What do the ed's reckon will happen to the young Wilson lad? {Ed001's Note - I expect him to be sold or loaned out.}


Wasn't he recommended by Kenny, apparently he rates him pretty highly


But he's young and british... he must be bloody awful then for KK to not want to keep him!!


 

 

04 May 2012 21:49:46
Eds, are we or any other teams looking at Brugge striker Joseph Akpala? I've heard that he is havin a good season. {Ed001's Note - no idea sorry.}


Lol... he's barely good enough for a championship team :p


 

 

04 May 2012 19:18:28
hi eds, enjoy reading ur site, keep it up... Do u guys know if liverpool maintain interrest in milan badelj, or did the scouts find anything they didnt like? I feel he could take the pl good, he is very good allrounder and always play with his heart... Have a great weekend

cheers {Ed001's Note - there is defo interest there still.}


 

 

04 May 2012 21:55:24
Hi Ed's great job on the site,just a question for macca if he's around.is there any interest in these la liga based players
Lass diarra
Ever benega
Marco Ruben
Nilmar
All would be fantastic signings in my opinion and would really strengthen the team.
Cheers
Growler


Yes they would be fantastic but they are more dream team then reality my friend.


Diarra is available,banega was available last summer,nilmar was almost sold in January and will be available in the summer as will marco Ruben due to Villarreals financial difficulties.a maximum of 10 per player


 

 

04 May 2012 17:43:00
Hi eds, can you tell me if we're gonna get Seydou Keita? {Ed001's Note - I really don't see it happening, I am not sure where the link has come from.}


 

 

04 May 2012 16:43:04
Any interest in Kuzmanovic or Dzagoev eds?

{Ed001's Note - no idea sorry.}

Ed001 legend {Ed001's Note - sorry it took me a while to get round to it, I was trying to find out some of the don't knows.}


Best post in a while...best answer in a while, be chuffed with 2 or 3 of those of which we have interest in.

LiamCS


Wow ed001 being very generous here giving so many yes. Most people don't understand what yes means. I bet most people are gonna come in and say we will buy them ... {Ed001's Note - yeah I did wonder if I should point out that an interest is a long way removed from meaning we will even bid for them, let alone buy them! I probably should have on reflection.}


Respect for ed001 :) giving so much time for this..but i thought everyone was saying we are REALLY interested in hoilett coz he's premier league proven and would be free.. {Ed001's Note - not as far as I am aware.}


Only Elm


Absolute Gent

GuvTOB


I think it is very likely that we will sign 2 or 3 of these players. Note that several of these players will cost between 10-25 mil so we can't expect to sign too many


How about Nuri Åžahin? {Ed022's Note - Not that I know of.}


Holy crap....! So many yesssssss)..! Hopefully 5 of those intrests change into transfers..!

Amen!

EDS can you please post this for all LFC fans going on about Dempsey. He will not be coming to LFC he will be going to Arsenal (FACT) Wenger sees Dempsey in the Bedner role (spelling). Also given the choice Arsenal has more appeal to Dempsey due to location and CL football. This info comes from a freind of mine living in London and is usually quite reliable.

Elmo 96

LFC Forever


If your friend is only "usually quite reliable" then you cannot claim that your statement is fact!


What´s the Bendtner role? Sitting on the bench complaining? {Ed022's Note - No, being a hero.}


 

 

04 May 2012 21:36:11
Confirmed by the official LFC twitter account, Home KIt will be released on Friday 11th May @ 00:01

GuvTOB


Fantastic,thank you so much for the info mate..YNWA!!


Not released, revealed, pre orders the 11 may, launch of kit 1st of June


That's the deadline for my dissertation paper... something to reward myself with!!


 

 

04 May 2012 20:18:01
Ive herd we may get Dempsey to sell more shirts an merchandise in USA. Speculate to accumulate.


He would certainly spearhead our American marketing effort.

Over here, he is considered by many to be the best American outfield player ever.


Not gonna happen


That makes no sense whatsoever. If that were true, there would be more Fulham fans running around in the US, no? Given I've never met one here...

