As I said after hendo signed we wouldn't see any transfers till July. I also said my friend who is involved in the medical team was expecting something to happen in 7-10 days so that would be before Monday. He says he's heard wheels are begging to turn and he still thinks at least one before Monday. Things change but kenny is back from holiday and under 21s is done and international window opens on Friday. I hope Adam can be tied up as we are clearly interested. Also as we claim to be working behind closed doors I hope an international transfer or 2 are awaiting Friday Only time will tell. Be patient.

29 Jun 2011 21:33:07
Adam Morgan is the reason we did not sign Connor we have a lot of talented youth at the club we are looking for 20-25 year olds pref with prem experience just incase you've not been listening and forget your sources you'll know when it happens.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 21:22:24

Bob_the_Red
Your post is probably the best post I ve read here here in a long time, I agree with all points made. As you said people need to do a little bit of thinking before they start typing. I can only speak for myself, I ve been a Liverpool supporter for 25 years and the second hand half of last season reminded me why I choose to follow this tremendous institution. I got to go to Anfield for the first time last season for the United game, I felt the genuine optimism in the fans, the ground, the city. I couldn't care less who we sign, I trust KK judgement, so what if other clubs have rushed in to buy players, leave em off, we will get the players we want.
KK will build a successful team, sustain and maintain.
Those who wish to bitch, whine and moan and question a man with 40 odd years expierence shouldnt even dare call themselves a LFC supporter. True LFC supporters know success will come, it may not be overnight, but we will stand behind our men, no matter who is on the pitch

Very well put Bob the red.I've said it before and i'll say it again, if you want to support a club who just spends money for the sake of spending it you can always f*** off and support City.Net spend last years pre season window was about plus 2 mil. i'd put my f***in flat and everything in it that if we'd have signed Wickham for 13 mil, you woulda got the people who to me are f***in masquerading as fans who are pissing and moaning about losing out on another so called target, would've been saying 13mil for a player who's never played in the Prem.17 goals in 70 games in championship and D.C is a f***in person who dont know what he's doing. If Utd had took Henderson, and they were sniffing, we 've lost Englands centre mid for next 10 years. For f***s sake, lets judge what goes on between now and the end of the season then. Signing's will come, as sure as night follows day they will come in this window. Just chill the f*** out because it turning from a banter page, to bitch's piss and moan page. Rant over, better go and read some mills and boon to calm down. Jonson6

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 21:17:23
Any truth ed that Aguero has passed a medical today & that he'll sign along with Adam within the next 24-48 hours. Someone has posted this on the SSN rumour website.

I can well believe the soap opera for Adam is reaching a conclusion but not Aguero.

Why of why do people do this & play with our emotions, what is the point?

Please dont shoot the messenger, I'm only quoting what is on their website. {Ed002's Note - Aguero is in Argentina preparing for the Copa America.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 21:06:22
Is there any chance this will happen?

Rowell & Baines = Quality to the defense
P. Hernandez & Hazard = Speed
Diego = Playmaker
Lukaku = Talented backup striker

I've got a feeling something unexpected will happen (Reina and gerrard seems to know something about the future players coming in, since they talk about challenging for the title in media).

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 20:55:25
For the few so called supporters who come on and slag off players like adam and downing, if they were to become Liverpool players which is more than likely are you still gonna slag them off...No? Trust kenny he knows what this club is about like most of the people (and the eds) who comment on this website.
For the Football manager 2010 etc so called fans...if you dont trust Kenny go and do one and support that mob down the M62.

Sorry for my rant ed. Great site

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 20:49:16
Enough of this moaning s**te about what we miss on what everyone thinks we will sign, when clearly nobody has a clue, its all in kenneys head and as long as he knows who we want then we are in for a cracking season and beyond, keep the faith and just BELIEVE, IT WILL HAPPEN. ynwa. mighty redmen.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 20:46:45
so what we didnt get wickham but if kk wanted him we would have got him, that i am sure of. I think we should go after turan, mata, bojan and clichy job done till january. guys dont panic more players will sign and will be kk's targets.

Adam (agree)

Deigo (disagree)same age, similar price, same position -Mc

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 20:40:26
I don't understand why we are not making any bids for Arda turan, Bojan and lavazzi.I understand it is a different thing that we might fail in signing them due to various other reasons. But why the hell we are not bidding for them it is hard to understand.

29 Jun 2011 20:24:53
I know im gonna get pelters but we seem to be missing out on all our targets , who then go to other clubs for really low amounts, why are we not moving for people at prices that are really low risk and apparently missing out on all our high value/quality targets too? is it dc thats holding us up? im sorry but im frustrated.

29 Jun 2011 20:12:11
Hi ed, just like to say that this site is too addictive Keeping me from doing any work at work haha. Anyway, do u reckon we are gunna sign players who havent been mentioned? To me its looking that way. I just hope we get 2 quality wingers and a solid leftback and i reckon we can push for the title especially coz weve got the sublime suarez upfront and the power of andy carroll. I just cant see many defences coping with them 2 next season. Shabba.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 20:08:30

what do you suggest Liverpool should do to inject pace into the squad? Which position is it most needed in? thnx

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 20:05:13
im a bit confused that we didnt match price for wickham and we are haggling over price for adam yet we spend 16 to 20 mil on henderson. Can see us losing out on more players too

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 20:04:45
Four years ago we were bought by two big talking American owners, promising big, big players and a new fancy stadium.

One year ago, it was confirmed those Americans had bought the club to its knees. Hodgson was installed, Mascherano the latest 'big' player to be off loaded, Konchesky, Poulsen, Cole and Meireles added to the squad. Reina, Torres and Gerrard were denied an 'out' due to the club being up for sale.

9 months ago we were bought out by another American Company and the fans embraced John Henry as some sort of saviour.

7 months ago, the ref blows the whistle on a home defeat with Wolves, which personally i have never seen such an appalling performance.

6 months ago, Hodgson was sacked and Dalglish put in temporary charge. Performances pick up, results pick up. Some performances were superb with the odd poor performance thrown in to ensure supporters do not get carried away. Added into the mix an astonishing transfer window where we buy and sell over £50M concerning 4 players.

Roll on to this summer, the British transfer window opens and bang we go straight in and purchase what the club says 'is its number one transfer target' with upwards of £20M going to Sunderland for a very young Henderson.

What a far cry from 12 months previous. An absolute total change in the club. Here we are bidding, successfully £20M (let's not get hung up whether it's £14-16-18M) on a player the club thinks will be an absolute fantastic addition.

No mucking about, can't complain about haggling. The same theory was taken with Andy Carroll. We wanted him and we got him. FULL STOP.

So reading the posts on here this summer must be a real eye opener for someone who hasn't been paying attention for the last few months.

The International transfer window is yet to even open. What more do the owners have to do to get even the smallest crumb of respect?

They've spent the best part of £70M on players, more on managers past and present, staff and infrastructure etc. etc. We have posters moaning about a lack of activity, too much money spent, the lack of quality in the players bought, the players we haven't bought, the players that have slipped through the net, the players we have allowed to slip through the net.

"£70M" i hear you cry "£70M on Carroll, Suarez and Henderson? Why not Aguero, Sanchez, Neymar? Oh no and we end up with Adam, Downing and Enrique. Why not Cointeau, Alonso and Hazard?"

Three years of no investment in the team. H&G's only improvement to keep other players happy was with wage improvements and stupid clauses inserted which was no more than a sticking plaster on the problem.

What more do you want right this very minute? Because you seriously need to reign in your sky high unrealistic expectations. Good ol' Ed002 is having a right laugh dealing with the amount of posters who just appear to have lost what common sense they had.

If you do some research, you will find the majority of signings will happen generally in the latter part of the month of July with another 'surge' coming around the 20th August to the end of the window.

If i were John Henry rwading this website, i's be calling H&G back up saying "You know what? Both sides deserve each other."

You negative, moaning, bitching bunch of a***holes are actually the fan equivalent of Hicks & Gillett and you know what? You are equally despised by all us genuine supporters. You are not wanted, you are not needed and you certainly are not a fan of this club.

From now on sign your posts as Tom Hicks. You will be treated as him from now on.

News: Liverpool owner John Henry has explained the club's transfer policy is designed to build for long-term success rather than instant gains.

source: skysports

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 20:00:30
Liverpool owner John Henry has laid down a marker for the club's transfer policy by confirming the plan is to build for long-term success.

"Speculation on players shouldn't include those of a certain age, " he wrote on Twitter.

"We are not going to be successful by merely filling short-term needs at LFC."

"Everything in sports is overpriced now - especially the cost of winning. But you make your choices based on a plan, " was the American's response.

"Some things happen early and some late. The important thing is that things happen. Sometimes what you avoid is important."

Evening eds, everyone just read john henry story about only getting younger players do you think he'll pay over the odds for these players or use the arsenal way with cheaper foreign players not yet tried and tested. Any thoughts cheers psv

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 19:54:46
i find it funny how so called fans are turning on kk and dc, saying how we are missing out on targets. truth is we dont no who the targets are, only what we read in the papers, it was a well known fact wickham preferrd a move to liverpool, yet he signs for sunderland. so it just proves the point that one of our top targets "according to the papers" was never really a top target at all. we assume adam, downing etc are on the way, but im not sure anymore. maybe the fact we have only signed henderson is because the international window, still has not opened, and instead of downing we just might be looking at the turans, the mata's etc. point is we just dont know. so please be a supporter and support the club, and stop calling for heads to roll when a ball hasnt been kicked this year. king kenny steve clarke and damien commoli did a pretty good job second half of last season, and when you consider redknapp was talked out of signing suarez because they felt he couldnt hack it in the prem, i think commoli got it spot on. o how fast some forget

Hi ed

I don't know anyone in the know and do not see the point in repeating exclusives that are already reported elsewhere.

I'd like to thanks the eds for the their hard work and all those who submit, in good faith, rumours they have heard on the grapevine.

All I want to do is try and put a little perspective on our transfer dealings.

Firstly, we have been linked with so many player it is inevitable we will 'miss out' on some. Apart from Phil Jones did we make a bid for any of the others?

Secondly, how many other clubs (our rivals) have made any signings apart from purple nose?

Thirdly, the international window has not opened yet.

We all realise that several players need moved on and wages freed up and that we have wasted to much money staying still whilst everyone else has developed.

Last season was hell and then the King returned, all we need to do is stay positive and wait and see what happens.

29 Jun 2011 19:35:24
i think we will miss out on the league or even a chapions league spot. other teams are signing top class players like sanchez, young , de gea and and sneijer. we are signin not so great players like adam and downing. but i have faith in king kenny . hope u agree eds .

piece of cake {Ed002's Note - Sanchez and Sneijder have not signed for English sides.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 19:36:06
Why is everyone being so negative about Downing? Is it just because we might want to sign another british player?

