Per Mateo Moretto, City are now in direct talks with Bouaddi. I wonder which midfielder LFC go for now since Bouaddi seemed like one of targets for midfield.

26 Jun 2026 21:23:26
Been told Spurs are willing to break their pay structure to sign top players. They have offered Tonali £275000 a week, plus they know what it will take to get Gakpo.

Correct me if I am wrong, but don't you have to agree a deal before you can speak to the player and his team?

{Ed078's Note - I believe you need the permission of the player's club to make an approach. It's hard to agree a deal if you haven't spoken to a player of their agent. There's a difference between a purchase price and an agreement with a player.

Hello fellow reds, I come in peace.
Quick intro, I am little Harry’s 2nd brain cell. (The intelligent one).
Other cell (captain chaos) is napping, so thought I would take advantage of it. I feel we should apologise for the recent trolling, captain chaos loves to wind folk up. He’s a wild card. I spend most of my time sorting his mess up. Today when I was napping poor little h ate 2 crayons, left the house with crusty old socks on his hands and wearing his dirty y-fronts on his head like a hat.

Obviously when I woke up little h was upset. We went in garden and did some rolly pollys to get a smile back on his face.
Once again I apologise from the bottom of my cell for the trolling. I will try my best to keep on top of it.
Anyways, got to go now. Mum has made alphabeti spaghetti and potato waffles for tea, and Greggs ginger man biscuit for desert.

Info for all.

From today All Red NFC passes are ready to download for the 26/27 season.

Really liking Jordan Bos, LB for Australia. Plays for Feyenoord.

I've known of him for a while since I live in Australia but it's the first time I see him play on the right (today against Paraguay) and he was just as good as he is on the left.

He's progressing really well.

Two seasons in Australia, one in Belgium and one in the Netherlands.

23 years old, quick with unlimited energy and contributes G/As (4 and 9 in 36 games last season).

I don't think we're interested but one to keep an eye on. He'd be on the cheap too.

26 Jun 2026 08:08:33
Yep, good player - very quick, a bit like A Davies.

26 Jun 2026 14:15:07
Yeah, similar.

25 Jun 2026 17:42:23
We should pull out if any Diamonde deal. He won't have a great season post WC anyway as all these players will come knackered. Buy him for 50million in summer of 2027.

25 Jun 2026 18:07:55
Who is going to own up and admit they let there village idiot loose on internet?

25 Jun 2026 19:00:04
El Hadji-Diouf was signed on the back of a good World Cup Tournament for Senegal. He ended up a duffer as well, and a bad egg eventually.

Diamonde was poor versus Germany just a few games ago.

Rayan (19, 20 this August) all day long, he has a release clause of circa £130 million, £100 for Mo, and a possible World Class talent for circa £30 million.

25 Jun 2026 19:39:21
The only village I know full of idiots is Yorkshire. So now the only question is, who let you use?

25 Jun 2026 19:46:03
I can't believe what I am reading.....Diomande was at threat v Germany and created a goal. Yes, his touch let him down, but he was an outlet.

We are not signing based on this WC, and to suggest we can sign him the following for half the amount is idiotic.

If we don't sign him some other big fish will come along and snap him up this summer.

25 Jun 2026 20:45:27
Well, Wirtz, Yorkshire is a county, not a village.

25 Jun 2026 21:36:20
Diomande another assist already in first half tonight.

25 Jun 2026 22:09:38
He looks rapid and seems to clock up the assists. As you'd expect, I guess, though he looks raw, but it's hard to form a view given the poor quality of his team mates and the opposition.

25 Jun 2026 22:34:31
Just started a thread on Diomande - I'm currently not convinced of the 109m plus price tag - I think it's a case of LFC want to get him B4 he goes to Real Madrid, PSG or Barcelona and they stick a stupidly high release clause into his contract! No doubt he has the talent, but needs to do more if we are seeing him as a direct MobSakah replacement - unless it's the case of thinking Diomande, Wurtz, Ekitike and Isak would share the goals round to cover for what MobSakah produced on a consistent basis?

25 Jun 2026 23:26:12
007, what do you mean £100 for Mo? Mo who? I'm confused.

26 Jun 2026 00:35:40
El Hadji-Diouf was donkeys years ago, 007, and if you knew anything you'd know that we'd already agreed the deal before the World Cup. In fact, Houllier even said so in an interview after we'd signed him, and he said he would've cost us a lot more had we tried to sign him after the World Cup.