RDL


I've heard rumours along similar lines. I was told that Dempsey is seen as a target, due to his great goal return this season of 13 goals. As well as a potential image repair in the USA, after the publicity LFC gained from the Suarez-Evra affair. Make of it what you will.

Lee Wickham JFT96 YNWA


Is he retiring to go into retail sales,he cud be scanning my next purchase at the club shop,nice 1 thx for the tipoff


How many times is this rubbish going to be posted.


 

 

04 May 2012 20:17:50
Macca please answer,
Do you think Muniain is still our top target?


He didn't say he was, he said he was a back up option


Don't think he ever was or is.


If hes a backup option,the 1st option must be something else


 

 

04 May 2012 15:59:54
eds whats the situation on:
1.gourcuff
2.pato
3.ozil
4.thomas muller
5.nuri sahin
6.di maria
7.jovetic
8.guiseppe rossi
9.Luc Castaignos
any realistic signings among them? {Ed001's Note - 1. no 2. seriously? He is not very good and always injured, there is no interest. 3. I wish. 4. I wish. 5. possible, he is likely to leave Madrid in the summer. 6. no, City have him as their first choice target. 7. don't know 8. injured again, out for 10 months with a second ACL injury. 9. we did try and get him, it fell through, he can't be ruled out.}


Ed do you really think sahin is a possible signing? I think he would be perfect {Ed001's Note - only possible.}


I would gladly organise a kidnapping operation for Mesut Ozil

(and J Hernandez but shhh.)


Only Ozil out of that list.


Thomas muller WOW, i wish too, what an amazing player.
cobra


Haha sahin myt join the rest of them wont play europa league fuk sake pool fans are dreamers big time haha


 

 

04 May 2012 19:47:35
Just heard from david ngoo he says liverpool are only looking to sign 1 or 2 signings, perhaps marquees.


Who is david ngoo?

billynwa


Am i being stupid is it not david amoo and michael ngoo?

billynwa


Dodgy Rumours anyone?


David nggo? no such person


David N'Gog or Michael Ngoo? LOL


Funny that you should mention David Ngoo because I heard the same from Michael N'gog.
Lmfao :)


What do we want with two big tents. {Ed001's Note - cheaper than hotel stays on away days.}


Im sorry everyone is getting on at me but david ngoo is a sports columnist for daily mail.


Could be david amoo


Why would he know anyway? Is he our new DoF?


2 Marquees? Does that mean we are getting a couple of big tents instead of a new stadium?


 

 

04 May 2012 18:46:59
My friends Dad knows Mick McCarthy reletively well and Mick said Liverpool wanted Fletcher in Jan but Wolves wanted 10 Million. A bid of 5 million is expected to be enough to secure his services this summer.


Probably true.


I'm not mates with mick but can say that no bid will be made cos Liverpool have no interest in the player, stop the nonsense


We wouldn't be a bad signing for 5 m however at talk more to Wolves about Jarvis


Good mate of mine actually watched the manchester derby with mick mcarthy the other day, no mention of it


 

 

04 May 2012 17:07:59
heard from a close pal that works at liverpool academy hes heard that kenny has been given the green light to spend an off load who he dosent wont an hes been told that theres money there for his targets an hes heard that the lukk de jong deal has an agreement in place so good to me what do you think edds


Don't know about you, Eds, but I've no idea what he's asking!

Is it in Klingon, perhaps?

Mrpjd


Why you asking what the edds think if you already know from your close pal...


You should have some capital letters and full stops for your transfer targets.


 

 

04 May 2012 17:04:09
New manager will be Unai Emery.
Dalglish will move upstairs
Soldado and belhanda will be the only 2 signings.
Reina, Johnson, downing, Henderson,maxi, Adam and Carroll will all stay.
Kuyt, cole, Pacheco, aquilani, aurelio and Doni will leave

Lee the red


According to Greek journalists Emery requested more time from olympiacos board because he is waiting for a proposal from a Premier League club.


I though Daglish Lived in a Bungalow :L


Finally, Lee the Red has told what is going to happen so no need for anyone to put up any more posts until the beginning of new season when we can look forward to Emery & Co.


