Stefan Bajetic on loan to Sociedad as part of a deal for Zubimendi?
Eds…could this be true as a sweetener?
Cheers!
{Ed002's Note - I don’t know anything of it but if Liverpool can add Zubinendi he needs to look for other options.}
1.) 09 Aug 2024 20:53:49
He was out best player during the poor second to last season under Klopp. I hope he is not sold.
2.) 09 Aug 2024 22:19:54
Really don’t think Bajcetic should be loaned out, he’s already a very good midfield squad option, young as he is.
3.) 09 Aug 2024 22:38:34
He won’t get much game time here if we buy another mf. Don’t lose him and don’t let him stagnate he needs to play to improve sounds like a great idea if true.
4.) 10 Aug 2024 00:00:50
@Vango, bit of an exaggeration about Baj. He showed a lot of promise but only featured in a handful of games. Not saying he isn’t any good because I think he was showing loads of potential before his injury but I think a loan out for a season to get some serious game time isn’t the worst option.
5.) 10 Aug 2024 01:09:04
@vango I think you mean the year before he never got a sniff last season.
6.) 10 Aug 2024 01:24:27
I agree with WDW3, lots of people going overboard about a player with 6 Premier League starts. He looked talented but our midfield was on its knees at the time, it wasn’t exactly difficult to stand out.
7.) 10 Aug 2024 01:30:28
The whole thing makes a lot of sense in my mind if Zubimendi wants to go to Barcelona as much as is suggested. Buy him, loan Stefan out to somewhere where he can get the experience, sell Zubi to Barcelona in a couple of years with Stefan ready to step in full time.
8.) 10 Aug 2024 01:33:05
WDW, absolutely agree.
9.) 10 Aug 2024 02:01:56
I do not understand the hype around Bajcetic whatsoever, at least for now anyway.
He played a games for us in season where we performed woefully and it had become clear that Klopp and Ljinders had neglected the midfield. He is known for a good piece of skill against Newcastle that, in fairness, did result in a goal but I believe that single moment is influencing views of Bajcetic more than it probably should.
He also lacks punctuality according to some sources on this site - not a good sign but young players and people in general take time to learn the rules of the workplace.
Would you rather have Bajcetic or Zubimendi at the base of our midfield going into the season? If you think the former, you’re deluding yourself.
{Ed001's Note - it is not according to some sources on this site - it is according to the official LFC site, where players have commented on how he is always late.}
10.) 10 Aug 2024 06:04:21
West Derby Wanderer3-Fair enough. Jurgen truly believed in him and he looked set to be the next to come through the ranks. A season on loan can't do any harm, and maybe Neyoni has made himself next in line.
11.) 10 Aug 2024 06:54:30
In fairness, Ed, you were the source I had in mind when saying the above.
{Ed001's Note - I have only referred to what the other players say about him. It is a very Spanish thing, so might not be seen as cause for concern, but it worries me. I want a player to be raring to go and not just in early, but to stay behind and work on his game after training. They are the ones you want.}
12.) 10 Aug 2024 07:00:35
A loan will do him the world of good after a year out with injury. Zubimendi is a far superior player at the minute and in my opinion is exactly what liverpool have been missing.
13.) 10 Aug 2024 08:33:22
Bajcetic seems to have become mythically good during his time away from the team. I've no doubt he's a good player but I don't think any of us have seen enough of him to talk about him as if he's already world class and the first name on the team sheet. A loan to a quality side will do him wonders and if he returns to us fit and healthy next season he'll still only be 20 - he's barely a kid!
14.) 10 Aug 2024 08:53:06
I highly doubt the plan is to splash 60mill on a player in the hope Barcelona will pay way more in a couple years. No club is going to do business like that - at least not if they want to stay in business.
15.) 10 Aug 2024 08:54:12
I wouldn’t loan him out if we can’t add a midfielder.
16.) 10 Aug 2024 08:54:43
I can see a future though where Zubi and badger are playing alongside each other.
17.) 10 Aug 2024 08:54:56
I think it’s a good idea. He’s clearly still growing and will struggle for fitness so why not let another team deal with that headache. He will get more experience of different training/ set ups and will probably grow up mentally as well.
18.) 10 Aug 2024 10:15:36
He’s not world class and he’s coming off an extended injury period.
He’s got all the skill you need to be world class but has he got the right mental and physical attributes?
We’ll wait and see….
19.) 10 Aug 2024 11:24:31
@Phil, you could say there is a precedent with buying and selling at a (mind boggling) print to Barca, with Couts.
20.) 10 Aug 2024 11:42:39
Baj is very talented but he needs to be playing esp. after going essentially a year without playing. If a loan is what he needs then, he should take it and go play actual games rather than sitting on the bench for majority of the season.