Bring Downing and Adam I say. British players are what this club has been missing. Go ask Houllier and Rafa. They bought tons of foreigners who flopped.

how can the spam have signed david da gea when the window doesnt open til friday? And if these things can be wrapped up in principle just waiting for the line to be signed why havnt we done anything like this if some of these rumours are true?

Why the moaning about Wickham? We have young strikers coming through who could very well be better - yes, someone like Morgan is umproven at Premier League level but so is Wickham. Granted, the former hasn't had much first team action but a loan to a Championship team will fix that. Chin up and have some faith: if Morgan breaks through, we'll have saved a great deal. Conversely, imagine if Wickham had signed and he'd been found out at the higher level: all those bemoaning the fact we've missed out on him would be saying he was a waste of money. In fact, many would have been saying that before he'd even played.

Its going transfer mad here there and everywhere at the moment Just a few points guys,

Regarding the Wickham situation, I believe if we really wanted the boy we would have signed him, we've got the funds, and he is apparently a LFC fan, but for some reason or other we haven't and thats ok for me, providing we are looking at other suitable replacements. On BBC there's a clause in his contract that he can be bid for after a year or something along those lines, so we shall see.

Henry in a recent interview has re iterated again that younger with resale value are being targeted, not older guys, so all worrying about Wayne Bridge don't fret or worry, or any older targets for that matter, not going to happen

We'll be fine guys, I believe KD FSG and DC know what they're doing, lets not worry just yet about transfers theres been hardly any movement by anybody and we will sign quality Who knows if we are even in for the targets in the media etc

Finally, if the Sammy Lee rumours are true, all the best as he gave his heart and soul for the club on and off the pitch Respect.

The A man

Why the f*** are people slating Henderson saying hes not a top signing its bulls**t hes top class anyone who watches football will see this and tbh the way the market is 16 mil seems a snip. Him and wilshere will run England cm for the next 10 years.He created the third highest amount of chances in the league last season and with added quality around him he will shine, also it looks like he can nick as few goals from midfield and can only develop that ability with some tips from gerrard in fact he looks like the most natrual successor to stevie g in the English game hes strong, quick, great passer, great crosser, unbelievable engine and sometimes gets deployed on the right (btw I think hes wasted out there).but yeah sorry rant over I just cant sit and read all these idiots comments about him without saying something redbenm

fellow red heads and Kopites fear not .
We had one of the strongest fisishes of any team in the league last year and we did it without Mata or Hazzard . If we hadnt had the unfortunate spell under roy and kk was at the helm from the get go its likeley we would have been in europe . Ontop of this we showed that our accademy boys are capeable of playing at the top level .
So whilst i would love to see the Matas and the hazzards of the world run out in red i wont shed to many tears if they dont and will continue to do what i have allways done and what liverpool fans are famous for and that is support the team the manager and every and any player that works hard for LFC.

Big love to the eds and asll those who share the things they hear .

Even if the bid is from psg I can't Imagine Lille selling him to a rival. Its a fact dc has been asked to be kept informed and if his agent can persuade him to try England lfc will step In. I believe if lfc get a yes lets talk from hazards agent which they have lfc will be thinking about putting a package together.

Ok, I'm puzzled. Not so long a go our american owners where going on about getting quality players in the summer an we would be in a title race next season "Brilliant", at last" I thought. Now it's midsummer and what have we got? Henderson? C'mon guys Meanwile chelzki and man s**tty are fighting over Santos, chelzki bidding on Aguero and Coentrao, Arsenal bidding on Gervinho, Man Utd bidding on Thiago And we are close on Stuart fkn Downing and a relegated scotshman

Charlie adam, Really? Are henderson, carrol, adam the sort of players who are gonna help us beat united, city, arsenal and spurs to a top 4 position ? waste of money

----------

Since Torres left and KK took over didn't we beat man u, man city, Chelsea and draw with arsenal, only losing to spurs... Since the season ended we have only added to the team? Had Woy not been in charge with H&G in the scene for the first half of the season I personally think we'd have cruised top 4 last season.

think this is a clear reminder of the transfer policy that we will only be targeting player who will become competitive or are competitive now and for a long time to come not a mere 3 or 4 seasons

Sammy Lee a top class servant for Liverpool, a red till his death.. Lets remember what he has done for the club: European cups, league titles etc.

However King Kenny knows what he is doing. You can bet the new coach will be top class. Wonder if Sammy is going to be replaced by another Sami

Anyhow, You will always be welcome at Anfield.

Remember what Kenny said "we will only sign players that are better than what we have "i think Kenny is leading a merry dance to media and reporters, we have been linked to dozens of players and who came up with Henderson??, there is things going on behind the scenes , no doubt about it, Downing and Adam , mate we were thinking Riera was the bees and e's just cos he added something to the left, cos we'd never had nothing there for years , Downing is well better than him an anyway who knows who we're after i am sure there are a few surprises in store, we get two of the most promising players in Carrol an Suarez an the media linked us with O' Shea mate your havin a laugh, I remember the papers and some of the Eds said we wouldn't get Suarez, imagine Kenny fronting ya and saying come and play for LFC , Look at the history , european cups etc, etc , mate Kenny could sell ya Sky HD even when you've already bought it, We will get the players who we want maybe miss out on a couple , but missed out on Wickham ?yeh alright, Trust Kenny and the boys all will be well bless ya loads Liam YNWA

Alright all, eds
I enjoy this site 90% of the time and especially like the banter and having a laugh, even with oppo fans.
But it seems like the site has been inundated with anonymous (probably Utd or anti LFC) posters, all having a go at the club, Kenny, Comolli, the owners, the weather...
This is one of those times I skip over most of the posts.
I honestly refuse to believe these people are Liverpool fans. We have a got good owners with finance available, good team spirit, everything on the up.
But most of all, a fella in charge who we should ALL GET DOWN ON OUR KNEES AND THANK for loving the same club as us.
There are still a good few posters who are of the same mind as me, so thanks for making this site still readable boys.
Eds, dunno how you keep sane with this stuff but thanks to all you as well. Especially the Liverpool eds. I'm off to get a life, and am f****** loving Kenny's silence.

i know this might sound abit over the top but mayb the reason why we didnt sign wickham if there was intrest maybe was beause mata is considering us and with him used to play upfront for eal madrid b and us already having kuyt maybe there was no need to buy another striker or maybe we carnt sell ngog therefore there is no need for another forward player

To all LFC fans, dont be sad we missed couple of our target. There's plenty more talented player in each position...
LB: clichy.cissokho.kadlec.enrique
LW/RW: Mata.Vargas.Cazorla.Downing.Boudebouz.Perotti.
CF: NolanRoux.Vucinic.Lavezzi.Bojan.Aguero.Higuain.
CB: Lovren.Dann.Sakho.Kjaer.Zapata.

I believe DC already has shortlist but i think he need KD approve his targets. Remember KD want to get Suarez and we got him.

This transfer is gonna be the same. If KD want Lavezzi or Cavani.we WILL get him.

TrustKD.

Think John Henry realises we're all getting a bit twitchy. He's taken to twitter to say:

So, more Henderson's and less Cole's then...which we always knew anyway.

Now I know everyone knows that Charlie Adam is basically a Liverpool player already but there is more confirmation of this.

However, the source is Twitter but it can be reliable if you get the right people's information.

A guy who Charlie Adam has ben working in the gym with recently @Brian_Lion_Rose, a boxer was asked not long ago by a random user 'can you ask Charlie Adam if he will be joining Liverpool? Thanks' to which he replied 'he can't wait to join liverpool ;-)'

Great signing in my opinion. Especially with the 3 young lads going on loan, they get experience at a very good level in the championship and will have more of a chance to play together regularly.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 17:38:06
Blackpool have confirmed the signing of former manchester united midfielder (the next paul scholes) Bojan Djordjic on a free transfer which will pave the way for Adam to join us with the potential of jonjo shelvy stephen darby and danny wilson moving to blackpool on a season long loan plus a further 8mil

29 Jun 2011 17:23:52
Why so much tripe and concern over Wickham. We have not missed out on him, we simply decided that it was not worth spending £13m on him. Can you blame the club. He has absolute zero experience in the Premiership and we have equally if not more talented players of a similar age already at the club such as Ngoo and Suso. To spend £13m on a him when he would at best be the 4th choice striker next season makes no sense whatsoever. The £13-16m spent on Henderson is beginning to look cheaper and far better value for money by the minute. In KK and his team I 100% trust. Reality Red

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 17:19:20
Wickham signed four year deal with Sunderland.
Payet has join Lille for 7m.
KK should keep thinking.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 17:19:04
Our needs...
A Left-back: Various choices, currently there is no certain name to lead. Not a position that needs a "marquee" signing.

A Center Back: Various choices again most likely a young hungry player. Dann is the name to lead. Not a position that needs a "marquee" signing.

Left Winger(s): Two players that can play on the left, one must have it as a natural position the other one who can play anywhere on the midfield. Downing is the most likely player to join us currently. This is the only position that a "marquee" signing is needed and so the second most likely player to join us is Mata. Probably the club will move for him after securing Downing and Adam.

Midfielder: A position which is full. But since Adam is a necessity for KK, then Adam is the next player to join us, if Oyston drops his stupid arrogance.

Back up Striker: A very good YOUNG back up striker is needed. We lost Wickham, but I think we hyped the player too much just like Adam. I don't think he would have made a serious impact on the club, at least not in his first two years. Whereas Adam will probably make a difference, even a little. So I don't think Wickham was a necessity and that's why we let him go to Sunderland where he will play regularly. If we can't find a young player on the cheap who will make an instant impact, then we must find older players as back ups preferrably Diego, who will give solutions when needed. Lavezzi is another option but Lavezzi is not a player for the bench. So this position is the trickiest one as we need a rather cheap "bench player" who will give instant solutions.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 17:17:22
I think connor wickham is worth 8 million but in my opinion the backup striker role which liverpool want this season he is not ready for that as he is only 18 years of age and we want much mature and experienced.
I prefer park chu young.
What's your opinion ed. {Ed002's Note - Park Chu-Young is a good player and will be at Lille next year. I know very little of Wickham beside his reputation.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 17:10:40
I dont think Steven Gerrard was getting excited about winning trophys because Charlie Adam was signing to be honest... Roll on July 1st, I think Dalglish has a few tricks up his sleeve and has a few players already agreed to join the club.

29 Jun 2011 17:09:46
If Wickham was that good, he would have been bought by one of the bigger clubs Forget about him and move on.

Anyway, why pay £8m-£10M on an 18 year old when we have Morgan in the ranks.

People need to get real, Wickham is not good enough for us we already have Morgan waiting in the wings who I rate a lot higher. When KK does decide to dip his toe in the water for a striker he will be buying a proven quality striker, so sit back and have some patience...

