LIVERPOOL ECHO
  • Liverpool are considering making a move for Bayern Munich forward Renato Sanches (1), say reports in Germany.
  • Unsettled Liverpool playmaker Philippe Coutinho may go public with his wish to join Barcelona, with the player weighing up whether to speak about his unhappiness at being denied the chance to move to the Nou Camp, according to the Catalan press. (2)
  • Everton will battle with Newcastle United for the signature of Sampdoria midfielder Dennis Praet, say reports in the British media.

(1) ****, no

(2) Wonder if there's still time for another 'unveiling' on Friday? <doh>
 
Don't get me wrong, I'm excited at the prospect of CL football again and think that we have a very good chance of progressing out of that group.

Now look at our bench on Sunday. Is it strong enough for a sustained challenge on more than one front?

The bench is easily strong enough.




It's the players parked on it I'm worried about.

Rafinha won't join Liverpool
16:16: Rafinha has agreed to leave Barcelona - but he isn’t heading to Liverpool.

Calciomercato claim Liverpool, as well as Arsenal, want to sign Rafinha.

But reports in Italy claim the player has agreed in principle to move to AC Milan.

Milan now have to work with Barcelona over a fee for the player.

Milan should just offer the entire fee in add-ons.

btw - if Southampton have had no actual bids for VVD, where does the - we're showing clubs we're not to be messed with - stance come from? Have you 'kept hold' of a player? We've kept hold of Moreno as well dontcha know <laugh>

Or perhaps there have been bids that we ( the insignificant fans ) are not aware of ? But I take your point .

And yes , we kept hold of Morgan for 1 year longer than he wanted. He knuckled down , did his job and then left .

How much money did you lose on that deal?

Also... did you finish lower in table that year?

Finally... im sure lfc is a leaky seive for news. If we were even talking to you on it lfc fans would hear about it. We have not bid and imo that put your itk.. well nitk.

With respect, we scared you off from making a bid when Jurgen and Virgil's illicit liason in Blackpool was rumbled....:grin:

If you're talking about the Liverpool board on here, we've got mixed feelings i.e. there's no consensus at all. Some want Coutinho gone, some don't. Some think FSG should hold firm on principle, some say the only principle is get rid of a player who doesn't want to be here - it's take you pick really <laugh>

The difference between our 2 clubs, with no disrespect intended, is that you are a selling club, we aren't. I know every club is essentially a selling club, it's how the game works but we are trying to restore our status as a top club that can keep it's top players. When Torres left, he was well on the wane. Suarez on the other hand wasn't. I can't think of any other of our 'star' players we've let go.

That's the perception that we are trying to change, this is the first season that we have been debt free and now have more financial muscle with the Chinese investment.

That squad was nowhere near strong enough when stretched last season, I don't see how you can add CL footie without it being stretched further still. Especially given the way Klopp has you playing in terms of ground covered, pressing etc. You're short of bodies imo.

To be fair, I think we're doing the same with Couthino....either that or both clubs are just driving the price up. Ultimately, there is a pecking order that teams move up slowly (and down quickly)....the recent Tv money has changed the clubs ambitions but the players still want to play for the bigger, more famous teams.

Dead right Jasper, what the hell are we going to do with £60m just sitting in the bank? (too late to do much with it in this window), better for us to keep him to change the perception of our club just giving in to unreasonable and unprofessional players and just getting rolled over by bigger clubs, we don't need to sell so why let a team who we will be playing against get stronger?. He will go in the future of course, but we have a great chance of making an example of him without losing out in the long run.

nothing to argue with there in fact you could just as easily be talking about us & Couts.
For both clubs though the worry has to be an expensive asset has a serious hump with the club & the effect that may have.

Then they shouldn't accept long term contract extensions with substantial wage increases then, that's just having your cake and eating it.....
