Heard that Alysson has put his Cheshire mansion on market for £4.75 mill - is he heading for the exit door with VVD TAA and Mo this summer?

1.) 16 Apr 2024 20:03:17
And don’t forget klopp. Might sound more plausible if you spelt his name correctly.

2.) 16 Apr 2024 20:34:08
I did mention a few months ago that Alison might be off. I was in the cafe when a few lads were discussing it.
No one seemed to believe he might be going. I think we're in for a shock come end of the season in regards to transfer requests.

3.) 16 Apr 2024 20:54:34
Cant people move house these days.

4.) 16 Apr 2024 21:41:18
Edd002 is allison happy at Liverpool and staying next season?

{Ed002's Note - As far as I know.}

5.) 16 Apr 2024 22:33:06
I’ll put in a bid when the market comes down a bit.

6.) 16 Apr 2024 23:36:26
Real coincidence it is put up for sale the same day it was announced Bobby has put his house up for sale for around the same price.

7.) 16 Apr 2024 23:37:10
It’s definitely on Rightmove. Whether that means anything is anyone’s guess but there aren’t many teams who can afford him or need a top keeper.

8.) 16 Apr 2024 23:55:32
What? For Ali or for his house @Ron?

9.) 17 Apr 2024 06:40:09
His house (just kidding )

10.) 17 Apr 2024 08:38:30
Articles say he bought another a while back any work/ improvements
No doubt finished so ready to live in he's now selling the old one tho he should have rented it to mbappe.

11.) 18 Apr 2024 12:37:51
He is moving into a new house, going nowhere.

02 Apr 2024 12:19:10
Lots of unsubstantiated gossip about Amorim to replace JK so 1.Do you have anything more concrete on him ie does he want to come as he has a preferential release clause for LFC and 2. Would in your opinion he be a better fit than De Zerbi?

{Ed002's Note - I think he would be open to the move but why would he have a preferential buy out clause for Liverpool? Both he an de Zerbi have good and growing reputations - hence the strong interest in him.}

1.) 02 Apr 2024 14:33:36
He might want to go to Barcelona.

2.) 02 Apr 2024 17:23:52
I think Amorim will be coming to LFC. Why else would FSG hire a former sporting employee? No smoke without fire and all that. If it is Amorim, hopefully he can bring Ugarte with him ?.

3.) 02 Apr 2024 17:47:31
Ugarte plays for psg now bulk.

4.) 02 Apr 2024 18:57:32
I think Amorim is coming here, judging by Ornstein’s comments, and he’s rarely ever wrong. He as good as wrote off De Zerbi and said Amorim was a very strong contender.

5.) 02 Apr 2024 19:18:28
Thanks dhfc, had a proper brain fart there.

6.) 02 Apr 2024 20:01:27
I find that sad to be honest. You clearly haven't seen Ugarte play for almost a year as he joined PSG last summer yet you still want us to sign him. Just shows how some people just want a shiny new toy every summer.

7.) 02 Apr 2024 21:41:00
Amorim looks like the 1, apparently 15 to 20 mill release clause to a European side. Fits the bill, very enthuastuc manager with a personality. Gutted Alonso didn’t take it up but I’m all in for Amorim now. However reports from guiiem balague says Alonso will manage Liverpool wtf is going on, get it done gag and soon.

8.) 03 Apr 2024 06:47:08
We might not need the "dynasty" manager - a good experienced hand on the wheel for a year or two wouldn't be such a bad thing with the structure of the club as is. Zidane ftw.

9.) 03 Apr 2024 10:08:09
The Independent saying Barcelona are stepping up efforts to sign him.

10.) 03 Apr 2024 11:34:59
David Ornstein has said Ruben Amorim is first choice and might have been first choice all along. Apparently FSG were aware Alonso was likely to stay at Bayer Leverkusen as that was the communication weeks ago. It was just the outside noice (media) that were acting like he was the first and only option for Liverpool. Oh, and thankfully Ornstein has completely ruled out De Zerbi.

Also, Pedro Sepulveda who is meant to be the Portuguese David Ornstein or Fabrizio Romano has confirmed Amorim is first choice and talks have already began. According to him talks are positive and if we pay the release clause which is around €15 million, he will become our new manager. Another rumour that was going around the last few days is that Barcelona have made a move for Amorim. As of this morning, Sepulveda has ruled out Barcelona
and said we are leading the race.

Anyways, I have learnt my lesson with Bellingham, Caicedo and Alonso not to think anything is a given until it has been officially signed and announced by the club. But I’ve got my fingers crossed because Amorim is a class act.

