Hi Eds
On the left back situation has our interest totally died in Jordan Amavi of Aston Villa? Would be a far better shout than Andrew Robertson.
{Ed002's Note - There is no remaining Liverpool interest in Amavi. Klipperty still has the Klopps for Robertson.}

Cheers ed
Thanks for your reply just can't see what he see's in him unfortunately.

Scottish players often do well at lfc; )

I really think Robertson will shine at Liverpool. He's going to be joining a pretty special defence project. And at the reported 8 mil he's a snip compared to 35+ for mendy. If it were your money what would you do? I love the club but is mend 4× the player Rob is? I don't think he is. I want a great squad but felt pride at lfc being "in the black" this season. While giving city and Chelsea an attacking lesson. I'd take lacazette though :)

ed001 - did you have an opinion of robertson mate? I think you said somewhere that you've seen him plenty of times, but not sure if you gave an assessment on him?
thanks in advance.
{Ed001's Note - I have given an opinion on him countless times. He is not a player that impresses me.}

You really do think differently to me. I think fullbacks are really important for us especially for those games that needs 'unlocking'. I would spend all I need to get who I wanted. I would take Alaba and Alves, but because Alaba won't leave Bayern for us, Mendy would be my second choice. If not then perhaps Jordi Alba. But really i hunk we need to get excellent fullbacks to compete. Robertson won't do.
{Ed001's Note - why Alba? Jordi Alba is hopeless.}
6.) 06 Jun 2017 06:53:10
I'd take Jessica Alba.

For me Milner deserves the left back role, he earned it last season, sound defensively and going forward. Plus he can take free kicks and pens. His experience will be vital and has to stay in the team. I can't see him playing anywhere else. Save the cash and get the Ox.
8.) 06 Jun 2017 07:28:59
Ricardo Rodriguez? Quality player playing for a team that has just had to play in a playoff to avoid being relegated. Not blessed with incredible pace but a great defender and he has as good a final ball from free kicks and crosses as anyone.
9.) 06 Jun 2017 07:34:12
Milner has now become predictable in attack for opposition teams. Defensively he is decent and has done well for the new role.
10.) 06 Jun 2017 07:38:08
Plus Milner's crossing and Corners are excellent. 1 goal in evey 3 croses 😎.
11.) 06 Jun 2017 07:58:19
Id still rather get a left footed player for the left. Too predictable down that side with everyone pulling back onto right foot. Milner I'd be happy to see used a RB as TAA is brought through if that was the only alternative to Clyne day dreaming through games.
12.) 06 Jun 2017 09:46:18
I'll be happy if we sign Robertson, thought he looked a decent player in a rubbish Hull side, good defensively and quick to get forward with a decent left foot. Don't see him starting ahead of Milner though. I'd also be happy with Milner starting the season as first choice LB, thought he was excellent last season. Hope we push through with Van Dijk deal now, unbelievable signing, crazy money Southampton making on him.
13.) 06 Jun 2017 10:25:47
Concerning Milner, while i imagine he isn't a complainer at all, i don't think he wants to stay at left back.
He also strikes me as a player who doenst mind battling for a place in his preferred position. or left or right of that position :)

Hi Eds
With all the left backs we have been linked with which their is a lot have ye any idea which 1 is our number 1 target? I know ed001 you say Klopp has the klopps for Robertson so would I be right in saying that it is him or someone else such as Mendy or Tierney or is their others I have left out?
{Ed001's Note - I never said that about Robertson, I said he is a possibility. Mendy was first choice, Tierney is not looking for a move so is almost certainly out. We have looked at a few, including Ghoulam. Mendy is the one we would prefer.}
1.) 22 Jun 2017 20:09:19
Functional and competent would do for me at left back. Signing the flavour of the month might not work. A left footed Steve Finnan if there is such thing?
2.) 22 Jun 2017 20:17:22
Cheers ed001 for your reply my bad sorry it was actually ed002 who said that about Robertson my apologies.
{Ed001's Note - no worries, it does sound like something he would say.}
3.) 22 Jun 2017 21:10:25
Steve finnan was one of the best crossers of the ball.
4.) 22 Jun 2017 21:29:01
When was last time we had a quality left back? Riise had a hell of a shot and our best we have had lately but even he was a bit suspect defensively.
Right back, in premier league era, Rob Jones, Babble, Finnan all quality, so I'm not sure why it should be that LB is such a problem position for us for so long.
5.) 22 Jun 2017 21:59:27
When fit Fabio Aurelio was quality.
6.) 22 Jun 2017 21:39:07
Is there still any chance of Mendy or have we backed off (if we ever were in for him) Ed001? I think you mentioned it was more likely he'd end up at City.
{Ed001's Note - he was too expensive so we backed away.}
06 Jun 2017 00:07:07
Cheers ed
Thanks for your reply just can't see what he see's in him unfortunately.
16 Aug 2017 11:39:01
Cheers for your reply ed. Yeah its terribly frustrating as it would go someway to fixing our defensive problems and always looking vulnerable once they get past our initial press.
16 Aug 2017 11:17:09
Someone like Krychowiak or Steven N'Zonzi would be great but won't happen. We desperately need a holding midfielder with a bit of bite. Love Hendo and Emre but it's not there natural position.
Thoughts ed001?
{Ed001's Note - I would take either of those two as well. I don't understand why we did not go for Obiang or N'Zonzi. Klopp must see a need for someone to just sit in front of the defence and cover by now!}
