Liverpool to bid one last time for Chilwell.
1.) 25 Jul 2016 07:53:06
We know what they want ie £10 Million. It could be our last signinin in before we start on our departures. Stop arsing anout with £7 n £ 8 Million iffers n stump up. We have done OK on our selling for decent cash so far, can't have it bith ways. Get the £10 Mill on the table n if he is as good as rumours have it deal clised n a hopeful decent left back on our books. Especially if we get the £6 Mill rumoured for Smith.
2.) 25 Jul 2016 08:12:02
I have to agree, if we get him in early, hopefully fly him over to America, get to know the squad nice and early.
3.) 25 Jul 2016 12:10:17
Yep, after having Smith bid of £6m, I'd now say get it done at the price we know £10m. I never expected £6m for Smith and he has been ok, we know he is looking good so it's not like we've any reason to laugh at that value. But, we can say we weren't expecting that and more like £3m-£4m would have been good, so let's use that bonus extra and wrap up Chilwell.
4.) 25 Jul 2016 14:01:02
Agreed, lads. I don`t understand this messing about with small pennies. We forked out 25m on Wijnaldum without blinking an eye yet we are penny pinching on a player who costs half of what GW cost. Chilwell is clearly who we want so stop messing about, pay the 10m and be done with it.
5.) 25 Jul 2016 16:24:05
It's that attitude that cost us dearly with some major flops.

Anybody else lumped on Man City to qualify to make sure if all goes wrong you don't want to top yourself.

Reading some comments here are slightly embarrassing? Don't want to insult anyone, but please think before you post. The desperation and self torture fans go through during a transfer windows is embarrassing. Just relax and wait and see. Personally love to see a good signing and hold a season ticket! But don't understand the obsession of signings we get who we get! Relax!
1.) 01 Jul 2017 04:56:16
Did anybody get the gist of what Nikp87 is saying? I've read the last bit 15 times and I'm getting more and more confused each time I read it. Holding a season ticket? Please tell me that's a typo for my own sanity!
2.) 01 Jul 2017 06:08:39
What does a season ticket has to do with transfers? Or are you from the Soooper fans section!
3.) 01 Jul 2017 07:16:01
If the deal happens for keit then great but I really don't think centre mid is a must and if it don't happen we should just go all out and get a top cb and lb, we have shown we can score for fun it's being tight at the back we need and with Hendon hopefully back to fully fit we will be a difficult team to beat!
4.) 01 Jul 2017 07:56:39
The OP's post is very clear so I suggest people who don't understand it overall, should read it again. As Kopit said, we are well stocked in CM and if any player should be added there, it should be for depth purposes even tho we have 5/ 6 players there for 3 spots. Our attack is fine as well with 5/ 6 players for 3 spots as well. Our issues like at the FB positions and maybe at CB. This is where we should focus on right now, to improve the first team.
5.) 01 Jul 2017 09:16:01
How could anyone say Center Mid is well stocked with quality? Kieta will walk into our midfield. Our center mid is mediocre which is evident when team sits back and we heavily relies on Coutinho to drop into the middle to start piulling things. We are excellent in passing sideways and backwards! There is no one center midfielder who could drive past couple of players. Just having numbers doesn't warrant quality!
06 Feb 2017 04:57:06
To the delusionals! The only team above us with a slightly smaller budget is Tottenham! Everyone else is way above finance wise! We don't have an empty cheque book and it will take time for klopp to build and gel his squad! Who would you get in to replace klopp? I personally couldn't think of anyone even thinking from a plastics frame of mind! Liverpool have no right to be guaranteed a top 4 realistically if u put down to finance so there for in my opinion most fans have unrealistic expectations as money is everything in football these days right? Fickle fans especially the ones calling for klopps head for selling benteke as seeminly he now seems to be the plan b we desperately need! 30 million is no plan b in my humble opinion! Teams better than us have sticky patches! And as a fan of the club when we get beat by hull it hurts! But the reaction of some of the people on this website embarrasses me more! Weather it's stupidity or just lack of common sense I do not know but liverpool definitely have less muscle financly than at least 4 clubs so we are pretty much where we belong financly! Apologise for the spelling but severely dyslexic and no spell check. Feel free to rip away. YNWL ( except you will unless u don't live up to unrealistic expectations of a delusional fan Base! Embarrassing!
