Hi Ed2

Are we still in negotiations for Lavia or is it a case that we will now proceed with trying to negotiate for Andre instead? Also do you happen to know if he is any good as I think it would be a huge risk given he has no PL experience.

{Ed002's Note - You are all over-doing the thought of "negotiations". Liverpool have made two low and unacceptable bids so far - they know what is required. He has PL experience.}

You reckon we will pull our fingers out our arse and place an acceptable bid eds? The clock is ticking.

{Ed002's Note - I really have no idea.}

He has only played a few less games than Jones so he has the experience clearly we are trying to make our money stretch or maybe we just don't value him at the same level as Southampton I just hope we don't drag it out to a point where its impossible for us to get anyone in we need to just get a fart on and get the players in so we can start to gel as a team.

Sorry I meant to say isn’t Andre a very risky signing?

{Ed002's Note - There will always be an element of risk, but "very risk" I am not so sure.}

I heard that Andre is a giant of a player…
I’ll get my goat!

Wouldn't Andre require a work permit, meaning any transfer will take longer to complete?

{Ed002's Note - And international clearance but it won't be an issue.}

Ok thanks Ed. Appreciate everything you all do.

I like the look of Andre, limited to clips.

He seems to be two-footed, calm on the ball with good composure. Vital to play the DM position.

I’d put him ahead of Lavia if I’m being honest. Lavia is a bit of a headless chicken - prone to errors in the fast paced EPL.

Thankfully Klopp won’t lose sleep and, more importantly, drive and expectation on the basis of a few panicking Liverpool fans ?

Can’t wait for some discussion around how people thought todays friendly went as far as season preparation is concerned ?.

Unaccepted, not unacceptable. The kid’s 19 and half way through last season most of us hadn’t even heard of him.

For 48-50 million the world’s gone mad. Be like our what, 6th most expensive signing ever? Hell of a risk is all I’ll say on that.

Anyone see Andre play? Is he any good, better or worse than Lavia?

Hey Bobby. that's my line. and by the way, you'd need to use your Wisdom to be making Andre jokes round here. now I'll get my goat (I mean coat! )

The longer we go round and round in circles on La Via, the more it seems to be a smokescreen.

Is it possible that the message never reached Romeo? Is his agent called Friar John, by any chance?

Klopps success rate with players that have played in premier league is much better than straight foreign signings, plus I believe he might have the Klopps for Romeo, he has been looking for that midfielder that can take a ball and make a guy or two miss and drive at the defense, only worry is that this has been his one spot or type of player he can't get right, injuries being a major factor.
