Stickied Transfer Rumours 2018/19

West Ham have sent a "begging letter" to the "big five" (United, Arsenal, City, Chelsea and Liverpool) including specific requests for Rashford, Martial, Batshuayi, Sturridge, Smalling, Ivanovic, Sakho, Debuchy and Jenkinson as well as a general plea for whatever table scraps the big boys can spare.

According to Paul Joyce Liverpool are considering a move for Draxler in January.

He'll cost too much and is off to PSG anyway isn't he?

If he regretted that much then he'll be returning to the Saints no doubt.

Mourinho has clearly wanted to get rid of him for months anyway - West Brom's supposed bid of £13m is a little on the low side, though.

He's not been given a fair chance under Jose, I should add. I'd like to keep a hold of him.

We won't want him back unfortunately.

Hope he flops wherever he goes.

He was the best CDM this league had to offer while he was here. It's laughable that United haven't persisted with him.

Surprised Jose didn't give him a chance, certainly an improvement on Fellaini but saying that his was way below average under LVG last season and seemed to struggle playing for a team that had the majority of possession.

Anyone but Jenkinson. Started well but had a naff second half in 2015 and was inept at the start of last season.

At the very least those three positions are the ones we really need...

Koeman losing it since joining Neverton.

There are reports in Portugal that Lindelöf to United is a done deal.

Looks like Lucas is off (to inter?). Great person but no longer good enough player for us.

It'll be a shame to see Lucas go, he's been a brilliant servant for Liverpool and his attitude is top notch. Up until his first major injury, back when he could run a bit he turned himself into an important part of our midfield.

Now he can't move and is being wasted. A move somewhere will be good for him.

Up there with Gerrard and Dalglish for me.

HAHAHAHAHAHA everyone look at Bilo, he reckons Lucas bloody Leiva is up there with Gerrard and Dal bloody glish!

Would like to have seen him get a testimonial, and there has been rumours of him moving on every window for the past three seasons, but something tells me this time it will come to pass. Shame.

I knew you'd come here all superior with your condescending tone. But for one last time I'll rise above it, as I often have, to explain to you why I should be laughing at you.

This forum has never been quite enlightened enough to appreciate Lucas' greatness. It's a shame, but what else can you ask from a forum where Lionel Messi 6/10 is the biggest consensus ever reached. It's unfortunate, because the signs were always there in plain sight.

Let's take a trip down memory lane to the merry day in july (or may, possibly august) when Benitez signed the young, talented and exciting blonde Gremio box to box midfielder. Way back in 2007, the world was quite different. Anything other than Liverpool was basically better: Nigel Farage was just a random racist, Boris Johnson hadn't been on a stupid talk show or whatever, the financial crisis was still unheard of and you could say Hitler was a c*nt without others pointing out how many other c*nts have existed without half the condemnation.

But Liverpool, we were quite the opposite. Aside from the young talented exciting blonde Gremio box to box midfielder, we were in a bad place. We had just been taken over by H&G, dickheads, and we had lost a CL-final, our last one since. To top it off, we had just signed a spanish nobody with a stupid nickname for too much money. At least according to Pagnell, unless he has changed his opinion in the past nine years. But knowing Pags, he very probably has not.

Here we are, some nine and a half years later. The random racists have organized, Boris Johnson is your secretary of state or something he's stupidly unqualified for, the financial crisis fucked us all and G-dragon probably thinks Hitler has been treated unfairly by the establishment. I'm sure we can all agree that the world is way shittier than that in 2007.

Yet somehow, we have during these very important years moved in the opposite direction. I mean, we have gone from the shambles that we were to genuine contenders right here. And we're also financially stable, we've got a bigger stadium and times are generally great.

Now, you could of course point at many factors, normally. Things are complicated. But there's only one single factor (/person) who has been a constant during these years; when Liverpool has moved in the opposite direction of a world very likely to end before Bob Dylan.



One league cup, two times league runner up, and unless my memory serves me wrong we averaged 3,4 points per game with him in the side during the years 2010-2013. Someone will have to look it up.

The exciting box to box midfielder now leaves as an experienced, admired defensive anchor up there with Makelele, Vieira and Joey Barton. Now, the common narrative is that Lucas Leiva was transformed to a defensive midfielder because he couldn't attack; but this is wrong. It was simply a waste for us to have the ball when he was in the side; such was his defensive contribution. It is indeed said that Hodgson specifically instructed Liverpool to give the ball away deliberately, just so that we could get the best out of Lucas Leiva.

The world is going down the shitter, but we're going the opposite direction. All thanks to this man.

Brazilian. Defensive midfielder. Legend.

Everton set to sign Ademola Lookman subject to him agreeing terms, rumoured to be around 11mil including add-ons. No loan back.

Yeah, well, those reports were bollocks, you twat.

Strongly linked with OX and Promes. I wouldn't want OX, he is a donkey. Promes not seen much to judge.

Emil Forsberg to Liverpool.
