So the transfer window is shut but some some confirmation are still going to come through. Ed001 is their a minuscule chance they may have made something pass the finish line or can we go to bed now? Thanks again for all the hard work this months eds, and all the guys that tried to give all of us a bit of information.
{Ed001's Note - get some sleep mate. If they have done something, it will still be there in the morning anyway.}
25 Jan 2018 12:09:11
Eds,
Do you think the club has shown interest in Richarlison Andrade? What are you opinions about the player? Thanks guys and well done for keeping your cool with all the insanity going on at the moment.
{Ed001's Note - they had him looked at while in Brazil, yes. He is good but far too lacking in composure, which is why he misses so many chances.}
1.) 26 Jan 2018 11:20:25
Well he would fit in well with us the chances we miss go get him now!
14 Jan 2018 10:37:57
A couple of stuff I've heard on French news gents. Firstly regarding Thomas Lemar, Monaco wants us to cough up £90-£100m. That's absolutely ridiculous, but any team will be holding a knife at our throats now, since we sold Coutinho and we got the dosh. God knows what going to happen on this one.
Last thing it's regarding Sturridge. Apparently Marseille are also interested now and they might join the other teams to sign the striker. Whether they are willing to meet that £30m price tag, we'll see what happens.
Anyway guys have a great game day. C'mon reds!
YNWA.
09 Jan 2018 21:55:37
Eds, Guys,
According to RMC Sport (French sport channel) it's going to be between us and Arsenal for Lemar, obviously depending on Sanchez's departure to Man City.
I know it's pretty frustrating not knowing if we'll be replacing Pipco this window, but whatever I can find out from French Sport channels regarding Lemar's potential I'll relay to you guys.
Personally I'd love him to sign for us, only time will tell reds.
YNWA.
1.) 09 Jan 2018 23:05:48
Do you think that if sanchez was to be sold this month that would trigger Arsenal to bid for lemar with a stupid amount may make us bid or just say have him?
{Ed002's Note - Arsenal are interested in Lemar.}
30 Aug 2017 19:28:53
From SFR-Sport (the TV channel, not twitter), talks are still ongoing with AS Monaco regarding Thomas Lemar and at the moment the Jardim is the one reluctant to let another key player go, but there's a good chance the deal will be done. Fingers cross reds.

A bit more than 5 hours left, are we going to be in for a big surprise Reds? I don't know for some reason I've got a good feeling about this. I might be wrong but hey oh. 😆.
1.) 31 Jan 2018 17:29:39
Yep, I have a good feeling too about a massive surprise. My missus will put out tonight.
Scratch that, its the last day of the window, not the last day of the world!
2.) 31 Jan 2018 17:31:19
There will be no surprise sorry - we don’t do Andy Carroll signings any more :)
3.) 31 Jan 2018 17:40:49
Kwang song han has been linked but his a 19 year old I've never heard of.
4.) 31 Jan 2018 17:41:00
Thankfully.
31 Jan 2018 08:58:15
Morning Reds,
So who's feeling optimistic today? lol.
1.) 31 Jan 2018 09:18:21
YES!
life’s too short to be pessimistic. 😃.
2.) 31 Jan 2018 09:18:47
My optimism never waivered! I still think we can win the Champions League and one bad week hasn't changed my mind.
3.) 31 Jan 2018 09:36:36
Here here.
4.) 31 Jan 2018 12:22:11
Champions league and a second place finish for me will do nicely. Cl will be tough but second should be fine. Let's hope for a nice quiet day.
5.) 31 Jan 2018 12:27:38
Are these sarcastic? Winning the CL? :O.
6.) 31 Jan 2018 12:52:48
Agree with MK. I have had a cheeky £10 each Way for UCL. I just think that all the planets are lining up for this. Im over 50 and I still get stupidly excited by all things "Liverpool F. C" Bring on Porto!
7.) 31 Jan 2018 14:18:52
I saw Neymar on the bus next to me so not sure what he's upto.
{Ed001's Note - as you are Welsh, must be off to sign for Cardiff, as which Brazilian superstar would not want to shi*kick for Colin?}
8.) 31 Jan 2018 14:24:40
We’ve done it before when no one outside the club would have fancied us, no one! But we did it.
9.) 31 Jan 2018 18:52:33
It's almost disheartening how you leave off Newport County as a potential destination for Neymar but he'd struggle to get into the squad ATM,
{Ed001's Note - that was his fear.}
29 Jan 2018 23:52:26
Eds, since the transfer window saga is drawing to a conclusion, would you be able to say who was the French player that Macca said we were after?
