Hi guys thought you might like a small incite into some of the players at Liverpool? Spoke to Joe Gomez the other day and he said sakho and skrtel are very funny Milner is incredibly professional along with hendo that's kind of obvious to be fair, something he said that I found a bit odd was lallana was very short and serious character wise apparently he's very different on camera and just a very serious person off it! Maybe he just doesn't like the heat on tour! Lambert was talking about leaving and said he's fine and it's "just football" no hard feelings and he's still glad he lived the dream for a short while. Lastly there is running joke about Rodgers' hight and he laughs it off but when it comes to training he doesn't take any crap. also they all have a bedtime and are given sleeping pills it's meant to help with jet lag, I'll have more when he's back! Cheers.

Thanks, some snippets would be greatly appreciated! Tell Joe Gomez that his dedication in the friendlies was well appreciated from us fans, and he has support from as far as Bulgaria - I really hope he breaks into the team, and defends the honour of the jersey with pride!

Agree3 Disagree2

23 Jul 2015 21:59:56
I'll tell him mate, he's so happy to be at the club.

Agree2 Disagree3

23 Jul 2015 22:05:22
To be fair as much as I rate Lallana this a very important season for him, maybe explains the seriousness!

Agree4 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 22:22:49
Nice to get a bit of colour behind the scenes, thanks. Tell Joe we're all very excited he's here too and looking forward to seeing his career develop, looks a real talent and a great lad.

Agree1 Disagree1

23 Jul 2015 23:22:48
Cool zimbo, and he still could go on loan despite what Rodgers has said.

Agree2 Disagree2

23 Jul 2015 23:24:58
Erm. Yeah ok square tomato! I spoke to firmino today and he reads this page and loves stories like yours! Yeah shocked me too but hey!

Agree3 Disagree1

24 Jul 2015 00:30:35
was he on about skrtels defending when he said he's very funny i find skrtels defending comical at times too

Agree3 Disagree0

Leave it out giblet.

Square tomato was on here before Gomez signed saying he would. He's been good with the info we have had the luxury of him/her sharing.
Square Tomato = new Macca 😉

Agree2 Disagree1

24 Jul 2015 06:55:02
Cheers gazza I'm nowhere near macca i just Know Joe lol I think we'd all love to hear more about Firmino "hardyboyz" how's he getting on? What car does he drive? Does he know when his first game will be?

Agree1 Disagree1

24 Jul 2015 08:50:06
Your info is appreciated ST. Keep in touch. Tell Joe that we can't wait to see him at Anfield. Looks a great player, him and Ilori could be a great pairing imo.

Agree1 Disagree0

24 Jul 2015 09:14:38
Square Tomato is a long time poster, and I would gladly believe hom over your poor sarcasm hardyboyz.

Agree0 Disagree1

24 Jul 2015 09:39:41
Looking forward to seeing him in the new season. he's been class in pre season. didn't know much about him before he signed but been very impressed so far. Really hope he breaks into the team and stays there. Cheers for the info ST

Agree0 Disagree1

24 Jul 2015 09:48:25
The AL comment is a little surprising Square Tomato mate but very interesting as well. Feeling the pressure perhaps? Anyway, thanks for the insights and as others have already said, pass on our congrats to JG. he's an incredible talent who is incredibly assured and calm in his defensive duties already. Great to watch.

Agree0 Disagree1

24 Jul 2015 10:09:10
Cheers guys and AG always backs me up, I would never lie it's pointless, Joe is overwhelmed with how the fans have taken too him, and you're probably right Reynard regarding AL.

Agree0 Disagree1

24 Jul 2015 10:18:58
Saw the pics of firmino bebreke balo borini coutinho etc training, what's the odds Can was in defence with them lot there haha

Agree0 Disagree1

25 Jul 2015 17:14:08
Yeah why bother hardeyboyz I would also vouch for squaretomatoe as a long time reader of the site. Nice to hear this mate anymore would be greatly appreciated and I certainly echo the sentiments of the other posters that I believe he couldn't have started any better and as I said a few days ago I think him and lalanna should be two of the first names on the team sheet for stoke if preseason means anything!

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 20:29:46
Any word on Jerome Sinclair and are contract talks still ongoing?

Believable2 Unbelievable3

{Ed001's Note - it is likely he will leave, unless something drastic happens.}

24 Jul 2015 02:56:37
Massive disappointment, he clearly has loads of potential. Clearly knows he won't get a chance with us.

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 23:28:10
Is this on loan or permanent ed?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - permanent at the moment.}

23 Jul 2015 12:59:48
Spanish papers report we have stepped up interest in Pedro. Any truth to this?

Believable2 Unbelievable9

{Ed002's Note - I wouldn't hold your breath about Pedro arriving.}

23 Jul 2015 13:46:54
With turan inelligable until January, wouldn't it make sense for Barca to sell then?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - There have been discussions about selling now.}

23 Jul 2015 12:23:36
Lots of reports out there sayin Liverpool have made contact with the agent of Reus and are trying there hardest to put a deal toghether.
Not saying it's true just reporting what I've seen/heard.

