I've been told that we will come in with an offer closer to Leicester's value for mahrez at somepoint today and he's reported to be very open to moving to us . don't know if it's total crap or if it's got legs to it . just passing it on

For me id welcome it, he possesses real quality on the ball and final delivery is up there with the best which is something I think we are missing, granted I know supposedly attitude issues but same was said about mane and wijnaldum at there previous clubs.

He's a rather expensive back up to Salah.


2.) 31 Jan 2018 12:17:03
thanks for posting this rumour JJ, however I doubt it will happen, look more for the departures today, let's hope, bogdan and markovic can find new clubs and kick start there careers.


3.) 31 Jan 2018 12:28:44
If he does have altitude issues, I don’t know personally, then being a rotation player wouldn’t necessarily help with that. But if he was willing to blend with the team then his creativity could be a big plus. Still doubt it will happen.


4.) 31 Jan 2018 12:47:36
haha good one.


5.) 31 Jan 2018 12:57:32
Altitude issues? Just as well our CL games is in Portugal and not Russia. Poor soul would have to do a Bergkamp and drive everywhere.


6.) 31 Jan 2018 13:00:50
Freshst, I'm sure the altitude in Liverpool will not be an issue for him, it's hardly La Paz.


7.) 31 Jan 2018 13:02:11
What does being afraid of heights have to do with it Fresh?


8.) 31 Jan 2018 13:04:54
I cannot see us spending £100m on Mahrez when we were apparently reluctant to spend less than that on Lemar. I think aside from outs, there won't be any more coming in, which is a massive gamble.


9.) 31 Jan 2018 13:17:38
Not happening.


10.) 31 Jan 2018 14:22:07
Be a good signing to give mane competition, he’s looking out of it at the moment.


11.) 31 Jan 2018 14:40:28
I agree MrDennis, God forbid bobby mane or salah gets injured our backup/ replacements are just not upto it for what we need . That's just my opinion by the way.

we always needed defensive reinforcements that's been blatantly obvious for some time now and we still need more, we was very fortunate in the attacking options we had at our disposal.
That now has significantly changed. I know sturridge is a difficult scenario as he's on a massive wage and hardly plays but I always felt he'll get us goals that doesn't happen with ings and solanke and that's what we are left with

Phil going wasn't a surprise so the club knew it was happening and for us not to have a replacement lined up ready to bring in is absolutely farcical, that's a lot of goals and assists we lost when he left.

Clubs say players aren't for sale but if the price is right then any player can be sold regardless what these clubs say. every player has there price

It seems to me and I could be wrong here that Liverpool are wanting these stupid increased figures for players (phil) but won't pay other clubs there asking values when they know we have received a stupid amount of money. we can't have it both ways

We are taking a massive gamble in not making our squad/ team stronger this window, every other team in direct competition with us are. United sign Sanchez arsenal sign him ( not trying to spell his name) and the other one who again I'm not trying to spell it, spurs sign moura and Chelsea sign giroud. It's not like we have a massive points advantage over these teams and can t be caught, we can be caught .

Dont get me wrong I'm a huge fan of klopp and the style he has brought but I am at a loss to understand why we are not trying to strengthen squad and our grip on a top 4 place because without CL football we won't be able to attract players of that calibre.


12.) 31 Jan 2018 14:41:58
No chance. We are still trying to get Griezmann. Plus coutinho doesn't need to be replaced. Shocking.


13.) 31 Jan 2018 15:02:57
All lies. Nothing is going to happen apart from players leaving.


14.) 31 Jan 2018 15:36:45
Would anyone do a straight swap between Mane and mahrez. I would think its good business.


15.) 31 Jan 2018 15:49:57
I think it's quite clear they will be no more incomings this window . Lfc never leave it this late in jan window and klopp has said no more only outgoings .


16.) 31 Jan 2018 16:05:17
Mane is apparently having a bad season and has 9 goals.

Mahrez is apparently back to his best and has 9 goals.

Mane is 3 times the player Mahrez is.


17.) 31 Jan 2018 16:22:29
Agree MK. Mane has had some difficulty due to injury and it isn't easy coming back from that, but he has still weighed in and is far more consistent than Mahrez even on an off day.