21.) 10 Aug 2024 12:53:35
WDW. Surely we could never be so lucky again. Certainly can’t rely upon Barcelona being so stupid again.
22.) 10 Aug 2024 14:34:14
Phil, PSG have offered an open cheque to Barcelona for Yamal, eventually they’ll relent. So yeah, it’s possible that history could repeat itself.
23.) 10 Aug 2024 14:34:48
I’d say the coutinho is a fluke precedent. Pretty much hasn’t happened again but also Coutinho was at a very cheap price compared to the apparent fee for Zubi.
24.) 10 Aug 2024 15:17:03
@Faith, I didn’t understand the amount they were willing to pay when we sold him and I still don’t now.
24 Jul 2024 10:16:31
Hi Ed: any serious interest from Liverpool in Matt O’Riley? …. cracking player with very high ceiling for improvement imo. Cheers!
{Ed002's Note - RTP.}
1.) 24 Jul 2024 12:01:40
Surely we’ve enough midfielders like him?
2.) 24 Jul 2024 12:02:46
I did search ‘Matt O’Riley’ and nothing came up but no worries, I’ll keep my fingers crossed :)
3.) 24 Jul 2024 16:02:39
I'll keep mine crossed he doesn't sign.
24 Jun 2024 20:52:06
Hey Ed2, is there any possibility of Liverpool signing Sucic?
Many thanks for your work on the site?.
{Ed002's Note - RBS want a new contract.}
1.) 25 Jun 2024 08:06:36
Thanks Ed, would have loved him with us.
2.) 25 Jun 2024 08:07:27
Pretty sure we don’t need another number 10.
3.) 25 Jun 2024 09:16:37
Wouldnt have had him down as a No.10.
18 May 2023 12:26:51
Hi Ed2; can I ask the reason we have no chance of Gvardiol?
As we obviously need a top class cab AND he’s a huge fan, now Bellingham is off - is there still just not enough money or is it something else?
Many thanks,
Agamemnon.
{Ed002's Note - He is not being sold this summer and there are other interested clubs, one wanting to negotiate a deal for next summer. Liverpoool are not involved at all.}
1.) 18 May 2023 14:04:26
If we are not involved or even interested in him Bellingham or Ivan Toney then I am seriously worried about where the club is going moving forward. We need to surround players like Trent with players of a similar level. He can not hold us together on his own and needs help. I think I am likely to be highly disappointed in the signings this summer. At least expectations won’t be too high I suppose.
{Ed002's Note - I have explained over and over about Gvardiol.}
2.) 18 May 2023 15:01:13
Stop buying all the paper talk and venting off here. So far we've signed nobody!
3.) 18 May 2023 15:06:36
Str8talker. are you OK? Do you need a cuddle? I do worry, reading some of your posts! Some total nonsense.
4.) 18 May 2023 15:47:42
If I was a betting man, I would say Ivan Toney is a no go ?
Although looking at the SPREAD of strikers available, ODDS are we have looked at him over the season ?
Sorry, like a pun ?.
5.) 18 May 2023 15:53:07
Str8talker, respect that you clearly love the club and are passionate about it. I do have to query your point about Toney though. He's just been banned from all football activity for 8 months!
I also think we were right to move on from Bellingham. It doesn't make financial sense in my opinion given our need to rebuild and bring down the average age of the squad.
I'm sure we'll still have a decent summer and be better next season. Think positive mate!
6.) 18 May 2023 15:55:31
Ivan Toney? Who can't play until January! Hilarious.
7.) 18 May 2023 18:06:06
Toney not joining nothing to see here.
8.) 18 May 2023 18:23:40
In fairness If next season is like this season then we don’t actually start playing until April so Toney coming in, in January would be ideal.
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool have no interest in Toney.}
9.) 18 May 2023 18:32:27
Ivan Toney isn’t suited to the way we play.
10.) 18 May 2023 18:48:28
More suited than Darwin.
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool have no interest in him.}
11.) 18 May 2023 18:57:31
Ed002 apologies mate my comment was a joke.
{Ed002's Note - OK.}
12.) 18 May 2023 20:32:09
Sr8talker, with the Toney logic we should probably put in bids for Rory Mcilroy, Rafa Nadal and hulk hogan.
Cheer up mate. It’s not your money that’s being spent, and if you have watched Liverpool for most of the season you will clearly see that Trent has not held the team together. For a large part of the season he was one of our worst performers. But we seem to forget that because he has been top class for the last 7 games. It was the 29 before that which were the problem.
