Eds any interest from any clubs in chadli (spelling) the Belgium lad from twente, seems like a decent little prospect. ? Cheers. {Ed002's Note - Surem but not Liverpool.}

eds, can you see any situation where Rodgers would decide to leave Liverpool to take over at city?
I personally would be surprised to see it happen and I'm still skeptical about the whole thing and suspect Rafas agent has come up with this in an effort to get him back to Liverpool {Ed002's Note - See earlier answers.}


God forbid Rafa coming back.

Hi Eds,

Macca has confirmed that BR is on Man City's manager shortlist. Do you see any chance that he will leave considering he just arrive here last year? Hope not because I'm sure most fans really trust him. YNWA

Thanks. {Ed002's Note - Manchester City has enquired after the availability of a number of managers that I am aware of but I am not aware what that are considering regarding Rodgers. I would think it highly unlikely that Rodgers would opt to leave Liverpool for Manchester City of his own accord. Perhaps Macca could comment?}


Ed002 do u think there is a chance of the owners pushing rodgers out of the door if city are interested? {Ed002's Note - IF they want rid it won't be related to MCFC.}


Considering how some people who call themselves fans talk about him I wouldn't be shocked if he took the first bus out of town for a decent offer. Would be upset if he did though

Just goes to show that the people who know about football rate him as a manager.

Hi Ed's,

Just been watching a few videos of Eduardo Salvio of Benfica. He has scored 10 league goals with 8 assists this season.

He's only 22 and plays on the right wing.

Obviously you don't get see much from youtube videos so I was wondering if he has the potential to become a quality player? And have Liverpool shown any interest in him?

Thanks in advance!

Red Lee {Ed002's Note - A bunch is expected of Salvio. And Liverpool is not knocking on the door.}


Looks quality but the Portuguese league always makes wingers look good- Ronaldo and Hulk are the only two out of hundreds to actually perform abroad, too.

Hey eds. Is there any interest by Liverpool in Diego Capel & Marco Verrati?
I would be very grateful if u specify which PLAYERS are Liverpool after?We know a Cb is the main priority but even our midfield & attack needs to be strengthened to compete for EPL title in next few seasons. thanks :) {Ed002's Note - We do what we can but are not going to give lists - it is simply not viable and does nothing but cause grief.

Marseille, Swansea and Braga have shown an interest Diego Capel whow will likely be available after what has been a pretty torid time this season - although Marseille have no found another withe player to step in for Ayew. His agent has been instructed by Sporting to find him a new club with an asking price in the region of €6M. His agent has spoken with a number of clubs in England, including Spurs, Liverpool, West Ham and Sunderland.

Marco Verratti's move to PSG in the summer was unexpected as all indications were for a move to Juventus. If he were available in the summer there would be plenty of clubs interested, not least his most likely destination Juventus. Don't hold your breath.}

Hi Ed's I know you have answerd this already but is there any truth in this quatar (spelling) take over? How would it effect our summer spending if true? {Ed002's Note - It terms of classic posts, starting "I know you have answered this already ..." takes the biscuit.}


 

 

28 Apr 2013 18:18:34
Hi Ed/s,
what is the situation with Borini? I am glad he has recovered but is he going to get another year at us, or heading back home? I heard Fiorentina are interested to take him this summer. Thanx.
GALF {Ed002's Note - There is no situation with Borini as far as I a aware. A number of fans took exception to him not scoring whilst out injured. Fiorentina have other targets.}


Thats a great line "number of fans took exception to him not scoring whilst he was out injured"


Ed002, quality reply, so dry in your humour. Exception to him not scoring whilst out injured, simple yet true. Too many feckless fools who judge a man on his first 3 games in a foreign league with his new team. The majority of our fans are smart enough to know football, some i'm afraid will not have such.
This is not a dig at the original poster, GALF, not by any means, his post was valid, but a dig at those the editor was referring to!

hye eds.
earlier this season, Liverpool were linked with son heung min.
do you think Liverpool will try again for him next transfer window?
thanks eds. {Ed002's Note - A number of clubs have been looking at Hamburg's Heung Min Son for the past year. Certainly Spurs, Liverpool, Arsenal, Sunderland, Lille and West Ham have had him watched on more than one occasion leading up to the end of last year and Spurs had a bid turned down in January. Since the New Year some interest has been shown by Dortmund, Manchester United, CSKA Moscow and Chelsea, who would ideally look to a deal that sees a player included as part of an offer. Hamburg would like to keep him but I expect him to move in the summer, but a move to Chelsea or Manchester United could see him sat on the bench and that may not be what he wants. Dortmund or Spurs might be the best compromise for him but a recent enquiry from Dortmund has seen a much higher asking price than expected put on the player.}


Watched this guy play really well in the ITV4 bundesliga coverage. He looked quality but everyone else has recognised his ability as well hence a player in demand and increased price. As per my post yesterday, it's time out scouts earned their wages. Let's uncover some quality rather than buying it when at a premium.

