Noise about Kelleher and Leeds Utd, similar type of noise is surrounding Tsimikas going there alsoā¦ Ok Ok, silly season has started early, but it could be a good move if it happens.
At the end of the day, Tsimikas has never lit Anfield ablaze with his performances, but he has never let us down eitherā¦
Would be good to see him playing regularly, for a fanbase that would likely to take to himā¦

Have edited the sentence because it was a tad confusing

Iām sure we could do better than Nkunku.

And Iām sure Harvey could do better than Wolves.

Whatās your view on Wharton 
Doubt we would be signing a 27 year old striker who hasnāt really done much at this level.

Nkunku seems unlikely but there were loose links when he was at Leipzig and if he measured up to our needs then (ie was rated by our analysts) and is now undervalued, maybe thereās a chance now.
We did alright with another Chelsea flop.

Iād be disappointed for Kelleher if he didnāt get into a regular CL team, thatās his level.

I read the whole article, which was more about Whartonās growing up (itās a nice one, actually). It only says in passing that Liverpool and Real Madrid are monitoring him. Iām not saying it isnāt true, just that this article barely reflects on it. For what itās worth, I rate him, though Iād be wary of his injuries and I donāt really think that, even if he was Man of Steel, Liverpool would be able to afford buying such an expensive player in position where they already have Gravenberch and, to an extent, Mac Allister. We also donāt know what happens with BajÄetiÄā¦

Well, it looks like Real have finalized the Huijsen deal so we can put a pin in that

I put a pin in that last week, when Realās interest was reported.
I probably should put a pin in the Wirtz one too, but thereās a chance there still.
His injuries last season were pretty serious, which would be my only concern, but if the deal is right he could be next seasons lucky dip attempt (like Chiesa this)
Problem is I saw who reported the Wharton link a week or so back and itās that newspaper we donāt buy.

And?
He had a couple of decent seasons in Italy and was younger. He arrived on the back of that at 25 and was 22 at Chelsea.
It holds up about as well as not buying Italians because one was injured, Chiesa didnāt play and Balotellu was slightly odd.
Iām not in the habit of off funding their mistakes.

There werenāt any references of that lot in this Daily Mail article but thanks for pointing it out, of course. That said, I think there were some tentative links with Wharton last summer but I would have to do some digging to remember who reported them.

Yeah no worries itās the only recent link I had seen and the press recycle stuff.
