Liverpool 'Near to Verbal Agreement' With Marc Guehi.
23 Jun 2025 21:43:28
Hmm. let's hope not.
23 Jun 2025 22:14:17
A lot of clubs are interested in him over the years and was willing to pay big money as well. I don't get the hate he's recieving and he's not kicking a ball for us yet. Trust the scouts and the club to get it right that's all I'm saying. Give him a chance if he does arrive ??anyone wearing our kit will have my total backing ?.
23 Jun 2025 22:15:37
That’s right, Slot and his team are stupid and have no idea what a good footballer looks like.
God I wish I was as insightful as you 2 shoes.
23 Jun 2025 22:22:07
Let’s not fall into negatively. I think he would be a good addition. If you consider that we’ve sold Quansah and are essentially replacing him with a better defender, then it’s an improvement to the squad. This is the best transfer window we’ve had in years.
23 Jun 2025 22:24:08
According to who Vango?
23 Jun 2025 22:29:40
Is he Realy that bad? Surely our scouts and data guys see a good player there.
23 Jun 2025 22:30:55
2shoes,
don't you have any belief in Arne, he is an improvement on Quansah surely and for what circa £10-15 Million when you consider the fees involved for the two, that's a bargain for a FA Cup Winning Club Captain (25,13 july 2025), very astute bargain buy if correct?
23 Jun 2025 22:52:21
Why not 2 shoes he’s a very good player.
23 Jun 2025 23:07:53
I don't mind the "near to verbal agreement" at all. As long as he is not signed. Just "monitor" the guy. Best way to look busy behind the desk.
23 Jun 2025 23:17:02
“Near to a verbal agreements ……
“Go on, sign for us”,
“I’m thinking about it’.
23 Jun 2025 23:21:45
They would be in theory upgrading Quansah with someone that can pass, make less errors, and is a 24 year old captain. Now if you tell me if is a Konate replacement I might get a little bit more nervous.
23 Jun 2025 23:48:30
Quansah £30 Million, TAA £10 Million, Guehi circa £40 Million, oh my gosh Arne's doing free transfers now?
24 Jun 2025 01:04:55
this is all background work to get Konate singned up on our terms looks like.
why is that majority of us don't want guehi to sign?
there is something that makes us feel this will not go well from the start.
24 Jun 2025 05:42:41
I'm not going to pretend that I watch Guehi a lot, but I remember I saw him playing for England u21 a few years ago and I liked what I saw and thought he could be a good signing, obviously he isn't the tallest, but still decent in the air and if our scouts like what they see, I recon they know better than most of us on here.
24 Jun 2025 06:07:30
I remember him having a good tournament last time round with England, who knows what a step up might do to the player. It could end up if it happens being a great signing or at the very least an average one, we need a cb or two regardless. There can't be anybody here that can honestly say they have watched enough palace games to form a judgement more comprehensive than the reported top clubs that are interested and England managers?
24 Jun 2025 07:16:23
Crikey, one sentence and a barrage of abuse.
My opinion of him is that he's really not that good so why spend 40-50 million on him.
If we sign him then I'll support him but I've seen enough of him to not be very excited by it.
Sorry you don't like my opinion and they all vary on here. Maybe if one of the Eds say different then I'll have more belief but I just don't think he's all that.
Personally, I'd rather have Gomez.
24 Jun 2025 07:19:14
To be fair I’ve never seen it happen at Liverpool in all the time I’ve supported the club. You know, where fans say someone is rubbish and we shouldn’t sign him and then strangely they turn out to be very good. Can’t see that being the case here though eh?
24 Jun 2025 08:33:50
“Personally, I'd rather have Gomez”
Who would you play for the other 37 games when he’s not fit?
I love Joe but he cannot be relied upon i am afraid.
24 Jun 2025 08:59:59
Rather have gomez who's barely ever fit unfortunately! Guehi played 44 times for club alone last season with internationals likely taking him to near 50 games. Good player a leader and great fitness record I don't see the problem in his signing if the fee is around £30-40m area.
24 Jun 2025 09:02:45
I said this the other day and got stick for it but who could we get that's better FOR THE PRICE WE'D GET GUEHI? I reckon we'd get him for £45m and that doesn't exactly buy a lot these days. I suppose we should be happy we've got to the point where we can look down our nose at an England regular coming in to strengthen the squad.
24 Jun 2025 09:40:56
Guehi would be a good signing. Good positionally, tackles, good passer and carries the ball well. Surprisingly good in the air for his size and pretty consistent. A good leader too. A better allround player than Konate, who can be brilliant on his day but a liability on other days.
24 Jun 2025 09:41:16
Guehi is a mainstay in the England defence.
Guehi is the club captain at Crystal Palace.
Guehi was the defender that Newcastle were falling over themselves to buy (£70m? ) .
Guehi is homegrown so will not take up one of our oversees players spots.
Guehi is now available for around £10m above the fee we received for Quansah.
Guehi is not injury prone.
I haven't watched him week in, week out so I don't know how good he would be for us but clearly he is rated by many in the game. He impressed me for England at the Euros and on paper it looks like a very good piece of business and a big upgrade on Quansah for a net outlay of only £10m. Personally I'm happy to trust the recruitment team (especially after the start to this summer's business) . He may not be an exciting signing but that doesn't mean that he can't be an excellent piece of business. Remember the anger from a lot on here when we signed Endo and how much love the guy gets now?
24 Jun 2025 11:14:57
I'll not bother putting an opinion in future.
Better to keep to wisecracks and stay in lane I guess.
24 Jun 2025 12:44:23
Do you feel like you put your foot in it, 2Shoes?
24 Jun 2025 23:06:22
I hope he does well for us but I am a bit underwhelmed I suppose he isn’t bad back up still hoping Hato is signed next season.
24 Jun 2025 19:04:25
Remember when we were after Andy Robbo fee 8 million and reds fans saying why are we buying him 8 million can't be any good and we don't need him or want him at our club and he came and has been world class.
So act on what our anthem says you will never walk alone and back the lad if he gets the move and the red shirt YNWA.
