Is there aný interest from Leeds for Danny ings?

Believable5 Unbelievable14

A loan there would be good for all as they've just lost wood (must not make an inappropriate joke) and they play some great football at the moment so Ings could regain fitness and form playing in a footballing side!

Arron Ramsey went to Cardiff for a season after his bad injury layoff. Did him the world of good. And for the record a midfielder who gets goals and can break a defence with his movement and passes ( just saying)

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - Leeds losing Wood is odd as it happened just after they signed Kun T....}

23 Aug 2017 14:22:51
Further to my Ramsey comment, the lad is 26 with vast prem sexperience, is a home player, is a box to box mid who has played either wing, once scored 16 in a season ( more than couts) and made the team of the tournament at the last euros. infact he missed the game Wales got knocked out and that was huge. Ed01 has said in the past he rates the lad and because he's not a foreign player no mention on here. No way arsene would ever sell anyway, he starts when fully fit for them.

Agree0 Disagree0

if Ings is being loaned out. Surely it has to be to a premiership side. Newcastle would be good, gets used to playing with fan pressure and a top manager with high expectations, especially if in relegation battle. This would prepare him mentally

Cant see what use loaning him to championship would gain, although very competitive league and tough, it may be a little too tough for someone with his injury record.

Agree0 Disagree1

23 Aug 2017 16:54:13
Wow Ed 001! Kun T! That's a bit close to the line 😂😂
It's a good job they didn't sign The Marseille right back Rod Fanni!

Agree0 Disagree0

RNred Ramsey is a good call as a quality player who makes things work. Not sure if Arsenal would sell or not buy considering all their troubles with other players leaving it is possible more might consider going. Hence I really hope the no to Barcelona for PC is about sending a message to potential signings that this isn't a feeder club for the top level.

Agree0 Disagree0

Any truth in Barce showing an interest in Naby Keita?

Believable4 Unbelievable16

{Ed002's Note - A number of sides have an interest in him. Barcelona enquired a while back, they may well enquire again.}

22 Aug 2017 18:01:57
Is he actively House Hunting in Barcelona at the moment though?

Agree38 Disagree5

22 Aug 2017 19:53:34
Yes I heard they have offered £1 million up front and the add ons if he breaks all records ever set in football. They set a deadline of six minutes or the offer is burnt in satans own firepit.

Agree47 Disagree2

22 Aug 2017 23:20:44
Yeah he's buying a nice villa in Barcelona, he's offering 20k euros up front, another 500k if his neighbours hot, 250k if he gets over 100 oranges off the orange tree in the back garden, 100k if the bath doesn't over flow for a year and finally 50k if he doesn't get any wasp or ants nests on the property for 3 years.
This may seem odd to you but that's how the property market works over in Barcelona 👍.

Hi eds any truth that we have agreed a deal to sign Kovacic from Real?

Believable3 Unbelievable7

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of Liverpool and Real Madrid agreeing such a deal, sorry.}

22 Aug 2017 01:06:16
Kovacic? Where did that one come from?

Agree12 Disagree3

22 Aug 2017 01:14:09
Hopefully we go for him next season when we replace Coutinho. Don't see how Real can guarantee him first team football with Casemiro, Modric, Isco and Kroos in the squad.

Agree2 Disagree6

22 Aug 2017 05:47:05
An alternative to Keita? We are looking at one Central midfielder! Aren't we?

Agree6 Disagree1

22 Aug 2017 07:31:25
Seems like regurgitated news from the 2015 window, before he left Inter to join Real Madrid.

Agree2 Disagree1

22 Aug 2017 08:27:24
Was it Harry who posted this rumour cos the Kovacic thingy is SOOOO 2015?

Agree3 Disagree3

22 Aug 2017 09:44:00
Someone said this to me today too.

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Aug 2017 10:05:03
Just a rumour that apparently he would be happy to join IF we sold Coutinho and needed a replacement.

No fee or agreement is in place and Juve have also apparently been quoted some crazy figure like £80m plus for Kovacic at some point this summer which means that Liverpool probably wouldn't bother anyway.

