So in summary for firmino.
Lots of clubs want him and will meet the asking price. i'd say man utd, city and us are the top 3. Utd for me in pole position then us then city. Upto the player i guess but don't get your hopes up. If city didn't have ffp issues he'd already be theirs imho. Ed2 am i completely wrong or sort of there buddy.
{Ed002's Note - Not entirely, something else cropped up as well. It doesn't mean something cannot be done.}

What has cropped up Ed?
{Ed002's Note - He wants guarantees.}
23 Jun 2015 19:01:18
Out of the three clubs mentioned, surely we can guarantee more playing time?
23 Jun 2015 19:01:59
Game time guarantees ed?
{Ed002's Note - Yes, and that is why the move to Manchester City stalled.}
23 Jun 2015 19:03:37
Guarantees? I'm guessing that it's playing week in week out then and not sitting in the bench

Ed002
Do you know what the clubs stance is on those guarantees? Would they commit in order to get a transfer done? Or are they thinking about it, with other targets in mind?
Thanks in advance
{Ed002's Note - Most clubs won't commit to guarantees such as that - perhaps Liverpool will.}

If Hoffenheim granted permission to talk to the player via the appropriate route (representatives & agents) whilst he was still at the Copa America, could Brazil put a stop to it, so it doesn't take his concentration off the tournament?
Thanks in advance again Eds
{Ed002's Note - Yes, they would also need to agree.}

Don't think firmino needs guarantees on playing at LFC - he will walk straight into our starting line up 😜
23 Jun 2015 20:02:27
Iv heard from a source within the club that the deal is close to being finished.

Thank you for the info Ed002
Enjoy your evening
{Ed002's Note - Thanks - my evening will be spent on a 10 hour flight back to London.}
