Ed’s which teams are interested in mane if he were to move is there any solid interest?

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of any approaches to Liverpool for Mane. If Liverpool want to make him available it will be done through his agent.}

Worried that he has lost that burst of pace a little, seems to be struggling with all parts of his game though.

Mane and firminos cycles have come to an end at liverpool as consistent first teamers. Firminos decline has been for a couple seasons now and it’s been clear for a while we’ve needed an upgrade in that position, especially when you take into account we were about to bring in Werner in the summer. I personally think firmino should move on and it would be best for all parties, he gets a fresh start and the club tries to upgrade with hopefully a decent fee from his sale. At most he should only be a squad player, if he is to stay, but somehow I see us persisting with him in the starting 11, much to our detriment. Mane is following the same trend, we see glimpses of the old mane but he’s lost his edge, we see more of the poor sides of mane that we’ve come to see in recent years rather than the good sides. I’m still willing to give him time, but I just think his fate is the same as firminos at the moment. Both need fresh starts and we need decent fees from their sales, problem is salah could force his way out and that leaves us in a whole heap of problems, if salah wasn’t an issue and was guaranteed to stay at the club then I would let mane and firmino go and try bring in better performing players offensively in a heart beat.

With Bayern apparently looking for a new manager at the end of season is Klopp someone they are interested in? Do you think they would try tempt him? I just worry the biggest job in Germany may be hard to turn down for him.

{Ed002's Note - Bayern want to keep HF who is probably the second choice behind JK for the Germany job. They could well look to JK if HF wins out with the Germany job - but there are probably several other options to be considered there.}

Surely BM will be primarily interested in Nagelsmann if HF leaves.

I suspect Nagelsmann will end up at BM if Flick leaves this summer, but I guess the question is whether they think he's ready. He's still really young for a manager and has never been at a club the size of BM where egos and big personalities clash from the dressing room all the way up to the boardroom. Also, the fact that he's never won any silverware might count against him, but then again, he's been up against the might of Bayern his entire managerial career so far.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed077's Note - and RBL are still in the DFB pokal which Bayern are out of so he might win it??

But I think if Klopp wanted the Bayern job, he will get it. Personally I would be a bit surprised of Klopp left right now but who knows.

15 Apr 2021 13:51:21
I read a while ago that even beforeNiko Kovac was hired, Naggelsman was who Bayern wanted since Klopp was out of the picture. Now if Flick takes the Germany job and Klopp stays at LFC which he will IMO then, they could look to him again.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - That is not their plan.}

He’s come out and said he would never leave Liverpool whilst under contract.

Agree2 Disagree0

BigVirg - that statement was probably made while assuming he's allowed to play more than 20 games a season with us rather than the expected 40-60.

After listening to the Blood Red Pod on Spotify, there's an episode dedicated to Camavinga. A year left on his contract this summer, would Liverpool be interested in putting in a bid?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed0666's Note - He is nailed on to go to Real Madrid by all accounts. Jonathon Barnett his agent has intimated that in many occasions.

15 Apr 2021 02:59:44
The same Jonathan Barnett who has slagged off Real Madrid and Zidane numerous times in the past over his other client Bale? These agents really have a cheek!

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed077's Note - yes sir/mam, same Jonathan Barnett.

15 Apr 2021 08:51:19
Go to real and lurk in the reserves/ get loaned for 6 years?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed077's Note - like Vinicius and Rodrygo? Oh wait they do feature in the first quite frequently...
In all seriousness, Camavinga will most likely end up replacing Modric or Kroos in the RM midfield if he moved there.

15 Apr 2021 13:53:02
Ed is correct. Canavinga is set for RM and has been for a couple of years now. PSG tried to take him and he even rejected them, I think.
