A question or two for the eds please:
It has been mentioned by yourselves with regards to the owners in their poor dealings with buying players and the poor way we deal with our youth set up with poor loan deals ect, have they ever looked at other models (Chelsea or Spurs for example)? and not tried to completely copy it but replicate some of the better practices. For example how they seem to get full returns on players sales . We are bloody hopeless at it.
Have we anyone overseeing our operating practices or scouts so were not wasting money?, seems we waste a fortune (Benteke) under Bodgers for example.
We used to be brilliant at bringing rough diamonds in and making them superstars.
I get a little frustrated that more of our under 21s are not being integrated into the first team, Tex, Rossiter, Ward and Ojo and maybe more would in my opinion do well with LFCs first team.
I regally read similar posts on here with the same concerns It would save the club a fortune meaning we have a better chance in keeping our better players and thus not wasting money on so many foreign players.
How much input would Klopp have on our set up?
I do have a slight nagging doubt as Klipperty wants to do well would bring in players no better than what we already have rather than develop our existing young players again wasting valuable funds or is more a case of doing both better? .
{Ed002's Note - (a) I have never said anything about "the owners" having made any poor deals with transfers or the like. I think you have significantly misunderstood something. Certainly the owners do not get involved with transfers nor the day-to-day running of the club. They do have one representative based in the UK running the business. (b) Liverpool has done well with some sales - Suarez and Sterling come to mind - hardly "hopeless". (c) Liverpool has a transfer committee overseeing transfers. (d) If you included the likes of "Tex" (whatever that is), Rossiter, Ward and Ojo in the first team squad only then they would only get game time on a very rare basis - Ward, for example, is learning a lot whilst on loan. If you wish to use players like that week-on-week then you have to accept the Liverpool will struggle at the highest level. (e) I don't know what you mean by "set up" but Klopp can pick and choose the team that plays each week form the players available; he is a member of the transfer committee so can influence that; he can visit the players whilst being treated from the impact of his "kopflose huhn" style. (f) I would be fearful if the club did indeed start to bring in players who are not better than the existing group.}

The article in the Daily Fail is interesting, kinda states what the eds had been saying about Bodgers, a complete fraud.
Yes I still don't like Ward and yes I still think Sterling was wrong but it backs up lot about Bodgers being a fraud.
Shame FSG didn't check this site out, the Eds are NEVER wrong, Would of saved LFC a whole load of negative press, a probably have Sterling still.
1.) 20 Oct 2015 13:40:52
The Eds are sometimes wrong and I am sure they are happy to admit this! Much of footy is opinion and they have a better education in football matters than me and many times will often be right, but we all make mistakes. for example I remember one ed saying Mignolet was a better keeper than Begovic and I do not think that was spot on at all! Do you
that said thanks for all their hard work.
{Ed001's Note - that certainly wasn't me!}
2.) 20 Oct 2015 14:26:33
In fairness Begovic has barely had a good good for about 18 months now!

Evening folks
I would imagine on here the name G Neville would have everyone wanting him to f off but I think occasionally the penis talks sense, honestly. Just read an article in the online Telegraph were he basically says its now time Liverpool fans to stop fawning over JK and realise we ARE Liverpool FC, he JK, should be honoured to be our manager. IMO is probably profoundly proud and humbled to be wanted as manager of one of the giants of world football and a true football religion and that is why he will immerse himself in all things LFC not because the media have been falling over themselves taking pictures of him stroking a dog or having a fag with freinds and family at a L/Pool bar. What does everyone think?.
1.) 16 Oct 2015 18:41:10
I think it's only natural that Liverpool fans are overly delighted with the Klopp'steria that has swept through the Liverpool fandom. When we look at the managers that have been in charge during FSG's tenure as our owners, Dalglish was the only manager that has been truly deserving, even with his long step away from the game his knowledge of our club is rivaled like no other and has pedigree of being a winner, again even if a long time had passed since his first stint as the Liverpool manager, but at least he got us to finals and a taste of silverware during his brief spell back in the LFC hot seat. Now FSG have gone out and seemingly got one of the current top managers within European football. I think it's quite similar to when Liverpool hired Benitez, we believed we were getting a winner, with a track record as opposed to Rodgers or even Hodgson who had not really won anything worthy of being appointed LFC manager, at least to satisfy a majority of fans expectations. I think it's worth a mention that Klopp and Benitez are similar in terms of breaking their national leagues strong holds, Klopp with Dortmund overcoming the force of Bayern Munich and Benitez storming Barcelona and Real Madrid with Valencia. Both having shown great awareness of European football competition as well, with Klopp getting to the Champions League final and Benitez winning the then UEFA Cup. So, i understand the Klopp wave of hope that has seemingly washed away the cobwebs of last season, Klopp is one of the managers of the moment and has reportedly been in high demand for quite some time even with a difficult campaign with Dortmund last season.

You were right with your first assumption. Neville can foxtrot oscar.