CHARLIE Adam has told Blackpool that Liverpool is the club he wants to join and another Scotland international could hold the key to the deal.

Seasiders skipper Adam has held talks with chairman Karl Oyston this week and The Gazette understands the 25-year-old expressed the wish to move to Anfield.

Pool are thought to be holding out for around £8m plus three players on a season-long loan.

And it could certainly speed up the deal if they could convince the Merseyside club to include defender Danny Wilson in the package.

Sources close to Liverpool suggest that Kenny Dalglish is prepared to loan out the centre-half or left-back for the coming season and that he could seal the Adam deal.

Nineteen-year-old Wilson has also been linked with a return to Rangers, from where he signed from Liverpool last summer in a move that could eventually be worth £5m.

Despite the fee, Wilson made only eight appearances for the Reds last season, including games in Europa League and Carling Cup. He broke into the senior Scotland side last season, winning his third cap as a team-mate of Adam in the friendly against Brazil in March.

Wilson s fellow Liverpool defender Stephen Darby is another strongly linked with a loan move to the Seasiders as Kenny Dalglish s club step up their quest to bring in Adam alongside midfield recruit Jordan Henderson

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 16:30:01
We need to stop complaining about loosing out to players such as Wickam, Young and Payet. They really wouldnt have been that important in our team tbh. Now we need to start inquiring about some better quality players. The only top teams I see who seem to be linked with almost every single good player is Barcelona, Man City, Chelsea and Man U. These teams cannot sign all the great talent in the world as they simply wouldnt be able to offer them a place in their team, so there is still a chance that we, a team with no european football, can tempt the top talent around with the lure of garanteed first team football which is what any sensible footballer should really be looking for.
Keep the faith, players like Aguero, Coentrao, Hazard, Nasri and the like are not totally impossible.

Radio City sports news claimed that Wickham turned Liverpool down as he would get more first team action at Sunderland. {Ed002's Note - Hardly a shock is it.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 16:16:23
I really don't get what the moaning, whinging, grizzling, bleating about Wickham and Payet signing for other clubs and Downing and Adam seemingly dragging on is all about.

To begin with, there are LIVERPOOL targets and there REPORTED Liverpool (by the Media) targets. A distiction has to be drawn between the two.

Whislt it happens that targets reported by the media are indeed the targets of the club at that time (Henderson), it's not often the case (Joe Cole to Spurs for £3m).

The result of this is that gullible fans get suckered into these falsehoods and get enraged when news break that those "reported targets" have signed for X and LFC's "missed out" even though LFC were never at all interested.

The way things are done at our club now means that anyone outside the inner circles virtually has no clue about transfer matters.
People, the media especially, has either had to resort to conjecture, or has been miles behind info-wise.
(The Jordan Hendersen transfer bears testimony to this.)

Another thing fans need to understand is that there's a great of factors which impact on transfer dealings: talent of the concerned player, alternatives and attitude (of the buyer, in this case). Take Wickham for example.

Liverpool wanted the lad and were prepared to pay what they deemed the right price for him.
Then SAFC came in with a higher offer, and LFC walked.
That not because they didn't have the money to rival SAFC's bid, no.

KD and DC didn't rate the lad high enough (talent/ability) to pay that high for him.
They'd set their offer at an X amount were not prepared to be held to ransom or enter into an auction.
Lastly, the likes of Michael Ngoo and Adam Morgan likely were factored in. It was perhaps felt that these young lads may also be just as good as Wickham, so spending such a fortune on an untested player would be much more risky than trusting in the club's own youth products.

In any case, it could well have been considered that, taking into account his unproveness, Wickham at that fee would not have what we needed. There were other, perhaps better, options such as Nolan Roux, Benjamin Moukandjo.

The telling fact, though, is that Kenny didn't rate young Wickham high enough to pay £13m (incl. add ons).
Surely that's the most important thing here?

So, I don't exactly see how Liverpool "missed out" on Wickham (you should also add Payet, Turan, Zapata and a mediallion of others) when there wasn't even determination to get him.
Only players LFC's missed out on are Ashely Young and Phil Jones. No more.

Two things which have personally been encouraging to me is the fact, a) (virtually) nobody has a clue about LFC's transfer matters and b) we are prepared to walk away if not doing so is insensible.

If only some of our fans could a) let and trust KD and DC to do their jobs, b) stop being so gullible and getting suckered into the media rubbish and c) give new/potential new signings a break.

Grizzling about Downing, Adam or Clichy ISN'T going to stop Kenny buying them, so it won't help anyone.
These players are in all probability COMING, like it or not.
There's BUGGER ALL any of the moaners are going to do to change that.

So won't it best-serve everyone if all folk give them a chance to pull on that Red shirt and play? See then what they do.

Do people actually realise how futile and, quite frankly, pathetic, shallow and sickening it is having to listen to a grown man incessantly whining as though that's going to help the situation (not that the situation needs helping tho)?

It's what this place's become. Perhaps ye should all put on skirts and dresses and follow women/grannies.
Downing this, Downing that, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah Adam this, Adam that, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh

Shut up, just SHUT THE FOOK UP Sigh.

moan moan moan moan moan, pratically every post on here today is just that, a moan, for god's sake, grow up, are LFC fans or moaning old women, stop talking about KK and commoli like their total idiots, hardly any premier league teams have signed players at the moment, we didn't miss out on wickham, at no point at all did we read the headline bid from lpool for wickham turned down, how do you miss out on a player you don't even bid for, i also believe the fact no bid for adam has been made, not officially anyway, talks have been going on for how long now? the figure will be there that we have to pay, and when were ready we shall put that bid in,
i'll bet any money the deal is all but done, and when we send the bid it shall be accepted, so when oysten say's they have received no bids he isn't lying, but i certainly don't think we have spent all this time in talks with blackpool to have not had some sort of conclusion in principal sorted, it would be a total sham of a deal and we would have dropped interest ages ago as this has been going on apparetly since the henderson deal was done,
as for downing, he is a good player, he english, he will be over priced because of that, but we have the money and we need the players, good players to build a good squad, if he plays for LFC like he did for villa last year we'll have signed a top winger, the amount of moaning i am seeing on here today over some kid is ridiculous, had we put a bid in higher than sunderlands they would have come back in with another, as so on and so on, the fee would have been silly by the end of all that, Suarez and carroll are going to be a great force next year, no doubt, both have so much quality in so many different aspects, wickham wouldn't have got a look in, we need players to fit into the team right now, not in 3 or 4 years, henderson may be young but he will be going straight into the team, oh and never mind what old whisky breathe is doing at man u, they've signed 3 players, whoppie doo, whop gives a damn, they might sign another player until the last week of the window and then all you moaners will look like total morons, have some patience before you all wet your pants, your acting like children who want there favourite toy

Was just thinking to myself I dont want to jump on this panic bandwagon thats happening at the moment what ever happened to the manager making the signings and us fans rocking up at the start of the season and getting behind the team and whoever the club has bought? We spend far too much time worrying over how much other teams have spent and the amount we pay for certain players. I for one am a lot happier we aint just diving in and handing out crazy wages for average/poor players see polusen, cole, jovanavic last summer. I am sure king kenny is not going to sit back and allow Mr Commoli deal with transfers if he isnt happy with how things are being approached. I have to admit as a season ticket holder for many years I am not always without a moan or two about certain things but I believe its time we all sat back and let the manager we all wanted back so badly do what hes done before. Build a team/squad to challenge again. Thank you Eds sorry for the long speech. Your thoughts would be great. Keep up the good work.

Jimmy Carter Was Pants. {Ed001's Note - I am with you, I don't understand why people are getting so wound up over the signings. We all wanted Dalglish and yet now people aren't prepared to trust him to do that job and seem to think they know better than him!}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:46:06
I find it crazy that last month KK & DC were getting stick for having average English supposed targets ?

Now that those supposed targets are going elsewhere , people are pushing the panic button and still giving out stick ?

Have any of you who are panicking got any solid evidence from KK & DC that these players were Liverpool targets ?

How can you miss , If you do not take a shot ?

Charlie Adam wants to move to Liverpool

Charlie Adam's proposed transfer from Blackpool to Liverpool seems to have stepped up and extra notch according to the Blackpool Gazette. They report that Charlie Adam has held talks with the Blackpool chairman and has told him that he wants to join Liverpool.

This does not surprise me as there is no way Adam can play Championship football this coming season with his talent. He has to move back to the Premier League and he sights Liverpool as his prefered destination. As the transfer rumours have been making the rounds, Liverpool have been pegged as favourites to sign Adam ahead of Aston Villa, Tottenham and Manchester United.

It is now suggested that Blackpool may want Liverpool defender Danny Wilson to be part of the deal that takes Adam to Anfield. Before it was Jonjo Shelvey who was said to be part of the Adam deal. Either way, it is a good move if Wilson or Shelvey get the chance to go on loan to Blackpool for a full season where they can get regular first team football.

I guess the ball is now in Liverpool's court and they have to come in with a formal bid for Adam now. I know many fans are still not convinced if Adam is the right signing Liverpool should be making as it could mean that Raul Meireles will be sold this summer that is from a reliable source kopsource.com

Finally a bit of encouraging news. And if it happens we should all be delighted. There is a very credible bid for Pastore in the pipe line. At this stage it is not "formal" but there has been informal correspondence for a transfer with LFC. LFC certainly not the only horse in the race, but at least we are in the race, and are prepared to pay for this one. Very exciting indeed.

Reason Wickham signed for Sunderland as he is will get more games there. Liverpool are not in Europe so they won't have the luxury of throwing him in those types of games. Also 12m for an unknown is high risk at least with henderson he has done the business in the premiership.
Don't expect big name players as we are not in europe but be happy with the likes of adam and downing coming as we break into the top 4 and then chase the likes of hazard and mata.

there was some talk of park chu young before.. he's a great player. is lfc showing any interest eds?

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:29:08
Would have loved it if we managed to get Wickham but I honestly can't say I'm too bothered by losing out on a 4th choice striker (behind the Big British Transfer Record, Suarez and Kuyt of course) to a team who will play him in their first 11 often. Wish him the best and who knows, could still end up a Liverpool player someday.

Some "inductive reasoning" gossip. Stories all over the place today about the potential for Arsenal to lose both Cesc and Nasri (as always one must leave their credulity at the door when checking the internet for rumours). One can imagine a scenario where a smaller deal such as, oh, I don't know, Clichy to Liverpool becomes necessary to raise just a little more cash to get big name replacements in Arsenal's first 11. Just a thought.

To all the mighty keyboard warriors out there going on and on about how kenny and commolli this and that.
Just sit back and take a deep breath its not rocket science that newspapers and other media make up stories to sell themselves. We may well be in for certain players and lose out to other teams unfortunately thats what happens during transfer windows you dont get every player you desire but to lay blame when none of us really know who our targets are seems pretty pointless and most of us true fans and the eds are finding all the negativity quite irratating to be honest.
so if you think that kenny should be sacked commolli hung, or that NESV should sell up or that we should just pay the asking price for any player who the media associates us with.
Instead why dont you go out by a light blue shirt and a copy of blue moon and instead of watching a TEAM watch 11 mercenaries play.
because real liverpool fans get behind there team and manager no matter what.

