Liverpool related transfer speculation

I'm genuinely curious about this. When's he done that? I'm interested cos I like Nico Williams and would like us to sign him lol.

I even scrolled through his twitter feed for the past few weeks and there was barely anything about transfers.

He's the journo Liverpool.no use for their updates and podcasts. They wouldn't be using someone who is spouting shit like a "mad womens piss" in all honesty given how serious they are with what they post and share in Norway.
He's a tier 1 source according to other Liverpool accounts, so I'm guessing he has some credibility.

He seems to share most of this in other channels than X.

In the end its obviously guess work for most. But this thread is for creating transfer speculation and discussion, so with the mentioned above in mind thats perfectly okay.
 
Corrected. I haven't started a thread on potential signing for a very long time. I may start transfer threads and so do others. Look someone started another thread on RBs just today.

I know it’s lifeforce sucking - and normally things getting sucked out of you are pleasant, but this isn’t.
 
Here is him throwing out names


But most of those are names we will NOT be signing according to him! That's the exact opposite of throwing out names and hoping something sticks!

Ekitike has been linked by everyone, it's on the level of Kerkez.
 
Lets not forget that the club brief certain journos with names of potential targets and then we sign someone completely left field.
Most of the names are familiar anyway, and the striker market is extremely small in terms of who we could sign.

I think the club runs a tight ship these days so I doubt any of them really know that much. Perhaps the odd whisper.

The insinuation was that this guy is constantly chucking out random (ie unique) links like this Nico Williams one, and therefore it should be ignored. I've seen no evidence of that yet.

Yeah, I've not seen that either tbh. Which is why it still gets posted.

Between now and when the transfer window closes there will be dozens of transfer threads (mostly by other members), so you have two choices, ignore them which is a novel concept to some members or go into hibernation like @tombrown and @Modo said they would.
So far we have on the 1st page
Who will stay and who will go? started by Rurikbird
Incoming transfer bingo started by Modo
You Aina seen nothing yet started by Rurikbird
Raid the relegated started by Modo
Liverpool related transfer speculation started by Dee
£250m in transfer funds how would you strengthen? (started by me)
The new number 9…started by Buddah
Right Back at ya. started by Hyena

And this season has not even finished yet. Its only gonna get worse (from your perspective)
 
My two threads will have nothing to do with the circus that will start in a few weeks.

What I'm not looking forward to are the headlines.

"Liverpool making advances...",
"Liverpool courting...",
"Liverpool locked in on target",
"Liverpool caught tapping up u18 star...",
"Liverpool refusing to release...",
"Liverpool warned off...",
"Liverpool refusing to comply..."


I mean:

Liverpool have entered into the race 'forcefully' in the last few hours for Leny Yoro, according to Gianluca Di Marzio. Real Madrid and Manchester United are also reportedly interested.

Was it just last week he listed like 8 names ? I know his tweets/threads whatever keep popping up (eye roll) with nothing to substantiate them - not even 'his father was a good friend of Slot's best mate growing up'. To be expected from the way we operate now so obviously this guy knows nothing at all. No doubt the engagement is making him a bob or two.

Not sure, I haven't seen that at all tbh. But if this thread is to be solely based on the likes of Ornstein its gonna be a bit boring and not much activity.

See the other post BB linked to and just do a google search - he seems to have a new one every (other) day. How else would you keep the engagement high and people coming back to check on updates?
I don't think any of these journalists know much at all. It's all just vague guesswork at this stage.
This is surely 100% correct.

Well that isn't exactly what he said. It was "no contact yet (or) until the season ends because it would be disrespectful" and "I think we'll sign a CF - keep an eye on Ekitike" etc.

Yeah OK. But we could revert to listening to BB ! At least he digs up some links and YT videos to go with his 'sources'. Cough.

I know… my pants are down and my lifeforce is hanging out there waiting to be sucked dry…

… and I can barely fake a smile.

I can’t wait till someone calls all the new signings shit 15 minutes into the first pre-season friendly after none of them (even the keeper) has scored 23 times.

The joy!!!

I think Modo and Tom are being smart for their own mental health.

No disrespect, its just that most people have this firmly held belief I start transfer threads and quite frequently. My thread was not asking for names just positions people would get reinforcements for. People quickly realised we won't get 6-7 players as they originally thought but 4-5 which is a manageable to integrate

I've tried googling him and it's mostly just links to podcasts where he's pretty noncommittal and vague and talks about the usual suspects like Huijsen and Kerkez.

I'm not claiming that he has good info. I'm asking where the evidence is that he's constantly throwing out similar links to that Williams one, which was the original accusation (and used to justify dismissing that link).

If that's his MO then it's surely easy enough to provide similar examples??

If posts on transfer threads threaten your mental sanity, God help you when you discover X
 
Great, sign Musiala
Maghnes Akliouche, 23 looks like Jayden Danns. Electrifying pace and skill, PSG are after him and is understood will seal the deal for €80m. I don't know how I can say this but he is a more realistic option than Jamal who is on €25m a year

23 years old with 14 senior goals in 90 apps in France? Nah, we good.
 
France is the hotspot for these talent you don't know or maybe half hear about, then they skyrocket and turn into a Kante or Mahrez.

We should be looking at Kalimuendo and Cherki. As well as Almada.
