Ed001 or Ed002 if you are around, could you please explain the situation with VVD as you know it? Quite clearly, Liverpool have once again proved themselves to be incompetent when it comes to the matters of transfers.

In the past, the blame was almost always attached to Ian Ayre when things didn't go well on the transfer front, but clearly, this is a systemic issue at LFC and whoever is making these calls needs to be let go and a real good shake up is needed at the club. Not the best start for Moore, Edwards and Gordon.

Ultimately, FSG need to show they know what is going on at the club they own and put the right people in place and for that they need to probably get help from people who know football.

{Ed002's Note - The situation is that the club and Klopp are guilty of making another illegal approach for a player. It is unacceptable and if Liverpool continue in the manner it will end with a transfer ban. Making public apologies makes it embarrassing for the club. Perhaps a ban would drive the point home to the club and Klopp?}

Eds, pardon my stupidity but when you say Klopp do you mean that he himself has approached the player personally? If that's the case then I'm even more embarrassed.

{Ed002's Note - Yes, Klopp has approached players but this tapping up situation at Liverpool has been going on for years.}

If this has been going on for years, then clearly, it is not Klopp that needs to be careful alone but the people running the show. I think you have to portion some level of responsibility in this to FSG as they make the decisions to put people like Edwards, Chang etc in place.

{Ed001's Note - that is no excuse for Klopp to do it.}
