Klopp: "There might still be something happening before the end of the transfer window. " - quote after the game.
Klopp usually never gives away anything to do with transfers so that's encouraging. Usually he will say nothing is happening if nothing is genuinely happening. Looks like at least someone will be coming in before the end of the window then.

But who?
{Ed002's Note - Sanches and Bowen perhaps?}

Ed002, don’t do that to me on a Monday morning.

I think you are right Ed. That’s pretty underwhelming but let’s hope Klopp can do his magic.

I'd take that Ed.
Think its a decent window that.

We always knew one or two players would be signed before the end of the window. Ed002 has consistently told us that for 2 months. Bowen I think would be good he knows where the back of the net is. We don’t need any more injury prone players so Sanches would be a big gamble. My choice would be to put any monies to just signing one top midfielder player. Athletic cut through us time and again yesterday.

I don’t see that we need another wide forward as we’ve got Salah, Mane, Jota, Elliott and Ox who can all do that, and our treatment room certainly doesn’t need Sanches to occupy it for over half a season, every season for the next five years. We’ve already got Naby Keita for that.

I hope not. Whilst both would strengthen the team somewhat I feel there is better quality out there.
What fee would Brighton be expecting for Bissouma Ed002?
{Ed002's Note - They don’t want to sell a doc they did it would be too much.}

Ed is Sanches not going to Barcelona I thought they had agreed personal term with him. Hope we don’t sign them 2 Bowen would cost a decent amount they paid £25m+ for him and his been decent for them so they would want a fair bit more than that for a player who I don’t think would be much better than what we have.
{Ed002's Note - Barcelona or Liverpool.}

Has Sanches not joined Barcelona Ed?
{Ed002's Note - Not yet.}

I think its either going to be Bowen or Danjuma and Sanchez. whoever comes in Klopp knows what he is doing.

Renato sanches?
Why is no one interested in pedro Gonsalves sporting lisbon.

In fairness Athletico were cutting through a midfield of a 36 year old, an 18 year old and according to many on here the worst player ever to lace a pair of boots. We still have a midfield of Hendo, Fab and Thiago to come back.

Come on Barca. Get that deal over the line! Dembele needs company in the sick bay!

Always try to give a new signing the benefit of the doubt and hope/ pray they succeed but this is definitely an occasion where I hope Barcelona sign Sanches.

So reading between the lines the Sanches deal is dependant on foreign player leaving. More than likely either Origi or Shaq.

ED002 - can we rule out Saul Niguez signing for Liverpool now? Or is he still seen as a viable option?
Regards,
KR65.
{Ed002's Note - He is still an option.}

I’m assuming Ed that we have now been in contact regarding Sanchez. Surely Barcelona can offer more wages than us.

Hi Ed002 - Has WHU made Bowen available for transfer? Or is it more a case of Liverpool and maybe the player pushing for a deal? Also, did WHU set a price at which they would consider a sale? Thanks.
{Ed002's Note - West Ham are aware of interest and have a replacement in mind.}

Daretodream I think Barca's current inability to keep paying high wages has been very starkly highlighted by the fact they've had to let one of the finest players ever seen leave as they couldn't afford to keep paying his high wages.
Not that I think we'll get Niguez but surely if his wages are an issue for us then they are as much an issue for Barca?
{Ed0666's Note - Messi departing barca is the best thing to happen to barca ever!!

ED002 - does that mean we are willing or have some funds to purchase Saul but wages are still an issue - or are we still to raise funds for this purchase on top of the wages.
Sorry if that is a stupid question. My question was due to being told previously that Saul would cost around €60-€70 mil
Sanches is certainly cheaper and younger but his injury record is not great.
{Ed002's Note - Saul would be more difficult because the club will look to having a payment plan if possible. But don’t rule him out - but others are also interested.}

We should put all the eggs in one basket and go for Saul. We still have 4 or 5 players to sell.