Doing my head with people saying Henderson is s**te after judging him only On his under 21 performance.he will be a great player one day good engine box to box and bangs in a few goals, give the lad a chance like so menu ready to right off players on their so called professional opinion . We give Lucas a hard enough time and could of lost him , yet he showed all his doubters with a little time and the backing of his club you can srugg off the boo boys and shine.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:24:52
We need a lot more than 2-3 players and if you look at our last 2 games you'll see that, the top four's squads were better than ours and they'll all strengthen Spurs will to, sad we didn't get Wickham but I'm sure they have someone else in mind. Hope we don't sign Downing though.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:22:52
Wickham is stupid choosing Sunderland over us. He is destined for bigger things and they aren't going to allow him to leave easily when the time comes for him to move on.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:19:07
i don, t care what u people say, when you state that L, pool never wanted to sign Wickham. Of course they did, they have made no secret that they want young british players, hence paying over the odds for Henderson and Carroll, so why wouldn, t they want Wickham who is seen as the hottest young english prospect out there, tipped to be the next Alan Shearer, and look how he turned out, say no more.

So Liverpool have 'missed out' on:

Wickham
Jones
Young
Marveaux

So, what Makes posters on this page so sure that players like Mata and Aguero would like to play for you also?

What gives Liverpool more pulling power than the likes of Real, Chelsea, Barcelona, Milan, Inter, United or Bayern?

According to you guys you're on the way back up? back in the title picture? Well by reading this site and the players that get mentioned I really don't see how Downing, Adam, Henderson, etc, is going to make Liverpool a force again..

Hm, Certainly interesting times ahead for the 18 time league Champions.

Ed this might sound arrogant but do you think in a way we might be happy for Wickham to go to Sunderland? He is 18 and unproven at Premier League level. If he fails to fulfil his potential, 13 million is a big price to pay. If he does play well in the PL and become a hit, we have the money to take him from Sunderland and hopefully the lure of a big club after next season...I don't mean to be disrespectful to Sunderland but he's probably not going to achieve all of his dreams there {Ed005's Note - Not arrogant at all, it is just really what happens when players like Wickham go to lesser clubs like Sunderland. However I doubt we are just purposely letting the player move to another club for that reason.}


Can everyone slating Dc and KK regarding Wickham, read this very good post and answer This is the reason none of the other big clubs put a bid in also, let another club pay the money and try to develop him. He has only signed a 3 year deal, so we could get him for free then potentially when he is 21 Simples

Ed, is there more to the statement released by the Atletico president than meets the eye, or is he just spouting random clubs?

There was no mention of Juventus, it was just Real Madrid, Sevilla and Liverpool. If you want to know what his actual statement was, it was this.

"I swear to you I do not know where Aguero will play. Only his agent and himself know that."

"The players play where they want, and until they get tired. But if Aguero wants to go to Real Madrid, tough luck for us. If he plays for Sevilla, better, and if he goes to Liverpool, much better." {Ed001's Note - it is just referring to not wanting him to go to Real Madrid and preferably to not stay in La Liga to play against them. There is nothing more to it.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:09:28
Whether, we chose not to pursue Wickham or he chose not to come, we're better off either way As we should only buy the players we want and take on the players that want to play for us.

It's amazing that people can get wound up about a possible fourth choice striker.

At the start of last season, Ngog was 2nd choice and that was a weakness for us. With Carroll and Suarez in place and the probability that Kuyt will be played as a striker next season, Ngog is now fourth choice.

As we are likely to add more depth in midfield and maybe even a winger or two, we'll also be able to play with a lone striker.

Ngog (or Wickham, if we had chosen to sign him) might start a couple of games in the carling cup. Mostly, our 4th choice striker won't even make the matchday squad.

I can't see any importance in whether it's Ngog or Wickham. It won't have any impact on our league performance or our chances of winning anything.

after loseing wichham to sunderland liverpool are going to sign and try to sign Hugo Lloris (Lyon)
Stewart Downing (Aston Villa)
Charlie Adam (Blackpool)
Adri n (Deportivo de La Coru a)
Alberto Bot a (Sporting Gij n)
C sar Azpilicueta (Marseille)
Fabio Coentrao (Benfica)
Aaron Lennon (Tottenham)
if we can sign them we will defenliy can bring the primership back to anfild were it belonges

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:05:43
Well no sour grapes but I'm genuingly glad we didnt overly pursue Connor wickham. Looks a decent enough prospect, but I wasn't overly inspired by the times I saw him play.

Good luck to the lad tho. Excited to see who KK and DC bring in and looking forward to a new exciting season. C'mon the reds

29 Jun 2011 15:05:33
Hi everyone I do not have a rumour but just a thought there has been a lot of talk about adam, downing, mata, adam johnston, enrique, and clichy. I have a funny feeling that like wickham they will be signing for other clubs it just seems while we talk other clubs put in bids and get the players they want hope I am wrong.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:05:07

A lot of worried, frustrated Liverpool fans it would appear because we haven't gone all guns blazing and signed a new team yet Be patient is my message trust KK and the board. Window is not even open yet and when it does plenty of time until it shuts. Yes we would like all the players we want signed right now but these things can take time and clubs know we have money now so are no doubt trying to get the best deals possible, and why wouldn't they.

People saying this target gone, that target gone, we have missed out again. If these were actual targets we would have bought them. If we really wanted Wickham we would have signed him

I am still very optimistic we will sign the players we need just have faith. Nobody seen Big Andy C coming did they so I think some pleasant surprises in store for us all.

Kepp the faith fellow reds

Cheers Eds great site

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:03:42
Payet has signed for Lille.
Wickham has signed for Sunderland.
Can someone please tell me, were these players just rumours or have we just been too slow again, if we have why? This is a joke if we have, Henderson is not good enough, Man Utd seem to be getting there targets easy enough.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:03:29
All of the people saying that we just need to be patient, its pretty hard to be patient when other clubs are signing good players so easily and we keep saying we will sign loads of players but never do, wasting our time now

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:03:14
Wickham had a chance to join his boy hood club with Liverpool willing to match sunerlands offer. only for HIM to prefer a move to the blackcats for more playing time, price 8m raising to 12m

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 15:02:36
Wish everyone would stop moaning still a whole month left of window and people losing faith already fact of matter is only kk and dc know who they want so just because papers link us with targets don't mean dc kk have same targets papers are only guess work. It's like kenny said number of Times if Liverpool have any news they will tell us everyone just take deep breath and trust the club u love.

I'm not disrespecting Any eds, or Anybodys sources, I read the site daily and am loving the anticipation No one knew about Henderson until last minute, to me the club seems airtight Which is great news, personally I feel the British players will be to help the home grown side of things because carra and stevie are not getting any younger I would personally like to see rafa come back to the club now that sammy has gone to help the youth system that I believe he had a part in ( eds?) kenny himself said we don't need loads of players and the ones we do buy will be better than we currently have, amazing time to be a Liverpool fan

hate to disagree macca but I don't believe that's true, we wanted jones but he didn't sign, we wanted marveaux and he didn't sign.
I think its a bit embarassing to just claim we never really wanted a player when they don't sign.

Not saying this in wickhams case, you're prob right bout him, but lfcis not such an easy sell anymore.

We also wanted young who didn't sign. Im sure we will sign some good players and be happy enough come december but in the meantime let's not keep saying " we never really wanted him anyway" like a nine year old who lost his favourite toy.

completely agree the reason we didn't get him is because we didn't want him, just like when we signed jones we wanted him and so we g...what he went man u? But we wanted him though? I thought we got any player we wanted?
Oh I see because he didn't sign we are using the line that we never wanted him. Very clever.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 14:53:53
I would just like to point out to the brainless numptys who keep whinging about being pipped to signings

1. Just because we watch a player doesnt mean we will go for him(we watch millions)
2. Just because we enquiry about a player doesnt mean we will go for him due to numerous things like wages, player not wanting to come etc.
3. Just because the press says we are linked doesnt mean we actually are
4. Just because it is on fans wish lists, doesnt mean it is on the clubs target list

So before you carry on whinging have little think about it, not every player that we are linked with can come, because we would have to sign 5 a day until the end of the window

Thankyou

Strange that macca cause this is the 3rd player who had "signed" for us this summer (young jones wickham) nd we haven't gotten any of them so it's not nonsense that we missed out we did jones and young are good players unfortunately and Utd got dem now were in for downing who's pure s**te nd people r saying " oh hes better dab young anyway" well he's not he's rubbish same is happening with wickham no and will happen if we don't land downing it'll be " oh well (random winger) is better anyway that's probably why we didn't sign him" all bollocks we just don't have de same lure anymore and the sooner we face it the better were playn in the daffy duck league on Europe and no one big wants to sign not for the next couple of years anyway

I'm absolutely livid that Wickham, a player we obviously wanted, has gone to a club like Sunderland. Our policy under Charlie Corroli seems to be: offer well below the true value as an opening gambit (as with Suarez), when the other team says no he sits it out in the hope that they will get desperate and drop the price. In the meantime, other teams get wind of our plans and come in and offer the true asking price. We then get desperate and try to match the bid but usually end up losing the player by then. Make no mistake, this would have happened with Suarez as well had not the Torres sale forced him to increase the bid. It's funny that the only player we've actually signed is Henderson and nobody gazuimped us on that one, probably because nobody else wanted him. When we signed Henderson I was very surprised that he was a target. (I'm not knocking him and he may turn out to be a good player for us).However it all fitted into place when I read that he was number 4 in the statistics for creating chances. This is obviously what has alerted him to statman Charlie Corolli who can only judge a player by sitting in front of a computer looking at the Opta Index. Oh for the days of Geoff Twentyman, who could look at a player on the pitch and recognise talent by the way he passed and kicked the ball. Not only that, he knew if he had the temperament and character to fit into the Liverpool way. If Comolii had offered £10 million in the first place the player would be ours by now and we wouldn't have to come in with last minute £13m bids.

What Commoli does, almost anyone with access to a computer could do. I'm sure KK is biting his tongue watching this clown at work. As much as I hate Man U, you have to admire them in the transfer market. They identify the player they want, they put in a realistic bid. They already know the player will come to them, having previously tapped him up and the deal is sealed with the minimum of fuss.

My words today may be harsh, fuelled by the disappointment of missing out on a player who will be worth a lot more in a few years time. However, all I can say to Comolli and KK is to prove me wrong. If you pull something spectaculour out of the bag by the time the window closes, I'll come on here and apologise. Not that I'm holding my breath.

