I think there's already the ed2 appreciation page. But seriously, how does ed2 know so much?
The info is accurate, really in the know, calling it months beforehand.
How on earth did ed2 have so many contacts, so much time to go through all the info, and does this for free here for so many people (and not just LFC fans)?
If ed2 were running a sports news outlet, you did put all others out of business with how slow, inaccurate, or even untrue most of their 'news' are.
How is it humanly possible for ed2 to do this?
{Ed002's Note - AI and Twitter.}

Ahhh. I got the twitter part but am stuck with goggle. Will try AI now and I shall be equally informed
Thanks for the tip!

Ed002 are you going to credit the fat kid from Bolton as your primary source, or are you going to leave it as ‘Twitter’?

Qns for ed002
With the Anfield Road stand almost complete, the stadium will be nearing 61,000 in capacity.
Just wondering are there any plans to expand the Kenny Daglish stand to add perhaps another 4000 seats? (I believe it was way back in 2000? Where about 20k were on wait list of season tickets and there were projections that Anfield can regularly host 65,000).
Not sure practically if it's feasible and financially sensible though. Thought to ask and see if you have any insights?
{Ed002's Note - No. It is not possible.}
1.) 16 Mar 2024 15:55:35
thanks for the reply. guess that's that for the expansion at least for now.
2.) 16 Mar 2024 16:10:42
sgynwa, as I understand it, we have reached our optimum capacity, without building a train station, in the local area and improving the infrastructure. Anyone who goes to games knows what a nightmare it is to get away after a match, so to add further capacity would just add to the problem, as things stands. Like most grounds in the country, they were built in an era when there were no cars.
3.) 16 Mar 2024 16:55:02
We should have done a ground share with Everton at Albert Dock. Could have been state of the art and internationally renowned. Would have been a great resource for the city. Would have stopped Everton getting points deduction too which may have helped them be less bitter, bringing the city together. Imagine all the people, living life in peace. You may say I’m a dreamer.
4.) 16 Mar 2024 19:12:46
Just a working class hero @stoneage ??.
5.) 16 Mar 2024 20:26:41
Not sure ed25 would want to share a ground with a premier league club ?.
{Ed025's Note - i actually advocated that years ago Ace, a joint one could have been the best in the world mate, but your tight fisted minge bag owners would sooner repair your tin shack that we gave you many moons ago.. :)
6.) 16 Mar 2024 21:59:58
Just imagine the spectacles that a joint stadium could produce. One week its Liverpool vs Barcelona, the next Everton vs Dagenham and Redbridge.
7.) 16 Mar 2024 22:03:43
Just out of interest, with this shared stadium nonsense, who would have disinfect it after the blues played?
That stink lingers.
8.) 17 Mar 2024 00:33:12
It’s never too late ed25.
{Ed025's Note - i think that ship has sailed aoe, it could have been a spectacular stadium though and for me would have brought the city together and more importantly the people, the national stadium of the north that could not only host football but other sports as well, concerts, shows and events that would be the envy of every big city worldwide...alas not everyone has my vision mate.. :)
9.) 17 Mar 2024 05:43:28
Don't Everton still owe rent after their moonlight flit from anfield.
{Ed025's Note - we felt sorry for you KC as you were playing on an old field with jumpers as goalposts mate, you were a charity case back then and we felt sorry for you.. :)
10.) 17 Mar 2024 07:29:40
For those born in and around Liverpool and those who have adopted it and love the city too, it would have been a great move.
I love Anfield to bits - so many great memories, good and bad, so many great times and so many, many funny moments - but we should be looking to the future of the club and, in the bigger picture, the economic future of the City.
We missed a really big chance for the club and the city which, in my honest opinion, is a genuine shame.
{Ed025's Note - absolutely WDW..
11.) 17 Mar 2024 07:43:30
I would rather gouge my own eyes out with a rusty fork than share a stadium with Everton, this was done to death years ago when Everton realised they didn’t have a carrot ? and they pushed for a shared stadium on Stanley Park when H&G started the I’ll fated scheme with Laing O’Rourke.
It was never meant to be, our rivalry is part of our heritage and the blues new stadium is amazing to be honest but it will never be blessed with silverware like Anfield!
{Ed025's Note - "rivalry is part of our heritage" is very true....the rest is garbage..
12.) 17 Mar 2024 10:09:18
I think the club will regret not agreeing to the joint stadium. It could have been the world’s best and sent Liverpool right to the top of the income chart. I know it’s not the main thing but you will never get the chance again.
The Kenny stand is already outdated as it the relatively small Kop.
13.) 17 Mar 2024 09:41:24
Would it or could it have been possible to build a super stadium @ stanley Park a travel down from Scotland and en route the hairs on the back of my neck stand a love the people also so friendly and talkative love the accent and to top it all off ma best mate whilst in the army was a scouser.