Apologies if think this has been asked before, just catching up with all news LFC, what is the problem with doggy 'arrys ', constant whines about LFC?,
maybe because he is part of the Fergie squad and can maybe see us potentially rising as a credible force,
I used to like him apart from his dodgy stuff, even to the extent of wishing as LFC mgr but not now, sounds like a whiny old man with naff all to do.
{Ed001's Note - I have no idea. Never had any time for the guy personally. He has always been a dodgy *censored* and I have no interest in what he rabbits on about in an attempt to self-publicise and get some attention. Nothing but a failed manager who has helped himself to other people's hard earned cash through backhanders. He should stick to opening fake bank accounts in pets' names and keep his whiny mouth shut.}

Cant believe Jamie came from him, totally different, one is class one is a knob
2.) 14 Oct 2015 14:48:42
Harry is an A class Kn**Head. simple as that really. he has way too much time on his hands now he can't get a job and has ran out of lives on candy crush so he thinks he will just wind us up because we turned him away a few years back about the job.
3.) 14 Oct 2015 15:17:53
Fergie's squad?! Haha you guys really crack me up.
4.) 14 Oct 2015 16:03:52
Ahoy – all things Redknapp should be kept well away from Anfield.
Harry almost bankrupt Portsmouth, Spurs, & West Ham took a huge brown envelope of cash and put it in a bank account named after his dog !!!!
Jamie was a permanent fixture in our wilderness years, and needlessly ran to the nearest Centre half to collect the ball – bewildering
He took off his shirt and minced across the beach in a TV travel company advert and within 3 months Thomas Cook were almost bankrupt (something he inherited from his father)
He also had zero awareness on the pitch – he could have hoofed his free kick v Blackburn into the Anfield Road stands instead of the top corner to still give Man U a sniff of the title.
5.) 14 Oct 2015 16:37:58
Brilliant post eds. Couldn't agree more. He has become a bitter old man. perhaps he thought he had a shot at the job after brendan. I hate listening to him. BT sports is horrible to watch. Owen and Harry drive me crazy. The mute button is well used put it that way. On another note chaps, do you think we will beat spurs?
6.) 14 Oct 2015 17:15:13
Harry has a lot of time for our club. As a young lad, Jamie was taken in by a scouse family and grew with the club.
Why would he have a different attitude?
Maybe he's a realist with tons of experience, and not blinkered like the rest of us.
7.) 14 Oct 2015 17:25:20
Realist, have you heard the nonsense he was talking about the transfer committee and how it got rodgers the sack. No my friend he is clueless when it comes to lfc and proves it many times over with his inane soundbites.
Realist indeed, the thieving son of a.
8.) 14 Oct 2015 18:46:33
I personally rate him as a manager and in the past liked him. over the last few years since investigations etc my opinion of him changes a lot, and now yeah he is bugging me which back I would never have thought possible. He is clearly bitter
9.) 14 Oct 2015 19:05:02
I've no idea about the truth of Harry's alleged financial misdemeanours, but to be fair he managed Spurs to two 4th place finishes, which is more than his successors have managed (or we've managed, for that matter)- so surely he can't be a complete idiot?
I think his recent comments were not anti-LFC as such, but more about defending a fellow manager- which is something a lot of managers tend to do.
And I do wish our fans had a bit more class than to throw casual insults at ex players like Jamie. He was no superstar, but he always tried hard and he seems a decent lad- and he still has a soft spot for LFC, as you can tell from his punditry comments.
In fact, there was a TV series a few years ago about the ten best views in England (or something of the sort), and Jamie's choice was not his home town, or a natural landscape- he chose the skyline and the view of the Liverpool waterfront in the evening, as you approach across the river from Birkenhead on the ferry, as his best view in England- so he must have a soft spot for the city as well as for the club, and its a shame to see our fans slagging him off without a second thought.
And no, my real name is not Jamie Redknapp.

Baring in mind how poor a keeper Mignolet is ( I could do better at my tender age of 49)and that we have NOT sacked the GK coach, meaning we could still have the same problems at the back under JK or do you think JKs staff once they have assessed our GKs, can they affect Mignolet in how he plays?
, in positioning or simply clear the ball and hopefully not cost us.
Either that, as Eds001 said bring Ward back and give him a crack or Bogdan?.
{Ed001's Note - I am sure they can get more out of Migs, simply by playing to his strengths, but it is clear we need to change the coaching and keeper in the long term.}
1.) 14 Oct 2015 14:50:39
I've lost count of times we hear about how crap this goalkeeper coach is, why does he keep slipping through the net ed? Love to know what he hold over the club to avoid the chop every time.
{Ed001's Note - I really do not know. He is a nice guy but that should not be enough.}
2.) 14 Oct 2015 17:15:57
Have Liverpool ever appointed a decent keeper coach?
3.) 14 Oct 2015 17:45:57
@ Davey:
Paco Herrera
Xavi Valero
But yeah, I get your point. We had Joe Corrigan for a long time, and he didn't have the greatest rep either.
Who was Woy's goalkeeping coach? Was it Mike Kelly, or was that when Achterberg came in?
4.) 14 Oct 2015 17:25:50
Yes valero.
5.) 14 Oct 2015 19:11:46
Joe Corrigan hah remember when we was kids one of the lads ( from Manchester) city fan we used to wind him up saying Joe had tried to end it all by diving in front of a bus but the bus went underneath him 😎 good days

McCallister is considering another role at the club,according to sky, anyone have an idea what it is?
