Christopher Nkunku - Time To Take Hijack Chelsea's Attempts to Sign Him
Naby Keïta, Ibrahima Konaté and Takumi Minamino are all players that have been recruited from the RB group, either from Salzburg or Leipzig. We have also seen multiple stories linking us with various other players, and if not for COVID, we probably would have signed Timo Werner ahead of his move to Chelsea. The likes of Konrad Laimer and Noah Okafor are the latest names to do the pre January rounds, but it is another player that I believe could …
Goalkeepers LFC Should Target If Adrián Leaves
Adrián has been that steady training ground keeper who has been able to add to a tight knit group at the AXA training ground in Kirkby. It’s often a crazy and unpredictable world being a goalkeeper, and when Adrian was picked up as a free agent from West Ham, it was certainly no different. His persona seems infectious, his support seems unlimited, and it has allowed Jurgen Klopp to give that experienced back up to Alisson Becker, Caoimhin Kelleher and …
Should Liverpool sign Moisés Caicedo?
It’s no secret that Liverpool is looking to strengthen its midfield. The emergency loan signing of Arthur from Juventus came after a summer attempting to sign Aurélien Tchouaméni from Monaco. Once that was made impossible by the Frenchman’s move to Real Madrid, Jurgen Klopp said many times to the media that while he was happy with his options, signing a new midfielder was certainly being considered. One of those apparently looked at was Moisés Caicedo, who plays for Brighton. A …
Contract Rebel Central Midfielders To Target In the Summer Of 2023
We haven’t even gotten into the January transfer window yet, but with any elite and proactive sporting group, forward thinking is vital for future success. Though FSG haven’t backed the big midfield redevelopment, I think we can be hopeful that the next few windows will produce more positive results.
This coming summer will see the contracts of the below players end, and therefore need replacing.
Naby Keita
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain
James Milner
Bobby Firmino
At this stage no fees will be …
Like Father Like Son? Marcus Thuram in January
The sons of football legends carry enough pressure to begin with. History tells us it’s a ‘mixed bag’ when it comes to their varying levels of success. Giovanni Simeone, Federico Chiesa and Justin Kluivert are well known within the game and have played at the highest level. On the other side, the likes of Enzo Fernandez (son of Zidane) and Jonathan Klinsmann haven’t quite enjoyed the same level of notoriety. Liverpool’s eye may well have been cast towards one they …
Should I Stay or Should I Go? Decisions for Liverpool’s Best Back-Ups
January and Liverpool’s short-term needs will consume most Reds for the next few months, before a return post World Cup. Nothing will be completely solved in one transfer window, but the summer may also bring certain challenges that many hadn’t expected. For all the midfield talk that dominates articles, pods and all other fan chat, there’s a niggling longer-term concern around certain squad players. Jurgen Klopp has real strength in depth for certain positions. That could well come under threat …
Could Mason Mount Be The Bellingham Alternative?
Mason Mount travels to Qatar this week for the forthcoming World Cup. His call up was never in doubt, and only an untimely injury would have scuppered his place in Gareth Southgate’s England squad. This spell away from Chelsea could be the relief he needs right now, with the West London club currently in a period of disarray. With changes of ownership, changes of managers, and the recruitment of various players a constant over the last couple of years, he …
January Sales Shopping: Konrad Laimer v Youri Tielemans
Famous sayings can be true but also work against each other. Everybody loves a bargain, but at the same time, you do get what you pay for. Liverpool’s midfield needs are great and many hands make light work. The January window is notorious for the challenges that it brings, which means Julian Ward and co will have their work cut out. For all the top names linked, FSG seem unlikely to let the purse strings be loosened too much so …
Why Liverpool should be looking at Manu Kone
As the dust begins to settle on the first act of the season, the drama that is the January transfer window now comes into focus. Liverpool’s need couldn’t be more obvious than in the centre of the park, where a mix of injuries and fading legs means reinforcements are a necessity. With many of the top targets likely to be unavailable or others seeing a price inflation on the back of their exploits in Qatar, the solution may come from …
Why Kylian Mbappe should never be a Liverpool transfer target
The Liverpool FC buyout saga has rumbled on, and much of the fanbase will be quietly (or not so quietly) compiling their own dream teams for the new ownership to go and buy. There are of course my own wants and desires, and I would love the Reds to be as competitive as possible, but there has to be limitations on those dreams.
The foundations and history of this club has to be maintained, and no one player should ever …