1.) 06 Feb 2017 05:04:57
I juat bought gabriel barbosa, donnamura, ginmenez and bazoer in one window. I don't know what the hell fsg are upto.
2.) 06 Feb 2017 05:18:13
If they don't sign aguero! And klopp doesn't start moreno as lb I will switch to chinese league!
3.) 06 Feb 2017 08:10:09
It just excuse after excuse in my opinion at Liverpool. We don't have as much money but for seasons we have purchased more than Arsenal, Spurs and Utd and consistently finished beneath them. The manager needs time yet Mourinho walks into Chelsea twice and wins the league straight away and Conte who was there to "steady the ship" is walking away with the league this season. Look at Mourinho at Utd now. Still in 4 competitions with a team that includes an ageing Carrick, Valencia, Rojo, Smalling, Jones, Mata who he got rid of at Chelsea and Herrera who was doing sweet FA before before Mourinho came. Are these players much better than we have? Seriously? There is somethkng seriously at fault at Anfield but i haven't a clue what it is. Maybe the pressure on players, expectation of fans, management higher up at Liverpool, scouting, i don't know, maybe a combination of things but we can't continue to make excuse after excuse to suit our arguements. There has been too many times over the years that we have under achieved. It has to be more than a lack of finance or bedding a new team in. Other teams can do it and be better than us, why can't we?
4.) 06 Feb 2017 08:25:28
Faith, I just bought Alvaro, Camacho and Ricardo Rodriguez in January alone.
5.) 06 Feb 2017 09:23:34
NiKp87 your making the excuse about financial power when Leicester last season proved it's not all about finances and big name signings. Also we were top of the league scoring 3 goals a game a just over a month ago and we are still competing really well and unbeaten against the teams you said have more money. What's frustrating is the sudden and quite long lasting slump in form we have had and how we are going backwards and being beaten by the teams with less money than us and there doesn't seem to be any other plans to get us back getting results it's the same thing over and over every game. I don't want Klopp out at all he deserves time but it's worrying that this is such a prolonged bad batch yet we go into each game pretty much doing the same thing and not trying anything different. you're the delusional one if you think the money spent list should effectively be the way the table finishes at the end of the season.
6.) 06 Feb 2017 09:56:47
I Completely agree with rover, the owners need to realise if they want the club to win a title and become a force in europe its going to take more than a few signings from southampton. I am sick of us being linked with the likes of Van Dijk and Azmoun when United are buying Pogba for 80 million and looking to buy Greizmann in the Summer and they like us have no champions league. What do they have that we dont? If its money then FSG should see they're out of their league and sell it to owners who will make the difference. Its fair enough saying we don't need to spend we have a world class academy when all we have brought through is sterling as a real first team starter in the last 10 years and look where he's gone. Before people say look at Leicester last season I say look at them now, I don't want us to win the title and go back to where we started. Its hard to be patient when you can't see any improvements.
7.) 06 Feb 2017 10:35:39
We are going through a bad patch and at are still within one point of a Champions League play-off place and three of an automatic place. There are two assumptions at the moment - the first is that Liverpool are going to continue to drop points - the second that ALL the clubs around us are going to continue to win points.
The Liverpool I saw at my first visit to Anfield for several decades (against Watford) was no flash-in-the-pan. I believe that Liverpool can regain that form. There are still ten games in which clubs in the top 6 play each other so anything can happen. Liverpool 2H 1A, Chelsea (Champions) 1H 1A, Arsenal 2H 2A, Spurs 2H 1A, Man C 2H 2A, mu 1H 3A. Liverpool are still in with a shout so let the fans get shouting and get behind the team.
8.) 06 Feb 2017 11:46:23
So Liverpool have no right to be inside top 4. Lol more excuses flowing around today. So what is the progress under Klopp? And y do you think we will get it right next season when you admit there are teams with better finances? One of the most dumbest post in a while. So you can't beat hull city and all came down to lack of money?