11.) 03 Apr 2024 13:57:02
Thunderbird 2. How does my post translate into me wanting a shiny new toy each summer? I happen to want him as he's class, and just so happens to play in a position we need. Or rather needed (taking into consideration the performances of Endo) . We also need defensive reinforcements, so does that mean its sad for desiring that, or that they would be a shiny new toy as well? I swear people just come on here sometimes to jump on others posts.

12.) 03 Apr 2024 16:31:05
You clearly haven't seen him play for almost a year, how do you know he is class? He could be having a terrible season, he could have broken his leg for all you know.

13.) 03 Apr 2024 20:43:57
He's class based on what i have seen of him. It's irrelevant if he's having a stinker of a season or not. I haven't seen many players such as Chielsa for over a year either but you know he's class as well. You're just finding something/ anything pointless to bitch about my post about. Give it a rest lad.

21 Mar 2024 22:40:40
Any substance in the rumours Rayan Aït-Nouri from Wolves?

{Ed002's Note - Rayan Ait-Nouri (LWB) Barcelona's interest in Ait-Nouri has likely moved on as they focus on another.The player is on the list of LB options Chelsea are considering but they have a far preferred option. Potential option for Arsenal who need to bolster the position or Liverpool if they look to upgrade on Robertson although his injury issues seem to now be behind him. PSG have declared an interest in Ait-Nouri to replace Kurzawa and it is where his agent would like him to move to - but he would not be first pick.}

1.) 22 Mar 2024 10:38:24
Is there any interest in Robertson Ed?

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of any interest nor in Liverpool looking to sell him as they have other priorities to address.}

2.) 22 Mar 2024 11:35:46
Hi Ed002,

Given the emergence of Quansah, Bradley, Clark, McConnel, Danns and Bajcetic, would the club still need to go into the market?

{Ed002's Note - Yes, I would expect the club to still look to specific priorities such as replacing Salah, perhaps another goalkeeper, deciding what to do with the likes of Sepp van den Berg who is doing very well on loan and maybe replacing Diaz. Then there is the difficult situation of DM - keep Endo and Bajcetic or upgrade? Perhaps the youngsters could avoid the need to replace Thiago Alcantara - I am not so sure.}

3.) 22 Mar 2024 11:57:51
Diaz upgrade is needed even if salha stays would go all in for vini if real get m app and build team round him.

4.) 22 Mar 2024 12:07:39
Thank you Ed002

I think we need an attacker who can play LW/ RW, a DM so we can loan Baj or replace Endo and a CB to eventually replace Vvd.

{Ed002's Note - I think there is reasonable depth on the LW but a RW, ideally left-footed continues to be the priority. The DM position is the one Liverpool have contuned to search for without much luck. With Matip off I rather doubt VvD will be leaving this summer.}

5.) 22 Mar 2024 12:55:01
Vinicius Jnr at Liverpool more dreaming like with Mbappe and Jude. We make players into stars we don’t sign ready made stars.

6.) 22 Mar 2024 17:40:36
Madrid wouldn’t sell Vinicius but I wonder if Rodrygo would become available with Endrick and Mbappe signing.

7.) 22 Mar 2024 17:57:42
Replacing Salah and Diaz in one window sounds like a lot of work.

8.) 22 Mar 2024 19:32:43
It would speak volumes about the character of AitNouri if after dedicating years to learning how to understand the accent in Wolverhampton he upped and moved to Liverpool of all places! ?.

9.) 22 Mar 2024 20:29:43
Salah has intimated that he is up for renewing again, no?
I wonder if Eddie and the club would maintain his current wage on a new contract. He is a 7 season wonder, with no indication that he is going to stop scoring 20 a season anytime soon, so maybe some young competition is the best way for now.

Why would we sell Diaz, when he has been the best player on the pitch on numerous occasions? Does he want to leave already?

Why on earth would we look to replace Endo, a legend in the making, and Baj, a top class young player? I for one wanted Caicedo and yet couldn't have been more misguided considering how good Endo has been. Endo could play on for 4/ 5 years at this level.

I'd like to see a High level CB brought in to replace Matip if Sepp is not to be given a chance, but our youth set up and its riches should be given priority.

10.) 22 Mar 2024 16:34:35
Eds, it is more a case of supplementing Endo or replacing him outright? Or is Endo a filler until Bajetic get's back to fitness and experience?

{Ed002's Note - It is about having a DM player who can excel.}

11.) 22 Mar 2024 21:31:25
It depends what you mean by excel though.