29 Jun 2011 14:39:53
Sammy Lee has left, Commolli is picking transfer targets, Kenny has no say, Young and Jones chose united over us which in fairness we cant argue about but now wickham has chosen sunderland over us and b4 people say we didnt want him, we did, this is just gettin crazy now, wer paying stupid money 4 half decent players and i think thats the reason we've got henderson and carroll, 20m and 35m... crazy

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 14:37:49
Here is the point which I think those who are panicking need to consider.....

We are missing out on signing the ones we are being linked with, but its not Comolli or KK who are linking us with them, is it? Who is linking us with them in the first place?

I personally believe that false information is leaked out to protect our real targets.

Do we seriously believe that if we had really wanted Wickham, we could not have matched Sunderlands 8m cash with add-ons offer? We didnt want him, because we already have Carroll.

I have greatest of respect for the Ed's and Macca, but lets face it. Sometimes information will be leaked deliberately to put everyone off the scent.

Im personally excited that we have missed out on Jones, Wickham and Adam (so far), as it could mean bigger names coming in out of the blue.

Keep the faith Red Men

29 Jun 2011 14:33:47
why is everybody on this site cross with KK and DC neither of them have once come out and said we want to sign "payet" "wickman" "jones". those have all been rumours spread by people on this site, other rumours sites and journo's who no absolutely nothing. trust in KK and DC they will get the players they want

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 14:31:33
ED do you think Wickham sunderland is a gentlemens agreement between the clubs as Ngog couldnt agree personal terms ? {Ed002's Note - The transfer of Wickham between Ipswich and Sunderland does not include any agreements with Liverpool - gentleman's or otherwise.}

Fellow Reds Why the panic? we have money this summer? so if we wanted players like wickham etc we would pay the price if not more to get him, obviously KK & DC have other idea's lets just see what happens.

I for one think we will land Mata within the coming weeks and if we do i'll be delighted

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 14:22:54
what is going on with our beloved LFC....
agree with most of the post here recently on all names we have been linked with have ended going elswhere? wickham to safc why for christ sake would we not put in for him when we paid 16+ for henderson.... payet gone wickham gone the sh*** got jones? lets see what happens in July. I trust in the guys but it just seems like always we offer stupid money for overrated players then offer nothing for people who could make a big change/impact.. and with SL poss gone something is abit messed up at the mo...
anyone know what is truly going on??

I'm getting well cheesed off with the amount of targets and the lack of signatures. Can anyone please tell me there is a big signing happening soon

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 14:13:59
Well we obviously didn't want wickham that badly as he has now signed for sunderland
Do we have options outside of the prem or are we losing out on targets as we are just too slow

Sunderland have confirmed the signing of connor wickham, looks like we missed out :(

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 14:09:06
This is for all so-called "fans" complaining about Commoli and even Kenny. Shut up and be patient. Use your brains and realise that half the stuff you read on the internet and in the tabloids is complete garbage. On July 1st the doors will be opened for us to get the players we need from France, Germany, Italy and Spain. Have you ever considered we have targets that not even the media knows about? Who knew about meireles? and Joe cole? Everyone complains about making sure we do things the "liverpool way" and then when things go quiet we take every piece of crappy "journalism" as a fact and use it to complain about which players we are linked with. Sorry for the rant but I swear half the posts on this site are written by bitters and mancs just to p*** the real fans off.

Sunderland sign Connor Wickham on 4 year deal.

Another possible signing gone to another team.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 14:05:42
Will everybody calm down, i hate these stupid comments about turkan and wikum and payet/hazard No one is a posistion to say who we should be after just be patient and wait for the first day of the season and then lets see who we have bought and if its downing/adam/dann then so be it, but dont anyone dare criticies KK & DC we are in a great position, we dont need any negative (we shud get him, why arnt we bidding for him) And by the way boys iv been watching mata for 3/4 years and hes not that good, chill AJW 76

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 14:18:39
Maybe Mata's going no where. Mata is planning to take some time off and is happy at Valencia

29 Jun 2011 14:18:02
We need to stay calm and trust the owners, KD and DC.

Yes we have only bought one player so far and it was unexpected but these things take time.

I understand it is better to get players in early so they can settle and have a full pre season with their new team mates and club.

I persoanlly think the mancs have panicked and rushed into a few of their deals.

de gea - very good talent but unproven playing for a big club and the pressure that comes with it. Might take him 2-3 years to adapt, will ferguson have the patience?

Jones - looks good but still hefty price and I personally think he dives in a bit to much.

Young - performed well for a number of years in the premier leaugue but can he make the next step up. Surely he would have done it already if he was that good.

Now just considering a "what if scenario" in the last 2/2.5 weeks of the transfer window we manage to pull off some amazing deals and ship out alot of the cr@p.

What if DC manages to get mata, hazard, adam, clichy, downing and a back up striker.

We could then look back and think we will have had an extremely good transfer window and have a squad to mount a real challenge for honours. We need to remember "patience is a virtue"

People might say "yeah but without champions leaugue so an so won't come". I understand this is crucial for players but outline your plans for the club and offer them a suitable wage packet and I am sure LFC will be a very desirable place for players to come.

Plus playing for the king and in front of the kop and it should be the only place any player wants to play.

Hahahaha, those two apparent Citeh fans gave me a good laugh earlier, what a pair of football uneducated idiots they are. One trophy in 35 years and world domination beckons, now may I remind them during that period Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa and Everton won more leagues and European silverware than they did
The lad who said, the reason why I stopped supporting Everton was because they didn't match his ambition, complete t**l, you are a fair-weather fan and give real City fans a bad name.
To the other lad MCFC 4 Life, so your endless supply of cash , guarentees success, you clearly don't know much about football, teams are built not bought

So Citeh will continue to buy all the best players in the world for years to come, may I suggest that you look up fifad 9 +9 rule, I think u find there will be a significant change in City's transfer policy on its introduction, LFC, United, Arsenal will be well set whilst Chavski and Citeh will nit object to it strongly

Now boys, go stand in the corner, pipe down and keep yer mouth shut until ye actually win a league

Hey eds and pool fans everyone needs to calm down about our transfers, so we have missed out on 2 or 3 signings and there is alot of people giving out over that from what i read on here and other sites arent we linked to every good player on the planet now im not that good at maths but doesnt that leave us with 100's of more players to get? Or would the fans giving out prefer us not to be going after very good/great players and buy the s**t we bought last year get real kenny is doing a great job and our mighty club has been completely transfromed in a year we are doing it the liverpool way be happy we have nothing to complain about and look forward to the new season adamynwa

How about if we make an agreement with SAFC in that we buy whickham, they get N'gog and we give them whickham on load for a season.
Win Win for both parties-
Liverpool get rid of some dead wood and let a youngster get some feel for the premier league
Sunderland- get N'gog and whickham for a season.

Pat {Ed002's Note - Leaving Liverpool without the back up striker they wanted and about £15M out of pocket. I think not.}


15mill out of pocket- hows that? they will get the N'gog transfer fee.

And possibly hamper Whickhams development by throwing him in deep end when an injury crisis hits, would rather send him to a mid table team for a season, less pressure, more room for development and getting a feel for his game and the premier league.

-Pat-

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 13:28:20
so frustrating watchin wickham go to sunderland....i believe he has bags more potential than carroll had...at that agewill be worth 20million+ in a few seasons....supports lfc and is yound and english, surely he fits the critearia of the players we are looking for?eds what your feelings??

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 13:24:13

The teams running out and players names sung.

From the Blackpool Gazette:

CHARLIE Adam has told Blackpool that Liverpool is the club he wants to join and another Scotland international could hold the key to the deal.


Seasiders skipper Adam has held talks with chairman Karl Oyston this week and The Gazette understands the 25-year-old expressed the wish to move to Anfield.

Right i'm getting really angry with our transfer policy. Get Comolli out, get that Dalglish out. What do they know? Just heard that Jamie Cureton has finalised a deal to go to Leyton Orient.

You clearly don't support Daglish as you refer to him as " That Daglish ". Why waste your time posting on teams you don't support

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 13:07:31
Conner wickhem is 18 years of age paying 13m for him now would be easy worth it if he turns out to be half as good as he is meant to be he is going to be worth at least 30-40m when he is older i think this is a bad loss if sunderland get him because we will end up buying him in the future for around 40m. if we can take a punt of 35m for andy caroll who is 22 years of age, why not take a 13m punt on a 18 year old who will be a far better player than andy caroll

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 13:01:43
If Liverpool had signed connor wickham i know for a fact there would be at least thirty posts saying how we've been ripped off. People are saying Liverpool's targets are slipping away but i can't for the life of me remember Kenny Dalglish issuing a list of player he wants to sign, i mean Palermo have just signed Zahavi is that another player missed.

Ed i know this is a bit of a rant but the moaning was understandable with the last owners and under Hodgson but now we have a manager who everyone wanted and owners who will back him if needed. Personally i just cant see the problem.

---------------------------------------------------
Are you for real, ohnestly this has to be possibly the worst post i have ever read and that includes messi transfer posts. What transfer policy are you refering too. There may well be one but since the international window hasnt opened yet I can only assume your judging it on January's signings thus taking it youre unhappy with Suarez, Carroll and King Kenny taking us from bottom to 7th in half a season. Out of all them things at the very most you could have a pop about caroll being overpriced but thats allready been explained. Seriously mate I think you need to find a new team to support. I suppose you're one of those who hoped we were gonna sign snachez, messi, villa, hazard, payet, mata, aguero and swap Ngog for santon and pato and let AC and Inter share him. Get A grip mate.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 12:58:15
I think everyone should chill, we had a great end to the season jst gone and i suspect that KK will be firing on all cylinders to make sure we get some quality to add to what we already have. I beleive we will be unveiling 3-5 signings at once ( big photo shoot) Shows our intent to do it the liverpool way and scare the life out of the mancs and the rest of the premiere league

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 12:56:55
We are so lucky to have this guy Dr.Peter Brukner taking care of the medical, fitness side of things.With his expertise, we could see our injury prone players like Aurelio, Agger, Gerrard having much lengthier spells of fitness allowing them to play to their potential and establish stability in the side. They could be like new signings credit must go to Rafa Benitez for this , along with what he did with the academy which is actually WORLD CLASS. From the owners to the king in his throne to steve clarke , the whole set up at Liverpool football club is healthier than it has been in many many years, and looks to be getting better. It is all the more sweet coming so soon after such a terrible spell under Gillett and Hicks , and the Hodgson 'era' ( their names literally make me shudder).
Anyway its onwards and upwards with hope in our hearts...walk on.

