... and the fact that it was posted over 8hrs ago with no follow up means it's a nothing burger as the yanks like to say, or Henry's wife Linda is in Liverpool to pick up some fresh bed linen...

Well the rumour is Keita had his medical today at Melwood.

Don't think it's anything to do with FFP, RBL just really want to hold onto him for one more year.

I dont think the stars align a couple of days before a window shuts (for a years time) too often. I think they will have looked at it and thought we have to balance spend over 3 years. So if he is definitely coming we might as well get some of the deal out of the way in this window rather than next summer.

Perhaps if Leipzig were out of Europe altogether by January a further premium payment could be made in January to accelerate the deal.

With the weekend's result and Oxlade Chamberlain going to Chelsea it wouldn't surprise me if Arsenal go back in for Lemar. They probably need some good news around the club right now.

If it's between us and them I'd be confident we get our man. Reddy has already said he wants to go to Liverpool and we have the CL pull.

Once this is signed, we should try to get Keita on loan for the season.

Sacking Wenger would be like a new signing.

Wilmslow is apparently where he had it...

The club should start flying them into Manchester Airport and driving them to Melwood to confuse the United "ITK"s

Just in the door and after catching up on all of this.

I need a lie down, but a can of Red Bull might also do the trick.

marklazarcovic

so lemar in now,keita signed for nxt season,and phil leaving nxt season , just two more to get over the line so,but ill settle for the one

D'Agger

Are we decal-ing the club cars now with liverbirds or something that Johnny McFúckhead down the airport is coming out with these transfer rumours.

Tipsy McSwagger

If we sign VVD this week I will spontaneously combust

Get Lemar done and I won't even care about not getting a CB.

CB is way more important.

There's no chance of Mark Lamar choosing the loser boys over us, one glance at Sanchez mug would put off anyone joining them

Just tried to figure out if Guinea have a chance of qualifying for the WC next year - jaysus, their qualifying process is complicated, but in short, it doesn't look like they will, so Klopp can get to working with him from presumably July 2nd and will be fit and ready (fingers crossed no jinx there) for the US tour...

Could have just checked the World Cup thread

It is not that bad, it was people have been saying Europe should do with the weaker nations playing off before another knock out round to get it down to 5 groups of 4 teams with each group winner going to the World Cup

Agent Coulson

FSG out not getting Keita now the fcuking cheapskates not prepared to get into a bidding war next season.

I wouldn't get so smug if I were you.
There's not much distance between a slap on the back and a kick up the arse as many Liverpool fans know. You beat a team that is not playing for the manager yesterday. That does not make you league winners.

€70m is apparently what we're paying RBL next summer.

Reckon it will come in a bit under that, but considering Ox went to Chelsea for 35m I think we did very well.

€12million up front and the rest in silly add ons.

Waiting for Peter Moore to appear on Twitter taking all the credit

He was getting stick on Twitter yesterday for thanking the fans for the great support at Anfield, they'll jump on him for anything.

As long as one of them add-ons isn't us paying them an extra million every time that Spanish lad Ballbag links Keita to Barca. We'll be in administration by the time United have their often top bus parade in September.

Better start working on those 45 yard pile drivers son, that number means he has a lot to live up to.

Adjust for (likely) inflation in the transfer market, that looks like half-daycint business.

Although I'm aware that sounds like someone in 2006 talking about buying an apartment off plans in Skopje.

Why ? Goes missing way too much, still inconsistent

Great on his day but at that money let him off

Keep it in cotton wool in a safe location in Eastern Germany until then. Be grand.

Didn't take long for the negativity to creep back in....first the crystal ball merchant, now ricero reverting to type.

Keita has passed his medical it seems. 5 year contract effective 1st July 2018

If we sign a replacement for Coutinho then he can leave IMO.

ERG89

Naby K-8-a
I'll be leaving now.

Would love to keep him for a season , supplying our front 3 would be something special.
Barca won't wait till next summer, they are pretty awful so far this year and they really need someone like him now.
But he does go missing too often.
It's a hard one to be call really. I would be equally happy with a huge influx of cash and seeing him play for another year.

not yet

Listen lads. if we get Lemar and VvD over the line with Naby next year that is as good as it gets.

Don't really care anymore tbh. He's dead to me.

Agent Coulson

I wonder if RB are out of the CL & chance of winning the league in January could we get him early.


That would be a nice addition to the squad then.

Great news

Quick question. Why does Klopp keep buying attacking talent when it's the defense that's the main weak point?

Osmosis Jones

Said it since he started acting the prick that if we get in a proper replacement for Coutinho then Id happily get rid of him, Lemar is more than I could have hoped for. If that deal gets done then I wouldn't be surprised, or all that upset, with Coutinho leaving.
