Hello all,
The rumours that we’ve spoken to Como and Cesc Fabregas are 100% true.
Ta.
{Ed025's Note - cheers mate..
09 Dec 2025 18:37:37
Cheers Carra. Shame Richard Hughes can’t leave with Slot.
09 Dec 2025 18:37:52
Perry?
{Ed025's Note - at least he would give you some "Magic Moments" Ron..
09 Dec 2025 18:39:06
That would be an interesting turn of events, can't say i've watched much Italian football since the 90's on channel 4 but understand he is doing very well over there.
Cheers ?.
09 Dec 2025 18:41:56
Hey Carra,
Always appreciate your insight. Apologies, and if anyone else can help here but - who is Como.
{Ed001's Note - it is a team mate. Very well funded Italian team.}
09 Dec 2025 18:42:50
Do you think fabregas would be decent carra? He seems to be doing a good job and what type of football does he play eds? Possession based?
Many thanks.
09 Dec 2025 18:43:01
He's done a great job with them, and seems like a likeable bloke.
09 Dec 2025 18:45:54
Cheers Carra.
09 Dec 2025 18:48:18
Oh that was bad Ed025.
{Ed025's Note - if someone leaves the door wide open Barry...i cant be blamed for walking right through it mate.. :)
09 Dec 2025 18:55:02
I've literally just read that Fabregas is at Inter tonight. to ' learn his trade'. he says he loves Inters ground . So why has Edwards gone there ??.
{Ed025's Note - because he is the Chief Executive of LFC?..
09 Dec 2025 18:56:13
Thanks Carra.
Alonso won the Bundesliga, and has been getting slated on here by some. Wonder what those same people think of Cesc.
09 Dec 2025 18:56:22
I’ve seen a few clips of him after games. He seems very warm towards his players and I hear he’s tactically intelligent.
09 Dec 2025 19:03:35
? @ Ed025
He might catch a “falling star” too.
{Ed025's Note - i think we have had enough falling stars recently Ron..but nice one mate.. :)
09 Dec 2025 18:59:44
Thanks carra.
Now I’m sure you and the ED’s and most on here are reading the same question but I’m just after opinions… I can take the rumours and like reading them, but I also would like to know what your gut/ feeling is as to what’s going to happen over the next few weeks?
Or maybe yous think not much will happen??♂️
Anyways hope you’re all doning well guys! ??.
{Ed025's Note - it would all be guess work Magsy..
09 Dec 2025 19:07:55
£15m potential fee. He's a great up n coming manager. Shows Hughes big contacts in Serie A.
09 Dec 2025 19:13:24
Ed1, well funded? Is this the team that is owned by Indonesian billionaire? I remembered reading articles years ago about Italian club that is bought by Indonesian billionaire brothers. They were lower league team before and completely transform after that and now is in Serie A. Those brothers are super wealthy, like the richest family in Indonesia.
{Ed001's Note - yes, that's them, the tobacco barons aren't they? Used to be run by Dennis Wise, not sure if he is still there though.}
09 Dec 2025 19:13:56
LFC “hold talks” with a manager with no experience bar one and a bit seasons in sole charge of a small but incredibly wealthy Italian club where he has won nothing of note, and never had any pressure to succeed bar avoiding relegation having brought multiple experienced internationals?
Is this a p. take?
09 Dec 2025 19:14:18
Hope they can snag Nico Paz ?.
09 Dec 2025 19:07:16
Sorry Ed . that was me being sarcastic regarding Edwards. I guess the 2 of them will be chatting over a Bolognese sarny.
{Ed025's Note - you never know Robby mate?..
09 Dec 2025 19:30:18
Thanks for clearing that up ED.
{Ed001's Note - very welcome.}
09 Dec 2025 20:28:21
Wise is no longer with Como, I know someone who worked at the club when Wise was there, I have been to their ground a few times and took the sea plane ride. He disagreed strongly with Febregas et al’s shift in policy from developing/ buying in young players to buying old timers whose best days are long gone. This is not the manager LFC want.
09 Dec 2025 21:02:36
Carra was this meeting you mentioned the other day if things go well slot could be replaced?
09 Dec 2025 21:28:52
Christ I hope not! That would be a bizarre and underwhelming appointment.
09 Dec 2025 21:49:21
£15m fee, made up on the spur of the moment. Love it ??.
09 Dec 2025 21:51:30
Yes Eddie, they were just working out what percentage ownership of LFC FSG are going to give Cesc to get him to take the manager’s job. The last time a meeting went well for him, he convinced a couple of billionaires to give up a piece of Como 1907.
09 Dec 2025 22:36:37
Hopefully they spoke to say, don't call us, we'll call you.
09 Dec 2025 22:53:52
Fabregas? To replace which midfielder? Ain’t he a bit old now?
Joking aside we have a manager let’s not be like Man U and other rubbish storm clubs and keep changing managers. He’s got a new guard give him some time to get them to gel . Short term decisions on managers especially when they won the league the prior year I just can’t handle - we are better than that surely?!
10 Dec 2025 02:10:53
Lol Shankly, I agree.
One positive is atleast we're looking for a new manager behind the scenes.
Thanks, Carra.
10 Dec 2025 06:42:53
He's a bit old Carra. His legs went years ago. Can't see him shifting about as much as he used to.
10 Dec 2025 07:20:03
It might also rain next week.
Unless it doesn't.
10 Dec 2025 08:53:33
Probably a total stab in the dark, but Eds/ Carra/ Reds, any idea whether bringing Fabregas in would also mean potentially bringing Osian Roberts in as well, or is he Djarum Group's man rather than Cesc's man?
I've met Osian a few times and his knowledge and passion for football is incredible. I'm not passing comment on his skills as a Head of Development but he seems to be doing a good job at Como and his football philosophy would seem to fit Liverpool.
Cheers in advance!