I know that we will sign some good new players but at the moment nothing seems to be happening which makes it all so depressing. It is perhaps good that Liverpool don't want to pay over the odds for certain players but other clubs do and we lose out. The fact that players want to go to the likes of newcastle and sunderland show that they are in fact not good enough for Liverpool and it is their loss and not ours. What we really need is to be more agressive both on and off the field. Gerrard, Reina and Carragher all seem to be pretty optimistic so I' m sure that they must have some idea of what is going on. Let's hope that their optimism pays off. I apologise for my stupid comments from yesterday that luckily weren't posted.

Is it just me, or are we loosing out on all of our summer targets? There obviously have been no moves at all for Adam, Wickham has been lost to the Black Cats (heck - can't we even compete with them in the market?), Mata won't come without CL football in a month of Sunday's, Clichy isn't coming, Young has gone to the Mancs, Redknapp will never let Lennon leave and we face next season with the usual burden of hope but no realistic chance of winning everything. I am really concerned - if KK doesn't get it right this next season then we will never climb back to the top because the gap is getting bigger, not smaller and we will simply fight the Toffees for mid-table obscurity.

Looks like we missed out on Connor Wickham....not too bothered about this, if he does decide to join Sunderland. And I can understand why he would, seeing as he would get regular first team football. However it is concerning that another 'dead cert' signing may slip away (like marveaux) from under our noses. Man Utd have been aggressive in their transfers, and despite the eds saying that arsenal, Chelsea and man city have not bought anyone yet either, their teams are still stronger than ours, so they do not need to be as aggressive in the Market. The point is that Liverpool I believe is a bigger club than all these clubs, and in order to claim our rightful position in English football, we need to be out there and be aggressive in buying new Players. Instead of underbidding, just try to wrap up the deal as quickly as possible before other teams get involved.

Sorry about the rant but i looks at the players we are looking at and whilst it is good to see that we are going after young British players, it is clear that A squad with mainly british players will not be good enough....look at the national team as an example, they are sh1te

Anyway eds, still think this is an awesome site and keep the good work up. Please post in rumours page.

Right i'm getting really angry with our transfer policy. Get Comolli out, get that Dalglish out. What do they know? Just heard that Jamie Cureton has finalised a deal to go to Leyton Orient.

We all know we need a striker, someone who knows where the goal is and can support what we have, he was cheap, so why didn't we get him? Can't believe we've missed out on so many players. If the club had played their cards right we'd have about 1, 100 players on the books now. And a squad that's deep enough to challenge on one front.

Every player that signs for another club is piling more misery on us. Comolli was bought in to sign every player on this planet. Dalglish was bought back because he knows how to play 1, 500 players every week.

If Carlsberg did crap posts it would read like this one.

But seriously why didn't we sign Cureton? :)

BUT are we just changing our minds as time goes on or did we really want them that much?

we now seem to have wingers in our mind -
Lennon, Downing, Calorza, Jeffren
+ other players such as Adam, Park Chu Young and Mata.
Remember this is only the start of the transfer season, not the end. Players become available as other deals happen. Patience

To all the whingers saying we've missed out on another target Blah Blah Blah
Have you never bid for anything on E-Bay,
You set yourself a price of what you think it's worth and then bid up to that amount if someone is desperate and outbids you and pays well over the odds Well at least you've pushed the price up and hopefully it will be a load s**te when they get it :)
Same with Footie players any Club is gonna be interested in Decent players at the right price but once the price exceeds your evaluation you have to pull out.

Reading through some posts from this morning, i really dont understand why domestic teams from any league put stars on their shirts. I could understand Brazil doing it winning the World Cup and other International teams who've won it following suit. But at domestic level it just goes to show how s**te your team is if you can fit 2 stars on your shirt like the City fan earlier said they'd be adding another one. Teams like us who've actually won things on time after time, year after year, dont need s**tty starts to remind us what we've won. We'd look f***in daft putting 50 stars plus on our kit. Unless they were for Europe but still not my cup of tea. Real teams with real history dont need a couple of poxy f***in stars, and also you look the biggest set of t**ts i've ever seen in my life when you score a goal, i seriously have to turn my tv over if it happens because i was sick all over my dogs first time i seen it. If you're going to come up with a celebration for your goals, dont pirate one that all sad f***in teams have started doing (sorry Celtic you too). Ye stick a nice pink star on your kit if you win Charity Shield, sure you'll be having an open top bus ride for that as well, f***in fraggle's. Jonson6

Getting the impression people are getting disenchanted.Very few people will really know kennys targets.he didn't do too bad with what he inherited and it just goes to show how players who the fans thought were crap actually uppud their game under kennys guidance.(I feel it only fair to mention clarkes input also which has certainly improved attitude and performance throuout the team. Take the players response to questions from journos and how much they are enjoying themselves with the new (way it used to be) system.take the display the youngsters have played during this spell also.there is not much needing sorting at LFC so just hold on. The most expensive players do not make the best players for us. The best players are those who WANT to play for us and can do a job to suit the team ethos and not think he should play every week cause he cost a fortune and gets paid most. Several teams are loaded with this type of player and its not our way. (Excuse long Post) JIM22

All these names being discussed, my opinion is we arent after all of them. Henderson is an example of how LFC work now, nobody knew about his signing until it was announced and this will be the case with all our other purchases. I believe we will buy some quality world class players that the papers or you 'people in the know' have not even mentioned. Steveo

Am watching a recording of our 4-0 Champions League thrashing of Madrid at Anfield.
My, oh my The passing, incisiveness and precision, movement, fluidity, high tempo, energy.
Good lord
Amazing, simply amazing

When this system was in full swing, we was literally unplayable, I mean LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE
Remember when we played Barca completely off the park in the opening 30 minutes at Anfield a coupla years earlier.
It was beautiful.

Our possession retention was immense. I think we were even rated number one or two at some stage.
The beauty was that there was an end product to that possession, UNLIKE tippy-tappy Arsenal.

The point here is not about living in the past or nostalgia, no.
I genuinely believe that we CAN rival Barcelona.
I don't buy into this "they're a storm that will run its course" myth.

That 08/09 team, with Xabi as the conductor in the middle, played a high line, had the energy and industry to hunt and hurry Barca all over the field into making mistakes and cramping their style.

That team could move the football at twice the speed and precision of the Barca.
Something United, Chelsea, Arsemal and many others aren't capable of.

It was NO accident that when we got going, teams got s**tting.
They simply could not cope.

And what I saw against City (3-0) and Fulham (2-5) last season was enough to convince me that, with the right players and sufficient time, Kenny WILL make this team a crushing machine, a genuine challenger to Barca.

The passing, movement, precise, tempo and energy displayed was the best I'd seen from a Prem team; certainly better and far more productive than futile farce they call "beautiful" football at the Emirates.

Beautiful (and crucially, productive) football is what people will see when Kenny has his system in full swing.

Personally, I can't wait.
I hope the 2013 Champions League final in Wembley will be contested by us and the Catalans, we can show the world not only how to play Barca, but also how to BEAT them.

But for now we should focus on re-establishing ourselves as credible challengers.
The rest will follow.
But I'm excited, regardless.

Payet to lille done 7.2 mill what a bargain Now i am annoyed There better be something good being planned behind scenes. {Ed002's Note - I would try not to get annoyed with every transfer that happens across Europe - or your blood will be boiling come the end of August.}

Sammy lee has stepped down as liverpool assistant manager .
--------------------------------------
It was all fairly amicable. Lee realised things have moved on at Liverpool under the new owners. Lee has also received a very good offer from Sven to join his coaching staff at Leicester. Lee retains a strong relationship with Sven from their England days.

I just wish many of you people would stop posting 100% lies Everyday I see atleast 6-7 posts which say : "i just saw adam/aguero/johnson/wickham.. etc.. in the supermarket/on the street/in melwood". I know this is a site for rumours but there are people who are clearly making stuff up and posting it. It's a great site but the people who keep posting lies should really STOP

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 11:28:53
missed out on jones, missed out on young and now wickham, critisising the king is treason so i wont an never will i just hope hes gonna pull sumat outta the bag

what are your views ed ? {Ed002's Note - All I have seen for a couple of days is folks moaning about Dalglish and Comolli. There seems to be little recognition that the club are making the efforts over Downing and Adam, and are no doubt working hard in other areas. What will happen when Sanchez goes to Barcelona or Neymar to Chelsea? Two more players missed? I think for now the fans have to wait and see which signings come in and how they do over the coming months before trashing the management team or transfer policy.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 11:25:57
Hi Eds,

Regarding the rumours of Sammy Lee leaving LFC, why have the club not made a official annnouncement as yet considering its all over the internet ? do you think he will be replaced and if so who in your opinion would be best suited to the club ? {Ed002's Note - I am not going to suggest replacements. Steve Clarke is at the club and is a fine coach. I cannot answer whay teh Club have not made any statement - but please do not see it as any sort of secret message or anything else. It will no doubt be mentioned once a press release has been drafted and approved. Standard words thanking him for his service and wishing him well for the future.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 11:24:38
You have to laugh at the headlines this morning that Sunderland has beaten LFC to the signing of Wickham.

No dis-respect to Sunderland but if we really, really wanted him then no doubt we would have flexed our muscles and punched them out of the frame.

The same is said about Payet. Lille have gotten their man. If we were even at the point of being asked to be kept updated, then we would have made the decision to either make a bid or leave well enough alone.

The answer is where the player ends up. So now you know Payet and Wickham were just rumours, stoked up by the media, swallowed up by the fans.

Or perhaps you are one of the fans who believe our current transfer performance to be shocking and we should have bid well in excess for a player we didn't want?

Which way do you want it? Pay over the odds for a player we didn't want (Wickham) or pay over the odds for a player we did want (Henderson)?

Or you could moan about both ways, as no doubt 35% of the fans on here will do. A worryingly high minority amount

Additional money will be raised by the sale of certain players as well.}

However, all of the preparation can be completed and agreements reached.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 11:07:54
I have figured this all out now With all the players seen in Liverpool of late; Adam, Aguero, Clichy.. Now I think what's going on is that maybe Liverpool are not in for these players at all - I think they're stalking Liverpool Football Club and should be reported to the police, no wonder Liverpool are scared to sign players - they're afraid to know what these obsessed players will do if they go elsewhere, freaky.

Eds i know yous are problably sick of all of this but can i just ask why it is taking us so long to sign up players compared to the spam who have already signed 3 players i know there is complecations with adam but what is stopping us from persuing our other targets?