{Ed001's Note - no, it is up to Macca.}
1.) 30 Jan 2018 06:09:29
Is it really that difficult to work out?
Macca said it was on Twitter, which drops it to two names and he also said it wasn’t one we had mentioned previously which means it wasn’t Lemar.
2.) 30 Jan 2018 09:03:57
Enlighten us then Triangle, most of us don't follow the
Twatter brigade.
3.) 30 Jan 2018 09:51:23
Was it Bernard diomede?
4.) 30 Jan 2018 11:54:06
Griezmann was the player alluded to, this was also posted on this site several times.
Unfortunately seems the player has zero interest.
29 Jan 2018 17:09:15
Eds is it me or things are starting to get quite sad, at the beginning of the season, we had hope of at least lifting a piece of silverware. Now half way through the season, we lost a very important player (who was becoming toxic), out of 2 domestic cups and now because we lost 2 games, the fans are turning against each other and the team. We all want to see the club succeed but such is life at the moment and I'll say it again we've got to get behind the team, it might be a hard fought second part of the season, but if we do make it, the taste of the success will be ever so sweet, especially if we know we've played a part in helping the team.
I can't imagine how hard it has been for you eds to deal with everything coming your way for the past week. Everyday you read something about LFC is something negative, the club, the gaffer, the players and fans don't deserve that.
I can't wait for this transfer window to be over so we can get back to doing what we do best, being Liverpool FC and play a beautiful football.
YNWA.
{Ed002's Note - It isn't just you Adrien.}
1.) 29 Jan 2018 17:28:19
It comes down to this. Fans think LFC deserve to win silverware. Fact is this club has to earn that right irrespective of who plays for the club or who manages the club.
Until the club has earned it then there will be no silverware. At least the club is starting to get back into the swing of things in Top 4 and Europe.
Sometimes baby steps are required. At this point we need to get behind the club. We are still well in it to finishing top 4 and still going strong in the CL.
We need to start somewhere and establishing ourselves in the top 4 again is starting somewhere when UTD have been dominating for years followed by Chelsea and now City.
Liverpool have been on a downward spiral for a very long time now but it we seem to be climbing the mountain slightly easier nowadays.
We all want the same thing which is success. We need to earn it, it is not going to be given to us.
Next match day sing that song loud and with pride to try figure out why we support this club through thick and thin.
2.) 29 Jan 2018 17:50:21
It's just what happens every season really with us, fluctuations in both form for the team and expectations and frustrations for the fans - it's just a normal season as a Liverpool supporter right now.
We'll win three or four in a row soon and everyone will say we're the greatest thing going again - it'll be fine.
3.) 29 Jan 2018 17:59:25
Well said Max, there's a lot more to this club than winning titles - people just need to see it or support another club!
4.) 29 Jan 2018 18:09:35
We don’t have the right to silverware, that’s obvious.
However, selling your best player and not using the funds and taking the opportunity in the transfer window to put right the significant shortfalls in what is the weakest squad in the top six is ridiculously short sighted. Particularly in light of some of the results and performances we’ve seen.
As things stand our season is on the verge of fizzling out very quickly, a few more bad results in the league will see us out of the race for fourth place and as much as I’d like us to win the champions league, as things stand we’d be battered by some of the better sides as we’re so weak in midfield, defence and in goal.
We can’t simply keep hoping that Firmino, Mane and Salah keep outscoring the opposition as that has failed 11 times in the league and didn’t work out against West Brom on Saturday.
If you’re really happy with what you saw against Swansea and West Brom then good luck to you, because I wasn’t. Just remember, not one of our midfielders would be a starter at any of the other top six clubs and none of our keepers would even make their benches.
5.) 29 Jan 2018 18:25:21
So buying VVD and paying well over the odds because of the antics regarding VVD before Coutinho leaving is seeing the club keeping money back?
Mr Dennis, you need to understand how transfers work. Just because Coutinho is the 2nd most expensive player ever does not mean LFC are sitting with all that cash in the bank.
Just because the papers were reporting that a deal for lemar was imminent did not make it true either. Just because some wanted us to sign Insigne does not mean the club was going to do that.
What a mess this club would be if some of the fans on here became manager of LFC. Ha ha. Ed002 would have a field day :-)
6.) 29 Jan 2018 18:45:27
You're blinkered in my opinion by your own personal negativity I'm afraid Mr. Dennis - you haven't stopped moaning since the summer mate.
