Hi eds great work on the site, read everyday
Was just wondering about some of the targets for the summer, I have noticed we are being linked with a number of centre backs with people statig we will be looking to bring in probably two. However I was just wondering if the loss of carrageenan and the likely loss of skrtel and Coates would not be a good opportunity to move Kelly and wisdom to their preferred position of centre back which would then give ha three centr backs with agger so surely just one more cb would be ideal and maybe sama to get a few games. I realise this would leave a little short at full back however with Robinson and mghaulin coming through, if we were going to sign two defenders I would personally sign a full back who could play both sides and a cb instead of two cb. Is there any chance of this? And if so do you know of any full backs we have shown interest in? However I do realise this would mean two inexperienced first team cb in the squad so maybe a more experienced cb than some of the young ones we have been linked with would be better, have we shown any interest in a more experienced cb?
Cheers
YNWA Alex {Ed002's Note - I would think one or two will arrive Alex and as you say, a chance given to the youngsters. I doubt any efforts will be made for a RB so if a FB is looked for it will likely be a specialist LB or LWB.}


So do you believe that wisdom or Kelly will continue to play at right back then?

Eds, what chance of Lukaku being available this summer?

JD {Ed002's Note - He won't be sold this year. Chelsea bought him for the long term.}


Pity he won, t be available, great player. Young, powerful and wants to succeed.

Barry H


He's going back to Chelsea.


Hi ed. Will de Byrne be sold in the summer. Is there any interest from other clubs. Thanks {Ed002's Note - There is no intention to sell De Bruyne but he has spoken with the club to say he wants to be starting regularly and not making cameos for the bench. I suspect it will be a matter for discussion with the new manager and if I had to speculate, perhaps another year on loan.}

I know this has been discussed on here before, but I was told at the weekend that Reina will definitely move to A. Madrid at the end of the season, and it will be announced before the last game to allow Reina to say goodbye. I wish him all the best, he was a great servant to the club.
The same guy that told me this believes we will offer Reina plus £10m for Arda Turan.

JD


Reina's worth 8-10 million mate even for his age so I would be angry if they offered 10million with it.


Not turan


That guy has lied to you, we won't be getting Turan.

Ed002 if pepe leaves do u see vorm as a possible replacement? {Ed002's Note - Perhaps but I am not aware of interest at this time.}


Not another Swansea player. Forster


Why the bloody hell do we want vorm when we have the best keeper in in the prem already.

Eds and reds,
How big is the summer transfer window going to be for Liverpool?
Will we see a vast amount of players coming in and coming out? {Ed001's Note - bit early to say yet, a lot will depend on outs, a lot will depend on where we finish. There will be a very busy transfer window, not so sure Liverpool will be one of the busiest, unless we lose someone for big money.}


Not Suarez.


When Suarez leaves for Bayern for 60m we'll reinvest that. 15m on Nathan Dyer. 15m on Ashley Williams. 15m on Scott Sinclair. 15m on Franco di Santo.

Hello people!

Anyone (Eds) know what is happening with Simon Kj�r? I know he had a fall out with Wolfsburg and got sent out on loan to Roma (I think?).
Has he been playing lately?
Is he back in Germany?
Is he tough enough to make it in the prem?

LeTrench {Ed002's Note - Magath has gone and he is playing but would like to move to Roma.}


I was under the impression that a series of costly mistakes whilst in Italy blew his chances of a move to Roma, might be wrong but it's what I heard - and some of his mistakes were real defensive howlers {Ed001's Note - every time I watch that lad he is truly awful. I have never understood the big deal about him at all.}


He is still at Wolfsberg, but looking to get out. Swansea had a look at him


He is rubbish as he always was. No pace or position sense. poor tackler and can't pass. makes paletta look good.

Hello Eds,
1. Could Frenando Reges be an option for summer? I know you mentioned we were interested a while back.
2. Also is our interest in Ben Aefa genuine and is he looking for a move? {Ed002's Note - Fernando would be an excellent, but expensive, buy. I would dout it. Newcastle are looking to have HBA sign a new deal. If he becomes available there will be plenty of interest. We will see nearer the summer.}


Thanks for the reply Ed.
Regarding Fernando, I heard somewhere his contract expires in 2014, surely they can't demand crazy money for him. {Ed002's Note - They can ask whatever they wish if they don't want to sell.}


We should try and get him. A good physical ball winner. We'd own with him and Lucas in midfield!

Crowman


Ben Arfa is nothing but trouble

Any chance of Illicic as Palermo are going to get relegated and are we looking at Kapino?


25 Feb 2013 16:27:29
If players from Palermo were an option, i'd love to see Abel Hernandez play for us. I didn't realise they were having such a poor season

Ed's can you confirm Rodgers attendance at the Feyenoord v PSV game on Sunday? and apart from De Vrijes who he could be mulling over.
Cheers,
Prendergel {Ed001's Note - sorry I have no idea.}


Mertens?


I can confirm he was there watching, no idea who he was looking at though


A web sites European reporter - believes it to be the centre half. Quoted as saying he is a "ball playing centre half" presumably a skrtel replacement. As its this side of things that let's him down.


It was on a web site today he was looking at the centre back. Days are numbered for Skirtel


There was many players Rodgers could of been looking at. most likely the 2 centre halves for Feyenoord, Bruno Martins-Indi and De Vrij, but he may have also looked at Jordy Clasie from Feyenoord and for PSV maybe Kevin Strootman, Jeremain Lens and of course Dries Mertens!


Rubbish Dutch players

eds do you think with BR links with chelsea that we could get courtois on loan next season. surely chelsea want him to adapt to the premier league as soon as possible? plus is there any more info about stefan de vrij? I heard BR attended 1 of his games and is he any good I don't know much about him? cheers lads

Cartylfc 95 {Ed002's Note - There is interest in De Vrij, I am not sure what you expect in terms of additional information. Rodgers working at Chelsea some years ago will not impact where Courtois goes on loan. I suspect that Liverpool will look for a permanent deal for a goalkeeper.}


I think it would be a good choice, but my only problem is he will not be able to play against Chelsea.


Forster from Celtic. Young. English.


Courtois went out on loan in the same month Chelsea bought him from Genk, Rodgers didn't work with him, he was only at Chelsea for 12 days before going to Atletico on loan for back to back seasons.

BCDI.

So everyone's saying Reina is leavening? I doubt it myself, BUT replacements? Well barca have Valdes and if they are the team who want him then maybe a swap? And I know this one is not going to happen but cassias because diego alves was bought in on a 4 and a half year deal and both of them are top keepers! And just a personal thought about a keeper is begovic he is a top keeper, thanks {Ed002's Note - Valdes is leaving Barcelona but their target is not Reina. They have had two bids for Courtois rejected and are now looking to complete a deal for ter Stegen in the summer. There is interest in Reina from Atletico Madrid.}


I think unleavened is a better way to describe some of his performances -he's been flat all season!


Wise up you he's a Liverpool legend no matter what


What was there offer ed?
thanks {Ed002's Note - The offers were rejected, it is unimportant.}


Fraser Forster from Celtic.

Is there any interest from Liverpool for Malaga's Isco & will Andy Caroll stay or leave in summer?
Cheers {Ed002's Note - Not in Isco. CArroll will almost certainly leave.}


If Rodgers is sacked. Carroll in
