Just watching Chelsea now and I was wondering if they would have any kind of first dibs over a permanent transfer for Joao Felix? If not, and if he proves himself to be suited to the Premier League over the next few months. I think it might be worth us throwing a bid in, he would be the perfect profile of player to replace Firmino long-term.
{Ed002's Note - there is no option to buy but Chelsea have been given a price as Felix has fallen out with the coach. Liverpool are not showing an interest at this time.}

Ed002 from what I had seen of him I did no get what the big thing is, but his first 2 games for Chelsea I think he has looked very good apart from that silly challenge.
{Ed002's Note - He is a very good player - we will see what happens.
2.) 11 Feb 2023 18:05:36
I said exactly this about a month ago. Really good player completely wasted at Athletico. Perfect Bobby replacement unfortunately we've already signed our forwards and any money we get will need to go on the midfield.
3.) 11 Feb 2023 18:12:36
Wrong page Ed for this bit do you think Mount will look to move on, are we interested?
{Ed002's Note - I would think agreement will be reached over a new contract but the issue is the demands from his representatives. One club has asked Chelsea about him but it is not Liverpool.}
4.) 11 Feb 2023 20:22:48
Chelsea have Nkunku coming in surely they don’t need both? Felix for me is the perfect Firmino successor. Nkunku would have been up there too.
5.) 12 Feb 2023 08:11:23
Real Madrid might be interested in him this summer….
6.) 12 Feb 2023 09:16:29
He’s a fantastic player but I can see him wanting champions league. I think he’ll end up at Chelsea or abroad.
{Ed025's Note - if he wants CL football L8 then he certainly wont be going to chelsea mate..
7.) 12 Feb 2023 09:41:42
Or Liverpool.
{Ed025's Note - i think you might be right gaga..
8.) 12 Feb 2023 09:05:31
I’ve seen a few rumours about Liverpool interest in Gvardiol this morning. Is it true that Leipzig turned down 90mill euros in the summer eds2? If so I can’t see Liverpool spending that kind of money although I’d say he is perfect for us.
{Ed002's Note - They have rejected two significant offers from another side with two sides still wanting further talks.}
9.) 12 Feb 2023 11:07:45
I'd By Gvardiol before Id buy Bellingham.
30 Jan 2023 13:35:28
If Southampton were to be relegated surely Romeo Lavia would become available. Would there be any possibility of us making a move? We haven't bought anyone from Southampton for a while so we're probably due one.
{Ed002's Note - No. Other clubs are interested but not Liverpool.}
29 Dec 2022 16:16:05
Seen a few (questionable) sources suggesting we are working on Caicedo behind the scenes and things could be over the line very soon. I'd like to believe its true, can anyone shed any light?
1.) 29 Dec 2022 16:37:45
If we are going to pay 50+m for a player with one decent season in a low pressure side, our scouts and stats folks must be certain.
What do those in the know think of this guy?
2.) 29 Dec 2022 16:46:32
He's played a full season in Ecuador at high altitude, once he's on Jurgen's PEDs he'll be able to run 100km in one game - thus reducing the need to sign any more midfielders when he can do the work of three. Bargain.
3.) 29 Dec 2022 16:49:45
Hope is true. Young, strong, tenacious and good on the ball. He has all the attributes we need to revive this midfield for the second half of the season. Always been impressed whenever I watch Brighton play.
4.) 29 Dec 2022 16:53:41
Spaceman he’s excellent. Every time he plays for Brighton he’s by far the standout player.
Can play in the DM role and CM role. Reminds me of a Leicester Kante, bags of energy, fast and is strong in the tackle.
Surprisingly good on the ball also, very good dribbler and press resistant. Could work a bit more on his passing but he would be a fantastic signing and for me is exactly what Liverpool are missing in the midfield. At 21 he’s also got bags of potential, think he will become a truly special player. Think he would largely solve our midfield issues as that’s down to a relative lack of energy and pace.
Really really hope it happens. I’m a big fan (in case you can’t tell)!
5.) 29 Dec 2022 16:57:11
That is some praise MonkeyMad. I read elsewhere that he can also play CB and in one of the full back positions, can anyone corroborate this?
He sounds like a total football utility don.
6.) 29 Dec 2022 17:22:00
Would be a great signing. Gives us the legs in middle of park we've been missing all season.