14.) 17 Mar 2024 13:03:10
Don’t think it’s looking good for expansion anytime soon, if ever actually. I believe there are issues with infrastructure capping the capacity but the big one is there isn’t room to make the stadium much bigger. The only way I think it would be possible would be to knock the Kop down and build a multi tier stand but it’s probably not financially viable and I think they will want to keep the Kop single tier with tradition. At least with the other 2 stands that have been expanded they could do it around the current stand so as to not affect capacity as the works are being done.
It’s a shame as we could sell out 80k regularly if not more and getting tickets for 60k is still a pain in the arse but I’m glad we have stayed at Anfield and I like the fact our stadium doesn’t look like the majority of big modern stadiums.
15.) 17 Mar 2024 13:22:58
Pretty crazy that while the world is talking about how special Anfield is and how the atmosphere discombobulates oppositions, that we're here talking about potentially sharing a new ground with Everton. Come on.
Staying at Anfield and developing in-situ was an excellent decision by FSG in my opinion. The mystique of Anfield is part of our identity. There's nothing like stepping out onto the stands on matchday - especially under the lights.
By all means start dialogue with all the parties involved in a potential expansion, but don't sell part of our identity and advantage for a soulless shared stadium. If we have to wait for FSG to sell before we explore the possibility of further expansion, then so be it. We have an amazing stadium now.
Plus, going into any kind of business venture with Everton is a terrible idea.
16.) 17 Mar 2024 08:38:58
The 1 big advantage liverpool fc have always had on any rival, certainly domestically, is that we play at anfield. its a fantastic stadium with a unique atmosphere when going gets tight. No doubt our trophy cabinet would be lighter if we played somewhere else.
Im not fsg biggest fan but them renovating anfield as opposed to moving i 120% agree with them.
Our stadium is envy of manys a opposition manager+team, why take away that. No disrespect to everton or ed25 but it would suit them much better than us.
17.) 17 Mar 2024 11:58:36
Ed025 I think it’s great on some aspects but derby day going to each others grounds adds to the game.
So not for me. I would never want to leave Anfield to move to a new stadium on our own or sharing it’s where our heart is.
Anfield could be further extended in the future with the kop it’s just the A road issue. As for the KD stand obviously it’s the houses behind and the mess with the houses bought behind the main stand. As for transport there is talk about opening the old line what would be close enough to make the ground eligible for a larger capacity.
If there is still a high demand for seats with the money in brings into the city with fans coming from all over the country and world am sure the council and club could sort out all issues.
{Ed025's Note - I just thought it would be great for the city Grino. Bring the supporters closer together and all that mate..
18.) 17 Mar 2024 13:37:48
I'am with you Ed it would be great for the, brilliant events could be put on bringing lots of needed revenue. As you say maybe it could have been around 80,000- 85,000 seats, split the costs more sustainable for both clubs.
{Ed025's Note - im with you Alf, i think we missed a trick there mate, imagine a stadium that was state of the art with great transport links and a credit to this great city that could have been the envy of every European club mate, all the top European finals and internationals as well as great music stars..it would have been great imo..
19.) 17 Mar 2024 14:11:08
Ed025 me and you talked about that before how we would love to go back to the mid 80s where it the city of Liverpool vs the world but like you said to me it’s gone to far now. And it looks it’s only getting worse with the younger generation.
{Ed025's Note - i wish we were wrong grino but unfortunately we are not mate, now i know we are talking utopia here but being nice to others should not be beyond the realms of possibility, but maybe im an old fuddy duddy and respect does not mean as much as it used to, its a sad old world my friend..
20.) 18 Mar 2024 00:52:32
By that same rationale why not just share with lots of teams in the northwest. Bring the whole north west together, bring cities together it can be state of the art with great transport links and host loads of events there, it would be the envy of everyone else to see how together the north west is, imagine United, Everton, Liverpool, city all sharing one stadium . Really would bring the people together. Great for the area.
21.) 20 Mar 2024 02:48:51
Everton didn't give Anfield to Liverpool, it's actually the other way round. Everton were John Houlding's tenants, and then he made his own team - Liverpool.
11 Aug 2023 22:03:36
So it's been quite a day.
Just some of my own thoughts:
1) if it were me, I did walk away from MC. Doesn't seem to have good personality, might turn out to be Mane or Keita and it did be very scary to be the latter after all the fun fair. I did rather not risk it especially since ed002 has stated there are still other DM options and enough time. And totally agree with ed025, let's have some self respect. It's not that his not a Liverpool fan at heart and all, most players don't end up playing for the clubs they love. It's about him openly saying he did hope to join Chelsea even after the accepted bid from Liverpool was openly disclosed; the way he handled it was just poor and we should look to be careful with his lack of maturity (more so than his lack of love for us) .
2) now that we know we have the money, here's to hoping we secure a DM and LCB at least before the window closes.
3) i'm not keen for another MF unless Thiago leaves, but midfield with the pressing will be the most tiring part of the team. So what do I know?
4) I do we hope also allow people like Nat Phillips to move on and build his career rather than pricing him out of a move if we deem we have enough cover.
So, who's next?
Which are the DMs we may look at?
Which LCB?
3 more weeks to go.
1.) 11 Aug 2023 22:53:09
We need a dm to come in, and be ready to start immediately. Not sure who that is.
2.) 11 Aug 2023 23:28:41
No way do we remove the bid.
I want to see if Chelsea overpay for both Lavia and Caicedo.
If they do, then fair enough. They wanted both players and we move on.
Their bid for Lavia is high.
As Ed mentioned they want both and I trust Ed but I want to see them pay those fees for both. Also it's fair to Brighton that they get paid at minimum the agreement they had with us.
3.) 11 Aug 2023 23:32:19
sgynwa,
To be fair, I don't think there is anything wrong with MC's personality. He is a pro, his work ethic on the field says a lot about his personality and Brighton say he is down to earth. What would it say about his personality if he picked us when he gave his word to Chelsea for months?
Moving on now, let's see how we recover from this.
4.) 11 Aug 2023 23:36:34
According to reports, Brighton are furious with caicedo’s agent for changing things last minute, when they have made it perfectly clear that the deadline for bids was Thursday…. and yet his agent was still trying to see what Chelsea wanted to do. Sounds like all he was after was large agent fee and caicedo a large signing on fee and salary! What a bunch of mercenaries!
5.) 12 Aug 2023 00:52:29
When I saw we had agreed the fee I was delighted. Im gutted tbh coz he's what we need. I know nearly all players are money motivated. Who wouldn't be? I think he's an amazing player. I just don't understand how we go from haggling over a couple million for klopps No1 choice to bidding over double for someone else Sour grapes i know but hopefully we dodged a bullet like Lee bowyer.
6.) 12 Aug 2023 01:14:29
We should walk away and move on to other targets quick as possible otherwise it will take them even longer to get use to the style of play and the team with no number 6 and leaking defense this season is not going to be any better.
7.) 12 Aug 2023 01:32:48
For all we know MC gave his word to Chelsea and he doesn’t want to break that.
8.) 12 Aug 2023 01:51:30
You are Right we should stop waiting for a player who doesn't want to come here. I hope we try for Kimmich or Florentino Luis.
9.) 12 Aug 2023 02:00:55
Well, Keita performance and work ethic on the field was amazing until he joined us
I rather we don’t experience that again, especially with our record signing. We have gotten a lot of our record signings wrong Caroll, Keita, we don’t need another.
10.) 12 Aug 2023 02:20:35
Caicedo went on strike in Jan to force a move to Arsenal. Showed his cards then. He'll be going on strike again if and when Barcelona and Madrid come calling. That was my first thought last night when it looked as tho we were getting him. Great player but immature and lacking in character for me. Glad we've avoided him. If you don't want to wear the LFC badge then I don't want u. Feel bad for Lavia at this point he was willing to come. I don't get how one is worth twice the other.
11.) 12 Aug 2023 04:07:29
I know it's not my money, but I really hope Liverpool pull out, or lose this to Chelsea.
111mil for him? I'd rather the club spend such amount on a superstar instead on a potentially good player.
12.) 12 Aug 2023 05:41:41
Couldnt care less at thus stage but one thing is clear, Chelsea are Bluffers.
13.) 12 Aug 2023 06:19:31
The only good thing about this Caicedo business for us Liverpool fans is that it shows the money is out there for us to spend on the right player. I would love us to go out and buy Valverde and use any other money on another defender.
14.) 12 Aug 2023 06:32:41
How can Chelsea not being flagged for Financial Fair Play after they bought Mudryk for 100 Mio, Enzo for 105 Mio and if it was happen 115 Mio for Caicedo.
Brainless for Caceido if finally he join Chelsea. How they manage and cancelling Tyler Adams's transfer, not giving Lukaku, Ziyech shirts number shows that they are heartless for a football player and don't have a good plan for facing EPL this season.
Liverpool should move on and found another targets such as Mikel Merino, Florentino Luis or Matheus Nunes, Koopmeiners for DM and Inacio, Geestruida, Guehi, Per Schuurs for CB.
Appreciate if Ed can share his thoughts about Liverpool
plans if Caceido and Lavia was move to the plastic club Chelsea.