With Endo finding his feet, so to speak, our defence looks solid and our attacking midfield options have been freed up to actually attack (esp. Macca) . He also seems to instil the team with a bit more self confidence and VVD, Joe, Ibou and young Quansah all look like they have benefitted from having him playing in front of them. The first three seem a lot happier this season than last. I think you could make a good case that the team is excelling even if Endo, himself, will never be mentioned as a generational talent, as the current ‘buzz phrase’ would have it.

12.) 22 Mar 2024 23:48:48
Endo brings terrific defensive cover but less in the way of creativity. It is noticable how opposition players don't always close him down when he is in possession as they know he will not hurt them with a killer pass or drive through dribbling.

Ideally we need a DM who is a monster tackling and also with real pace to cover the counter attack. Someone who is comfortable dropping into a back three and possesses an offensive threat.

Maybe Bajcetic can be the solution.

Fabinho was amazing in his prime!

{Ed001's Note - and yet Endo has played a number of killer passes since joining.}

13.) 23 Mar 2024 04:05:03
Curious Ed1, who out there that you think can be a replacement for VVD in the future? I know you are a fan of both Saliba and Gvardiol, but both are never going to happen. Someone that maybe realistic option for Liv?

{Ed001's Note - with the changes coming to PSR, it might well have to be someone from the academy. Quansah has a good chance of being the long term replacement. Other than that, I don't really see any outstanding youngsters ready to step up. Lots of good ones out there, but none that look to be next level at the moment.}

14.) 23 Mar 2024 07:02:06
Hi Ed001,

Would you assume that transfers would be on hold until the new manager is appointed who will obviously have his/ her own targets in mind?

Having said that, what are your thoughts on Endo's lack of pace and is there is real need to upgrade in that position?

I like the look of Quansah and for me, he is the Matip replacement.

My opinion is that Tsimikas will be sold and probably a LCB/ LB will be bought; a RW/ RF and a DM. Question is, who will that be.

Rob.

{Ed001's Note - the whole point of the new set up is that the manager shouldn't really make a lot of difference to transfer plans.

I can't believe people are making up excuses to want to change Endo after his performances. This pace bollox is the latest. All because people want a shiny new toy that costs lots, rather than just someone who is damn good at the job.}

15.) 23 Mar 2024 09:00:06
I’d be amazed if the club went out and spent money on a new DM because Endo has been outstanding and up there with Rodri. we have Bajcetic plus Trent who could also cover and even Gomez has played there this season. Surly we only spend on replacing players that are leaving.

16.) 22 Mar 2024 21:11:11
Hi Ed002

Do you know if we retain any interest in Andre Trindade, Khephren Thuram or Alan Varela?

. or is there anyone else on the radar?

Thanks in advance.

{Ed002's Note - Andre Trindade (DM) Recommended to Liverpool as Fabinho cover a couple of years ago but their interest has only come to the fore with Fabinho departing, but they may well have dropped the ball on this one now and stepped back. Arsenal have scouted the player and may just make a move with Edu being praised as being more respectful than a representative of another club, but I would think such a move unlikely. Prior interest of Barcelona and Braga has gone. I would not totally rule out Napoli but they may be some way off meeting the transfer fee or indeed Manchester United who will need a Casemiro replacement. Manchester City will need a Phillips replacement and may also make an offer. Fulham are keen to take him if Bayern Munich return and they lose Palinha - Fulham have worked on deal to overcome the issue of Fluminense only owning 80% of his rights and have agreed a fee with Fluminense, so it is still in the hands of the player to decide if he wants to move to Fulham or not, but it will only happen should Palhinho leave in the summer. Atletico offer an option.
Alan Varela (DM) Barcelona may offer a profit to Porto and a player in exchange. PSG has a declared interest. An option for Manchester City to replace Phillips, but not first choice although they have spoken with Porto. Liverpool may provide an option having sent scouts but there is no declared interest. Dortmund will not match his buy out clause. Porto has no interest in selling the player who only joined them in the summer of 2023 unless someone offered his buy out clause in a single payment, then the player will be consulted.
Khephren Thuram (DM/CM) Nice felt they were messed around by clubs last summer and then the player picked up an injury. Interest of Spurs and, in particular, Juventus remains but Liverpool will look to other options. Interest of Newcastle will likely of fallen away. If interest further grows his price will rise and the club would sell given the emergence of Alexis Beka Beka regardless of impressive youngster Reda Belahyane being sold to Verona. Nice do not want to sell and again a move to OLd Trafford will not be welcomed by the Nice supporters. Real Madrid have him on a list of potential additions given they are facing midfield departures in the summer - and I would not rule them, or indeed Manchester City, out. Player wants PSG but they have no interest at this time - but his representative is pushing PSG as well as Real Madrid and will encourage the player to wait and see what happens.