Posts like this make me laugh, not only do you claim to know who the next manager is...but you know who he is going to sign...and who he is going to get rid of before he has even stepped foot in England. This is not a rumour, it's just something you made up because you were bored.


Thought emery and soldado dont see eye to eye at valencia,hardly likely to bring him to liverpool with him


It will be the same players in and out no matter who the manager is. Lenny will be the new DOF and these are his options.

Lee the red


 

 

04 May 2012 16:28:29
Any liverpool interest in dempsey and bryn morris, the 'starlet' from boro


Dempsey wants to test himself at a big club so expect so expect spurs and arsenal to be the main contenders


 

 

04 May 2012 16:18:53
there is rumours that younes belhanda has recently been scouted by Pedro Campos (rafa benitez chief scout in recent years at liverpool and inter milan) im not saying rafa is going back to liverpool as manager or DOF just wondering if it means he will be back in management next season if the rumours of his chief scout at montpellier games are true ?


So you think this chief scout only works with rafa


Younes belhanda has everything you
want,skill,pace,creativity,trickery,
everything rafa dislikes.......


 

 

04 May 2012 15:51:14
people saying we are gonna sign clint dempsey for around ten million quid wtf is going on? he is ok at best and nearly 30 years of age, if he was on a free or 2 million at the most then fine, but no wonder we are fifty million quid down last season if players like him are gonna be signed for ludicrous amounts
cobra


Hes not gonna be signed don't let these rumors suggest that he is its all at this point speculation and the owners have clearly stated they want younger players in the club why suddenly change their minds? unlikely!


Dempsey won't be signed


Not going to happen.


We are so short of goals he is probably worth triple that to us. He would be an excellent buy at about 8m. He might be about 30 but looks a good 30, he will have a few years left in him yet.

MIKEY


I don't know where this 10 million figure comes from.

Dempsey is in last year of contract. If he wants to leave, Fulham have to take whatever they are offered.


He's a free transfer


You are right buy susaeta Ramirez Munian Lukk de Jong players who have massive potential and if they fail which I really doubt they do have resale value


I don't agree with anything you just said Mikey. There is nothing to suggest that Dempsey's season was anything more than a flash in the pan and I am sure that they have learnt there lesson buying such players. This will not happen.

DW9


The 50 million was to do with the cowboys and there stadium plans nothin to do withplayers quit whinging


I wish some people on here would take the blinkers off!
What have we been watching all season?
Henderson has one goal, downing two, Adam a couple, we have not scored goals from midfield at all.
Dempsey has regularly scored goals every season from midfield and can also play up front when required, yes he's 30 but then bellamy is older than this, if we could get two or three good seasons out of someone who ha hardly missed a game in last few seasons for fulham would be a great buy.

10 million a bit pricey but we are crying out for more goals from midfield and anyone saying he isn't an improvement on what we have needs their head looked at.
We are an average side and one of the best performers in the premier league would improve us big time.

Hi Eds,
I got these news from a friend of mine who works at Melwood as a photographer.

Probable INS:
-Luuk DE JONG.
-Rasmus ELM.
-Younes BELHANDA.
-Gaston RAMIREZ.
-A right-back.[for back-up of G.Johnson because Kelly is moving into central def. position for next season]. who he's yet to know.
From loan spell and reserve team:
-Wilson.
-Gulacsi.
-Sterling.
-Suso.
Probable OUTS:
AQUILANI.
COLE.
CARROLL.(loan).
SPEARING.(loan).
SHELVEY.(loan).
ROBINSON.(loan).
ADAM.
AURÉLIO.
KUYT.
MAXI.
DONI.

Don't be astonished if Kenny stays and Steve Clarke goes.
The DOF will be announced at the end of the season.
Also G.Johnson may stay.

Thx,mate!


Nice one on an actual "heard of someone" rumour... forgot this was a rumour site


You wouldnt need to be anything to do with liverpool to put this rumour up its hardly breaking news is it.


Ins and outs are nothing spectacular, many have been saying the same for weeks.
The one thing different about this post is the suggestion that Steve Clarke might go.One thing for sure something has to change with the management team.


