reading that we want to take kondogbia from inter milan on loan in january. anything to it, or just rubbish journalism?

If reports are to be believed, there seems to be trouble brewing at Dortmund, with talk of a rift between Tuchel and their head scout.
Let's hope that any unrest at the club, could help us in our pursuit of Pulisic.

Agree12 Disagree7

Let's hope we stand by the team thatSiS performing so well going forward. We don't need Kondogbia or Pulisic. With Kondogbia we already have Grujic and Stewart who need minutes and are progressing well, even Can.
With Pulisic take your pick of players who need more minutes. Sturridge, Ings and Origi could all come in and allow Firmino to drop back.
The team is performing well, why create any discord by bringing in more youngsters or players who won't get minutes.

Anfield

Kondogbia is nothing like Grujic. He is a solid holding player, While Pulisic is an exciting young winger again not similar to any of Sturridge, Ings and Origi ( All strikers )
If you need a winger you need to play a winger and not a striker altering the formation and playing them out of their position. Sturbridge currently is suffering from this change.

Agree10 Disagree5

Is Pulisic a better option than Ojo?

I don't think so, we have Ojo if we want a young fast exciting winger. We also have Ryan Kent (on loan) and Harry Wilson.

We need to stop stockpiling players! It is ridiculous! The same people wanting to sign x, y, z from a, b, c then moan like crazy if a young player leaves on a free because they can't get a game.

Andy is correct. If anything we need to trim the squad a bit more rather than further stockpiling.

Agree26 Disagree2

I saw Kondogbia live when he was at Seville and he looked fantastic that game, technique and strength were excellent for a young lad. But something must be wrong as he went to Monaco and then Inter within 2-3 years. If JK could get the best out of him, then what a player but what are his problems?

I did not mean to buy players. I just showed the diffefence in the players mentioned.
On another note, kent and Wilson are no where near to Pulisic. You haven't see him play mate. He is a really good player.

Agree9 Disagree2

06 Oct 2016 13:14:24
As much as I'd like to have a young, exciting American at the club, I don't know where he'd find the minutes right now. I could see one of Coric or Pulisic coming in next season if we are in the Champions League, but definitely not mid-season.

Agree3 Disagree1

06 Oct 2016 15:56:09
Maybe move coutinho into cm maybe add more squad players who can play the high press football.

Agree0 Disagree4

06 Oct 2016 16:26:59
The only way I see a Kondogbia loan or purchase happening is if it has already been decided that Lucas is moving on this January, Stewart is seen only as a backup, and Klopp has decided that he wants more steel in midfield than Wijnaldum and Lallana are providing now. Probably just lazy journalism.

Agree2 Disagree1

06 Oct 2016 16:41:15
Mentioned this to my mate who's a die hard Inter fan. He said he hadn't heard anything about the loan, but Medel is keep Kondogbia out of the side currently. 'needs a rocket up his ar*e' were his words.

Not that this means he's coming but if he's not getting game time, he may well be available.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Medel is not keeping him out of the team - Kondogbia's dreadful attitude is. Inter will be open to selling at around €30-€35M.}

06 Oct 2016 19:12:41
Avoid players with bad attitude s at all cost 11 milners over 11 Balotellis every time.

Agree16 Disagree0

06 Oct 2016 23:40:25
All the great successful manager have always had a constant revolution policy.

It keeps the existing players looking over their shoulders at every transfer window so that no matter how well you've done till now is ok but its the managers job to improve the squad one way or the other.

Agree2 Disagree1

07 Oct 2016 01:21:56
I liked Kongdogbia and thought we should have gone for him a couple of Seasons ago when Gerard left, and I can see how having a young potentially world class holding midfielder could be good for the future, but right now I'd rather develop Can and Grujic there, particularly if he has apparent attitude problems. As for Pulisic, again I can see mane is our only true winger, but unless Coutinho drops back into midfield we are well enough stocked and I really want to see Ojo get a shot.

Agree4 Disagree1

07 Oct 2016 02:25:20
He's not needed/ wanted.

Agree3 Disagree0

07 Oct 2016 10:06:43
As Ron has mentioned, we have Ojo, fantastic young talent in my opinion, he can make it this lad. The 2 main players I want to see more of is Ings and Ojo.

Agree6 Disagree0

07 Oct 2016 22:14:56
Coutinho has a goal/ assist every 70 min he plays, dropping him down to cm would be a huge waste imo.

Agree6 Disagree1

08 Oct 2016 01:38:37
Stoupid - i do agree with you there mate.

Agree2 Disagree0

08 Oct 2016 16:15:36
I will buy Tuchel and stick him in as Liverpool reserve coach.

Agree1 Disagree3

08 Oct 2016 19:40:39
Sweet, clearly you've never seen Kondogbia play because if you did, you would know that Kondogbia is NOT a DM. Even at Inter, he's never played there as Medel and Felipe Melo play in defensive midfield. Besides, we don't need him nor Pelusic.

Agree1 Disagree0

true Hamilton Red.