{Ed001's Note - FFP is not one year and they have so far made a large profit on transfers this summer anyway. It is clear you don't understand FFP so please just forget about it.}
15.) 12 Aug 2023 06:46:35
Why can’t Chelsea spend the money if they have it and if their revenue allows for it? I’m sure they are well are of FPP and will observe it just as we will too. Nothing wrong in having a bigger pot of gold, we just need to grow ours and wise it wisely while we have it. Otherwise we did become Everton 2.0.
16.) 12 Aug 2023 07:10:35
I only have a very basic understanding of FFP but reading what people have written on here over the past couple of days makes me feel like an expert.
17.) 12 Aug 2023 08:00:49
Everyone needs to forget about Chelsea, I personally hope we go for Florentino Luis, but think his release clause is over 100m, not sure if that’s euros or pounds.
18.) 12 Aug 2023 08:26:42
This creates a bit of a siege mentality in the squad, in my opinion. Something good managers always look to do. It helps galvanise the squad and motivate them to prove the doubters wrong.
Not fussed whether we sign anyone or not now.
19.) 12 Aug 2023 09:54:37
Get what your saying Ron. but still need a couple atleast.
20.) 12 Aug 2023 10:30:11
Christ anyone would think MC and RL are the only players on the market. Could be a blessing, don’t forget MC downed tools in January because he couldn’t get his move to Arsenal to such an extent that De Zerbi wouldn’t play him until the transfer window closed. Klopp has always said that if a player doesn’t want to join Liverpool just because they did not make champions league for a season or two then they are not the right player for our club.
21.) 12 Aug 2023 10:44:21
@ Davey Sulls is voice of sanity, listen to him.
22.) 12 Aug 2023 10:45:46
The fact is, even after Caicedo tantrum, our transfer team did not announce new targets tell me Caicedo camp is just trying to squeeze for more.
23.) 12 Aug 2023 10:57:14
Don’t worry about what Chelsea’s are spending. Doesn’t concern us and isn’t exactly doing them much good is it?
24.) 12 Aug 2023 11:53:35
We are running out of time and options, seeing as we clearly had money in the bank, why were being so frugal when making bids for lavia? We should have just offered the £50m and lavia was keen to join us, we could have moved on to another target. Instead we are still trying salvage the caicedo deal. But Now it looks like Chelsea are going to get both caicedo and Lavia!
25.) 12 Aug 2023 12:53:24
Luiz is a risk at 120m. He may not settle.
07 Apr 2022 14:43:05
Romano just report Fabio Carvalho as done deal
Is this true?
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool were negotiating compensation with Fulham with a third party involved - I assume that they have now agreed.}
1.) 07 Apr 2022 16:33:59
Whao. We now have 3 young players in that position - Jones, Elliot, Carvalho.
Exciting!
Seems like Ox will be gone.
2.) 07 Apr 2022 16:40:32
5 year deal, medical done with Fulhams permission, no loan back and announcement in May supposedly.
3.) 07 Apr 2022 15:40:06
Will he come to us eds or do you see him being loaned back? Thanks.
4.) 07 Apr 2022 18:37:04
According to Yahoo it's a done deal at £5 million and he won't be going back on loan.
Ox could well be gone, Klopp said in an interview recently there would probably be players moving on in the summer to get more playing time.
5.) 07 Apr 2022 19:43:17
As indicated quite some time ago. He will come to us. £7.7m agreed including add-ons.
6.) 08 Apr 2022 09:33:24
What do you think Ox is worth. Perhaps £20million?
7.) 08 Apr 2022 13:57:05
We'd be lucky to get £10m.
8.) 09 Apr 2022 13:33:11
Yeah, I think it will be around £10m for Ox, might struggle to get rid with his wages being so high.
9.) 11 Apr 2022 21:51:49
Hi ed. is gleison bremer also on our shortlist player to add for the next season? Appreciate for your thoughts. Thank you.
{Ed002's Note - Gleison Bremer (CB) Carlo Ancelotti tried to take him to Napoli and also Everton. He could try again as an affordable option for Real Madrid. Spurs and Milan provide good options as Spurs look to upgrade on the CBs they have and Milan fear losing Alessio Romagnoli as a Free Agent. Again, he is of interest to Inter Milan who fear losing Alessandro Bastoni in the summer of 2022 and they offer perhaps the most attractive solutution. Previously of interest to Leicester and Liverpool, but both opted for others. Juventus have him on a list of options should they lose de LIgt in the summer but there are certainly a couple ahead of him. Chelsea have a pressing need to add CBs with players out of contract in the summer and could look to him as a cost-effective solution. Torino will look to a new contract to end thoughts of a move but that has not stopped clubs scouting him as they expect him to be available in the summer as he has so far refused a new contract. Bayern Munich have held discussions with Torino.
A CB is not a priority for Liverpool.}
01 Jun 2021 16:05:17
while we are at it for transfers, can anyone update when will we sign any of the following players?
- Pablo Aimar
- Simão Sabrosa
- Dani Alves
- David Villa
- JoaquÃn Sánchez
Also, any others that we have been waiting for the transfer finally be completed after the long wait?
{Ed0666's Note - I think Simao is still on the plane ready to take off no?

