Hi eds.
I've been reading posts and a player came up who I have always liked. Luis Gusavo. Is he a target and if so would we be favourites to sign him?
Cheers {Ed002's Note - No and No. He wants to stay at Bayern Munich but they would like to see him move on.}

Know how he feels, poor guy.

Suso is joining Almeria on loan for next season to gain experience.

Experience of playing in Spain, perfect?

Really don't understand Liverpool at times, Suso should of been loaned to either an Epl or Championship side so he can get use to the physical side of the game in England, just hope he don't end up like Dani Pacheco a very good player but never made it and is constantly loaned out to Spain.

Good luck Suso

He wouldn't get a game every week in the PL. Better to get games at senior level for a season. Good move for me.

Worked for Coutinho has it not Big D?

I think this is a bad sign. Suso showed so much promise and he should be in the squad where he will be a big part of the side. He has so much to offer.
Stirling is the one that should be loaned out. He was overhyped and never looked the player he was spoken to be. He would gain a lot from playing more, but Suso going on loan to Almeria sounds like a homesick lad paving the way to a Spanish return with a big club.

I agree with BigD Suso should have been loaned in the uk, as in spain its a totally different ball game. I for one would have kept him as he can produce when playing centre mid not wasted out wide! Furthermore, it is not as if we have the biggest squad full of quality that we can loan out suso! Does not make sense, certainly with the purchases made so far i'm not convinced at all we will be top 4 or even close!

Maybe the loan to a club in Spain in to match our style of play? A style teams here don't use. Experience in a top league should do him good, as it did for Coutinho. I hope he comes back and is used in the first team, big fan of the player.

Why, Shocking if their loaning him out, he is good enough to integrate with rest of team and proved it last season. Did the sae with Pacheco. Just disgraceful the way Liverpool deal with young players

It seems everytime we loan a player abroad he's forgotten about and never makes a successful return. Can't think of any examples. Should've beenloaned to pl team or not at all. Jayo

Hope we keep him in our squad .he needs p l experience and is ready for it .ant

Story all over the papers tonight so not really news .
Only way this makes any sense to me is that the LFC management don't see him making it here - else why not loan him to a championship side for example .
Doesn't look too encouraging for fans of this promising young player - and doesn't exactly bode well for our youth set up .Depressing

Maybe he just wants him to be playing at a club who play a similar style of football? There's no point on him playing at a club whose style is completely different to ours.

Any experience has to be good experience doesn't it. Not playing every week at LFC helps no one.

makes me laugh how you all think you know more about a player you only see in pictures and the odd game on tv. don't ya think brendan knows what he's doing (some one who sees him every day in training!?)

i admit I want him to stay and try out in the first team more but if lfc want to loan him out for EXPERIENCE and GROWING then that's obviously the best option!

stop critcising and support you muppets!

LFC 4EVER

Ed002 media are reporting that we are going to bid for Bernard now that we have missed out on mkhitaryan? is this true? {Ed002's Note - I don't know of interest.}

That would be superb

Bernard is also only-part owned by Atletico Mineiro. This makes it harder for an English club to sign him as England is only one of a few countries where part-ownership is banned. I think he will sign for Porto, personally.

Lad looks like he has talent. Reminds me of Coutinho. Would be a wonderful adition.

Eds, do you expect us to go for him? {Ed002's Note - See above.}

The only Bernard Liverpool will be signing is " Bernard's watch " not going to happen am sorry to say.

intitiwetrust

Press in Brazil saying that he will only decide his future once Atletico are out of the Libertadores (which could be as soon as tonight). And that there were 3 clubs actively pursuing - Dortmund, Spurs and Porto. Dortmund and Spurs have dropped their interest due to signing Micky and Paulinho respectively leaving Porto to get a clear run. Bernard apparently spoke to Hulk about Porto whilst together for the Selecao and Hulk was very positive about the club. Atletico have apparently received a bid of EU20m but are holding out for EU25m.
Can't see LFC beating Porto to him under the circumstances.

we have to sell to buy now. Downing (WHU, Villa, Sunderland), Coates (Italy likely destination) and Henderson (Everton, West Brom and Norwich) ALL available and expected combined income generated in the region of 22m which will be re-invested on a CB, LB and DM. Suarez will not join another PL team. If he stays with us and the above 3 are not shifted, our business will be concluded until January. The pot is empty.

inthered

Thanks for the info Mr.Henry.

