This Is Anfield Philippe Coutinho and Adam Lallana are both in the Liverpool squad tonight vs. Wigan. Just blocked my calendar off from 1:30 to 3:30.
This Is Anfield NEW: Lazio bid £5 million for Lucas Leiva as Liverpool consider summer departure[/QUOTE]
Saw Crystal Palace signed a center back meaning the move for Sakho is likely dead. Would be great if somehow he and Jurgen could make up. I'd feel very good about a center back rotation of VVD, Matip, Lovren, Sakho, Klavan.
I think Joyce said we're about to put in a 2nd bid as well. Heard Chris Williams who covers the Bundesliga say that Keita absolutely wants this move, hopefully that'll push it across the line
[/QUOTE] Will miss Lucas. Regardless of what you think of his level of play now, he had many good years here.
Chris Williams It could be a "formality" now that Keita moves to Liverpool during this window according to some within the German club. No idea how dependable these guys are.. Anfield Express A fee has been agreed between #LFC and RB Leipzig for Naby Keita. Finally.
Williams is the go to guy. He is a Bundesliga reporter and has connections at RBL. Heard him yesterday say there's a split at RBL about Keita. Some on the board want to sell him, the sporting director is adamant he's not for sale. I don't think LFC would be bidding if they weren't getting signs that bids were welcomed.
Putting him with Coutinho, Salah and Mane would be scary. His link up play in the midfield is awesome.
He basically does everything, can play all 3 midfield positions but is better further forward. He finished second in voting to Lewandowski for Bundesliga player of the year last year at age 22.
Would really appreciate us going ahead and signing another player or two so we can hurry up and get them with the team. Though, as guessed at the beginning of the window, we are going to do our normal shit and try and nickel and dime everyone then come away with no one and claim that's what we wanted all along.
Well that's certainly not true. They just bid 66 million pounds for Keita. Also Robertson is going to have his medical tomorrow.
We constantly hear about big time bids but yet somehow we rarely close the deal. So until we actually splash some serious cash AND get our guy, I will continue to believe we would prefer to nickel and dime folks. And "no one" was a bit of an exaggeration obviously as we have also signed Salah, but considering we have many more games this year, I assumed we would be strengthening and expanding our team as well, beyond a couple signings.
No usually what we hear about is us monitoring players but never bidding. We broke the club record for Salah, FSG just put in a bid that would have doubled the club record on Keita. They are definitely backing Klopp and putting up cash, if RBL wants to dick around with us, I'm not sure what FSG can do.
2 things.. Solanke is gonna be really good. Thank you Chelsea.... and those orange kits are beautiful Now sign a centerback