Just news for the sake of news but nothing in it.

Agree2 Disagree2

22 Aug 2017 13:23:09
Sod kovacievic we need defenders.

Agree6 Disagree2

22 Aug 2017 13:54:15
Kovacic is quality addition to the depleted midfield. What's with verbal agreement anyway? Just get him already, we have less than 8 days left. come on man.

Agree2 Disagree1

22 Aug 2017 14:43:55
Looks a really good player. Everyone knows we have a slightly thin squad but then people say we already have enough midfielders. We have a lot of midfielders, yes, but we play with five. LW LM CM RM RW. We need a CB yes and I still believe we will sign vvd. It's been on the cards all summer. Our new LB looks brilliant and I have to say, I did call that one. Kovacic would be a class addition. Forget about the word "replacement" coz Phil is going nowhere😏 we could do with a bit more creativity to feed our classy forward line. I don't think we will see a game where one of Mane, firmino or salah doesn't score.

Don't worry about the CB problem. That fact we haven't moved for someone other than VVD tells me we have all but got our man. Also, people scream that we need defenders. Let's not forget the last game we played we had a clean sheet and JM was immense against a pretty dangerous attacking team. Palace are lacking on a lot of areas, but a forward pair of Benteke and Saha is as good as anyone. Liverpool shut them out.

Kovacic is the sort of addition I've been waiting for all summer. I really hope it happens.

To end, I predict we are going to win the league. City aren't going to gell straight away. United have had a couple of decent results against relegation fodder but their weaknesses are going to be exposed when they come up against decent opposition and again, their team spirit will disappear. Chelsea will struggle to get in the top four and I think Arsenal and liverpool will be fighting it out for the title. We are the two most settled clubs. The others are full of new faces who aren't used to getting battered at West brom or stoke. Physically. Lacazette and Mane fighting it out for the golden boot. Spurs europa league qualification and then next year we move for Deli Ali.

Agree8 Disagree23

22 Aug 2017 15:34:16
You do realize Zaha didn't play due to injury?

are you seriously saying we are going to win the league based on beating Crystal palace 1-0.

give it 20 games before jumping to that conclusion! we drew 3-3 to watford last week, so I think a bit of patience is necessary.

Agree8 Disagree3

22 Aug 2017 16:37:24
Got to love the optimism. Lol.

Agree7 Disagree1

22 Aug 2017 18:49:01
Too right RNRED, we won the European cup with rafa beating teams 1 0. 3 points is 3 points. We are going to need lallana back coz we miss his intelligence. But I think our first team is better than anyone else's. We have a great manager. We bought three players, two of which were written off straigt away, Robertson and solanke have surprised us, they have been excellent so far. Our squad looks stronger already and I think we are going to win every game.

Agree5 Disagree8

22 Aug 2017 20:00:44
We can't win every game. we already drew 1. 😳.

Agree2 Disagree1

22 Aug 2017 20:18:55
Just saying i would love kovacic but juventus had a 75mill bid rejected or something like that so he wouldn't come cheap.

Agree1 Disagree1

22 Aug 2017 20:29:59
Actually it would b nice too get kovacievic plus a defender at the very least anythin less an we officially have no ambition to do well this season its obvious the squad needs depth, an how is it its only us fans who see that.

Agree0 Disagree3

23 Aug 2017 15:07:10
Yeah we drew against watford but I think it's pretty clear we should have won that game. We won all but one pre season game we won two out of three proper games.

Cannot believe all the thumbs down from liverpool fans when I say "we will win the league" carry on with the pessimism. Talk about "Supporting your club"

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Aug 2017 15:25:35
Love the pessimism guys. Do you think chelsea, city, spurs and united fans are not thinking "we are going to win the league" of course they are and I don't understand why reds fans aren't thinking the same? Looks like pc is staying, we bought three top players. And our squad was thin but brilliant last year. We have the best first eleven in my opinion.

Agree2 Disagree0

23 Aug 2017 20:05:58
Do you still think we can't win the league? Lol.

Agree0 Disagree0