How is the pot empty? We’ve sold AC £15.5m, Shelvey £5m. Bought Aspas £7.7, Alberto £6m, Mignolet £9m, Toure Free (say £2m sign on)
So what you saying? Our whole summer budget to get into top four was £5m??
Carlo

Why do people talk so much rubbish - how the hell do you know ' the pot is empty '?
And there is absolutely no way Henderson is available, and the combined income of the other 2 mentioned would be a minimum of £16 million.

So we didn't bid for Mkhitaryan! We have hardly spent much considering Carroll and Shelvey have moved on.

Henderson will not be leaving.

Henderson is going nowhere

Pot is empty, don't be silly. We are far from finished.

Why do we have to sell to buy now? Was there no transfer kitty for next season?
We have already gained 25 -28 million in player sales which we have spent on the new players.
Are the owners not going to put a dime extra in funds for new season and still think we will make progress?

Rambowich

So where was the money for Mkhitaryan coming from then? We matched Dortmunds offer. How did we do that if the pot was empty?
Chunk

Thats a load of rubbish, we were clearly willing to spend +20 mil on Mkhitaryan.

So funny listening to some people on here, Liverpool have money available to spend, we have recouped over £20M in sales so far with more expected to leave, and have brought in a little over £24M of players, As Rodgers said in his interview recently, we are looking to add 1 defender & 1 attacking player at least and will replace people who leave. Also cannot believe some of you want to sell Henderson i'm not in the know at all but i'm pretty confident in saying he will not be sold, also i'm excited about Aspas as he is a very good player and will be a big success at Liverpool.

What is the basis for this comment? The fact we didn't buy an expensive midfielder or the fact that we didn't bid for anyone of a number of overpriced players that some fans would like us to go for?

Net we have spent approx 3m after current player sales; are you insinuating that our "war chest" is now empty?

Besides we need to sell to get rid of some of the rubbish that hasn't been pulling its weight for the last few seasons

Jp

Ha ha, don't dare include everton in the "henderson takers" no chance mate, we have far better players than he will ever be

Selling Jordan Henderson would be one of the dumber moves we could make. Look at the stats from last season and he was as good as any mid in the EPL for the second half of the season. Great 2-way player, who's going nowhere!

Henderson going nowhere. Already sold. And Suarez will add money

To the obvious bitter above, are you talking about your new class signings such as kone and alcaraz? Yep, you have far better players. Once fellani leaves and Baines - both inevitable, you will be back where you belong. I'm grateful we didn't get roberto Martinez!

Ben

Henderson is far to good for the bitters

You win top prize for worst post of the month. downing, coates and henderson 22mill.

Do you people get so bored you just make things up?. have we suddenly splashed millions that I have missed?

We would have spent 20+m on HM so why do we need to sell in order to buy. In fact with the sale of Carrol and Shelvey we haven't spent nothing, seriously some of you need to use the brain god gave you.

Downing to villa? The same villa who buy young unknown players with potential for small fees, not to mention all the fans who hate him because of how he left.
Henderson to Everton? Really?

How were we going to fund £25 million for the guy from Shaktar then? Pot can't be empty!

And how do you know this? that's right you dont

Why do we have to sell to buy. Our net spend has been 1m.

Henderson is with us for a long long time! quality player .ant

Morning T'ya Ed,

Just wondered if any EPL clubs have looked at Destro of Roma. Looks a great prospect!

Papadopoulos will be a Liverpool player by the end of the month.BR has been notified that he will be fully fit to pass the medical by the end of the month following his injury otherwise BR will turn to other targets.The good thing is that Schalke's demands are no longer 20 mil.That's the news coming from Greece.
Tasos-YNWA

Lets say your right, surely that spells the end for Skrtel and possibly Coates if as expected Ilori signs.

BigD I believe by now you should have known Coates is a goner.

Coates yes and Skrtel hasn't exactly been stable during last season.the reason why BR didn't sell him to Zenit on January is because he didn't have an alternative and he didn't trust Coates as a backup of Carragher

I hear all the no loyalty crap aimed at LS, yet here's Skyrtel who has stayed loyal and up until last season was 1 of our better players. The guy has a blip and all the supposed fans want him sold for half the price of this injury prone Papadopolous who could be a 20m flop.

But its ok us fans not being loyal to players hey?