18.) 31 Jan 2018 16:23:56
Lightly rosterd,

Did January 31st 2011 slip your mind mate? :)


19.) 31 Jan 2018 16:39:18
the rose tinted specs with regards to Mane on here is embarrassing. I would be absolutely delighted if we brought in Mahrez.


20.) 31 Jan 2018 18:59:47
hoping it was just a typo on my part and not some prophetic comment.


 

 

22 Jan 2018 13:46:40
Afternoon eds.

Seen a few links with regard to sturridge going to inter etc latest one stating a player swap deal could be in the offing (Can t remember the name of inter player) would that sort of deal interest us or are we looking for a straight sale?

Jimmy_jaffa

{Ed002's Note - It would depend who the player is. They are not going to pay the asking price.}


1.) 22 Jan 2018 14:41:12
I'd take brozovic as part of the deal but I don't see that happening as there seems to be quite of bit of interest in him.


2.) 22 Jan 2018 16:05:21
do Inter play with a goalkeeper?


3.) 22 Jan 2018 16:20:07
It was Brozovic that was muted.


4.) 22 Jan 2018 16:51:41
Stevie, they're No 1 is Handanovic, who we have been linked with in the past (as I think Ed002 has alluded to, the link that is, not that Inter are in anyway interested in letting him go)


5.) 22 Jan 2018 14:33:57
Cheers ed002

Is there anyone at inter who's available this month that would be of interest to us.

{Ed002's Note - Not that I can think of.}


6.) 22 Jan 2018 14:40:22
Brozovic was the guy reported.

{Ed002's Note - They have already turned down a decent offer from another PL side for him.}


7.) 22 Jan 2018 17:52:32
I would love to see Skriniar in Liverpool but that's not going to happen.

{Ed002's Note - it would be a good deal, much is expected of him and I have no doubt that Dinsdale McS could have a word to tell him about the club.}


8.) 22 Jan 2018 12:15:08
Unfortunately Skriniar's never going to move away from a team with which he shares a name.

Although Baros did well for us, so maybe Milan's are lucky?


9.) 23 Jan 2018 07:18:26
Remember Jovanovic? . No? Ok, me either then.


 

 

02 Jan 2018 12:54:15
Pip won't be going anywhere this window . Although there will be an announcement with an agreement in place for deal for the summer ala nabby

Announcement will be made after the derby.

Jimmy_jaffa

1.) 02 Jan 2018 13:19:38
What's your source? Eds, any truth in this? There's so much speculation today, I'm tired!

{Ed002's Note - There is no agreement at this time.}


2.) 02 Jan 2018 14:03:21
I remain naively optimistic! Barcelona should have La Liga wrapped up and PC cup tied for CL, deal now and move in the summer.
I have no "sources" just hope lol.


3.) 02 Jan 2018 13:53:24
Eds in your opinion will the deal be done now for the summer or will he move now? I would assume if the intention was to sell now then it should be done quickly so we can get a "replacement". Sad to think how we will perform without him, becoming so influential.

{Ed002's Note - The answer has been provided over and over.}

24 Jan 2018 18:10:05
Eds. is there any new developments regarding Lemar? Reading a few contradictory reports some saying deal is very close for this window others saying deal agreed for summer. I assume it's just silly talk but was wondering if anything new had materialised with him.
Also is sturridges exit likely to happen this month? I know he wants out but what is your thoughts on the chances of it happening

Thanks.

Jimmy_jaffa

{Ed002's Note - There is nothing new with Lemar. Sturridge can happen but Liverpool have asked for a very large fee post loan so that needs to change.


1.) 24 Jan 2018 18:23:47
I don't understand why we out price players who are doing bugger all (Stirridge, Markovich), surely some other team paying his wages is enough? why are we demanding more. I fear if we carry on like this Sturridge will be with us until the summer, it's a waste of wages, his and our time.


2.) 24 Jan 2018 18:28:36
Cheers ed002.


3.) 24 Jan 2018 19:00:53
From what I have read Sturridge is a player who we would like to keep until the summer but are prepared to let him go now for the right price. We are not desperate for the money, why accept less than we think he is worth? How is it a waste of time to keep a good player? He will still get game time for us if he stays he just won’t be a regular starter.