13.) 18 May 2023 20:35:04
Ed02, do we have any interest in Ian Rush? He retired 25 years ago, but seeing we are now interested in banned players and ineligible ones, we should start looking at retired players as well. Also, is the sporting director post still vacant. I was thinking of applying.
14.) 19 May 2023 00:03:25
Why would we not be interested in a player who is still young and clearly talented who in all reality is only banned until January and when available can come in and be a major player? And anyway if you are all having a laugh and a joke the club already has a history of signing player who miss the first season in one way or another so go figure. I just like him that’s all there are not too many about let’s be honest and Darwin I have doubts will ever be the full polished striker a great asset yes but hit and miss will always be around with him. I have supported us for 36 years and have always moaned about certain incoming players most recently Jota who I had major doubts over but he has certainly surprised me with his contribution to the cause. So I would be quite happy to be proved wrong again, and just hope for our signings to help us move forward. Also on Gvardiol if we give Van Dijk next season and then bring him in would make sense, but nothing makes sense sometimes in football.
{Ed002's Note - There is nothing to stop Liverpool showing an interest - but they haven’t at this time.}
15.) 19 May 2023 20:51:27
Monty, Nadal would fit right in, he's injured atm.
05 May 2023 01:08:17
Ed2:
I know we drive you nuts and you love to toy with our tiny minds, but…is there a genuine chance we could sign Ugarte and MacAllister?
Thanks in advance for your reply, I’d love to know why you bother - you must have been a sniper or hit man.
{Ed002's Note - Alexis Mac Allister (CM/AM) Brighton are not looking to sell the player but are aware of interest from Borussia Dortmund, Juventus and, particularly, Atletico Madrid. Premier League clubs including Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Spurs have had scouts attending Brighton games to watch several players and have apparently all taken note of him. Manchester City are keen. Could be hugely expensive. I suspect Liverpool will look to an offer.
Manuel Ugarte (DM) Interest of Leeds went when Sporting refused to negotiate a reduction in his buy out clause and now want to give him a new contract and increase it. Wolves are still keen with Spurs and PSG also having shown an interest but none will meet his €60M buy out clause and Spurs whilst may have moved on to other targets, they could yet make a take it or leave it offer. Arsenal, Barcelona and Newcastle offer wildcard options and are keen. Liverpool have not approached Sporting but will likely have spoken with Mendes, who is pushing a Spurs move.}
1.) 05 May 2023 07:01:32
I disagree with the eds playing it down, he will be a Liverpool player, we have a good relationship with Brighton also, we are in advanced talk and he will be wearing red next season and not the Brighton away red.
2.) 05 May 2023 11:32:55
What makes you so sure. I think City will get him.
3.) 05 May 2023 12:46:45
Define "advanced talk".
4.) 05 May 2023 07:15:56
Why is he pushing a spurs move? Biggest pay day no doubt? Thanks.
{Ed002's Note - That is not the reason.}
5.) 05 May 2023 14:05:17
Flash The Red. ‘Advance talks’ is pretty self explanatory. Don’t think it needs to be defined.
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool are not in any talks with Brighton over Mac Allister.}
6.) 05 May 2023 15:43:50
Ed002, do you see any relationship between MacAllister and Mount for Liverpool? Is MacAllister the primary target for the summer and Mount an alternative, or is the interest in both unrelated?
I find Mount's situation at Chelsea very unpredictable and ambiguous.
Also, getting both would be very expensive.
{Ed002's Note - I would not try and muddy the interest in players. Liverpool were forced in to declaring an interest in Mount. The club are not in any negotiations with Brighton over Mac Aliiister but there is a good chance that an offer will be made.}
7.) 05 May 2023 16:05:01
So, that "advanced" then.
Obviously self explanatory.
8.) 05 May 2023 17:00:32
Flash the red are you serious to be explained what advanced means? Haha get a grip, I think I would believe Fabrizio Romano over Ed apparently to him we ain't signing anyone, I'd love to know his inside info and who his source is? Fabrizio's got good inside info and I just believe this will happen, I think we will have our new players pretty much unavailed at the same time, klopp wants his business done early, let all think positive and good things will come to fruition.
9.) 05 May 2023 18:06:47
ConorsBeard. Fabrizio probably comes on here to see what ED002 is saying. It's clear to see that Ed has a whole array of contacts and people who are "In the know", with the info he gives on here everyday. Its detail you won't find anywhere else.
I like Fabrizio but he's rarely first to report something. He merely repeats what another outlet or journalist has reported.
Signings will be made, and I'm sure ED002 will keep us posted as to what's happening on here, like he usually does!
10.) 05 May 2023 18:36:44
Joey96 you are a comic, get your head out mate you sound rather daft, a leading journalist having less info than an admin on a LFC sight? You sound about 12.