Out of curiosity why would Steve Clarke leave


So your photographer friend just comes on here and lists the most talked about names then ?

JP


Those photographers are always in the know about transfers


What's this about me moving into the centre? anything else I should know!!

M.Kelly


Actually pretty believable except for the carroll loan and adam to go because i dont see either of them happening after they were singed after 1 season


You've said a lot without actually saying anything. Your photographer "friend" has just regurgitated everything from the last 4 months.


What's the point of sending these players on loan? I just don't get it. If they're not good enough they should be sold. Are they really going to improve that much?


Look at how much the likes of Sturridge, Wilshere and Miyachi have improved by going out on loan


My mate's a photographer at melwood,stands on his bike up against the wall,takes pics with his phone camera,he asn't got a clue who's in or out


Kelly is a good replacement for Carra
But stop talking nonsense about Carroll, Spearing, Shelvey goin out on loan. And Adam leavin


 

 

04 May 2012 15:32:32
Valencia Plaza have linked Unai Emery with a move to Liverpool in the summer.If Kenny was to step down I could see Emery being the guy to make us tick.


What has he done rafa back please.


Like he made valencia tick? Get off the bung, fella.


I think he's done a fantastic job with Valencia considering the financial restrictions.


Emery should finish 3rd for the 3rd yr running. Considering the 2 teams above them and the sale of his best players.He has done a fantastic job.


Thats the same two clubs that rafa took on and beat to the title twice.


In very different circumstances, Real and Barca werent anything like the teams they are now


 

 

04 May 2012 15:46:50
Contrary to rumours circulating Liverpool are not trying to sign someone from Holland pronounced "De Long" but rather Nigel De Jong from Man. City.
Regards.


What is your source? It seems we are more likely to be looking for Luuk De Jong then Nigel boy here... Were did you get this information that were not going after a striker if you have a credible source for this state it.


You are obviously referring to Luuk de Jong and you are wrong.


Negatori


 

 

04 May 2012 14:38:54
Some people on here are incorrectly specualting that as Kagawa is a little unsettled he will be coming to Liverpool. I did state back in december when people thought we would buy him that he would not go anywhere until summer to repay the faith shown in him by the dortmund management.

This was proven true, I now know from a friend in Japanese media with access to many of the national team, that he is looking at moving in the summer and his preferred destination is england. He would like to go to Utd as he feels that he will get plenty of chances there and will not just be a bench warmer due to their lack of options in central midfield. He doesnt feel that he would get opportunities at liverpool and so will not be coming.

Nevada


Shouldnt this be on United wall then not Liverpool. Also you say chance at United... dont make me laugh they brough back scholes and giggs will probably cary on then there the whole youngster coming through


To be proven true the transfer must 1st go through


United's main midfield target is Modric. Has been for a couple of years.

Kagawa? He will have to decide if he fits in that scenario.


That sounds somewhat absurd when you read it. He is an attacking midfielder, whether played centrally or wide not a regular CM. The only probable reasons he would prefer to go to United are for trophies, champions league and money, not because he thinks he would get more chances.


Are you crazy he would start week in week out in our midfield its that bad hes miles better than adam spearing and henderson


Nevada mate, do you know anything about Ramirez being a possibility?

Adam


U lot are comical why would he go to Liverpool when utd are interested fighting for the league or top 10 team haha exactly


Why? It pains you so much united are not winning any silverware this season?

Get well soon, mate.


 

 

04 May 2012 13:25:20
I'm hoping we land the following for next season. I think they are realistic

R.Elm (8 million)
O.Giroud(15-20 million)
C.Dempsey(10 million)

I'm hoping we will sell the following players...
F.Aurelio
C.Adam
J.Spearing
M.Rodriguez
D.Kuyt
A.Aquilani
J.Cole


We need more than 3 players


No way will Liverpool be stupid enough to pay 10 mil for a 30 year old


Sad to see dirk go but prob best all round because unlike some at the club he wouldnt sit on bench happily and collect his wages.