Hi eds. great website before I start. gr8 wrk by all u guys. just wanted your thoughts on whether or nt u think andy carroll will come back to us in the summer. seems to be playin realy well for west ham and would surely give us a different dimension up front if luis was to leave. also do you think there is any truth in the loic remy rumours in todays papers. looks a good player. any feedback would be great. keep up the gr8 wrk. ynwa1987phil {Ed002's Note - The club, in my view, will look to unload hime for what ever they can get.}


 

 

28 Apr 2013 15:19:53
Ed002, I read your comment earlier that Jackson Martinez and James Rodriguez are available.
So if we were to sell Suarez for enough to afford Rodriguez, do you see that the player would even consider LFC as an option?
With where the club is, wouldn't it prove mission impossible enticing a footballer of this caliber?
Same goes for the likes of Gundogan, Sanchez, Eriksen and De Vrij.

Sanchez I've seen you mention as a potential Suarez replacement. Is there really a chance here, what with our lack of champions league?
Exactly how much of a deal breaker is the champions league?

Would appreciate your views on this subject.
Thanks. {Ed002's Note - The problem is that you are ignoring lack of interest in the player which makes the question near impossible to answer. Sanchez is the subject of discussion between other clubs already - the others are a mix of no interest, interest in/from elsewhere and cost.}

Ed's do you know what is happening with Spearing next year? He was named Boltons player of the year by their supporters association. Maybe he could be backup for lucas?
Manno {Ed002's Note - I would think he will talk to BR and the coaching staff and look to see what other options are available.}


We should sell him for what ever we can get for him, he might be ok in the championship but in the prem gives the ball away far to easy


If we continually talk about players of the level of spearing being back up we will not move forwards. he for one has had ample oppotunities and has proved to be at a significantly lower level that which we require. he had his chance and was simply not good enough. it doesn't matter whether he is local he is not good enough.

Shelvey, henderson are better than him. if we want to blood anyone do it with coady

Hey eds, any interest in Federico Fazio? And also, do you think Rodgers may be tempted to take up the vacant Man City job when Mancini is sacked? {Ed002's Note - Spartak Moscow, Zenit and Hoffenhiem have spoken with Sevilla about Fazio but suggestions that Hamburg has shown an interest are wide of the mark. He has also been watched by a number of EPL clubs but none has approached Seville just yet.}


 

 

28 Apr 2013 14:01:55
ooh what if newcastle got relegated cabaye would be a good signing

Hey eds Remy to LFC possible? {Ed002's Note - Try the search function.}


That wouldn't happen! Cabaye I mean!


 

 

28 Apr 2013 12:20:34
Hello Eds,
are we actually interested in Alberto Botia?
also any interest in any young GK's? not to replace Pepe but to replace Jones. {Ed002's Note - Botia is not out of the question in respect of interest. I am not aware of young goalkeepers being looked at and don't see Brad Jones leaving this summer.}


 

 

28 Apr 2013 09:34:46
Morning EDs fellow reds, jus more a query for EDs001 have you heard anythin about Carroll purchasing a house in southport? A few Internet/paper rumours flyin round sayin he getting another chance (I assume due to Suarez ban) in your opinion are we planning for life without luis?
Cheers m8 {Ed001's Note - I have heard nothing regarding him buying a house, though I fail to see how it would be related to anything like that. It is not like he can't afford to buy another one elsewhere to live in, ask God! The club will have plans in place for what to do with or without Suarez anyway, the only time that becomes an issue is when the deal happens last second, such as when Torres went. In my opinion, no decision has been made as to what will happen, I expect both sell and keep possibilities to be explored in the summer, with the club having a look at what they could get for him, before deciding whether to keep him.}


Cheers for the update EDs001, jus hope we can keep hold of luis a magician of a player & believe he would b sorely missed if he were 2 go. Don't know bout you or any other reds but I can see real progress under BR at the minute, the amount of ' TEAM ' goals scored this season & sum of the football we playin been exceptional at times, I know might got a lot of people sayin we stil 7th & not particularly done well in cups but think if we could keep Suarez add maybe another creative part up top either winger or no10 as they seem 2 b called at the minute, with a good group of youngsters comin through then top 4 next season very achievable then who knows from then, u agree ed?

