The Unreliable LFC Transfer Rumours Discussion Thread (Part 3)

Maybe using electroshock to stop him getting caught offside.

I still expect it to be Ekitite I think all our business basically stopped for a week or two due to the tragic circumstances. It’s why I expect Guehli to be done. Edite we head off on our tour.

If Konate rumours are true that he won sign a contract, then Konate + 20 million.

“Considering the possible departure of Diaz which we made up
.”

And no, we simply don’t have the means to let go of Konate even if that means him leaving in a year.

It’s on his Facebook, from 2 hours ago.

Sadly it’s still from AS.

Which I guess doesn’t stand for “all shit” but should.

Oh sorry you said “speculation”

I prefer Ekitike as he gives us much needed height in forward positions, especially with our recent signings not being the tallest and also helps on defending corners.

West Ham looking at Elliott. Got that Kudus money begging to be spent.

Wouldn’t be a bad move for Harvey to be honest.

Possibly, though Paqueta and Bowen are still there
 they’re probably in a greater need of a left sided and central option in attack. Not to mention sort out their deeper midfield.

Unreliable rumour one

And two

Though I am a sure Bild told us last week they had signed Diaz so who knows.

I don’t trust Sesko to make it in the PL. Same with Gyokeres - I think Arsenal are making a very expensive mistake taking on a 27 yr old striker who has never performed in a top league (Eng/Fra/Ita/Ger/Sp).

I think the two best strikers “on the market” right now are Osimhen, who has proven he can score at every level, but there are a few question marks over his attitude and priorities (seems to want high wages, etc.); and Ekitike who is a risky venture needing further development, only one top season, but has been touted as a top potential talent for some time now, and he looks like he has the tools to succeed at the highest level.

If the rumors are true that Newcastle are looking at bringing in Ekitike, then it will be as a replacement for Isak, not as an understudy. I’d be well happy if that meant they’d sell Isak to us, but the fee would likely exceed what we paid for Wirtz. At that point, Slot would be under MASSIVE pressure to deliver trophies year on year. Not that I don’t think he could or would do that, but the pressure would be immense with that kind of financial outlay in one summer.

Yeah Isak with his potential price and injury record seems an unlikely gamble. If Ekitike is not possible, might we sign a left of field prospect and keep Chiesa? Diaz, Gakpo, Chiesa, Prospect, Salah, Frimpong.
Or if we were playing Wirtz further forward then either Diaz or Gakpo could move centrally.

Found Grav last year, so Slot shouldn’t rest on his laurels, and find another Grav like miracle.

The club knows our financial calculation and limit for this summer better then we do.

That’s not to say that they don’t make mistakes, but potential fan fear is our thing. Reaction from the media is impossible to control. Learn how to live with it.

Masssive pressure to win? Regardless if it’s called normal pressure at Liverpool when things are going well, expectation, favourites to win again or massive pressure, I want that.

The key is that we make the best possible decisions within what the club judges it wants or can do in this transfer window, which is far from over in terms of both incoming deals and outgoing.

I think a lot of the noise around strikers and central defenders is filling rumour columns, and probably hasn’t got much substance.
.
I can’t see why we need another CB when we just sold one, unless we already have something done.
.
In relation to strikers, our present bunch won the league at a canter last season, so why do we need to buy another project.
