So with the rumours of Gerrard and Pepe leaving, I'm gonna make a wishlist of what would happen if they were to leave.

Outs:
Reina - 25m
Gerrard - 25m
Jova - 5m
Soto - free
Degen - free
El Zhar - free
Skrtel - 6m
N'Gog - 8m
Maxi - 5m
Poulsen - 2m
Konckesky - 3m
Aquilani - 10m
Insua - 3m
Total: 92m

In:
M'Vila - 13m
Adam - 8m
Sakho - 10m
Gervinho - 10m
Baines - 13m
Marveaux - free
Lloris - 14m
Martinez - 14m
Benzema - 20m
Wickham - 8m
Total:110m

Net Spent = 18m

- - - - - - - - - -Wickham- - - - - - - - - - -

with Kuyt, Spearing, Pacheco, Aurelio and Cole also in the mix.

Wisdom, Sokolik, Flanagan and Coady will make the step up to full time reserve team players and have a significant amount of their training at Melwood.

Carra will be captain with Meireles, Agger and Adam (in that order) wearing the armband in his absence.

I have to admit, it would be difficult without two vital members of our first team, but it will help us later on as we can prepare for the future, as you can see with a squad that we could field in 5 years time. .

Biggest rumour of all! !

Liverpool will bid 30 mil for Everton duo Leighton Baines and Jack Rodwell in the summer. The deal could also involve 2 of Liverpool's fringe players: Nathan Eccelton and Jay Spearing swapping sides. This is from a very reliable source in Merseyside.

Also David Motes quiting Everton and Owen Coyle taking over.

Just wait and see how things unfold end of the season.

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 20:28:04
My mate in work who's from Hungary is convinced balazs dzsudzsak is coming to Liverpool for around 15 mill. Apparently its in all the papers in Hungary. And I've never played on footy manager in me life.

Maxi, jovanivic, poulson, konchesky, sotirios, skrtel, ngog and aurelio maybe to go in the summer!

Young, Hazard or N'zogbia for winger!

Adam for midfield

Enrique or another centre back for defence!

Is it true gerrard is leaving

Liverpool will look to sign Shay Given should they loose Reina - caught offside.

Very sensible option, Given will cost 8 million and was a star perfomer for Newcastle before he bacame a bench warmer for Mancity.

hope not he's old

Eds, heard from a source of a very source who tells him that Marveaux has signed a pre contract agreement this afternoon.

I don't post many rumours unless they appear to be reliable.

A couple of days ago I posted that should lfc sign a central mid that we would see a big player leave. Gerrard was the player in question.


I can second this information

I think if we could get around £20 mil mark for him, then maybe it is time to cash in.

ed thoughts on those ins?

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 13:41:17
I don't know why people want new strikers. we've already gotten ourselves carrol and suarez. kuyt should be only used now as a back up striker with n gog back up for him

The more important areas are wingers . one midfielder and one good left back. so that's atleast four players there 2 wingers one cm and one left back. thoughts ed?

True Red {Ed001's Note - I think we need a back up striker more than a left back, Ngog is not good enough, or even close to being good enough, to even cover.}

yes we have to get a young one, a striker that is keen to play but that can wait and fight for a pace in the starting 11.or just Hoarau.

43m in your dreams! Here are the real figures.

Degen free
El Zhar free
Maxi 1 - 1.5m
Cole 5m (unfortunately to Cole to leave and remove him from our wage bill)
Poulsen 1m (that may be a little optimistic)
Aquilani (any money received will be owed by us to Roma)
Insua 2 - 3m ( You may have one right)
Jovanovic free (to get him off the wage bill).
Konchesky 1 - 1.5m
Spearing (valuation about right but will probably stay as squad player)
Jones 500K
Irwin free
Eccleston 500k (right again!)
Amoo 500k (can't argue)
Ngog 3m
Kyrgiakos 1m (but will probably stay)
Aurelio free (but will stay and see out his two year deal from the treatment table)
Ince free (out of contract)

This would give us a grand total of about 12 - 13 mill out of which we would have to give Cole about 5 mill to get shut of him. Jova might want a payout as well so your 43m coming in is about 35 mill too much!