7.) 29 Dec 2022 18:19:00
At the rumoured £70mill that Brighton want I don’t see it happening and to be honest I don’t think he’s worth that much money.
8.) 29 Dec 2022 18:38:47
jordz, £70m on Caicedo would be better than £45m on Amrabat, given their comparative ages, all round ability, mobility (seriously, Amrabat moves as nimbly as a tank), tactical flexibility (Caicedo can play both box to box and holding role), pace, technique, and the fact that Caicedo is a known quantity in the premier league. There’s a gaping hole in our midfield and it’s not going to be easy to fix on the cheap.
9.) 29 Dec 2022 18:40:01
Apparently Chelsea in for him now.
10.) 29 Dec 2022 18:52:12
60m in this days money for a cm who could be in the main team for 9yrs is nottin!
He’s top quality!
11.) 29 Dec 2022 19:38:59
I know lots of posters point out that Mc Allister, Caicedo, Enzo etc were cheap buys from South America, and we'd be fools to pay big money 1 -2 years later if we can go shopping there. The problem is of course, even if well scouted, only 5% of these players actually excel. At our level, in our current predicament, you have to buy proven talent. Which means demand from elsewhere. Which means market value. Which means £50m minimum for a top four player.
12.) 29 Dec 2022 19:28:45
If we want to make a good fist of rescuing this season then we need him in this window.
If we’re happy with a Wenger Cup scrap then we can continue to wait for these midfield unicorns that we’ve written off seasons for.
13.) 29 Dec 2022 19:42:20
I'm with many on amrabat. The other names we are linked with are way better and more importantly, more mobile. He s not for me. Caciedo would be awesome in my opinion. One of my favorites. If we got him and Bellingham in the next two windows it would be absolutely crazy. Getting ahead of myself. Caciedo on his own excites me massively for the future. I really really hope this is true but probably won't be. Seems too good.
14.) 29 Dec 2022 19:44:38
Interesting that Fab and Hendo played so well recently, it's almost as if they knew someone good was incoming.
Pep L will get Moises on the red bull and he will be running through McFred as if they are cardboard cut outs.
This bloke can part the UTD midfield like Moses parted the red sea.
What an incredible boost these two high quality young players will be to a squad. Combined with the existing youngsters that are pushing for starts, we will be in rude health.
15.) 29 Dec 2022 19:58:48
He sounds like some player. A replacement for Gini?
16.) 29 Dec 2022 20:09:59
Pelican, we need a midfielder of his type either way. Any one of him, Ibrahim Sangare, Kouadio Koné or even Kephren Thuram or Yunus Musah would be decent signings. I think even Mac Allister is worth a look as he’s a busy midfielder who puts in, has good technique and also isn’t afraid of putting the boot in.
17.) 30 Dec 2022 04:14:21
we need a runner in midfield. They don't even really need to be good at football (lol), we need someone to keep the engine running to allow fabs, thiago/ elliot to do their bits.
18.) 30 Dec 2022 07:52:11
So can Moises play in any of the MF positions?
I can see why people are excited about this guy, over someone like Rice.
20 Mar 2023 08:27:12
To be fair to Xabi, he only left us because Rafa tried to sell him for Gareth Barry. In all fairness it was nice for him to even give us another season after that - probably the worst insult he's ever had.
16 Mar 2023 15:47:08
Valencia probably do.
28 Feb 2023 09:54:27
This is very left-field and feel free to bite my head off, but I wonder if City would let John Stones go? He'd be an adequate backup and would get more minutes than he has there, but equally if circumstances meant he had to play every game he is good enough to do that as well. Homegrown option too.
21 Feb 2023 09:20:10
I don't think you can put Ward Prowse and Maddison in the same sentence. Ward Prowse is a nothing bottom half midfielder who can strike a good free kick. Maddison is a player who has always had the talent to go to the very top, but struggled for consistency and overall influence in games until now (similar story with Rashford) .
{Ed001's Note - Maddison is nothing like Rashford. Rashford never missed training because he was too drunk from the night before to make it in. And then do it again and again.}
13 Feb 2023 10:50:39
Ragnick being a bad manager doesn't make him a bad sporting director, it's a completely different job, and one that he has been excellent at previously. United have a clueless board and it was a ridiculous appointment, that's not his fault.