or that he had issues with flying?

1.) 18 May 2025 13:08:57
Spurs have a much better team than united, sg, plus they have a coach who has been working with them for a few years now. United have so many problems with a coach who is a poor fit for the current squad and loads of players who would be incredibly hard to shift on current wages and contracts that even if they got a huge cl payload I'm very skeptical that it would help them. Even their star young player mainoo has gone backwards massively this year, and garnacho barely looks like a saleable asset anymore, hojlund is much worse for them than Darwin has been for us.
Anyway, lack of money has never been a problem for them whether they qualify for Europe or not.
2.) 18 May 2025 16:53:09
You cannot allow United any room to breath. Whilst they are down leave them there. Champions League football gives them a lifeline they barely deserve. There shouldn’t be any part of any Liverpool fan who doesn’t want spurs to beat them.
As for the FA cup final - two rights and don’t make a wrong and they certainly aren’t equal. Henderson getting sent off changes that game dramatically, even at 1-0. It was a shocking decision.
3.) 18 May 2025 18:18:50
Agree Wassa
Spurs beating United impacts United’s ability to improve
Plus it means they have more trophies this season than Arteta
And the non decision to red card Henderson was appalling.
4.) 18 May 2025 19:11:06
I would think Everton and visiting fans alike will call it Bramley Moore.
Spurs missing Kulisevski and Maddison could be telling, something tells me Fernandes will be the difference on Wednesday. If they are taking bets id put a tenner on at least 1 goalkeeper howler.
5.) 18 May 2025 19:37:19
I’ll be shocked if spurs beat them. It’s a dead cert for anyone, including this Man Utd side, playing against those bottle jobs in a final.
6.) 18 May 2025 20:08:06
man utd are the luckiest team that's ever played on planet earth ever, and forever, no matter how bad they have been they have always had the luck, till that luck deserts them, they will always get the "rub of the green" most undeservedly.
Coventry City 3-0 down to 3-3, then a very borderline winner denied by VAR, Maddison just got a season ending injury, Son has not played lately and even if he comes back will be rusty, lady luck always falls their way.
7.) 18 May 2025 20:20:43
I actually fancy Spurs to win.
8.) 19 May 2025 09:25:04
@Wassa, I think there’s fun to be had if United do qualify for the CL - not least a couple of essays from Shappy on why they couldn’t beat the champions of . Lithuania and Lichtenstein.
11 May 2025 16:02:37
i've a curious question
how crap is the europa league this season? 2 clubs that hover just above the relegation zone are finalists! and they are still being whacked by mid table PL teams now.