10 Oct 2016 02:36:53
We're not deep enough in the true wing position. Believe Ojo should be given a chance, but would love to see Pulisic brought in. If we qualify for Europe next year, between, Europe, domestic cups, and the EPL, there will be plenty of chances for minutes.

Morning eds

Not sure if you no mate but its been said we picked up a few knocks with Clyne Lallana and Lovren not going on international duty. Do you have an idea of the extent of there injuries please? I've read that Lovren is probably the worse injured out the lot. Surely they have long enough in the time between now and the 17th to get fit?

Believable2 Unbelievable8

{Ed001's Note - Lallana was taken off with a groin strain, Lovren also picked one up and Clyne has a knee problem. I don't know the severity of the injuries and it is that which will tell us how long they are out for. The club usually give out very informative details of injuries nowadays, I just haven't seen one since the last match yet. Normally it is in the run up to the weekend's matches, not sure what they do over the international breaks as I have never looked until a game is nearing.}

05 Oct 2016 07:58:22
Ok mate cheers for that. I really hope there fit for the Utd game. Especially Lovren as Utd are only going to play one way with loads of balls into our box.

Agree2 Disagree5

{Ed001's Note - fingers crossed.}

05 Oct 2016 08:41:19
Its been years since Utd played with loads of balls.

Agree19 Disagree5

05 Oct 2016 09:19:04
Lol Annie, about right.

Agree6 Disagree6

05 Oct 2016 09:24:25
Didn't mean to post so early was also going to say, I also hope they're fully fit for the game, especially Clyne and Lovren, our defense has improved i'd say but it's the weakest link in the team still at the moment. I'd expect if Clyne was out Milner will be put on the right with Moreno back in, this worries me.
Milner no doubt would be fine on the right, but Moreno, I know Klopp said the other week he's been doing well in training but I'll be bricking it all game if he's on. It won't be good for my ticker lol. To be fair if Lovren is out, I trust Klaven to have a good game. but ideally we want Lovren back of course.

Agree5 Disagree6

05 Oct 2016 11:20:42
We could always bring sakho back for utd game, he does well in the big occasions.

Agree9 Disagree11

05 Oct 2016 14:14:44
I don't agree, he's nothing but trouble, I'd rather have klaven, sakhos proved he's an idiot, personally I'd never have him in the side again. Just my opinion whether i'm right or wrong. Sooner he's gone the better and I don't expect klopp to play him. Of course I may be wrong.

Agree10 Disagree11

05 Oct 2016 16:57:04
Hey may have been an idiot but he's a good player and I wouldn't mind klopp trying to build his character one more time. If he acts up again then so be it but I could see klopp not giving up on a clearly misguided individual. He's not balo bad.

Agree6 Disagree9

05 Oct 2016 22:53:24
I don't know I see Klopp as quite the opposite, really nice guy but strict, you mess with him once you've had it. he has to set an example, your either on his good side or your not, and if you want to act the fool it's game over. (i don't know, it's just how i see it)

Sakho buggered about in the states and got sent home, since has he played a game? and then with his stupid comments the other week. he doesn't exactly help himself, if he got his head down and kept his mouth shut maybe he'd be given a chance but it seems impossible for him.

Ungratefull if you ask me, we stood by him with all that hassle with the stuff he was on and he goes and ruins his support by acting like an idiot. Personally with his attitude I wouldn't trust him playing for us. I don't think he can do any better then Klaven. I see it as one of them typical situations, we give him a chance against utd and he messes it up for us. no thank you. Klaven on the other hand will want to prove a point and will want to show more about who he is and what he can do.

Just my opinion, who knows, Klopp may go and pick him.

Agree4 Disagree2

06 Oct 2016 23:48:24
looking on the Physio Room website it states Lovren and Clyne are back on the 17th Oct, Gomez on 29th Oct and both Lallana and Ojo unknown (always assumed that means that the extend of the injury hasn't been confrimed yet)

Agree0 Disagree0

07 Oct 2016 13:46:26
Fails drug test, late for flight delaying the entire squad on a plane, misses treatment sessions on tour, sent home, rants on Snapchat about the club at 3am on a Saturday matchday which probably means there was booze involved. And there are people on here still saying he should be given another chance after already been given several.
Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.

Agree5 Disagree0

07 Oct 2016 23:55:39
Agreed First!

And no game time this season and completely over-rated by most on this site.

No chance he will be played unless half the team go down injured or sick!

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Oct 2016 01:43:23
Beddoerocks and Fitzy - Exactly my point.

Agree1 Disagree0

05 Oct 2016 05:39:16
Hi Eds, tell me if i'm being premature (you wouldn't be the first) but do you know if Liverpool have there eyes on any players at the moment? i feel like we have a decent squad for once but maybe there's ongoing interest in some young players or future potential?

Believable1 Unbelievable6

{Ed001's Note - they are always looking at players, it is far too soon to really be sure which are just being checked out to see if they are any good and which are being tracked ahead of a signing.}

05 Oct 2016 08:40:38
Thought as much. Thanks anyway Ed.

Agree1 Disagree4

{Ed001's Note - welcome mate.}

06 Oct 2016 07:24:33
thanks ed.