Believable3 Unbelievable32

23 Jul 2015 13:14:35
Koptalk are reporting it so it must be true. *sigh*

Agree2 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 15:18:07
On the one hand we've just spent a small fortune on Tekkers, and the amount they are talking about for Reus is huge - would the club really pay that for a player? And if something sounds too good to be true, it usually is - or something.

But on the other hand, we've are overloaded in every other area of the squad, so why not sign another striker in addition to the 9 we already have - well, 4 if you discount Sturridge & Yesil (for now), Mario, Lambert, & Borini. 3 if Sinclair is not going to sign a new contract.

. just imagine a team with Reus & Benteke up front, backed up by Origi & Ings.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 17:24:48
Ummm would we call Reus a striker?

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 18:40:59
He can & does play up front, but yes, fair point.

Agree0 Disagree1

23 Jul 2015 18:46:53
All the more reason to sign him - we love a midfielder (you can never have enough) & he could be played out of position.

He'd be perfect for us!

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 22:19:08
Good save,Rob!

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Jul 2015 02:08:18
I'll believe it when I see him wearing a Liv jersey. Too good to be true, to be honest.

Agree0 Disagree0

"Digne's arrival would seal the exit of Jose Enrique, who is wanted by several Spanish clubs."

Firstly Eds, how high on the rubbishometer is this metro statement? I know you've said you're not aware of us being interested in Digne. But, more importantly, are there actually any clubs whatsoever interested in Enrique? Please say yes.

Thanks! :)

Believable0 Unbelievable4

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of any interest in Enrique at this time.}

23 Jul 2015 11:30:27
Maybe Instagram would offer him a new job?

Agree3 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 12:11:28
What's Enrique done to get no interest from anyone

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 14:25:17
probably only Spanish club that would want him would be Linekers

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 17:07:11
Whitey my guess would be: not play football. Most football clubs are interested in football players who interested in playing football! ;)

Agree0 Disagree0

Hi Eds

Do you know anything about Adriano Correia to Liverpool?

Believable1 Unbelievable0

{Ed002's Note - Adriano will not be moving to Liverpool.}

23 Jul 2015 09:21:44
Hi Eds
Any thoughts about the futures of Moreno, Illori and Markovic?
Personally I would to see them given a fair chance to impress next season.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - I do not expect us to sell any of them, we are asking a high price.}

23 Jul 2015 11:02:10
Maybe another loan for Ilori, Teixeira, and perhaps even Markovic?

Agree0 Disagree1

23 Jul 2015 12:03:32
Are we open to offers for all 3 Ed? Hope that's not the case

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of any intention to sell Moreno. Liverpool has over-priced players they have been trying to sell and need to make a decision on the way forward. Attempts to sell Ilori have failed due to the asking price and he has been told he will stay and be given a chance and game time - another centre back will now leave instead. Markovic was a mistake - he wasn't ready and did need that extra year playing regularly in a good league and in European competition - Liverpool paid way, way over the odds for him - he has been restless but it is hard to see a way out for him right now.}

23 Jul 2015 12:23:35
Ed002, could you tell us who this centre back who will leave is? I imagine it would be Sakho? Cheers.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Certainly Sakho is the most likely - he wants to leave and there is interest in him.}

23 Jul 2015 13:53:24
Thanks for the reply Ed. I agree on the Markovic signing alright. Never understood it. But as you say it was a case of a kid in a candy shop last Summer

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 14:11:09
I can't believe that Sakho may be sold but yet Skrtel was given a new contract.If the all powerful Ed's or anyone else can enlighten me than please do because I can't.
Barry inLouth

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - It is nothing to do with Skrtel, who is a right sided player. Sakho wants to move on. A replacement has already been added.}

23 Jul 2015 14:12:44
Thanks Ed. One more thing; who is interested in Sakho aside from Lazio?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - No one right now that I am aware of. There was discussion about an exchange with another club in January but that has all moved on.}

23 Jul 2015 15:52:39
I would be less disappointed to see Sakho go than I am to Skrtel staying.

I would rather see Lovren (right side?), Gomez (either side?), Illori (don't know?? - either?)& Wisdom(left side?) filling the CB positions - I think the general feeling is that they are quality, and justifiably due a chance. Skrtel cannot pair with anyone, and seems incapable of picking up his (or anyone else's) man when in the box, he should be a squad player now - in my view.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Lovren, Sakho and Gomez are left sided whilst Wisdom, Toure, Skrtel and Ilori are right sided. Players should be used to their strengths. And LFC used 3 CBs much of last season.}

23 Jul 2015 17:17:32
In fairness ed. for some reason Liverpool played 2 centre backs and a midfielder in a back 3 last season.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 17:43:22
Any idea why Sakho wants to move on ed?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - He hjas been far from first choice. Time to move on.}

23 Jul 2015 09:01:02
just wondering whether to expect any more arrivals after benteke i'm hearing digne picking up pace but not sure

Believable1 Unbelievable5

23 Jul 2015 09:38:32
Ive heard that's pretty much it now for coming in, just outs to come. But you never know

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 09:52:53
Haven't you heard , Marco Reus is on the way in. lol.

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Jul 2015 10:38:19
The Digne rumour was on the Daily Star linking sportsmole as the source. Then sportsmole put a link to the daily star article to give their article credibility. I doubt it's anything other than rumour mongering.
