Hi ed, is there any interest in Rami as a replacement for Skrtel if he should go? {Ed002's Note - There has been interest but not from Liverpool.}

It's a shame that were not interested really. If we could have brought him in for a decent price he would have been a fantastic option. However, surely he would want to be starting XI?

Eds,
have a couple of questions
1) Ed02 saying we will be watching Burak Yilamz tomorrow. It is pretty certain he will be Suarez replacement if he is brought in. What I wanted to know is what sort of fee will Gala be looking for him?
As looking at his age, I reckon the most we would be willing to pay is 20M pounds.

2) Is our interest in Diego Costa pretty much dead or a deal can still be struck with Athletico Madrid?

Costa and Yilamz to replace Downing and Suarez (the one who doesn't want to stay) in the squad is like living a dream. {Ed002's Note - (1) Galatasaray will be looking for as much as they can get. Their starting point was €40M but if and when they sell it will likely be less. (2) I think a deal is unlikely.}

Cannot see us buying Yilmaz, too much money for his age and does not fit with BR's system
Smokescreen?

Agree1 Disagree1

Everyone seems obsessed with the BR system, we won't sign anyone for that much money- we have missed out on anyone in that bracket and I don't see us competing for players of that worth. spurs now seem to be bigger and in a better position to buy big. all very frustrating. we need to sign 2-3 players who can go straight into the squad. lose suarez. to Madrid and reinvest. I know suarez has been disloyal etc but seriously why would he want to stay? even j.c has said he's to good for Liverpool! he is. we are years away from competing with the rest and certainly ain't going to win the league anytime soon.reality check fellow reds.

Ed are we or anyone else showing interest in Kondogbia? Looks to be a fantastic young player in the making. {Ed002's Note - Arsenal, Manchester City and Juventus are the clubs that, right now, have a realistic chance of signing Kondogbia - but there is also interest from elsewhere (not Liverpool).}

Hi eds, first of all thanks for all the feedback, great site, on here close to 10 times a day hehe Would just like to ask if there is any interest from lfc in Ben Arfa! Any chance of him signing this window? And if so does it depend on Suarez leaving?

Thanks again eds, have a great day YNWA! {Ed002's Note - Newcastle has done a fantastic job in sorting out Ben Arfa over the past 18 months. There was a time when it looked like Marseille were just going to give up on him. I recall my wife saying that Bursaspor offered to take him on loan and it was seriously considered before his moving to Newcastle. Arsenal and Schalke have shown an interest but in the unlikely event Newcastle were to make the player available this summer then I would think PSG would be the desired destination for Ben Arfa.}.}

I recall on this site before he signed for Newcastle fans screamed out for him. The eds and certain fans a like said no he's a problem player. But he's done well, sometimes a risk is worth taking. It may not have worked out for us. Just an observation really.

Keep up the good work eds.

Ed001
you heard about Gary Medel to Cardiff for 12M Euros?
any chance we might go for him or is it just wishful thinking on our part. I just don't know how can't BR and coaches not see our desperate need of a strong, physical DM when everyone else sees it.

Also any news on the Papadopoulos front?
I really reckon we should move now because if Chelsea sell Luiz, I feel they will be all over Papa. {Ed001's Note - sorry, much as I would love us to move for him, we have not shown any interest in him as of yet. No change regarding Papadopoulos that I know of. The price has been set, but we are just not paying it, as things stand.}

Believable4 Unbelievable15

I just hope we tie it up quickly because I fear that if Luiz moves to Barca then Chelsea might be after him.

Liverpool are trying to sign Contento from Munich on loan for left back according to reports in Germany. Any truth eds? {Ed002's Note - Liverpool are certainly looking to take a left back on loan - which is the reason Cissokho has stalled. Contento would be a good choice but Liverpool would need to give commitments about playing him, and I don't know if they would be prepared to do that, even if Bayern Munich were prepared to loan him out. A loan enquiry from Eintracht Braunschweig has been rejected already. Hertha Berlin has also enquired of the player, but a move to Werder Bremen seems to be the favoured solution right now. Perhaps that will change.}