Incredible isn't it?
Had the misfortune of watching some of the united game (recovering from a night our, long story ?) and the score really flattered them.
They were awful.

They're there simply cos UCL teams no longer drop into the UEL anymore. Imagine if City, Ac Milan et al had dropped into the UEL, neither will be finalists. Dreadful teams but I just hope Spurs lift it, if only to rub it in Arsenal's face and the Manc go empty-handed.

so the transfer window is opening so, and i guess we may see quite a fair bit of business
GK - kellerhen to move on, no incomings expected
LB - may see both being moved on? at least 1 starter in coming and maybe Owen Beck as understudy?
RB - with TAA moving, someone coming in to compete with Bradley?
CB - may see Konate move on, Quansah and Gomez perhaps too? Certainly will need a new starter at least if Konate moves
DM - personally feels Endo is good enough to deputise, not sure if Slot feels the same
CM - expect movement here as Jones and Eillot may be moved on, maybe McConnel can step up? but expect some business here
LW - If Diaz does move, expect Gakpo to be starter and maybe a new versatile incoming to compete and cover both LW / RW?
RW - Salah to be the main man still, Cheisa to move on?
ST - expect Nunez to move, Jota may stay as cover?
That may look like anything between 5 and 7 players in coming, waiting to see how things play out!

The Jones doubt here is crazy. He is a wonderful squad player. Maybe he is not a regular starter, but you need players like him. I have never heard a word of discontent about Jones from Slot or the staff, yet people think he is going to be moved on. Its almost laughable. And about Endo being good enough, while he is a really handy player to have, even in the Chelsea game there were a lot of moments when you saw why Slot doesn't start him. He is just not silky enough on the ball. And people will say but he did have a great turn that day, but that is what Grav does all the time. Its unrealistic to expect Endo to learn those skills at this point in his career, and if we get Stiller or someone, I definitely see him moving on.

I don’t think we will sign 7 players.
That would be very out of character. I can’t remember any transfer windows we have signed 7 first team players in recent memory.
4 top players coming in at defence, midfield and striker will be more than enough.
It’s all about quality not quantity. We have a fantastic team already.
3.) 11 May 2025 16:18:18
Sorry but Jones isn’t good enough. He’s nearly 25 and really hasn’t kicked on. He has more poor/ indifferent games than good ones. Just because he’s a local lad shouldn’t exempt him from fair and constructive criticism.
4.) 11 May 2025 16:22:17
Nunez is better as cover at least he is fit enough to play, no use having someone as a back up when they require one themselves. Jotas finished at Liverpool I think sadly.
5.) 11 May 2025 17:16:46
Urban myth Nunez defence is he tries really hard and links up plays.
Facts he’s the only player to be called out by the manager for effort and has the lowest pass completion in the last 2 seasons.
6.) 11 May 2025 18:34:25
Nunez can at least make the bench. You sign a first choice striker, he gets injured then what? Hope jota is in one of his few weeks of fitness?
7.) 11 May 2025 19:03:52
Yeah good point Sailor. Let’s keep a 86 mill record signing striker who doesn’t know the offside rule on the bench.
Sell Darwin and Jota and replace both.
8.) 11 May 2025 20:21:41
Curtis Jones is just 24, and won't be 25 until next january. He's also a full England international who can cover several roles and allows Slot to change lineups on the fly.
In addition, he's about to be the only scouser in our team, and has probed his love for the club time and time again.
Give it a break, you 'jones ain't good enough' brigade.

