John Barnes still thinks we'll sign texeira according to some reports. Eds say no, I know who I'm backing to be right.

31 Jan 2016 20:22:06
Not a chance of signing Teixeira. I really don't think we will sign anyone before the window shuts.

31 Jan 2016 21:15:17
Aaw the interview, pretty sure he said he hopes we will sign him, but he wouldn't be involved in it anyway, it was just opinion.

31 Jan 2016 21:36:00
Dont think we could get the deal in time and wouldn't he have to do a medical injured, is that possible? Would like it if we had him but i'm not holding my breath.

Reports are saying we will go back in the summer but that was also said about konoplayanka.

It's definitely possible to do a medical whilst the player is injured, it's usually just a testing of the overall health, making sure they don't have any heart conditions etc that could cut short their career.

Looks like this alex teixeira saga is going to drag on the whole day. A few media outlets report LFC haven't given up on signing him.

01 Feb 2016 00:20:09
Maybe just the media playing to create some excitement on deadline day?

01 Feb 2016 01:08:54
Eds has dorext to Ian arye but John Barnes has dorect line to Henry. Its a difficult choice really.

{Ed001's Note - Digger doesn't have any kind of line to John Henry.}

01 Feb 2016 08:13:21
You post some weird comments Lee! One of the conspirators ed002 is always on about ;)

01 Feb 2016 11:06:06
Digger does not have a direct line to Henry and I doubt Henry would have any input to the transfer, others will be handling it.
As for a medical on a record signing injured striker on deadline day - well we've been there before 😡.

We should walk away from this, we have enough injuries.

Any news on Slimani? I think he is great and woukd love him in the red shirt.

Everton bidding for a foward in the russian league, Niasse, now so maby they moved on and the reds stept in?

YNWA.

{Ed001's Note - nope.}

31 Jan 2016 16:27:49
Too bad. Thanks for yout answer!

31 Jan 2016 14:08:14
Hello eds
Do you expect us to get atleast one deal before the deadline day?
I suppose we won't be negotiating with shakhtar gor teixeira now. Have we further looked out for somone on a loan deal?
Berahinho maybe.

Thankyou.

{Ed001's Note - no I don't expect anything, especially not a deal for Berahino.}

Could be a defining moment of the season this. we're desparate for someone to put the ball in the back of the net, just think that signing a goalscorer now could well be what gets us into 4th place or a win in the Europa League.

A gamble I know but the CL entry would (simplistically) help pay for it.

Appreciate all the other concerns about our finances but it's clear to all observers that goals are needed.

31 Jan 2016 16:12:44
Looks like Newcastle are desperate enough to pay 20+ million.

31 Jan 2016 19:18:32
Sign Andy Murray NOW!

He's been hitting the net well recently.

I may be risking the wrath of ed 002 for mentioning random names but I saw a small report from a Spanish journalist that Denis cherishev is likely to move to the PL imminently. Probably has nothing to do with Liverpool and I thought villereal and Valencia were more likely but thought it was worth a mention.

{Ed002's Note - No problem as Liverpool is one of the clubs that has been approached to see if they would be interested in sharing some of their English Pounds that players find so attractive nowadays. Real Madrid are now very keen to start recouping money from sales and removing players from the wage bill in preparation for their coming spending spree. Denis Cheryshev's agent has the remit to find a new club as only Villareal has been showing an interest and they don't have the wealth of the English sides. He has been touting the player around and has approached a number of English sides - starting with Arsenal. Subsequently there have been approaches to Chelsea, Stoke, Spurs and Liverpool to gauge any interest about a move in January. Certainly something can be done if a club were to move very quickly - if Liverpool has the money and are up for a knee-jerk reaction and an impulse buy then sure, it could happen. If they want to stay within the confines of what they have been looking at and not spend just for the sake of it, then it is less likely.}

There's no point spending for the sake of it and I see nothing in Cheryshev that warrants spending money on him. I'd rather save the money and use it on a player who will actually make a difference.

31 Jan 2016 12:20:18
I agree and I would have thought a pl club would have bitten by now if he were in any way worth the money Real Madrid are looking for. Apparently Stoke are looking at yarmelenko so they might not be a bad shout.

31 Jan 2016 14:11:08
Is he any good? Where does he play and how would he fit in?
