Liverpool FC Team Talk, Gossip, Rumours 2024/25

I was the same, he would actually transform our midfield entirely and still only 19!!! City with him and KbB next year would be insane....I hope he goes to Real!

Lucky he wasn't sent off.....

Liverpool did a lot of work behind the scenes with Jude's dad and brother Joel also. Joel was rumoured to be signing once he turned 17 but it doesn't seem to have developed since. The club really want Jude, they are making it obvious. He really could be a game changer of a signing IMO.

Weird to see Lovren wearing the captains armband and also managing to look like a semi competent defender.

Taki up first 😬

England's captain and leader shows great leadership to score tonight, and Harry Kane scores too.

Aside from today he was decent when he was on the field, just wasn't on the field too much. Was instrumental in their win over Germany though.

I cant remember a player which such hype around him as Bellingham. Its between City and Liverpool and we all know there is only one winner there. Klopp factor might swing it but they will be willing to pay much higher wages. Are we going to break our wage structure for a 19 year old? 250k would be the absolute minimum wages for him. If we do finish Top 4 I hope the club do push the boat out for him, hes worth it but the midfield needs more than just Jude.

By all accounts Bellingham's dad has his head in the right place and will only move for the right reasons. Money is not the primary driver but style of play, career progression plan etc are more towards the front of their minds. Obviously a big talent like his will drive up the money involved but he is still only 19. There's plenty of time to make money down the line.

Nice to have him back fully fit for the season restart.

Spain really could have done with a player like Thaigo in that game.

Young Ramos looks the fit for Liverpool that Nunez isn't

I don't get the Nunez bashing. He scores goals and creates assists for the Reds, who cares what he does outside of that? Even if his control is suspect, as long as we get 3 points, its irrelevant.

Well I've only seen a little of Bellingham for the first time at the WC. Maybe, I should give it a couple of years before my conclusion now that he is a top prospect.

Bellingham reminds me of Gerrard in the way he is physically dominating players at such a young age,

He has the speed, power ,strength on most player he comes up against at 19 years of age its really something special , add to that he seems very agile he has every chance of becoming a super star, he can obviously also play football to which makes him a massive problem to deal with , Gerrard was a force of nature at times Bellingham may need to add a little bit of bite to get to Gerrard levels ,

The deal must be all but done the way he is with the two Liverpool lads,

I don't think a bidding war will happen ,

Dortmund will be willing to let him go for 100 million or a little more, I'd imagine he & his agent already know the number that is needed for them to let him go, I think the only issues to Liverpool could be wages,

I also don't see him going to France next,

Lets be fair these days the selling clubs normally make everyone interested aware at what price they are willing to sell & then the clubs offer player different wages,

It's s all about player power, they usually end up with who offers the biggest wage,

Why would i do that ?

Just because I' was not am not sold on Nunez doesn't mean every player is the same ,

With Ox, Milner & Phillips more than likely gone next summer it will be interesting to see what homegrown player the club looks to sign to fill out the HG quota that only 17 players in a 25 man squad can be non HG.

The club only named a 24 man squad this season 16 of which were non HG and with that Naby & Adrian looking like the only ones of the 16 leaving that only leaves three spaces for a non HG signing.

However I could see Adrian signing another 1 year deal if Kelleher goes out on loan.

Bellingham would be considered an under 21 so signing him would not effect the quota.

No he said there was no truth that Mane was going to Munich.

He wasn't even Man enough to keep the Tweet he deleted after ever other Journo said Mane was going to Munich.

NOT TRUE ❌ is that Bayern is working on a Transfer of Sadio Mané. The Player was no topic in the Talks between Salihamidzic and Bezemer of Mané‘s agency „ROOF“ at Mallorca on Friday https://t.co/JUjJaBpALR

Does it matter? He'll be out injured again after his first game back.

Elliott has made the top 5 of the most valuable teenagers in the world.

Bellingham is number 1

Musiala is number 2

Gavi is number 3

Wirtz is number 4

Elliott is number 5

Endrick who Madrid are about to pay €70m for is at number 8