4.) 24 Jan 2018 19:11:56
Smeg, good player? I'm sorry but not anymore mate, he was in the past now he's not, how is he? he doesn't get the game time, he's made of glass and when he does come on he barely does anything anyway. If he does stay I don't think we'll see much of him at all. Obviously in an ideal situation we all want to see him back to how he used to be, but that isn't going to happen therefore it's a waste of time keeping a player who A. wants out and B. isn't good enough.


5.) 24 Jan 2018 19:17:17
Get him off the books. He hasn't kicked a ball since Suarez left.


6.) 24 Jan 2018 19:29:07
Sturridge was great but injuries have seriously diminished his ability. He wants games to play in the World Cup, and he’s not going to get them here, so he should be allowed to go.


7.) 24 Jan 2018 19:32:11
Studge's time is up, I'm afraid.


8.) 24 Jan 2018 19:41:42
3 goals and 3 assists in 500 minutes of football is a long way off barely anything.

The problem is not what he does when he's on the pitch it's that we haven't been able to have him on the pitch enough. I expect him to leave on the next 6 months and I'll be gutted when he does.


 

 

16 Jan 2018 17:37:25
Evening Eds. are we still actively looking to bring in new faces this window or is it the likelihood will make do with what we have and make things happen in the summer.?

Also is any RBs on our radar as i see that as one of the problem positions for us still. the young lad gomez has been unreal at times and he's playing out of position and you can see the centre half in him the way he gets caught at times with the man on the back post and TAA still has a lot to learn and i don't feel it's the right time to have to completely depend on him as our first choice.

Jimmy_jaffa

{Ed025's Note - i cant see liverpool doing much if anything in this window jimmy..


1.) 16 Jan 2018 18:11:15
I don't think we'll sign anybody and to be honest I aren't really bothered if we don't. Id rather wait until the summer before panic buying a player this month. There's a few positions which need addressing in the summer but right now I'm happy overall with the squad we have, I'd love Keita to be here now but that's not happening.


2.) 16 Jan 2018 18:28:36
We desperatly need another body in the middle. Hendo always injured and Emre is off.


 

 

12 jan 2018 21:18:11
since macca dropped the bomb, it looks to me like all the eds have got the popcorn and txtn each saying wow this escalated quickly 😂😂

that's no dig at macca either, all his info is as apprieated as much as the eds are for me.

11 Jan 2018 19:19:18
Ed001

Quick question regarding a transfer may require a longer answer though 😂.
We all know about city flirting with and wanting sanchez and it's been thought of for sometime now that, that will be his destination.
Now utd have bid for him (supposedly) if this is indeed true is there a reason why we would not try our luck?

Is he seen as someone that would be not a good influence on others around the squad and may disrupts things? Just curious as to why we wouldn't be interested in him when he's clearly available. Or is it a case of he's already made his mind up and it's a token gesture alla bill kenwright style bid from utd knowing they don't stand a chance but trying to appease the fans somewhat by bidding?

Jimmy_jaffa

{Ed001's Note - he wants to go to City, so it would just be a case of United trying their luck just in case City can't get a deal done with Arsenal.}


 

 

10 Jan 2018 12:23:55
Ed001

I've just been reading an article about emre can and his talks have moved on quicker than thought and could indeed move this month.

Was nabby brought in with us knowing emre was leaving? And we the club be as soft as to let 2 leave this window knowing how difficult it is to get replacements in?

Jimmy_jaffa

{Ed001's Note - Can was always likely to leave, Keita was bought to improve in the midfield.}


1.) 10 Jan 2018 12:31:58
Can can't move this move without a fee being involved he can only agree to move at the end of the season.


2.) 10 Jan 2018 13:03:05
Yes JC I'm aware a fee would be needed for it to be done this, I was just curious as to whether keita was seen as emre replacement as ed001 had mentioned it's been common knowledge he was looking to leave before we signed keita.

also ed001 wasn't it mentioned that brandt wanted reassurances of playing time when we inquired as he seen it limited with us having Phil playing there?

I haven't seen the lad much if I'm honest on what little time I have he's looked very good. But with Phil now gone would that be a likely or realistic option? Or has that shipped sailed now?

I just hope we have learned from past mistakes of transfer windows from ballzing up deals and wasting money on average squad fillers.