Harry J {Ed002's Note - The money owed to Roma for Aquilani is 5M euro. There is little point in second guessing these figures as to be accurate it would also be necessary to take account of fees paid to agents etc.}

harry no one knows how much we will get for those players mine was just a guess but all of those are not liverpool standard and not fit to wear the shirt.12-13m are you joking we accepted a 6m bid for jovanovic so he won't go for free.poulsen is valued at round 3m not 1m.so realistically my friend after payments like you said and agents fees etc we will get at least 25m plus for those players.what you think ed 25m plus after everything taken in to consideration.DORSET RED

{Ed0002's Note: It is impossible to say. You would need to know what Jovanovic's and Cole's contract provisions are, as there could be considerable one off payments to take account of. You also need to consider that these players and any players coming in have wages and other costs associated with them (such as not insignificant insurance costs). All of this adds up to a much larger picture where insufficient detail exists for any sensible conclusions to be drawn. Some of the first team squad and some of the younger players will naturally leave. It would be surprising to see Liverpool, who already have a small senior squad, let 18 players go in the summer.}

MUFC, the FA, the BBC, SKY and the media are ALL to blame for this Ferguson fiasco.
He IS bigger than the game becuase they ALL allow him to do what he wants.


my brother has alot to do with sky due to his connections with boxing, he spent the haye fight ringside with a well known sky commentator. he said that the day Alex Retires is the day many things will kick off, hardly anyone is allowed access to his conferences and the ones that are have to ask the questions he allows (as they are vetted before)

now believe me if you want to i don't care. but i went to a show recently and met Noel Whelan ( what a complete T&T)

my brother also has long standing relationship with adidas going back to when Becks was with united and he has also been to sponsor events where he recently met a couple of liverpool players. they could not say who they were going to sign but did say that although Pepe loves liverpool he will go if he feels the owners do not match his ambition. they also said that even if Kenny gets the Job Gerrard may be the shock departure of the summer (abroad)


i know i will get lots of unbeleivables but CES'T La Vie

Who ever said we don't need our defence sorting out needs their head read! I can't ever remember us having such a poor goal difference! ED apart from Richard's have you heard of any LB, CB we are interested in! {Ed001's Note - to be fair we have a poor goal difference because we were playing poorly under Roy. We already have a bunch of youngsters ready to step up and there is no real need to buy. I have also said many times I do not know what defenders we are looking at, apart from a whisper about Baines, but that is unsubstantiated so I am not sure it is true.}

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 10:00:49
Hey ed, 1st of all great job on the site! 2ndly what do you think of clint dempsey as our backup striker? You think he's good enough? I think he plays good and he isn't lazy like benzema. Would like your opinion on this sir! Thanks! {Ed002's Note - I think for a back-up it should really be someone younger than Mr Dempsey.}

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 09:15:01
Eds great site keep it going, can you tell me if we have any scouts out in south america argentine and brazilian leagues, i really think we should take a gamble on some of the players out there, skillful plenty of pace and aggression, look at suarez another one of them and sure we would light up the premiership. also is there really any chance in getting benzema?

{Ed002's Note - Scouts attended the U20 Championship recently and there will be a general appreciation of what is happening in South America. But there are complexities in bring players to England from South America due to work permits etc. which makes it difficult. There are also often ownership issues with the players which means they cannot play in England. I personally doubt the Benzema story but it does of course remain possible.}

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 09:15:34
Yo ed! How bout mertesacker as cb? You think he's good for lfc? {Ed002's Note - Sure but I am not aware of any interest.}

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 03:47:57
{Ed002's Note - No. Ben Arfa looks like he may well have finally sorted himself out at Newcastle and he only signed a few weeks ago. He won't be going anywhere. Payet is an exceptional talent - I am sure many clubs will want him (PSG for a start) if Liverpool look at naive stats for their players.}

fully agree, payet is class just look at the international games he's played in. I know only three but he looks to be more involved with the new younger looking french squad.

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 08:04:52
Hey ed, have you heard who we are looking to definitely offload this summer? Jova and Poulsen look set to depart, but other than those two have you heard of any others?

DownUnderRed. {Ed002's Note - No - there is no news yet on departures.}

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 00:58:31
Is there any chance of us getting any youngsters in? I feel like we need to get the likes of Chamberlain or Wickham in, are there reports of these players or any one else coming in?

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 00:59:07
Center back positions are not a priority for LFC to strengthen in the summer.

However if Scott Dann is available at a reasonable price then Liverpool could make an atempt to sign him.

 

 

 

08 Mar 2011 00:24:36
I ED , I have a question that has been bothering me why did we not been bothering me why did we not try harder to get Honda, and if we did but he chose to go Napol did but he chose to go Napoli instead, why would he choose napoli over lfc? nstead, why would he choose napoli over lfc? By the way fantastic game yesterday gave all my Manu friends a lot of stick today! hibsylfc {Ed001's Note - he was holding off negotiations until after Nations Cup campaign, then we were busy trying to get a striker. I don't know how concrete our don't know how concrete our interest was in him or if we were just hoping for a cheap deal, just that we had reps there speaking to his people. The only reason I can see for choosing Napoli would be the lifestyle in Italy and maybe Champions League football.} that we had reps there speaking to his people. The only reason I can see for choosing Napoli would be the lifestyle in Italy and maybe Champions League football.}
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Honda feels that the game in Italy or Spain better suits his style of play, he also feels its more likely that he will qualify for champs league there as the only team really interested England is lfc.

Talented player but if he doesn't think he can cut it in England then I certainly dont.

Hope this helps