If Isak is too expensive then surely Cunha and Sesko are better options than Jota and Nunez. Nunez just has no game intelligence at all, it’s been three seasons now and can anyone honestly say we have seen improvement from him? Still gets caught offside all the time, doesn’t score enough abysmal at passing. Same for Jota, terrible control and passing and very injury prone. Has more game intelligence than Nunez, but the guy is constantly injured.
Not for me, hopefully Saudi league takes him and we can move on from that mistake, at least we will get money for this bad buy unlike Keita, who we got zilch for in terms of fee and effort.
Not saying we can guarantee Sesko or Cunha would be successful as every transfer is a gamble but I think it’s time to move both Nunez and Jota on.
05 Apr 2025 12:42:35
Wouldn't it be ironic if this happened:
Tark didn't get read carded and went on to contribute to Jota's goal with his poor clearance
Since he isn't suspended, he does on to score the winning goal against Arsenal.

And what would be even better is if he and his family get death threats from absolute morons who, no doubt, call themselves Liverpool fans.
29 Jan 2025 04:52:45
I posted? He did say?
Salah, here comes your multiple identities
Unless I’m not comprehending something?
25 Dec 2024 09:15:16
That’s sweet of you ed25
I’ll take that and I’m proud to call you a friend too
Hoping that you are having a great Christmas.
{Ed025's Note - cheers SG..
24 Dec 2024 23:31:42
You see Ed 25
Just like yourself, Sean Dyche is a closet red, hence he pulled out 2 0-0 masterclass to stop our closest rival
Say you love us
Merry Christmas.
{Ed025's Note - i cant force myself ever to say that SG, but i do like you mate, all the best my friend..
24 Nov 2024 16:23:45
unfortunately, as ed002 isn't here to quash the rumor, i'll have to believe that it has some legs
and i can explain why it may be possible
- RM needs a RB
- LFC wouldn't want to lose a key player on a free, especially to RM (Steve Mac 2.0 anyone? )
- AT was someone we had some interest in few seasons ago
- AT is not having a good time at RM
- LFC missed out on a MF in the summer
- because having some fee and player swap will help us feel better if TAA does really leave us, so we want to believe it
- because someone (dont know who though) reported it
- because there is no RTFP to read
so yea, i'm going to believe it! >, -.

Ahhh. I got the twitter part but am stuck with goggle. Will try AI now and I shall be equally informed
Thanks for the tip!
19 May 2025 15:07:05
He is no ed002
And ever since our legend went home, he’s been spousing randoms in hope of getting some right
As ed025 alludes, even a broken clock is right twice a day, so he’s about as accurate as that.
12 May 2025 00:42:26
Not ideal but can be and has been done before
Houllier bought 7 players in his first summer as the sole manager
The backline alone probably has 3 new players and a striker. So while it’s not ideal, it is possible we are seeing wholesale changes.
06 Apr 2025 07:46:34
Yeah, at one stage we were like that too
I know of fans who thought BR was the second coming of Shankly after the season we came second
They felt the way he spoke, the way he strolled On the pitch reminded them of Shanks
One had the charisma while the other, the charisma of David Brent
So yea, in desperation, we cling to anything.
06 Apr 2025 07:43:34
Wasn’t Baresi and Cannavaro the same height?
12 Mar 2025 20:02:38
yea, I didn't see Quansah doing anything wrong last night
on another day, his header goes in, we win, he becomes hero for the moment
on an even better day, Salah took his 2 chances, 3-0 up in tie, before we had the mistake to concede, Jota, finishes his header, 4-1 in the tie before half time, Endo comes on and seal the deal. but of course, none of that happened
as things stand, it'll probably be Quansah at RB and Konate / Endo at CB. not the worst really
just hope we rest up, win the EFL cup, and return from internationals to wrap the league up. it did still be a good season
do we need to strengthen the squad? for sure, and i am hoping Ward and Hughes starts waking up for those renewals and new recruitment
as to this new ucl format? still trying to make sense of it. on one hand you could say it is intended to reward the performers of the league phase to have lesser games and better draws, and maybe it did, but our experience was otherwise as we somehow ended up facing psg (a very strong team that didn't do as well in league phase), while some others face, in all objectivity, psv, brugge, which are evidently the weaker teams. but 120mins and can't score at home, this is entirely on us that we didn't deserve to go through.
