Ed 001 is there a player ( like when we signed Fabinho ) who no one has spoke about or linked us to that you feel could come into this Liverpool side and have the same impact
By this I mean similar price also?
Interested to hear you opinion
Maybe I'm crazy and I know the boat has sailed but I still really like lemar.

{Ed001's Note - maybe Ndombele?}

12 Jul 2020 10:57:35
I have noticed a few times you mention him Ed
Is there a specific reason?
What do you think he could bring to our squad and team
Maybe if you haven’t already do a profile if your not too busy.

{Ed001's Note - I have added him to the list anyway, so there is one in future. Basically he is very much the Henderson type of player, technically strong but excellent in the press. Works hard, keeps running, but doesn't score enough. He is reminiscent of a younger version of Henderson and he has shown his quality when he dominated City's midfield a few years ago in the Champions League. It hasn't worked out for him at Spurs, but he hasn't had the backing of Jose at all.}

As per usual top explanation
I will keep an closer eye on him then
He was so highly rated at Lyon I can’t believe how wrong the spurs move has turned out.

{Ed001's Note - cheers mate. He has struggled to settle, then Jose comes in and makes him his target, the scapegoat every time things go badly. Jose likes one of those as he thinks it makes the others play better so they aren't the next to face his wrath. Trouble is that Ndombele needs an arm round his shoulder and he isn't getting it. Klopp, I feel, would give him the right environment.}

Spot on, Ed01. The worst thing is that Ndombele has only been playing Division 1 football for 18 months now as he rose thru the lower leagues in France which is where Lyon found him and sold him for a king's ransom to Spurs.

He is still very young, inexperienced but immensely talented with great ability. He needs nurturing and protection from a manager who cares about him and sees all the qualities he has. If the Busted Flush a. k. a Jose is who people are looking for to do all that then, all the best.

If Klopp had this kid with all the qualities he has that actually suits the way we play, I say give it two years, he will be unstoppable. With Spurs and Jose? He'll be a flop on loan at Burnley in a year's time.

.

{Ed001's Note - he is still only 23, plenty of time for a move and then have his career reignite.}

On the matter of Ndombele Ed002 said a couple of weeks ago that Jose does like him and will be working hard with him next season to get the best out of him-it was something along those lines anyway Ed001.Do you reckon JK should keep a eye on him for the future anyway?

{Ed001's Note - Spurs have money issues, you just never know who they might have to sell. A player on a high wage like him could be very helpful to move on.}

12 Jul 2020 13:22:29
Could we afford him?

{Ed002's Note - Liverpool has shown no interest in him but there are options from elsewhere .}

12 Jul 2020 13:19:36
If we have any transfer fund at all Ed001.

{Ed001's Note - if a player like him becomes available we should find the money imo. There are very few players about that could make a difference to our first team, most would be impossible to buy. So if one does come on the market we should at least consider him. Shame they don't want someone like Keita in exchange, could work out for both parties.}

12 Jul 2020 13:48:48
Ed do you think we are not looking but be completely willing to let Keita go?

I know he hasn’t performed as we had hoped since his move but I still feel like he has the talent. Needs to stay fit and work harder for the team consistently.

{Ed001's Note - we should be looking to offload, hard work is the most important thing a player can do. If he can't even do that basic part, then he does not deserve a place in the squad, no matter how talented.}

12 Jul 2020 13:53:50
I would take Ndombele tomorrow even before, Timo Werner. He is that good.

12 Jul 2020 15:23:27
If it were to happen would the sale of Naby cover the purchase price of Ndombele?

{Ed001's Note - that would depend on how much we sold Keita for and how much we paid for Ndombele.....}

12 Jul 2020 16:20:12
Very well pointed out Ed001.

12 Jul 2020 21:01:07
Do you know of any interest from us or purely just a player you like?
