Fabuck it.
Liverpool fans hate him, Chelsea have other ideas, Liverpool need experience in Europe, Liverpool will have to sign big in anticipation of Champions league football, Ed 1 dislikes him, I still rate him (as does carra, but who cares? ) .
Sign Terry.
Keep Lucas.
We need them otherwise it's an embarrassment.
{Ed001's Note - an embarrassment is people wanting to sign a slow centre back whose legs have gone! People live so far in the past they fail to see how ridiculous their suggestions are. He is only good for Chelsea because of how he plays for them, put him in any other team and he will be half the player.}

Agree - we play a very different game and our CBs are put under a lot more pressure and one-on-one situations, often against pace. Klavan has shown how exposed a CB without pace is in our system, why anyone would think a slow, aging CB who doesn't exactly have a pillar of the community character should play for us is beyond me.
Lucas I can get, he's shown that he can still bring experience and a cool head to the side, and he is Liverpool through and through, yet even for him we need to set up to account for his pace as he would be badly exposed if trying to play a Hendo type role. At least it seems Klopp seems to be catering for that based on the last few games IMO, Lucas has rarely been exposed one-on-one and has been extremely solid as a result.

Sign Terry? Are you joking or being serious Davey becuase seriously he is very old, long past his best and could not hack playing in our team what=so-ever. On top of that he is a less than savoury character off the field. I mean he brings literally nothing good to the table - astonishingly awful suggestion.

That's why we have Klavan.

36 years old and would want a very healthy retirement package. This would be one of the worst, if not the worst transfer deal Liverpool ever make.
The guy is so far past his best and Mignolet will look even worse with Terry playing ahead of him at CB.
Luckily we have no interest in Terry :-)

Pretty sure Maldini is without a club too. Sign him up. He can cover both LB and CB ðŸ‘ðŸ»ðŸ˜‚.

Liverpool Fc should allow Lucas Leiva to be in control of his immediate future.
If he wants to stay, we should extend his contract for a reasonable length. If he wants to leave for more playing time or other non-football reasons the club should wish him well and allow him to leave with our blessing.
As for Terry, his experience and knowledge of the game domestically and in Europe is invaluable.
On the other hand, he is old and slow to play regularly in the premier league, he is a divisive character who can upset the dressing room and can undermine the manager. He would also command very high wages.
I do see Davey's point but we need to bear in mind that squad numbers are limited and the risks outweigh the potential benefits in my opinion.
If our scouts can not do better than John Terry then we need better scouts.

I would rather stick with Klavan than have Terry sitting on our bench. The thought of some having Terry in our squad is completely and utterly bizarre.
How on earth will he improve our defensive performances on the pitch?
Laughable to say the least.

We have Klavan.

Even if we make a friendly call to Terry, he would show up next day in full liverpool kit and try to photoshop himself in all the photos when the trophies are being won and collected. :-p #stayawayfromterry.
