Y.N.W.A Thread III: Enter 'The Normal One'

[Jack_Napier]

Agree mate, I have plenty of faith Klopp will get it right. Owners will back him as well 100% IMO, they've done so in the past with BR.

 

[lolesi]

Rumour that we have agreed a transfer fee for Hector. Now just discussing personal terms.

 

[cb4]

He is a ver astute purchase.

Hector Matip and Karius for under 20mil with Sakho and Gomez coming back.

Need a DM a CM and 2 wingers now.

 

[cb4]

An account I follow closely on twitter has us and Athletico battling it out for Gotze.

 

[Mogsheen Jadwat]

Wont be much of a battle if so, am has everything going for them

Except losing simeone.

 

[lolesi]

A. Madrid ? Yikes ... Wish you said Swansea or Hamburg

 

[Lemon Squash]

Sighhhhhhh we are no chance.

For those interested, overnight, former Liverpool defender Daniel Agger announced his retirement. Poor bugger's injury woes followed him back to Brondby so he's decided to pull the plug.

Reports that Thomas Vermaelen is a target, along with one of Edison Cavani (who has stalled on signing an extension with PSG) or Gonzalo Higuain. The reports about Cavani state he wants to play in a more competitive league than the French 1st Division, and that both he and his family are keen on a move to England.

One report about Higuain though has stated that Klopp has jetted off to the Copa America to watch Higuain and persuade him to join LFC.

 

[Mogsheen Jadwat]

We will get neither Higuain or Cavani. It doesnt make any sense on any level:

1) We don't have the money to be spending 40-50mill plus on a striker
2) That is not Klopp's style, how many ready made players did he buy at Dortmund, and for how much?
3) Liverpool needs a striker that is fit and scores goals, therefore this transfer would not make any sense based on our general approach.

Reports are coming in that Liverpool have released Kolo Toure. They were willing to offer him a coaching role but he wants to keep playing so he is gone.

Besiktas are apparently interested in Martin Skrtel. Source - http://www.espnfc.com/story/2889685...eave-by-liverpool-as-contract-expires-sources

Such a shame. Always liked the guy.

Sucks about Kolo. Yeah he is getting a bit old, but was usually one of our best when he played.

 

[lolesi]

Kolo was a legend. But, the right call was made.

Good luck mate !

Joao Teixeira declined re-signing with Liverpool, he has signed with Porto on a 4 year deal.

John Arne Riise has retired at the grand "old" age of 35.

Reports that target Piotr Zielinski from Udinese wants to move to Liverpool are abounding. Our main competition for his signature, Napoli believe it after their Chairman came out and stated it. Source - http://www.espnfc.com/story/2892030...poli-for-liverpool-move-aurelio-de-laurentiis

Thoughts on Sadio Mane?

 

[saint.nick]

Allegedly has a poor attitude but is great on his day

 

[lolesi]

Can't see him having any attitude with Klopp. Won't last if he does.

Rumours indicating he will sign today. 30 mil

 

[lolesi]

I personally like it.. It gives us speed, width and goals. Width especially is something we desperately need!

A left back and defensive central midfielder would be nice now and I'm happy with that squad going forward.

 

[Mogsheen Jadwat]

Its really one of those hold your breath signings isnt it?

You can see what they're looking for in mane but at 30mill and the fact weve spent big at Southampton (again...) its hard not to be a little apprehensive.
