When Allen has been in form - which has been every time he has had a good run of games - he has played.

Hendo has not had a decent run in ages due to persistent injuries and Lucas is now very much a squad player.

There's every reason to think he will get starts. Allen strikes me as the type to always work to get in rather than someone who would 'want out'.

It just irritates me to see 'someone intimated' leave speculation or whatever without even a half credible twitter source to back it up.

I don't want him to leave either, but there is plenty of evidence to suggest he might.

As with anyone in the squad though, if we can improve on them, I'm all for it.

You're plucking this shìte out of thin air. As far as I can tell he's happy at Liverpool. What do you know about Allen's 'wishes'?

How can you tell that he's happy?

Why would he be happy starting most games on the bench.

Rumours doing the rounds for months that he's going back to Swansea as he wants regular football.

Allen hasn't yet been offered a new contract, that is Klopp's decision. It's possible that the manager is waiting to see what players are signed before making a decision on extending contracts.

dogbert27

Spurs have just agreed 11 mill with Southampton for Wanyama.

Lack of a manager shouldn't be stopping us making a bid on Mane if he's our target, or is he??

I'm assuming that our transfer targets are still in the Euros and that's why it's so quiet.

Harry Palmr

Someone pointed out Wayama only had a year left on contract but also that Soton have a DoF so the manager's views may not be that important.

Maybe the club is pursuing other transfer targets before throwing £30M at Southampton.

What ever way you want to spin it, they finished above us this season and he's one of the outstanding players in that team. When you also consider the money we spent on Lovren, Lallana and Clyne and how they're all playing to their worth, buying from them really isn't the worst thing.

Plus if we take another one of their players we get the next one free I think.

Hollister11

i wonder if Lambert would of done well under Klopp ???

ricero

Reports in italy that zielinski to lfc is done deal for 14 million euros

J Mysterio

The Iceland keeper has really impressed. Could be a snip at 400k. Couple of other handy players there. Bit of a pick n mix for peanuts.

Turtyturd

He's had at least one f*ck up in every game. We already have a keeper with that trait.

J Mysterio

He's been excellent.

Turtyturd

Sommer is the only keeper I would say has been excellent so far.

The goalkeeping at the tournament has been awful. That lad in goal for the North last night was excellent though.
Icelandic keeper only recently took up football I think.

I reckon he would freeze on the bigger stage.

Henderson is woeful, I pray he is sold

I'll just go ahead and blame Acterberg, the kids love it.

rob316

I'll probably be called drunk but we need a left back and what about brady? Still young, improving all the time, we could badly do with his deadball accuracy too.

I know I'm going home.

Brady and Townsend. I hate myself and I want to die.

We might as well sign Fat Daz off our 6 a side team, while we're at it.

Brady > Moreno

Still not good enough though

Even God is feeling Irish tonight.

#BradyforLiverpool

5starpool

Apparently Burnley have agreed to swap fixtures, so our first 3 games will be away next season, with the first home game against Leicester on the weekend of Sep 10th.

Charlie19

Brady was playing in a Cm/Am role and not as LB.

But yeah I'd be all for any of the Irish lads to take the LB role at Liverpool and thats only because Moreno annoys me so much.

Hollister11

I wouldn't sell Moreno. But he needs to be transitioned into a winger.

Jamie Carragher talks about full backs being 'failed wingers or failed centre backs' but Moreno seems to be a failed full back who should be put on the wing.

5starpool

He should be transitioned to another feckin club.

Complete and utter exaggeration.

He had plenty of good games for us before Klopp came in, including some absolutely exceptional ones.

Injuries were a massive factor in his form, imo

Nah, he really didnt, sorry.

In fairness, Mig hasn't put a foot wrong in his best position this tournament. :pac:

He did. Just because, at the time, it was popular to say he was ****, doesn't mean he was actually ****. When he missed that sitter against Everton everyone went to town on him saying he was ****e. Watch that match back, he was one of our best players that day.

Sorry but in his first few seasons he spent a lot time passing the ball sideways and was largely ineffective.

If he had been sold last season not many here would have been too worried.

Worked great for bale. Moreno does not have the head for being a left back.

Or the ability of Bale

Harry Palmr

All 12 Liverpool players at the Euros have reached the knockout rounds - we're great! Most of them will be coming home after the next game! :pac:

England, Wales, Germany and Belgium would be strong favourites for their ties no? Only Skrtel would be expected to be knocked out.

Harry Palmr

Probably but Iceland could fluke their way through with a 1-0 win in the 93rd minute.

On the transfer front Melissa Reddy says Mane and Zeilinski still on target - 30m and 15m respectively with the Pole not being tied up until after the Euros.

Agent Coulson

She is now also saying Sevilla are looking at Joe Pirlo which would be a great move for him if he was to leave.

martyos121

I'd love to keep him but I certainly wouldn't begrudge Joe a move to a club like Sevilla, he doesn't belong at a small club like Swansea and it'd break my heart to see him go back there. He must have little confidence in himself to even consider it, or he's just a very loyal lad who misses home.

joe123

I can't figure out why Liverpool aren't offering Allen a new contract. Its not like we are flush with talented midfielders and Allen has been immense for us the last while and again for Wales.

Agent Coulson

Maybe Joe doesn't want a new contract any one think of that.

Hollister11

We being linked the Brazilian left back Douglas. 10M

Kimbot

Or maybe they arent offering him a contract because he is currently away on international duty.......

Possibly, but this has been an issue for the last while. Either way we will see I suppose!

Klopp postponed the contract talks until the summer.

Pretty much everyone has, yeah. This isn't some shocking revelation in fairness, there wouldn't be talk of him leaving at all if he didn't want to stay and sit on the bench.

Muahahaha

United? Chelsea?

Any media I've read say its United Hummels turned down

Hummels, speaking to German newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung, said: 'Fundamentally, England, Spain and Germany were the relevant leagues I could see myself playing football in.
'But at this stage there just was not that one English club where the overall package was fitting.
'The overall package means: a club which fascinates me; a club I have always wanted to join, and where the sporting constellation is right, and which of course plays Champions League football next season. And because of the latter one club was ruled out, and you can envision which club that was.'

Seems Arsenal weren't a club he wanted to play for and Utd didn't have CL football so refused them too