3.) 10 Jan 2018 14:41:29
If we where to get a transfer fee to allow it there would be some sense in trying to get Juve to pay the same value RBL would want for an early Keita transfer although he would be tied for UCL, also I would image the fee RBL would want would be much higher than that which Juve would pay for getting can early.

Brandt I would say would slot into a JK team nicely.


4.) 10 Jan 2018 19:14:24
I'm myself not optimistic we will make any significant signings since Phil has left. klopp has said time and time again he doesn't like the winter window as it doesn't reflect a true worth of the players value and added to the fact he has proven he will wait for his preferred selection rather than sign another just to sign someone (VVD) .

And that's sort of got me on edge as come the summer arsenal and many more teams will be after some of if not all of the players we arem and it's by no means guaranteed we will finish in the champions league elect positions . If we don't make it into those positions it's going to be catastrophic for our club in terms of bridging the gap between us city, Chelsea utd and even spurs as we won't be able to attract are preferred targets and then our better players will have there heads turned and then we are back at the pipco situation again

The actions of the remaining time left in this window our bigger than ever imo.

Ed001 I was told a little earlier that real Madrid will come in with a massive offer late in this window to test Liverpools resolve in keeping salah . any weight to that or just typical rumblings for this time of year.

{Ed001's Note - why would they do it late in the window? Makes no sense when there is more chance of getting a deal done making an offer early.}


5.) 10 Jan 2018 20:29:13
I'd agreed with you . from your comments then do you think we would be open to negotiations regarding salah or would they be met with the he's not for sale stance?

{Ed001's Note - LFC do not want to sell Salah.}


6.) 10 Jan 2018 20:40:06
They didn't want to sell coutinho either 😂😉.

{Ed001's Note - Klopp wanted him gone though.}


7.) 10 Jan 2018 20:55:06
Yeah i know I'm just messing about pal. shame as he was a wonderful player and regardless of what lots are saying since his departure he will be very difficult to replace but LFC have done the impossible time and time again

Keegan kenny rush Fowler Owen Torres Suarez to name a few.

Ed001 it's ok pal. Knew what you was meaning, I just couldn't resist the opportunity to try and have a little fun at the expense of ed002 that's all. we all know how brutal said ed can be at times. No harm intended of course

Really that's interesting ed001 .

as I suggested would we possibly look to rush one through late a few days ago and was massively shot down by ed002 why would we do this and sign a player he doesn't want etc etc . and I'm sure there was something along the lines of I don't grasp it and never will . you be made my misery of no signings a little less knowing I can grasp it 😂😉.

Jimmy_jaffa

{Ed001's Note - I worded that badly after a long day. I should have said that it was a player Klopp is interested in that became available so he decided to see if a deal could be done earlier than intended. More like Wijnaldum than a panic deal, a player Klopp wants becomes an unexpected option. He was not 'rushing it through' or it would have been done, there was plenty of time to make it happen.}

I get that ed002 I was basing my question on the fact we maybe shift one or 2 off the wage bill (sturridge markovic and a few other fringe players ) whether on loan or permanents. as the club are actively looking to offload them so it's not like it's totally out of the question said players leave is it. so maybe a simple answer of yes it possible if they move on some would of sufficed. but as I said in previous post, must be a bad day 😉.

{Ed002's Note - No - Markovic is not one of the Liverpool squad. You really don't understand this and I guess you never will.}

BRover what are you going on about? I've not once said anything about a panic buy or to buy someone klopp doesn't want . I simply suggested/ asked the question would we possibly rush through one with us looking light in that area rather than wait till the summer to get said player! Not every player this club makes will be a marquee signing there will be other aswell as them in the summer, so instead of gambling on someone's fitness which has so far let him down this campaign maybe bring one of these summer targets in now! With regards to ed002 response if she wants to kick him out pay him up and the club sign someone they don't want then that's entirely there choice. I'm assuming that's what ed002 wants as that response had nothing to do with the question I asked . either that or ed002 is having a bad day.

Jimmy_jaffa

{Ed002's Note - You don't seem to be able to grasp the reality of it all. You cannot keep adding players - they won't be allowed to play. They cost money. The wages cost money.}