Wny are you hoping we sign Elm, have you seen him play? Or are you just going to list people we are linked with... heres an idea give us your opinion not someone elses..


Wouldn't want any of them


Who's going to buy Cole.


Lille or a London club? Agreed on the players to be sold.


Lille are going to buy cole.


I doubt we will sign dempsy or giroud. Alsoi hope we sign more than 3 players


Why Spearing he is a good young local player who in time will become a great player


Unrealistic we would b way 2 short on numbers


 

 

04 May 2012 13:18:43
The luke de jong rumours does excite me I think he will be a top class signing along with adam johnson roll on the summer in kenny we trust!!


Like you said rumours

This means that most likely not true so keeping hoping my friend


2 team changers


Adam Johnson no. I'd have Gaston Ramirez, Markel Susaeta or Ibrahim Afellay before Johnson any day of the week.


Be careful what you wish for. we all said this last year and look at some of the muppets we got in


Don't rate Luuk De Jong at all tbh would much prefer Soldado or Falcao.


De jong 12m
Soldado 28m
Falcao 35m+
Do you see?


 

 

04 May 2012 11:45:27
Eds?

With Sochaux looking likely to be relegated this season do you think we could make a move for Ryad Boudebouz?

Fantastic creative player who would do us the world of good :) {Ed002's Note - I would not look to link a move to relegation as Sochaux will likely lose him, Marvin Martin and possibly Maiga as well. Liverpool could well make a move for the player but there will be intrest from elsewhere.}


Marvin would really be a great addition, yet I don't know if he is fast enough. We really lack pace in midfield, he is a great passer (most assists of last seasons Ligue 1 players) but pace?

Marc


 

 

04 May 2012 13:07:37
what are our chances to get Olivier Giroud, he is very very skilled


Hes in the bag


I haven't seen him play other than a bit on You Tube and read about him however, is he not another big target man - strong, good in the air with a neat left foot? Ring any bells? Not sure it's what we need..............

Ed. Are Adam Johnson and Nigel De Jong possibilites this summer in your opinion? {Ed001's Note - not in my opinion.}


 

 

04 May 2012 10:59:53
heard a strong rumour today that LFC are trying to get 2 deals done once the season is over..... Clint Demsey from fulham (£5M + Joe Cole) and victor moses!
REDMAN


£5M + Cole?!? You having a laugh! Dempsey isnt that much younger than Joe Cole himself!


Seriously, you told Rubbish as the only reason we are being linked with Dempsey is because some Journo asked Werner if he thought Dempsey was any good and Werner said he is a fantastic player any team would be happy to have me. That doesnt mean we are going to buy him. so stop putting your fantasy league up as lets be honest you have no clue


We'll see come the summer, dempsey will be looking to leave fulham this summer and alot of the top english sides will have an eye on the situation. liverpool will be the first to act and seal the deal before anyone. (ive not even seen or heard the interview with werner, if it was my fantasy team neither would be being mentioned).


I don't know why anyone would want to sign victor moses?!


Hes am ageing player? the owners may say hes a great player but they probably will have no interest in such an old player how many years will we get out of him? He is not in anyway a long term solution.


God I hope not, neither are of the quality required.

Sad to say it, but if this is Kenny's choice of player close season, then he has to go......

ConnorsLFC


Whose going to pay Coles wages.
Shifting Cole is going to prove far harder than people realise.
I wouldn't be surprised if he is still with us next season.


That's 3. Nathan Redman is an interesting shout though.


No chance


 

 

04 May 2012 10:07:50
Can't wait Luuke de Jong will defo sign for us this season good player young scores a lot goals


Don't get your hopes up seeing as he has offers from 15 other clubs and some of them are in the champions league. We just have to hope he does come but at this stage sounds unlikely.


Just because he scores goals in the dutch league does not mean he will score here. Take Suarez for example, 49 goals in his last season at Ajax.

I'm not discrediting either player, what I'm saying is don't get all excited and think they'll be the be all and end all.

100%Cotton


Also kind of depends what kind of support the strikers get and lets be honest what support has Suarez really got we finally see him come to life when Gerrard is around but lets be honest there's no one else able to give him good opportunities to capitalize on well not at the moment.