9.) 06 Feb 2017 11:21:11
It's all to do with the mentality of the team. As seen many times over previous seasons we crumble when under mental pressure. The best signing we could get right now would be to get Steve Peters back. And sharpish.
10.) 06 Feb 2017 11:34:36
Cyklops
Did we not splash £25 mill on a Wijnaldum who is learning his trade as a CM? Or how about £35 mill on Mane. Went have spend within or even more that our budget. It's the choices that has been the issue over the years. Let it be £35 mill Carroll or £20 mill downing. Liverpool never had shortage of money in my book. We have spend a lot more than Spurs who are doing excellent with the players they have.
11.) 06 Feb 2017 11:34:34
Cant see any improvements?
We have been immense this season. Every single team in the top 6 has had a bad period of about 4/ 6 weeks. We will get through it and it will start on saturday when we smack the spurs about.
After that the pump will be back and we will be back to normal. Cant remember the last time the season finished in february. Short memories. fake fans!
12.) 06 Feb 2017 12:28:04
Cyklopps
What do you united have that we don't. well that's a simple. The richest club in the world with an open cheque book.
We pay over the odds for players because they know we are desperate.
United of old along with barcelona and real Madrid would bully teams into selling players at a fraction of the price it would cost us.
Also wages play a massive part as united will pay £250,000 a week where we can only pay half that.
13.) 06 Feb 2017 12:43:02
Well unfortunately FSG needs to sell to someone who can compete financially with the clubs you mentioned. Otherwise I will never see Liverpool win the league in my lifetime.
14.) 06 Feb 2017 13:11:40
RedWillis says:
"We are going backwards and being beaten by the teams with less money than us"
But then goes on to say:
"you're the delusional one if you think the money spent list should effectively be the way the table finishes at the end of the season. "
You lot drive me mental sometimes!
Yes we're playing awful and struggling for form. I can think back to so many recent seasons where January has been a shocking month on the pitch. But this team hasn't suddenly forgotten how to play football.
It is what it is, a loss of form that can be turned on its head with a couple of decent results. Roll on the spurs and gunners. Huge 6 pts IF we stop the rot!
15.) 06 Feb 2017 14:11:51
So now that we are struggling for form, the moaners and FSG haters are out in force. Didn't hear them moaning when we were crushing teams in the first half of the season. "Should not have sold Benteke". That one takes the cake. Must be the same fans who still thought Migs was a great GK and forgot how hopless he had been before he got benched. Now, he has reminded us of how hopeless he is which is not surprising. "Klopp has not improved us". Another nonsensical comment. Who has the record for the most PL points won by the half way point? Klopp. Who has the best record by vs the big teams since last season? Klopp. Who is the guy that Pep, Mou, Poch and Wenger can't beat? Klopp.
I think people got suckered into thinking our team was good enuff for the title challenge cos the media kept hyping us up so if you fell for that, that is your fault and not Klopp's. Many of us knew that certain players would need replacing regardless of our form. Many thought Origi and Studge would step up in Mane's absence. Many of us thought Migs would stop being a calamity. Alas, none of these happened. Is that Klopp's fault too? Didn't many of us here rail against Karius and wanted him benched for a known clanger in Migs? Now, they are now saying they want Karius back. See the lack of clarity in such thinking and the constant flip-flopping? The hindsight geniuses are never wrong, are they?
Look, we are going through a bad spell and Klopp needs to take responsibility for part of it which, he has. But I think some of the players have been bottling it and to that end, heads need to roll cos if you don't have a stomach for a CL fight then, stay home and allow those who do go out there and win.
16.) 06 Feb 2017 14:21:40
Don't really understand why I drive you mad with that post. It was in reply to the op that claimed that the reason we can't expect to compete for the top four is financial reasons. I was just pointing out that we are performing well against the teams that have more money than us and worse against the teams with less thus disproving his point. Also pointing out that before Christmas we were performing well and looked dead set for top four but now because we're having a serious slump that all of a sudden it was delusional of us to think we could challenge and finish top 4?
17.) 06 Feb 2017 15:37:29
Talking about finances Wenger has managed to remain in top 4 with what Chamkah, Wilshere, Bendtner and Fabianski for how many years? Top 4 is an easy task title is difficult.
