Hi Eds,

Any January interest in Benteke or is there zero chance of him leaving so soon?

I am pretty confident Klopp will be wanting to cash in on him but obviously will want to get as much as possible for him. Would Chelsea have any interest in him or did they ever?

{Ed002's Note - Chelsea has never had any interest in Benteke and Liverpool are not looking to sell him.}

Doesn't take long for people to give up on a player huh.

Never wanted him. We missed big time not going for Bacca.

I hate to judge a player this quickly, but the more I see of Benteke, the less convinced I am becoming on whether he can make it work at Liverpool.

Agree5 Disagree2

I wanted Bacca too but I'm in no hurry to give up on Benteke either. Chill out and support the boy, Davey.

I think it's one thing to have faith, blind faith is something else. Of course we all want him to perform, that would be the best thing for everyone, but whilst there have been some great touches he is yet to convince. It's not a matter of condemning the lad to the bin, but it was a bit of a gamble bringing him in and it's yet to show any sign of being a successful move - for him or the club. It happens. Hopefully he can turn it around, or else he will just have been another one of Rodgers' square pegs for a round hole.

Seeing links of Dries Mertens. Is this true?

At 29 it would be a poor signing in any case.

Agree2 Disagree5

Ed just a quick Q the boy
Yannick Bolasie @ Palace we ever had any interest in him he looks a player Klippety could nurture into something special.

Believable2 Unbelievable9

{Ed001's Note - nope.}

Was saying for sometime this kid got something. There are few players liverpool should at least keep tab on - bolaise, ayoze perez, mahrez, shaqiri.

Agree1 Disagree13

13 Dec 2015 08:07:13
Just mahrez out of that lot. Yet i think his stock has risen that well that only a hand full of clubs could afford him now in my opinion.

Agree11 Disagree2

13 Dec 2015 08:33:05
MOTD fever I think, Bolaise is ok on his day but he as far too many off days, he also tries to beat the same man time and time again and many attacks break down because he doesn't release the ball.

Agree4 Disagree2

13 Dec 2015 10:18:26
Mighty reds in fairness we are starting to see a lot more consistency from the lad and if he keeps progressing the way he has over the course of this calender year I think he will be sold for massive money to a top side in the summer or next January.

Agree1 Disagree4

{Ed001's Note - not sure he has shown any more consistency, other than that he overruns the ball consistently.}

13 Dec 2015 10:29:17
Those MOTD comments on bolaise over done, he's been repeating those powerful runs down the flanks almost every match. So please shut it on MOTD.

Agree0 Disagree6

{Ed001's Note - and losing it doing so. It IS MOTD fever, the guy only looks good in highlights, full matches and he is more of a hindrance than a help over the course of 90 minutes.}

13 Dec 2015 10:30:37
With Liverpool fans, Bolasie is the new Diame. Plays well against us, everyone clamours for his signature, but in reality overall he's really not good enough. A decent player in his own right, yes, but not a player who'll help us achieve what we want to achieve.

Agree5 Disagree3

13 Dec 2015 11:54:43
I rather we go for a Mahrez or a Mane.

Agree6 Disagree3

13 Dec 2015 12:10:47
Ah ed he's certainly progressed at first he had no end product and only tricks which came off once every 4 or 5 weeks. his delivery this seen has been dramatically bettered and he is impacting games on a more regular basis.
Plus it's as much pardews do what you like attitude with him that sees him probably dribble and lose the ball so much. In a better team with good tactical coaching I still think he'll soon be in a top team. Don't think it will be or should be Liverpool mind you but that raw ability to beat a man the way he does is in my opinion a rare talent.

Agree1 Disagree1

{Ed001's Note - sorry but it is simply not true. It is Pardew's tactics and team that have allowed him to have more impact, simply because of the space he is now getting. Springing from deep against an opponent that have been drawn in, his work should impact every attack.

He is simply not that good, unlike Mahrez or Mane, who are far higher quality mentally. He has pace, strength and the skill on the ball to beat players, but he has absolutely no clue how to use it.}

13 Dec 2015 13:52:46
I'd move on Allen for Mane in a heartbeat. mane would be able to fit with the high press, fit in well with the creativity of Cout/Firmino/Llalana but also be able to creat width and dangerous positions for Benteke to capitalise on.

He's a few steps ahead of anyone else we have like him including Ibe/Markovic.

Agree1 Disagree2

13 Dec 2015 15:21:01
Heard it was his first assist since March. He doesn't score much either. So how effective is he? Those stats are worse than when downing played for us and he got destroyed for being an attacking player that didn't score or assist ( though his record before he joined us was pretty good on both fronts)

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Dec 2015 15:37:22
Allen for mane? They don't even play the same position.

Agree3 Disagree1

14 Dec 2015 00:54:55
Bolasie would be a disaster for us. The only reason he's good for palace is that he has so much space. Mane or mahrez are the best wingers in the pl imo.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Dec 2015 12:56:54
I agree with the MOTD comments and I have commented on Bolasie in the past. I still think I am correct in what I said before - his shooting is not good enough.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Dec 2015 03:15:30
Bolasie isn't not in the same class as Mahrez and Mane. He's not even good enuff to shine their boots, That's how poor he is. He's big, strong and fast. That's it. He has no skill, no game intelligence, no technical ability nor ability to time and check his runs. He seems to make it up as he goes along all the time, all things that will hinder him from getting to the next level. Don't hear Bayern nor Utd coming in for Bolasie like they are doing for Mane.

Agree0 Disagree0
