Hi edds, is jese available for loan from Real Madrid? Brilliant player but will most likely be wrecked by the so called "galacticos". Thanks

Believable4 Unbelievable20

{Ed002's Note - At one point a loan to West Ham was discussed, and Inter would like a deal but it won't happen.}

Hi Eds.
I'm becoming increasingly vexed at watching people post questions regarding rumours and then get angry when they don't get the answer they want. Absolute joke.
As true fan, I think we have come a long long way and could go even further with the right signings! Are we still in Fernando Reges of Porto? I think we lack bite and strength in the midfield!

Believable9 Unbelievable13

{Ed002's Note - There has been a little twist to the saga of Fernando. Fernando has recently become a Portuguese citizen and is desperately looking to force his way in to the national side in time for the World Cup. Whilst this eases a move to Italy where Inter and Fiorentina remain keen, the signing on fee asked of Fiorentina has come as a real shock to them. A number of other clubs have declared an interest and certainly Everton is one but I really don't know of confirmed interest from Liverpool - but it would make some sense. Porto would like to keep him if a deal can be agreed - and that might be back on the table now his citizenship has been confirmed. It has also been suggested that an option may still exist with the Brazilian side but it seems sitting on the bench for Brazil is less attractive right now.}

I'm the same getting annoyed at people posting the same questions about the same players. I asked the exact same thing about him at 23:01pm last night to Eds and he has copied and pasted the exact answer to you.

What is annoying me even further is that when I ask something that has all ready been answered I get RTP or RTFP.

So we all get annoyed with different things on here.

Please RTFP

Hi Ed, when you say a "twist", surely his citizenship attempts would have been pre-planned. I know in the UK its a very long process 4+ years and anyone going for it its one of the biggest things in their lives for that period so surely his club must have had an inkling? Also when you say National team, is that the Portuguese national team now? Would a move abroad to Italy not weaken his case therefore?

{Ed002's Note - It had been rejected a couple of times before and then it went through in December. Italy, unlike other countries, will be less concerned about what is potentially a passport of convenience. He sees his WC opportunities better with Portugal.}

Hi Eds, you have mentioned a couple of times that there is a difference in valuation with the Salah transfer. How far apart are the clubs in terms of the amount they are negotiating? Are we talking around 9-12 million? Or is it a higher margin?

Many thanks on your insight.

Believable15 Unbelievable4

{Ed002's Note - The definitive word came from Macca that the deal is done and it is very clear that my opinion on both Salah and the loan deal for Tello will do nothing but attract abuse.}

Ed obviously the deal is far from done and I don't think tello will be joining, 99% of the time what you say is what happens, has there been any developments over the past few days with salah? is the zenit interest true or just been used to rush Liverpool along?

i for 1 appreciate your opinion even if sometimes I don't agree with it

thankyou to you all who give up your time to give us information we wouldn't get anywhere else!x

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - See above.}

And that wasn't aimed badly at you ed002, more at the fact you feel you can't share your opinion or knowledge of a situation without being abused.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I have only so far been abused about Salah and Tello - so the answer is for me to say no more.}

Seen a LOT of comments (twitter, yes) saying the difference is between 15 (LFC Stand) and 18-20 (Basel's attempt to get bigger cut)

Agree1 Disagree0

Lets all just take a break from all the salah rumours and have a beer for the season so far, kinda getting bored of reading about salah 15 times a day. cheers all and happy new year, YNWA

Do you know the situation with Éver Banega? some rumours are saying that we are interested.

Believable1 Unbelievable9

{Ed002's Note - Southampton and Fiorentina placed bids for Banega over the summer but they were well below the asking price. Spurs also made enquiries. Napoli, Lazio, Roma and Milan have all been approached about the player in recent weeks with Milan showing interest.}

06 Jan 2014 16:36:24
Eds, heard rumours of Liverpool interest in Axel Witsel. Is it true? He'd be great for our midfield.

Believable1 Unbelievable18

{Ed002's Note - No idea, sorry.}

Thanks for the quick reply Ed002! Wouldn't that be a sweet signing

Agree1 Disagree0

06 Jan 2014 16:26:13
Any interest in Sidney Sam Ed. Also how many do u see us signing this window please? A couple maybe at most?

Believable2 Unbelievable14

{Ed002's Note - I really can't help, sorry.}

Liverpool are to make a bid in the region of £20 million for Roma AM Miralem Pjanic.
It is believed he will be sold in this transfer window and it is thought the 3 main interested teams are PSG, Tottenham and ourselves.
This with Salah which there will be announcement on pretty soon will all but conclude our first team business unless someone extraordinary becomes available.

Believable13 Unbelievable39

I doubt it will even be the start of our first team business never mind the conclusion. £20 million for Pjanic plus a reputed £15 million for Salah gives £35 million which I believe is outside anything FSG would sanction without us recouping money by selling players. As for adding on "someone extraordinary" to the bill well that's just a pipe dream. Maybe the mythical Napoli bid for Agger will help finance these deals?

Agree0 Disagree0

To be fair Vrcomp i'm still waiting on Napoli to make the offer for Agger which by my reckoning your 72 hours will be up tomorrow afternoon.