Liverpool do continue to scout DM players.}

17.) 22 Mar 2024 21:36:39
Do Liverpool have Jaden Philogene on their list of forward targets? Having a good season! Appreciate he mostly plays LW but appears to be versatile.

I believe there was interest before he moved to Hull.

Much thanks.

{Ed002's Note - Jaden Philogene (LW) Doing well enough to attract the interest of Crystal Palace and Spurs. Aston Villa have a buy-back option but I cannot see the player being interested.}

18.) 23 Mar 2024 07:19:57
Wouldn’t it make sense using TAA in DM?
Endo, Baj and TAA surely offers enough in that position,
TAA can also play other positions obviously but I think buying in that position is a waste of money.
Of course a new manager might play a different style or system like Alonso does.
But as things stand I’d prefer we focus on a left footed CB and replace any stars that may leave.

{Ed002's Note - Alexander Arnold is not a DM player.}

19.) 23 Mar 2024 09:38:34
From what I see a need for in our squad going forward, is genuine left footed players.
I could probably count on one hand, and still have fingers left, of our lack of our left footed out field players.

20.) 23 Mar 2024 10:23:42
Diomande at Sporting ed? Looks a great long term Virgil replacement.

{Ed001's Note - how can you tell? He plays in a back 3 and plays in Portugal where I could manage to look decent. Hell Sebastian Coates is one of the stars centre-backs there.}

21.) 23 Mar 2024 11:01:23
The squad is good, but it’s not good enough for Prem and Champions League next season
To plod along in yes, but assuming we want to win them both? Need more top players.

{Ed077's Note - In what positions? As starters or rotation options?

22.) 23 Mar 2024 11:04:25
What about Lenny Yoro Ed1? Seems like a lot of top clubs is looking to add him into their squad. Must be highly rated to be look at by many high end clubs.

{Ed001's Note - not seen him play yet sorry.}

23.) 23 Mar 2024 12:09:49
Yoro, Kerkez and Bakayoko would be good targets for me. We dropped the ball on Moscardo imo.

I’m sure Chelsea, PSG and Real will get them all though.

24.) 23 Mar 2024 12:28:31
I think this is the best squad we have had under klopp. If Matip leaves another cb. maybe cover for mo too. To say we are plodding along I hope we plod like this next season.

25.) 23 Mar 2024 16:49:16
We don't need any midfielders. We already have loads, literally more than we will realistically be able to keep happy with game time to cover all positions. The only position we are weak is RW with no backup or continuity for Salah, that's literally it. We have at least two excellent options for every other position. Klopp is leaving an exceptionally strong squad behind for his successor.

26.) 23 Mar 2024 21:53:07
ed002 are we interested in Ezequiel Fernandez still and florentino luis?

{Ed002's Note - Ezequiel Fernandez (DM) After losing out on Boca youngster Alan Varela, Benfica have turned to another Boca youngster, Ezequiel Fernandez, as a potential Florentino replacement - Fernandez is also interesting Milan, Arsenal and Liverpool who had him scouted by an ex-PL player who is now a very high-end scout. Unlikely to be available until next January unless paying well over the odds.

FL can be forgotten.}

Unless I was watching a completely different game last night we were worryingly bullied and battered in defence and wouldn’t have scored if we played all night? Salah is a shadow of his former self and was shockingly awful yet again - Nunez has no touch and no composure and plays like a Sunday pub team forward! All VVD wanted to do was moan about an early kick off time rather than take responsibility for being in Calvert Lewis’s pocket all night! ?.

Hi Eds in your opinion would Slots appointment secure further contracts for Virj and Trent? And are there any foundations in rumours of Diaz heading to Barcelona for circa £100mill plus as thought they were under financial constraints and Salah to Saudi for a similar amount? I’d personally live to see us go all out for Isak as again Arsenal and Barcelona are sniffing him out - any chance? ??.

{Ed002's Note - The appointment of a coach will have no bearing on contracts wjich will need to be dealt with by Michael Edwards. I am not aware of any £100M offer for Diaz but there may be an opportunity for a part echange. There will be an offer from Michael Emanalo for Salah. Isak is of no interest to Liverpool.}

Mo is already on the plane to Saudi imo and has been poor for a long time now and a shadow of his former self so cash in now and I’d love to see Isak at Anfield! Darwin is proving not to be the goal scoring answer sadly as much as the fans love him. Different manager and different system might give him a reprieve ??.