D690 {Ed002's Note - Like who? The International transfer window is not open so no one can actually sign. Downing has complications but efforts are being made. Adam has complications but the club are trying to strike a deal. Do you think a buy for the sake of it would satisfy the fans? Wayne Bridge - would iy make you feel better? Chelsea have not completed any signings either. Spurs, Arsenal, Manchester City?}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 11:05:10
Speaking to Sportyou.es, Enrique Cerezo (atletico madrids president) left the door open to that option. "I always said that players play where they want until they get tired. I swear I do not know where it will play Ag ero. Just know that he and his environment. But if Kun is going to Real Madrid, bad luck if he plays for Sevilla, better, and it is in Liverpool, much better. " Wot do you recon ed's? {Ed002's Note - I suspect there were no secret messages and teh teams were being used as an example. Did he wink when he said "Liverpool"?}

Barnes was a great player but is not a coach, assistant or manager. Tranmere awful at best and dont you remember the last time he and dalglish linked up. Celtic are still trying to pick up the pieces

Why are people getting so wound up over transfer inactivity. We all have to trust KK and have faith that a lot is happening behind the scenes and if certain players go else where then so be it. It is a fact that we will sign some world class players that in KK s opinion are better than those we may have missed out on. Fergie is worried that is why he has signed players so early in the window. Henderson will prove a quality signing and it may take a little longer than people may be comfortable with but I really believe KK will blow us all away with some suprise and world class signings. We all know the areas that need strengthening, LB, CB.RW, LW, CREATIVE CM, AND ST. KK will be determined to get it right no time to panic keep the faith and we will all be smiling in a few weeks. Also just like to say sorry to see Sammy Lee go a true Red but probably the correct desition for the club and the team to take us forward. Good luck Sammy YNWA. Any comments ED. The site is fantastic by the way I'm on it at least 3-4 times a day. Cheers

I do not know if this has been commented on before but I see Liverpool play a friendly against Valencia in early August. Part of a deal for a player ??

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 10:11:53
Having read this site over the past few days cant help but notice this widespread panic that has crept in due to the fact that utd have managed to blow 50 million on three players that wont even improve their starting eleven. Is Young better than nani or valencia - No, is Jones going to start ahead of vidic or ferdinand if fit - No, is de gea better than van der sar - No. I dont quite understand the widespread hysteria

Yes like any other fan I would like to see us complete our signings early and sign a crop of superstars but lets be realistic the superstar thing wont probably happen until we are back in the champions league and if signings have not been completed yet I am sure there are many permutations as to why this is the case. I am confident that we will ultimately get our targets and as a result will have a stronger outfit next season. If this gets us back amongst the big boys then it would be more realistic to assume we could challenge for the signatures of some of the world class talent out there.

As an aside really happy to see less and less in the papers regarding transfers, suggests to me that things may be moving on nicely behind the scenes.

iam starting to wonder if lfc are going to sign any of the players that have been talked about. i think its top draw the way its all being done behide closed doors. just like the old way. but what i will say is if kk, dc were going to get likes of adam, downing i think they would of done it by now. iam not saying we wont but for some reason it seems to me that they are now looking somewhere else. i dont think for one minite its to do with money or having to sell first.i think people on here who are moaning about us not being quicker in getting players need to think back what kk said at the end of the season. he is happy with most of the players he has. no matter what we may think of some of them. he will add what he thinks will give us more. for the last ten years or so all we have done is buy and sell six or seven players every year and we have not built a settled side. i do think a few will be shown the door and the likes of raul m, j cole will only go if it is part of a deal to do with another player. when it comes to players coming in we all know we need wingers but what ones we will go for is anyones gess. the truth of the matter is know one nose who kk is going to go for even if they think they have the inside info. not even the press. i say fair play to lfc. this is the way it should be.

Well done liverpool you've won the CL 5 times and you've won 18 league titles. You've had some great managers and some great players but you need to stop dragging up your past.

Yeah city have a lot of catching up to do but in time HOPEFULLY we'll get there.

I think we'll seriously challenge the scum and chav next season but also think you'll get 4th.

And to the people who think they know everything about citys financial status and revenue, may i inform you that sheik Monsour has agreed a 1 billion deal with Manchester council to redevolop the area around eastlands and to potentially build hotels restaraunts and a casino all in citys name to get more revenue.

And what was the score last season at eastlands?...... I think you'll find we won 3-0 when we were at home

29 Jun 2011 10:04:10
Watched Charlie Adam at BFC for three years and wow, good player, real tough with loads of vision and not seen a left foot better for some time, him and vaughan dominated many prem midfields last season. Regardless of price paid for Henderson, charlie will be the best purchase we make for the midfield this summer, I just hope we get it done before another club comes in for him. Liverpool are clearly his first choice and although meetings between clubs have taken place I would hate him to end up at rival club. Stump up some money and get the boy signed, Liverpool fans will love him..

Left Footed players bring balance to a team if you dont have them you always look disjointed and tend to do most attacking down the right.
Now that we have Suarez who likes to drift out to the left, we need left footers even more to support him.
That's why were constantly linked to left footers.
We need Balance and have done for an age
At last Kennys come in and is addressing the problem immediately.
So I for one will be happy with any left footers Kenny deems good enough.

Morning Eds and everyone

Just reading some of the posts from last night and my God there are some upset people out there, must of been a fun night for you Eds?

First of all Wickham, we were never after him, because we have Carrol, from what I've heard anyway, what we are after is a striker that has pace "Speed, Speed, Grease Lightning Speed" (Rocky II) We have a powerful forward in Carrol a trickster in Suarez and a grafter in Kuyt but no one with speed. Imagine if we are away to Arsenal and Suarez and Kuyt are injured and we had bought Wickham, we would have Carrol and Wickham up front, we would be annihilated would we not?

The other thing, let the other teams spend all their cash on the Neymars and Sanches' of this world, I bet we end up with players that people are going to say "I never saw that coming" Imagine if we signed Thomas Muller for example WOW I would rather have him than Neymar, Sanches or Aguero or Mata come to think about it.

If the situation is still the same come the start of the season then panic but please don't press any implode buttons just yet when its the 29th June. There are many many big name players out there 99% of which haven't been mentioned in the press.

One last thing I think I should mention a lot of people seem surprised about the cost of players this window Jones/Henderson for example, the reason being Premiere teams are getting a lot more money this season due to world wide commercial activity of the Premiere League which has been passed on to the clubs and on to the price of players so it is all relative in retrospect, what was a £10m player last season is now a £20m player this season sort of thing, what made me laugh was someone put that Agger is worth £9m hahahaha yea right Try putting a 2 in-front of that 9 then we will talk ;)

Anyways I have no more news other than I think God will be our third coach, just a hunch, have a nice day and cheer up guys

I'm happy that Sammy lee has finally left the club. Good chap but a poor coach and out of his depth. Good luck to him for the future though. Steve Clark would probably take his place by all accounts, but it'd be intresting to see who would be the new 1st team coach then? Ideally I would want anyone of Roy Evans, Didi, Sami Hyypia or Ian Rush. Who would you want ed and everyone?

Hi Eds

previously posted on here about my stepsons knowing Paul Konchesky and a work colleague knowing Connor Wickham's dad.

It's strange but previously Paul was happily banding around who he was talking to but the last few days he has refused to comment on anything.
Also, Connor's old man has not mentioned anything regarding Liverpool when questioned over the last couple of days. He has said that Connor is not keen on going to Sunderland but when asked about our interest he just shakes his head, when pushed he added he couldn't say.

Has there been a complete lock down on any talk of transfers within?

A friend of mine works with Ryan Bertrand's brother at a large US Bank in London. he has stated he is v happy where he is, he may go on loan but will not be coming to us in the near future (he has also blagged a serous wag already)

Just a thought but is the signing of Payet to Lille a pre requisite to cover another winger leaving the club? No gossip on that just my personal thoughts.

So if there is a lock down within the club it opens the door for any kind of signing as we will not have a wiff of it first. Exciting times ahead maybe but the suspense is killing me

RedScouse
(Southern Section) {Ed009's Note - I think that Dalglish has, more than any previous Liverpool manager for a long time, emphasised the importance of secrecy within transfers, which is an incredibly good thing. When a signing does happen I expect it to creep up on us.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 08:50:25
I don't want milner he said he wants to play in the middle not the wing and with Adam looking very likely and sissoko possible where would it leave him?

Also if we ''miss out'' on wickham we already have a better option in Morgan in IMO

Its all going quite. There nothing in any of the papers about liverpool. Looks like the lock down on melwood is working. I think we will have some news over the weekend. I kinda had the same thought as macca aswell that SSN said jones was ours then next min they got it wrong he wasn't having a medical at anfield but at man u. Not really bothered if we don't get hime though to be honest there is plenty of young good prospects that play as a striker.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 08:24:59
Readin through all the posts i cant believe all the negativity its not even july yet people our club was on the brink of dying this time last season an now we have good new owners who are willing and able to move us back up to where we belong amongst europes elite.And on top of that we have the king guiding our ship, we have some cracking youth prospects which we havent been able to say for about 10 yrs and a new stadium or refurb in the pipeline lets all just take a deep breath and relax just because we aren't paying over the odds for players does'nt mean we wont buy any.
i mean would we all be happy paying 20 million every time a club asked? we would be a laughing stock lets just let our manager and board do what they're paid for.

Morning All,

Assuming the rumours about Sammy leaving are true, I was thinking who we should replcae him with. 2 names that I wouldnt mind being in the frame are Gary Macca (I think the players and fans would love him to return). Also Pako Ayestaran - the players apparently loved him and he only left because he fell out with Rafa. Any other names spring to mind (with a true Liverpool sprirt)? I for one would not want the likes of Wilkins as has been mentioned on here...

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 07:59:26
Ok last time I looked at the country in which I live it was not communist china so will people stop telling people to only post positive comments.

Everybody is entitled to their opinion be it positive or negative, and they certainly dont deserve to be abused as a result of their opinion.

Also why should they not display their negative opinion? to keep the faith? Alot of people (myself included) have been keeping the faith for 20 years and so far nothing has happened. In addition to that every 3-5 years we start from scratch again and wait for a rebuilding process. I know that this ocasion is different because e have Kenny in charge but I can understand why some people are impatient they have been waiting for a long time.

So please no more abusing people that post negative remarks as they are just as entitled to it as the rest of us, and this is also a banter page not a positive comments only page.

Mr E

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 07:16:50
I'm a little disappointed that we missed out on connor wickham as I felt after watching some of his games last season that he had a lot of potential. I imagine though now that our striker to replace ngog will come from foreign shores as there are no more good young english strikers left. Can't imagine a better striker being available for 10m though.

I think ngog will prob stay now which is why we didn't go for wickham. I hope that carroll stays fit this season because I wasn't to impressed with him last season but hea still better david ngog.

Mr E

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 06:12:47
well well well this transfer window looks like it will be worst than the last three..
knocked back (by all accounts) by 5 of our own targets
so much so that Chelsea are trying to get Neymar.. no problem with his 40 mil clause
while WE are desprately trying to sign overrated, over payed rubbish English players and bidding over 25 million for some...
Had the king and his men lost the plot? why this domestic player bias? these players we're after have never exhibited the pass and move that we play at liverpool... for that we NEED flair players...
and so much for being the 'new hub of British talent'...can't even get Wickham despite us being LIVERPOOL with the King in charge no less...