Anyway, based on your logic, if we get Diomande for £100m then he's actually free because we are getting £100m for Mo.

I don't know how we are getting £100m for Mo when we let him go for nothing, but maybe you know something we don't?

As for the OP, what if we don't sign Diomande now and he has a great season and becomes the next Mbappe, Vini Jr? Then he'd cost double.

Get him in now and coach him properly to fulfil his potential, because his potential has no limits.

26 Jun 2026 02:53:49
1. The El Haji Diouf deal was agreed BEFORE the World Cup ever started.

2. Diomande's signing has absolutely nothing to do with the world cup whatsoever.

3. There's a large group of muppets on here judging Diomande based off the 1 or 2 World Cup games they've seen him play, which is beyond hilarious.

Get your coats, the lot of you.

26 Jun 2026 10:15:28
Absolutely Chewy, it does my head in. People love to change the past and twist the present to suit some kind of narrative.

26 Jun 2026 13:03:18
And some said it was nice to see Harry back.

24 Jun 2026 01:32:16
Ghana's Calub Yirenkyi. His club wants a record fee of £25m. Only 20. Scouted by us many times. Would offer great value in the market. Did anybody watch him tonight against England?

24 Jun 2026 11:49:45
Tidy little player that has already impressed the Liverpool scouts at youth level. We asked about him in January, apparently, while we were also looking at Bouaddi and his contract situation.

Jan Molby loves him btw. He was mentioning him on a podcast recently.

23 Jun 2026 19:52:20
Ok I will say it, Diamonde does not look 19. No way he is 19.

23 Jun 2026 20:42:11
Do you think he's a fake age so he could play a year or two down teenage/ youth years??!!. 🤔🙄😄✌

24 Jun 2026 00:39:09
Bit of dog whistle racism from the OP there.

{Ed078's Note - really? I'm the biggest anti-racist I know, and I never got that vibe. Then again, I am such a sweet summer child.

24 Jun 2026 02:28:25
Nah, no racism, just plain old say what I see. Can't ever tell, and tbh generally age fraud happens, so players can easily move into Europe. It's not unheard of. In fact, as recent as last FIFA Under-17 WC, a certain team was caught for age fraud.

24 Jun 2026 08:21:02
Wasn't this the rumour with Kanu back in the day.

24 Jun 2026 13:08:50
Get a grip VV!

24 Jun 2026 14:06:06
Wasn't there some rumours about Barca lying about Yamals age during his time in La Masia?

24 Jun 2026 17:57:27
He doesn't look 19, but his age etc. would have been verified before contracts signed with Leipzig!!! I'm not sure he is worth the over £100m price tag - yes he's had a good season, but realistically he is in the 40m bracket for current market! Don't get me wrong, he has the talent for sure, but I just don't see his performance being consistent enough in Premier League to justify that price rag.

25 Jun 2026 09:18:10
Yeah, they reckoned Kanu was about 10 years older than he claimed, which I fully buy into. Jay Jay Okocha too. They thought Obafemi Martins was at least 6 or 7 years older as well. It's a pretty common practice in Nigeria. The U17 Nigerian team once had a whole squad's worth of players disqualified from the AFCON because they were older than 17! 🤣 Testing did become stricter over the years, but it hasn't deterred attempts of age doping.

Cameroon had 30 odd players sent home from their U17 squad in 2023.

In Diomandes's defence, he has extremely low body fat, pronounced features, and a high hairline, which would make you look older no matter your age.

25 Jun 2026 09:28:21
Could be opposite, like Arjen Robben. When he was 30 he looked exactly like he did when he was 19. Trouble was, when he was 19, he looked exactly like a 30 year old.

22 Jun 2026 22:31:00
Malo Gusto could be on his way out of Chelsea. Is he worth taking a punt or not good enough?

23 Jun 2026 06:08:01
Not worth a punt, no.

23 Jun 2026 09:08:31
No thank you.

23 Jun 2026 14:29:09
Only Punt he's worth is an NFL one.

23 Jun 2026 17:03:29
Not one at Henley on Thames? What what...

24 Jun 2026 12:54:50
He's better than any right back we have currently.

24 Jun 2026 16:09:05
For the £75m that Chelsea apparently want, I can't see anybody 'taking a punt'.