Kuyt scored a lot in the Dutch league!!


Kuyt was played in his correct position !


 

 

04 May 2012 10:06:24
Iv heard from a freind i met when i was on holiday in holland for my stag doo that rasmus elm aint signing for liverpool hes going to inter


Unlikely no suggested interest from inter and if you look up and search there has been nothing to suggest inter have any interest in Elm they do however have interest in de Jong.


As much as I hope this is true, the fact that you can't spell the 2 letter word "do" leads me to believe otherwise...


Are you even old enough to be getting married? One would suspect not.


At least he isnt joining newcastle ahead of us like the mirrior said yesterday


 

 

04 May 2012 10:05:13
In manchester rumour is ripe that liverpool have agreed a fee with man city for adam johnson and have also enquired into the availability into james milner.


Those two could be the answer to our problems and produce some quality form the wings, heres hoping.
cobra


I think Johnson and milner will end at Spurs in part ex for Bale.


Just like downing was going to be the answer last season


Johnson has far more ability the Downing


 

 

04 May 2012 09:37:34
seeing capello wanting a premiership job with a clu with ambition what would be the chances of him taking over from kenny as he has a good pedigree at club level?


Wants to stay in London


Nah he wants to go to Liverpool, loves the local chippy


Not the worst call on here.
Capello has a fantastic club record!?
5uarezTimes


It true to be said that his club record is very very impressive !!


 

 

04 May 2012 09:09:58
Morning eds
Do you no if liverpool are wearing the new kit for the final 2mrw

Nick from birmingham {Ed001's Note - they won't be wearing it this season, they are contracted to adidas until the end of it.}


Hey Ed001, wasn't it said we'd be wearing it one game near the end/the last game of the Season? What happened with that? Or is that still supposed to happen?

Thanks for any response.
Ell. {Ed001's Note - I never heard that said, it usually happens with new strips from the same manufacturer, but not when it is a new one.}


Eds what about preseason? thanks. Can't wait to see the new warrior kit. {Ed001's Note - the new kit will be worn for the pre-season games.}


 

 

04 May 2012 08:41:38
Do you think we would buy clint dempsey and do u think he would be bought for attacking midfield or right winger or do u think hed be bought as a striker to score goals?


 

 

04 May 2012 09:10:12
I'm hoping we land the following for next season. I think they are realistic

R. Soldado. Valencia. 15-20 million.
I. Affelay. Barcelona. 5-7 million.
I. Muniain. A. Bilbao. 15-25 million.
R. Elm. 8 million.

If sales allow anymore I would hope we sign one or two (depending on price) the following.

M. Isla. Udinese.
K. Honda CSKA.
L. De Jong. Twente.


Jonesred


Yes we getting som e good players


No you not m8 is all rumours


I think your Xbox squad will look much stronger next season. Consider adding Messi in the January transfer window.


Honda will be going to spain when he eventually moves. Valencia perhaps.

Nevada


Best laugh all week


 

 

04 May 2012 09:04:19
Heard were looking at climp Dempsey is this true? He's a good player but once again were gonna pay millions for a player prob bought for little?! We need to be the team that has them never heard of players storm the league. I would go Germany and get someone like cisse or sissogurn (excuse spelling)


2 of susaeta Munian or Ramirez plus a top striker and raise funds by selling carrol or Johnson would like to keep them though


29 Too old


 

 

04 May 2012 09:01:55
"We never talk publicly about transfer targets, however, any team would be lucky to have Clint Dempsey playing on their squad," said Tom Werner


Then states,
"£10m for a player of his age is too much"
Piddy


If thats the sort of player we are targeting cant wait for next season!....that was said with a massive hit of sarcasm....god help us!.pinhead.