Are you forgetting how bad Arsenal have been, about 7 or 8 of our starters would get into their team, ask the Gunners' fans themselves?!
Even Cech has been poor for them on a number of occasions recently, there's something fundamentally wrong at that club right now - maybe the new signings will help them, but if not, they're in serious trouble.
Spurs are hardly having a great season yet either are they?!
We're above them if I'm not mistaken.
Chelsea are apparently in crisis, yet lie 3rd and are only ONE WIN ahead of us.
Take off the negativity blinkers and open your eyes mate, if you're not sitting pretty at the top of the league and all your players playing perfect 10's, you're having a bad season is it?!
City (the giants of football that they are) lost to us recently, we dominated them for long periods of the match - their first league loss of the season and some of their fans were beginning to question their players, tactics and so on, it was unbelievable.
There will always be ups and downs at every football club, it's unavoidable!
Get used to it or get into another sport - maybe not a sport where another team or teams have the cheek to beat you from time to time or you have to work for and earn your titles, including the fans (who may I add were muted on Saturday evening again right from the start) - my god that would be awful wouldn't it?!
7.) 29 Jan 2018 18:46:45
That is why fan ownership will be the slow death and eventually the end of this club.
Anfield may as well be demoilshed in place for a Mcdonalds if that is the case and that way everyone can be happy with buying a super size me happy meal.
Big smiles all around and thankfully fan ownership at Liverpool will unlikely ever come to fore :-)
8.) 29 Jan 2018 18:47:04
Mr Dennis what do you hope to gain just writing and writing how terrible we are? I agree with many issues but enough is enough. There is a time to call for change and tell some players some home truths but there are also times when you have to support.
NOW is the time to support. We are under pressure and have a massive game tomorrow night. We will win tomorrow the mood will change a little and we will go after Spurs at the weekend. This week the team needs support so leave the negative stuff until after Spurs.
9.) 29 Jan 2018 19:06:16
Spot on, Max. Dennis, I think you are missing the point here. No one is and has ever been satisfied with us not winning silverware. Do not mistake measured comments, laced with reality, perspective and level-headedness as acceptance of mediocrity. That is the mistake many fans often make. You or I moaning and panicking after each defeat (5 in all comps this season, a complete disaster, lol) will not make the team play better. It never has and it never will.
You have to accept the season for what it is right now and NO, our season is not on the verge of fizzling out at all IMO. We have a chance to make hay vs Hudd and Spurs so it is in our hands. We have worked too hard as a club to get back into contention after the Spurs debacle, to allow panic to set in or are you going to say you thought we would go 18 unbeaten and put 4 past City after that Spurs game? I doubt it, my friend. We have to make tjhe most of every opportunity to win that we get and fight for what we want. Cos you want something does not mean your opponent will give it to you if you ask nicely. You got to go get it, end of.
Regardless of what is happening good or bad, it is essential to keep a level head and remain grounded cos this is football where games are won, drawn and lost. It is up to the team to manage these situations, cut the bad results to a minimum and to us fans, to believe in the team even in the midst of a couple of bad results. If you give up now then might as well stop watching us play. Had those fans given up in Istanbul the way many on here are being so fatalist, you think Istanbul or Dortmund happens? Keep the faith, man!
10.) 29 Jan 2018 19:08:56
Well said max ðŸ‘ðŸ¼.
11.) 29 Jan 2018 19:48:50
Now that's what I'm talking about, Mark. Let's GO!

Champions of Europe 2018 ðŸ‘.
29 Jan 2018 09:01:37
Question for the Ed0001. What is your personal opinion about our chances of making top 4?
{Ed001's Note - our chances? Sorry I don't see what chance has to do with anything, despite my superstitions. We are good enough to finish top 4 and we should do so. It is not about chance, it is making the most of what we have.}
1.) 29 Jan 2018 10:38:00
If we keep playing fullbacks that don't have a clue, and goalkeepers that couldn't stop a pig in an alley, and centre midfield captains that already think they are in Italy, then we have no chance.
2.) 29 Jan 2018 09:44:39
Chances are covered in odds calculation, you can check them easily and we're favorites to make it, with United, City and Chelsea.
3.) 29 Jan 2018 10:16:52
Thanks Ed, I think that we can do it as well. They’ve showed that we can be up there with our unbeaten run, yes we had 2 bad games, yes it would have been nice if they’d had a replacement for Couts lined up before he was sold. At the end of the day, all it takes is for some of the players to step up and show that we got some balls about us and that despite 2 bad games, we’re still a team that can challenge for that top 4 spot.