18.) 06 Feb 2017 17:14:54
Harry title too is not difficult mate.
19.) 06 Feb 2017 17:24:31
Harry title too is not that difficult mate. U don't need millions to beat the likes of hull swansea burnely etc to win this league which is needed. U need a flexible tactician and planning to do it. There's a reason all these years as a club we haven't progressed and our rivals have been leaving us behind coz we lacked planning so do now.
20.) 06 Feb 2017 18:24:17
Not being funny but we could have the best tactician in the world and this group would still fail. Its not about money, or formations or even talent. Its about attitude and players taking responsibility.
Constantly passing side to side and leaving it to the next man to make a run, or take on a player to make something happen. While courinho may not be in great form at least he is trying but i can't say the same for all of them tbh. let's not even mention a goal keeper bottling being hit in his fragile body by an opposing forward and letting them score instead. Its all mental with this team and unfortunately it won't change until half of them get shifted. Not ideal i know but how do you counter the whole squad practically going missing for a month.
21.) 06 Feb 2017 18:55:07
Klopp had 3 transfers and was happy with the squad. Injuries are part and parcel of the game nothing new there.
05 Feb 2017 02:46:28
For the negatives out there! We call ourselves supporters as in support our team through the good and bad! I understand the grievances on offer but I for one will always support anyone that pulls on the top through thick and thin! It's times like these that players need us behind them the most!
1.) 05 Feb 2017 08:29:01
I know i will be vilified for this but its my opinion. Waro also accused the fans of moaning and that they should man up. Someone then quite rightly pointed out that fans pay hard earned cash to watch a top prem team. These players get paid more money a year than some fans see in a lifetime. They need our support, yes they do, but they also need to pull their fingers out and man up too, take responsibility and do their damned job, much like the so called lesser players have been doing against them and sending them packing with their tails between their legs.
I throw this the way of klopp too who has been dissapointing to say the least. It hurts so much precisely because we know how they can play and also because we were the closest we have been in a long time to really challenging. But the players have bottled it, leaving it to the next man to make something happen hence the mindless sideways and backwards passing. It is not good enough and the fans can quite rightly question what is going on.
2.) 05 Feb 2017 11:59:33
You could call the world what ever you want but Klopp has been found out and even he knows it. Changing personals every week wouldn't please 70 million supporters outside. The team cannot break rigid defense everyone in the planet knows it while there is no improvement in the defense.
3.) 06 Feb 2017 04:53:54
What do u mean found out? The only team above us with a slightly smaller budget is Tottenham! Everyone else is way above finance wise!

19 Aug 2016 13:41:50
The situation with Sakho is has been clearly stated is if we receive a sufficient bid then we will sell him, if not we won't! Simple!
10 Jul 2017 21:14:16
Well the fact he posted the deal was done. When we had not received permission from the club to speak to player kind of proves his information was in fact complete bull! No?
{Ed025's Note - no nik, to all intent and purposes the deal was struck between his agent and liverpool, im sure macca like all of us thought it was sealed with the permission of southampton which ended up not being the case..blame your club not macca..
04 Jul 2017 03:02:31
Hahaha! I don't believe we will get Kieta! But more realistic we will sign him than you knowing any journalist that is not a fragment of your imagination!
10 May 2018 01:00:32
Are we not basically guaranteed 4th due to a far superior goal difference?
28 Jan 2018 15:31:46
The penalty?
02 Jan 2018 20:22:42
What ed025? Are you implying you want him to go to jail and hope he gets raped? Steady on mate!
{Ed025's Note - i never used them words mate..
27 Nov 2017 03:32:31
Erm no. no matter who is at lb until we have players who can defend as team we are screwed. Did u see in the first half v Chelsea when Alonso clipped a ball in to our box on left hand side and about 6 at least of our players were all pressing the ball very good. except it wasn't because Alonso just dinked it on to the right and we had no defender to be found. Liverpool have some outstanding athletic talent but I don't see much intelligence in these players. I'm no expert but off the ball they are horrendous! So for me Moreno not to blame they all are!
06 Feb 2017 05:29:55
Prob wouldn't be that awkward to be fair! It's football and afcon Egypt have won it what 4 times? It's got no prestige at all!