Agree0 Disagree0

Everyone on here loves a good rumour vrcomp but what you keep posting are definitive statements. You're going to end up looking very silly come the end of the window.

Agree2 Disagree0

To be fair The Irish Rover do you think they are going to place a bid until they know the outcome of the injury he sustained yesterday? If you want to look at previous posts from my friend in Napoli, I gave a bang on BID FOR SKRTLE last summer. And I was also the first to post about the Ilori purchase and Cissikho loan. (Which attracted some thanks from posters on here)
Now you seem to make a point of placing negative remarks on my posts, but hey I don't care, but if the offend you so much the answer is simple. DON'T READ THEM!!

Just read in the Liverpool echo that we have reportedly come to an agreement with fc basle for mohamed salah just passing what I have seen hope it's true then we can move on to someone else

Believable42 Unbelievable19

It's in the rumours section

Agree3 Disagree1

And attributed to a web site. I think we can ignore this one.

Agree0 Disagree0

It was on the rumours session not credited by ECHO

Marca reporting that tello will not be leaving. For sale or on loan!! I was getting my hopes up.
Who do we go for now!!

Believable11 Unbelievable23

Is'nt he a dj? Maybe we could bring him in to turn the tables?

Zenit beats Liverpool with 12M for Saladin?

Believable7 Unbelievable47

I'd sooner sign King Richard!

Agree1 Disagree0

Can't believe Zenit beat us to the signing of Saladin, hope Brendan turns his attention to Richard the Lion Heart now. Every manager needs a crusade legend in their team

Agree1 Disagree0

I think both Salah (ad-Din) and Richard(s, Micah), would be incredible signings. Our experience show that we lost many battles in the past, so it will be a shame if we lose this one against Zenit, too.

Agree0 Disagree0

Seems we're interested in sydney sam

Believable9 Unbelievable23

Never heard of him and he sounds like an Aussie gangster.

Is it true that we are interested in Delle Alli for KN dons?
I hear from fairly good source that Rodgers was at 3rd round tie with interst in this player, who I hear played very well?

thanks

Believable32 Unbelievable9

Hi mate, my understanding is that while we do habour an interest in the player. a deal is unlikely in January.possibly in the summer. My source is usually very reliable on football league matters. He seems to think the situation with Alli is similar to that of Will Hughes in that the club would prefer to come to some form of "first option" agreement due to the fact that they will not play in the first team at present so would be more beneficial to continue their footballing eduction by playing regularly in the football league.
If anything, don't be suprised to see one of our youngsters going to MK Don's on loan in January.
Cheers

Agree0 Disagree0

Cheers Andy.
i had heard via fairly relaible source that we were interested but like you say no mention that it would be now, but maybe at later date. Looks a good player though
Thanks for input

Good morning Eds, is there any truth in the kalou rumours? I really doubt it myself.

Also is there any thung else to add on the Rakitic or Montoya front please?

Believable5 Unbelievable23

{Ed001's Note - as far as I can find out, no truth and nothing new to add, we will say when we have new info mate.}

Ok Ed, thanks mate

Agree0 Disagree0

Sadly I hear its true although Spurs more likely to get him

Agree0 Disagree0

I can't understand where the Kalou rumours come from. He's at best a bread and butter player and wouldn't improve the squad to any measurable degree. Bin this story along with the "Raheem Stirling on loan" nonsense and the "Agger to Napoli" drivel.

Agree1 Disagree0

This Story is a hoax started on twitter by @dom_campbell and the media fell for it, as have others, its not happening at all .thankfully

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Jan 2014 05:51:57
I posted the other day that we were looking at Kalou after he was reported as saying he was interested in a return to the premier and after it was revealed that he had a sell on clause of only £2.5 mill.
Well this morning I have read that we are again going head to head with our old sparring partners Spurs for his signature.
Has any of the Eds heard anything as regards this and do you think he would be good enough to play here?
Kalou is able to play on either flank or as a central striker so is versatile and as a squad player for the price must be worth having a look at.no??
vrcomp
Y.N.W.A.

Believable6 Unbelievable44

Can't see this being true, why would we need him, he's not even that good a player I'm sure he didn't set the world on fire at Chelsea

Agree2 Disagree0

He'd do far better than Aspas. Sell Aspas for break even and get Kalou for three times less. Good bit of business imho

Agree0 Disagree1

{Ed001's Note - I would rather keep Moses than buy Kalou, he is one of the most woeful players I have ever seen. Constantly turning over possession when in good positions, his movement is not good either. All he has is pace, whereas Moses has power as well.}

Selling Aspas at break even price is going to be from hard to impossible. Kalou is not worth bothering with. He's no more than a fringe player and we've had and still have to many of that kind on our books.

Agree1 Disagree0

Kalou is not happening, it was a hoax created by @dom_campbell on twitter, he has been laughing for the past 24hrs since most mainstream media outlets have ran with it, its a non starter

Agree0 Disagree0

06 Jan 2014 00:35:44
LFC have reportedly offered €45 million Euros for Rakitic and Moreno.

Believable30 Unbelievable123

Great players to add for quality.

Agree0 Disagree0

The story comes from sportsdirect news so this is obviously not true