4.) 29 Jan 2018 10:49:45
Fair one ed, It’s my poor choice of words, I should have asked if you think that we’re good enough. But I get what you mean, now it’s up to the players to step it up and show that we can come out of the 2 bad games stronger.
On another subject, I’ve seen stuff on Twitter about a protest tomorrow, what’s that all about? We’ve got an important week ahead, I think it’s poor timing from some fans to protest now.
{Ed001's Note - I had seen this about a protest, haven't had a chance to see what this one is about. I have kind of given up on keeping track of them. I am hoping it is another one about the away ticket prices being so high, which is an ongoing fight that I do fully support. Not often I am in agreement with SoS, but the issue of ticket prices around the Prem is one we fully agree on. Away fans are being fleeced in English football and it should be stopped.}
5.) 29 Jan 2018 11:43:10
Spot on, Ed. The ticket price issue should be fixed and I am all for that cos fans are getting destroyed financially and it needs to end.
As for our Top 4 chances, of course we are good enough to finish top 4. ABSOLUTELY! We have a better team overall than we did last season and we have picked up more points this Jan than we did last Jan as well. We are definitely good enough and should make it.
I know the last two results are frustrating and I get the whole anger behind it BUT last time I checked, WE ARE 4th and have a good chance to stay there or extend our lead over Spurs (who are not that great right now either) in the next two games.
All we have to do is make the most of what we have and the chances we have in games, show up with a plan and full desire to fight for every ball (my main concern over the last couple of games), defend with grit and determination and do what we know we can do. Our boys have shown that they can perform esp. after adversity. It is time to do it again and the game tmrw vs Hudd should be THE opportunity for the team to remind us of what they are capable of. Keep the faith, lads!
6.) 29 Jan 2018 11:45:57
From what I’ve read it doesn’t look like it’s about the ticket prices, seems to be the “FSG out†lot complaining about the last 2 results and lack of transfer business. If that’s the case I thinks it’s a bit of an overreaction. I’m sure you’ll find out what’s the actual reason ed. Hopefully it’ll be for a good cause and not just a strop.
7.) 29 Jan 2018 12:09:54
I’d love to be next to you every week Nimrod. Your the sort of bloke who would win the lottery and moan about how to spend it.
We’re Liverpool football club. What happened to our truely great unconditional support to all.
There footballers who have bad patches. Give them support to help them through it.
Y. N. W. A.
8.) 29 Jan 2018 13:00:12
That’s what I meant mate, “the overreaction†is if they are indeed having a protest about a bad patch, it’s not cool and not the right time to do it. Now more than ever we should be behind the team and not against them.
9.) 29 Jan 2018 13:08:15
Spot on, Gaza. Nimrod's post is just one that needs not be taken seriously cos like many others who don't offer solutions to issues, they are just moaning about the bl**ding obvious which solves NOTHING.
10.) 29 Jan 2018 13:09:14
Adrien, if they are indeed protesting about two defeats in 20 games, all things being equal then boys and girls, LFC is in trouble big time with fans like these.
11.) 29 Jan 2018 13:11:39
This protest is your generic FSG out parade where the state of our defense, Coutinho going on strike, global warming and the over-fishing of the north sea are all blamed on them.
27 Jan 2018 21:50:35
After today I think they’re both coming gents.
25 Jan 2018 18:21:31
Gents when we our main rivals are strengthening and we’re just sitting there watching, it is time to panic and be angry. One or two injuries for the second part of the season and all the hard work will be for nothing. I don’t think we can afford this risk, because losing European football potentially mean losing players like Salah and Mané.
Fans are never going but we have to look at the bigger picture and ask ourselves if it’s worth the risk. If we do it brilliant but if we don’t make the Champions league I can tell you now, the same fans that have been saying that we shouldn’t invest in a playmaker will be shouting “FSG OUT†at the end of the season.
25 Jan 2018 14:37:14
I really don’t like that James Pearce fellow. Too much negativity.
24 Jan 2018 19:22:52
Does that mean we can expect a bid for him ED001?*wink* *wink*.
18 Jan 2018 14:57:22
I personally think we’re going to make one more signing gents. If we don’t, well we’re going to have to get behind the team anyway we’ve got a good and capable squad. Let’s back them up no matter what.
29 Jan 2018 13:00:12
That’s what I meant mate, “the overreaction†is if they are indeed having a protest about a bad patch, it’s not cool and not the right time to do it. Now more than ever we should be behind the team and not against them.

I heard Ken Aguero is still in the running to replace Coutinho. 🤣.
