Rumours that Balotelli to hold talks with Klopp, to bring him back .
Mino Raiola tells @SkySportsNewsHQ that his client Mario Balotelli may yet have a future at [HASHTAG]#lfc[/HASHTAG] and is planning talks with Jurgen Klopp
in other words his agent is talking about it and nothing to suggest Klopp has any interest in bringing him back
 
Balotelli is a ****ing cardboard cutout!
I genuinely consider him a worse buy than Carroll, at least there was a small chance that Carroll would become a good player for us, that was never the case with Balotelli imo utterly shoddy transfer from day one.

Its never gonna happen but if he does come back and klopp can somehow perform some kind of a personality transplant and manages to get him playing without the bullshit attitude and lack of effort then the German has power we simply cannot comprehend.
 
Not sure Bournemouth can lose with that...pretty cheap loan for a player who was considered very talented not long ago. Smacks of Delu at Everton and Bojan...hopefully it doesn't go as well.
 
Klopp connections. Anything is possible ...

Ter Stegen rumours are starting to gather as well.

We could have Shankly in charge and wouldn't make kroos go from starting for 1 of the 3 super clubs to a club struggling mid table in the prem.
Igboring fact he's probably on about 200k a week.

oh and he'd cost about 40m and have a host of other top clubs interested if he were available....

A year has passed since Steven Gerrard made the gut-wrenching decision to call time on his illustrious Liverpool career.
Happy and relaxed having enjoyed a first Christmas off with his family in two decades, the Kop icon has no regrets.
Instead he’s looking to the future with relish. 2016 promises to be another momentous year for the midfielder.
After a trip to Sydney with Liverpool Legends next week, he will return to California to start pre-season with Los Angeles Galaxy.
Retirement is likely to follow when his contract expires at the end of the 2016 Major League Soccer campaign.
He will continue as a pundit for BT Sport and it could also be the year when he makes the leap into coaching.

Steven Gerrard in the TV studio at Anfield
Currently working towards his UEFA A Licence, Gerrard spoke with Jurgen Klopp about a possible backroom role at Liverpool during his recent spell back training at Melwood.
Nothing is set in stone but the opportunity is there for the Reds to tap into his wealth of knowledge and experience and bring him back into the fold once his commitments are over in America.
“I have had a chat with Klopp,” Gerrard said.
“I haven’t had an offer as such, but the club have let me know they are keen for me to come back.
“There hasn’t been a conversation where they have said: ‘we want you to do this, we want you to do that’. But they have welcomed me back in.
“I am always going to be biased towards Liverpool and the FA. Basically, when I am back home I am going to carry on with my punditry work and if nothing happens between now and then I am going to try and move around clubs and gain more experience for myself, going to watch managers and try and learn more for myself.
“I am basically available from November/December. What’s interesting for me is I know what is going to happen until November but beyond that I don’t know.
“When I come back I have got my BT work but I am available for whatever is out there. Everyone in the football world will know I am available and hopefully I will be 75% into my coaching badges.”
Could I still do a job in the Premier League? Yeah
The initial leaving of Liverpool wasn’t easy for the longest serving captain in the club’s history.
After he rejected the offer of a one-year contract extension having been told by Brendan Rodgers he would effectively become a squad player, the Reds stood accused of not doing enough to retain his services.
Walking away hurt all the more after his 710th and final appearance in May ended in a shambolic 6-1 defeat at Stoke City.

I'd have no qualms with Gerrard coming back on loan. He'd only be a bit part player and id rather have him coming off the bench searching for a goal than Lucas or Allen.

I would have been happy for him to stay and be a bit part player, coming off bench with occasional start, but I don't think he would have accepted that at the time.

Least we'd have a goal threat at set pieces (I said goal threat, not a set piece specialist)