Hey eds, not a fantasy manager manager post, just a question. Not asking if he'll join, because I can't see it happening. Do you think Liverpool will put in a bid for Neymar this summer if Luis leaves since he wants to play in Europe now, and most clubs with the money will put a bid in knowing they probably don't have a chance. If the player isn't after instant succes, and wants a real challenge, and maybe even loyalty to a club that he knows he was part of getting them back to the top, we might fit the deal with other brizilians in the squad, and a strong base of latin players, and a manager that plays free flowing attacking football that suits him. I can't see him fitting into any other English club than us, or maybe Chelsea with ther other Brazilians. But he probably is after instant success with the likes of Barcelona or Madrid Aha! :) Thanks if this post is replied to!

JFT96 YNWA {Ed002's Note - No, Liverpool will not be making a bid for Neymar this summer.}


I wouldn't want to put a bid in for hin anyway, everytime I've seen him on international duty facing european defenders he's been rubbish, G Johnson had him in his pocket against England


This page is turning into a joke page with questions like that, how can anyone be so deluded to think neymar would ever consider joining a mid table team without even europa league football to offer, jokers


Agree with last post, who r these muppets who ask about the likes of neymar, cavani etc. we need players who want to be part of a philosophy and a journey and those players aren't going to be superstar signing for 50mill.

Or any summer.

Hi ed002.
Hope all is well.
Thanks for your time and hard work with the site.

Wanted to ask your opinion on shelvey.
Whether you think he'll make it next season in the first team.

Bty. how many hours a week do you dedicate to the site. it must be a lot. just curious, don't worry i'm not from the benefits office! Haha

{Ed002's Note - JonJonJo will look to the options available to him in the summer before making a decision. I am invariably doing something else (what one might consider proper work) whilst keeping an eye on teh site, so not too much actual dedication.}


If Shelvey does it will indicate that our once great club had truly embraced mid table mediocrity.

Eds, any news on dede? The club says that he has to be sold in the summer and Liverpool and Man U are the main contenders for his signature {Ed002's Note - Someone is teasing you. Sorry.}


{Ed002's Note - Well D Kearns, you are a nasty little scab. It remains a great pity your father wasn't a w*nker like you.}


 

 

28 Apr 2013 10:29:41
Morning Ed002 hope your well? Out with mates last night and over heard conversation about prem teams looking at a midfielder called Axl Fritzl (please forgive spelling) do you know or heard anything? I'm sure its b******* the bloke looked like he was 1 step away from the yellow submarinne ;-)
Thanks for your time and take care. {Ed002's Note - I really don't expect Axel Witsel to be moving to Liverpool this summer.}


 

 

28 Apr 2013 09:16:38
Moussa Kanote or Viktor Fischer? {Ed002's Note - There has been no interest shown in Konate by Liverpool at this time. Viktor Fischer is subject to interest from Milan, Manchester United, Manchester City, Hamburg and Werder Bremen. Ajax is negotiating a new contract with him and I would not expect a move in the summer.}


Fischer looks a cracker.

28 Apr 2013 08:46:58
Hmmm, interesting one this morning. Loic Remy being linked with LFC for £8mill. Any idea on this one Ed002? It would be good to hear opinions on him too. Personally I see him as a bit one dimensional, but maybe that's what we need?

BaldyRed {Ed002's Note - Probably no more than idle speculation right now.}


 

 

28 Apr 2013 08:36:44
Hi eds, would Isco come to Liverpool? Thanks LFC13 {Ed002's Note - Isco won't be moving to Liverpool.}


28 Apr 2013 10:22:56
He wouldn't want to warm the bench waiting for Coutinho to be substituted and I find it difficult seeing them play together because they are so alike.


 

 

28 Apr 2013 07:46:12
Do you know of any interest on the Leeds boy Lewis Walters? {Ed002's Note - I can't help, sorry.}


The same Lewis Walters that just signed his first ever contract about 2 weeks ago? He's an ex Harrogate High School pupil and we here all wish him the best of luck in his footballing career. Wherever that career may take him.


 

 

28 Apr 2013 00:18:55
Hi Ed02 is it true that Spurs has offered 10mil + Danny Rose for Carroll? In my opinion if true we should just take it. {Ed002's Note - I really don't know.}


I'd take 13m + Rose


I'd rather just cash to be honest.


If true take the 10 mill and rose this lad has had a great season and he would provide great options on the left. unfortunately I can't see this being true. But if it was I would jump at the chance gives great competition to Enrique and I would loan Robinson out for a full season to a Bolton or Wigan team for games.


 

 

27 Apr 2013 23:53:23
Are Liverpool Interested in Ben Arfa? If so, is there a decent chance that he could make his way to Liverpool? {Ed002's Note - I would not hold your breath.}