Its just becoming all too familiar and painful to watch... and Are nesv only here to promote baseball? {Ed009's Note - I'm sorry but that is a simply ludicrous suggestion. Not one of the members of the board is trying to do anything other than move this club forward, regardless of what you think. You have been patient for less than a month and for that I congratulate it - its not like any deals happen in the next two months anyway, is it.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 04:46:42
Does anyone have any knowledge of Liverpool interest about Guarin of Porto and Nene of PSG? Guarin is a much better holding midfielder than Adam, while Nene can play winger, AM, and striker. The only similar player that would cost less than 25 million is Keisuke Honda.

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 02:25:39
I have got a strong feeling we will sign Lavezzi from Napoli in the range of around £19m+. Would be a great addition IMO and would fit into a 4-3-3 therfore the other player who has been touted to be our marquee signing wouldn't "mata" so much anymre. (pun intended)

29 Jun 2011 02:12:39
Warnock is a cheap option for a stop gap reliable left back. Can't understand why we're linked to Bridge when he's available.

People need to stop with the negativity
Downing - Not a world beater but a solution to a problem, we need width Hes quick, good feet and can put a ball in the danger area. Will be a good signing if we get him.
Adam - Wants to play for us and has huge passion for the game Great set-piece taker and killer passes. Hopefully a deal will br concluded soon
Henderson - Top, top youngster with a gerrard type engine, a few years with liverpool and he will be one of our best players. £16m a bargain

Looks like we have missed out on another player (Connor) that could have been great for us (hes better than Carrol) thanks again to the p*ssing around with a million or two pounds by the board, sounds like a familiar story. I am starting to have that same feeling that we do every start of the season and saying "Messed up in the transfer market Again and got bugger all...oh well maybe next season:". Yes we got till the end of August but you got to ask the question that are we going to miss out on the players that we actually need and signing players that potentially we dont yet or we should be signing after the important ones are done. Like me most Liverpool fans were hoping for most of our transfers to be done early especially with all the talk from players managers board members saying that we need players and we will sign players. Man U had totally blitzed the market already and they are Champions....whilst we overs spent with Henderson...someone most people will agree didnt even know we were going for and probably didnt need. We then missed out on JOnes who I think went to Man Utd for a higher wage packet and we missed out on a winger Young. He may not be the one we actually want but a position we need. I personally think we need two wingers/wide players a creative playmaker a left back a centre back and another top forward (because Carrol is useless overweight alocoholic- well almost), instead we have bought another midfielder??
Yes I know ED, s..... we have to be patient but like most we are getting annoyed that we dont seem to be getting any where and we are seing all the players we want not wanting to come.
I would like to see Baines on the left (pay anything for him he is English and quality). Turan and Boudabouz (Turan is a great winger that can play in various positions around the front and the same can be said for Boudabouz. This kid I knew little about but you can see he has talent like Ronaldo did). Mata would be awesome just behind the front two and Connor the young striker that is good enough to start but t learn his keep on thebench at first. We then need somone like Dann at the back. The spine can be English and the rest can be the silky skills of the world that the english cannot create at the moment. I understand why we are said to be getting rid of Meireles, a profit on someone his age and if we can get better players is clever ......providing we can get these players..?

KK is thinking of going in for hodgson old target in ken agreuo after he was seen on night out with stevie. Won't cost much but will be brought in for morale bost.

I think lucas is very bad and wouldnt be in the liverpool starting 11 but most people have him in their starting 11 and some people say he is terrible. Please click agree if you think he is bad and disagree if you think he is good.

hey hi guys I'm from southamerica and I love liverpool always wake up at 6 am un sundays-.- to watch the games even if im hang over I've just read this on marca.com (spanish website) aswell as goal.com(I know people hate goalbut its originally from marca) its quotes from cerezo the president of atlethico madrid he basically said "I've always said that players play where they want to play and I really dont know where Kun is gonna play next season, only his agents and he knows whats going on, but if he goes to Real madrid thats tough luck for us, if he goes to sevilla better and if he goes to liverpool then much better for us"

I dont know if I should read into words but is he basically saying that liverpool are among the most interested? please dont shoot me I know most of US are sick of the aguero rumours but I though this was worth mentioning

PS. sorry if my english sucks its my third lenguage

Everyone needs to calm down. All June people were complaining that we were only targeting Prem League players. Well the reason was that the international window wasn't open yet. We only could sign Prem League players. We have 6 or so spots we want to field so through June we were trying to fill 2-3 with players already in England. So far we've only gotten one, Henderson. With July 1 coming soon we will be linked more and more with foreign players because we will be able to sign them soon.

ed mate. i noticed the picture of adam playing in sightings and not 'dodgy sightings'
was he actually in liverpool?


mooman {Ed001's Note - he visits Liverpool regularly, please don't read anything into that, it is just like saying Carra goes to the Trafford Centre regularly, which he used to.}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 00:01:50
Dont you guys see it, the signing of henderson came out of no were and there werent many rumours leading up to his signing, proving that no one knows wats going on at lfc.

hi ed's
dont know if you agree or not but why are so many fans saying "another one has got away" ?
to be honest when i see a supposed target go to another team, i just remember what kenny had to say at the end of the season regarding transfers into the club: "our targets will have to be better than what we already have at the club" & to get us challenging for a top 4 position this is exactly what we will have to do, so im not worried in the slightest if we dont get wickham so what, i truly beleive we will start to see some movement when the window opens on the 1st of july, i also think we are keeping transfers quite, i remember in jan when sky asked kenny his targets for jan window & kenny replied " well im not going to tell you that am i" so please lets wait and see.

p.s. sorry for the long post.
lfcscott {Ed001's Note - I am with you, Kenny knows what he is doing and will get the players to suit the way he wants to play.}

King Kenny looking to extend the contract of 'Jesus Fernandez Saez' (Suso) beyond 2013. He has seen to have massive potential by those at Melwood. The young Spaniard is regarded as a future star amongst many fans and a future legend by John Aldridge. Known for incredible vision, passing, technique and eye for goal the Cadiz youngster is very much in the mould of Xavi, Iniesta and Alcantara of Barcelona. At 17.5 yrs old, Suso last year began training with Liverpool's first team on occasion and was driven to Melwood by none other than Kenny Dalglish himself. Weighing in at 10st 8lbs and height of 5ft 11in, Suso is best postioned behind the striker where his close control and technique keeps the ball glued to his feet and with his vision, timing and quick feet he can create many chances for himself and players both near and far ahead of him. The only concern is his young/slight build and his learning to track back for runners and defend, however last season he worked tirelessly on improving these areas. Suso is truly a unique talent on mersyside, whether he is ready or not for the odd substitute appearence in the league is another 'mata'? but the fans will surely be looking forward to watching young Suso link up with Gerrard and Suarez in the near future...

Hey ed's/everyone else

Has Sammy lee really left or is it a sky helicopter moment? If he has do we think SC will be new assistant manager?

Cheers
JJ {Ed001's Note - it was only a matter of time, now Fat Sam has the West Ham job he can bow out with dignity and walk straight into a new job there.}

 

 

 

 

28 Jun 2011 23:38:31
Sammy Lee has left Liverpool I hope there is nothing negative going on behind closed doors things are not looking good ed please say I'm over reacting? {Ed001's Note - of course you are, he was a useless coach that was always going to leave once the season was over. He was just allowed to see out the season as a thank you. Why would that mean anything negative is happening?}

 

 

 

 

29 Jun 2011 00:26:28
Has sammy lee left to go to West Ham ed? Just wondering, would really appreciate an answer if you have the time. Cheers.

think like this in each position you want experience and youth:
gk-2 exp 1 youth
rb-2 exp 1 youth
lb- 2 exp 1 youth
cb- 4 exp 1 youth
rm-1 exp 1 youth
lm- 1 exp 1 youth
cdm-2 exp 1 youth
cm/cam-3 exp 1 youth
st-4 exp 1 youth

are current set up to above without deadwood:
gk-reina/gulacsi 1 exp 1 youth
rb:johnson/kelly/flanagan 2 exp 1 youth
cb:agger/skrtel/carra/wilson/wisdom 3 exp 2 youth
lb:aurelio/robinson 1 exp 1 youth
rm:silva 1 youth
lm:sterling 1 youth
cdm:lucas/spearing/coady 2 exp 1 youth
cm/cam:gerrard/henderson/shelvey/suso 2 exp 2 yth
st:carroll/kuyt/suarez/ngoo 3 exp 1 youth

so going by that we need:
a exp gk
a exp cb
a exp lb
a exp rm
a exp cm adam
a exp lm downing
a exp st
preferably with prem experience.7 signings
ive filled in who is expected to sign.that will give us much needed quality in depth.do you agree ed.DORSET RED

Has sammy Lee left ? ... The chef kd7 YNWA JFT96 {Ed001's Note - yes.}

 

 

 

 

28 Jun 2011 23:52:06
Sammy Lee has left by the way. Expect Rushie to be appointed.
Lee

 

 

 

 

28 Jun 2011 23:51:43
Can anyone confirm that Sammy Lee asked to leave so he could take on the assistant manager's job at West Ham? He did have a previous working relationship with Allardyce before so could well make sense

 

 

 

 

28 Jun 2011 23:49:58
Signing Wayne Bridge will be an insult to all LFC supporters.

 

 

 

 

28 Jun 2011 23:49:48
Im relived that wickham is having a medical at Sunderland, we could buy a much better player with the money being quoted for him

 

 

 

 

28 Jun 2011 23:49:39
Ppl listen up will everyone chill out and relax.
Just want to clear some things up.
1- KK is no fool and would never ever do wrong by lfc.
2- are we really arsed bout adam?? Weve got enough cm.
3- the papers make the news they dnt tell it, look at the lennon story, not one mention on here then after sunday papers boom every ones got a lennon source.
4- even if we got no one else look at wat KK did with us in half a season we went from bottom 4 to near top 4.
5- forget all the other talented kids out there we have got some of our own n kenny knows it. Kelly, robinson and flanagan. Wud rafa had played them??
6- transfer window doesnt shut in 24 hrs and if players dnt come to us its thier loss not ours.
Keep the faith
In kenny we trust
YNWA

Sammy Lee left Liverpool thank fook for that never rated him as a coach anyway Steve Clarke is the man an am sure now his title will go assistant manager which I think he deserves ( suarezs left ball )

C H I L L O U T
It's not the last day of the sales, the bell hasn't rung for last orders
The only thing you can be sure of is KK, DC and the owners have a clear strategy, likely with many options and variations based on how things develop in the market. I don't think it's too much of a stretch to consider they may be playing the 'game' based on what they wan't to achieve this window.
Don't panic and don't believe it's hinged on Charlie, Connor, Juan or Diego - unless they want it to be so.
Please have faith and to some of you juniors - man up a little

Big G