{Ed025's Note - the thing is CB is that hes right mate!, a lot of these journo,s play a guessing game and recycle others information, you only have to see sites like "newsnow" to see these charletan,s plying their trade mate, believe me ED002 is the oracle and provides the best and most accurate information around..
11.) 05 May 2023 19:01:10
What ed25 said.
{Ed025's Note - sometimes joey some posters need to put a face to a name and cant get past that, if you knew the circles ED002 moves in mate you would be astounded..
12.) 05 May 2023 19:46:28
Can’t believe the bare cheek of posters questioning Ed002, I’ve been on these pages, MU mainly, for many years and Ed002 always has it spot on, he’s not going to spout out blow by blow movement of what may or may not happen like a journo would and as a previous poster said and I think other Ed’s have said people come on this site to find out what’s happening and regurgitate it as their own. Big shout to Ed002 and all you Ed’s for the info and insight you provide us.
{Ed025's Note - its unbelievable WRD, we have both been on these pages for longer than we care to mention mate, but the one constant during those years is the amazing information and insight given by ED002, i go on a lot of forums and listen to journo,s all the time and have done for yonks, this guy is definitely No 1..
13.) 05 May 2023 20:21:38
So many posters can’t write “advanced talks”. It kind of made me chuckle. I got what you were getting at Flash. Your humour is not lost with me.
14.) 05 May 2023 20:25:29
I’d maybe suggest to Connors Beard that if he doesn’t agree or rate Eds 02, then he is wasting time on this “sight”
I’d say there is content suitable for Connor on Tw@tter.
15.) 05 May 2023 20:47:40
You have a well developed sense of humour Monty.
Maybe even an "advanced" sense of humour?
And as for Ed002, his insight on this site is out of sight.
And long may it continue.
16.) 05 May 2023 21:46:47
Yeah, I can imagine ed25!
Shoutout to him for all the FREE info.
And to you and all the other eds on here who make this a great forum!
{Ed025's Note - cheers mate..
17.) 05 May 2023 16:33:06
Thanks, Ed, have a great weekend!
{Ed002's Note - And you.}
18.) 05 May 2023 17:50:35
Ed2. Flash The Red was being facetious as he always is and asked to define ‘advanced talks’ which again I will reiterate is self pretty explanatory. I never said we were in advanced talks with Brighton over Mac Allister but thanks. I guess.
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool need to speak with Brighton to try and sign any of their players. There is no "done deal".}
19.) 05 May 2023 22:45:30
There is nothing more satisfying than when a smart ar*e poster can’t spell in order to make their point.
20.) 06 May 2023 06:35:29
Monty_1981 dyslexia is a real thing so if you get satisfaction from that then you float that boat, I retired at 40 so it doesn't make me stupid, have a nice day, oh and when we sign him I'll be back on, I may even demand a written apology in laminated form.
21.) 06 May 2023 08:39:42
It’s totally fine to have dyslexia mate, but don’t be a kn*b on the site please. Ed2 just passing on info and we should be grateful for it. We live in a world for a self entitlement and some times people forget to be grateful or kind. It’s okay to disagree with something someone says, but you called him out on his own site and tried to belittle him. Like I mentioned above, twitter is maybe a better battleground for you, if you are into arguing with strangers.
22.) 06 May 2023 20:27:24
"Advanced whoosh".
29 Oct 2024 18:11:15
Rigg does look a class act, I’ve watched him a fair bit and he does appear to have plenty of development potential despite being very good already. I’d be disappointed if Utd got him rather than us, but we can’t have everyone- just think he’d be more suited to us than the young players we have already.
As always, not all great young prospects in the lower tiers can swim in the very top league, it’s a tough school!
24 Jul 2024 12:02:46
I did search ‘Matt O’Riley’ and nothing came up but no worries, I’ll keep my fingers crossed :)
25 Jun 2024 08:06:36
Thanks Ed, would have loved him with us.
15 Jan 2022 01:37:33
Guys, remember we bought the worlds best goalie AND the worlds best centre back not so long ago and City/ PSG/ RM/ Barca were alive and kicking at the time!
There is a global C.V. and millions upon millions of people are dying…& unfortunately it’s affecting our owners finances…. but look at the history of their ownership, if they can strengthen us - they will.
They are smart business men and know Jurgen is only guaranteed to be here for another couple of years and he is the BEST manager, so they will try their best to. Support his rebuild - it’s in their interests, but if they can’t - they can’t.
A family member was commercial director of the FA years ago and went off to South Africa to run the World Cup for them, he has given me a small insight into the mechanics of football club ownership and the risks for owners appear to be simply terrifying, you would be laughed out of dragons den if you pitched the idea of ownership,