You put that up completely out of context. The Journo asked him if he thought Dempsey was any good? that was his response. We will not buy him


 

 

04 May 2012 06:22:17
Morning Ed is it true we're interested in Fredy Montero as suggested on Talksport?

Chris in Tamworth {Ed002's Note - There was talk of a move to Ajax - I think getting a work permit would be an issue for England. So it seems a little unlikely although perhaps not impossible if Liverpool could secure a work permit for him.}


Have you seen much of him Ed? Do you think he would cut it in the prem

Chris in Tamworth {Ed002's Note - I went to a Sounders game in LA last year but have no recollection of him Chris. Aside from that I cannot say much beyond a work permit would be an issue. I am in the States at present and will ask if I run in to anyone who would know.}


Montero is pretty good. Have seen him play alot. Very creative but thats in MLS so who knows how that would transfer to the EPL. He is extremely light weight and small. I would think he would have a hard time with the physical side of the EPL.
If I were to sign anyone from MLS it would be Fabian Espíndola. The striker from Real Sault Lake. Now he would fit perfect into the EPL

Liverpool's main CF target is either soldado or lewandowski .

no interest in giroud,matias suarez,jackson martinez or de jong .

collins


No interest in Suarez or de jOng?? I cleary remember the eds saying we have interest in them! {Ed002's Note - Just ignore it.}


Yup okay we have interest in these players but it is unlikely we will land de jong he has 15 clubs after him "reportedly" and apparently 3 of them are in the CL? he seems unlikely atm but fingers crossed gd


There is interest in de Jong anyway


There is no disrespect to anyone . that is what i have informed.we will see.

Hi Eds,
A mate of mine works at Liverpool as a steward,
he told me that Adam Johnson had had a tour around Melwood,but he refused to tell me if he was going to sign for us as he use to say"true stories"

just spreading the info.


Listen mate, I used to be an Anfield Steward (no. 728 from season 200708 - 2009/10) myself and there are only a handful (out of hundreds in total) of stewards who would be at the ground for these sorts of things. They are normally guys who have been at the club for a long time who are 100% trusted by the club.

Everyday, crowd stewards would certainly not be privy to this sort of info as we usually turn up 3 hours before kick off, sign in, wait at the corner of the main stand/anfield road end, disperse to our allocated meeting points within the ground, go to the turnstiles or wherever and then take up our position in the ground at about quarter past kick off time.

What I'm trying to say is: stewards (other than a very minute but trusted loyal few) just simply would not have access to any transfer information.


Ah why did you have to go and ruin it on him? He was getting all excited with his Adam Johnston story

Deal Done for Olivier Giroud.

Macca can you confirm this, I have been told by a few people close to the club its pretty much done. You been told this aswell?

Same sources tell me Muniain is a huge target this summer, as was Soldado before we got Giroud. Also heard that Belhanda is a target and that Martinez has been scouted


Lol no proff or Macca would have said


Deal done for Giroud? maybe on your champ manager game but not in real life! Can we stick to "real" rumours insted of stupid wish lists!

Kenny Dalglish is showing an interest in Borussia Dortmund midfielder Shinji Kagawa and will reportedly look to make a bid for the talented Japanese international this summer. The 23 year old has enjoyed two incredibly successful seasons at the Bundesliga side but has told his club's owners that he wants to leave for pastures new.
Kagawa has been an instant hit in Germany ever since he arrived from Cerezo Osaka and has helped Jurgen Klopp's side clinch back to back domestic titles in the process. During his two seasons at the Westfalenstadion the Kobe born attacker has notched up 28 goals and 12 assists in 68 games in all competitions a very healthy return for a player who cost Dortmund just £300k.
Kagawa has been the subject of interest from a number of clubs and having seen team-mate Nuri Sahin move to Real Madrid the Japanese international appears keen to Borussia Dortmund side and interest from the Anfield side could well prove tempting.
Liverpool could well do with more creative talent to help boost their firepower having struggled for goals for much of this season. Dalglish has spent a great deal on new additions over the past 18 months but the Merseyside club's American owners are ready to hand the Scot significant funds when the transfer window re-opens.
Kenny Dalglish has seen a number of his recent acquisitions struggle for form with the likes of Jordan Henderson, Charlie Adam, Stewart Downing and Andy Carroll all struggle for form, leaving the Liverpool boss having little option other than to look to strengthen his options.
