How is that going to solve his s***eness?

Melissa Reddy saying Schalke have made an informal enquiry for Markovic as a replacement for Sane. Potentially this could be good for us as they should get a huge fee for Sane, so we could get most of Lazar Markovic fee back.

Of course he would. Regular footy, same or more wages. No move abroad either. I'm sure he's very settled in the UK and probably doesn't fancy a move abroad.

Lack of a quality CM worries me, especially if Can gets injured. Unless Grujic can step in to that role. Telegraph saying Rafa wants Lucas as part of the Wijnaldum deal.

You can see where Klopp is going with these signings. Although Wijnaldam and Mane play in different positions, both are very skillful and technically superb.. Can't wait to see how they will link up with the likes of Coutinho and Sturridge. Mail suggesting that Flanno and Lucas could be makeweights in the Wijnaldam deal. Can see Lucas going there to team up with Rafa again.

We were linked to him last summer. BS no doubt. Just checked and original source is Tuttosport. So yes, BS.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdQRXLe2WEM So who's place in the team does he take? There's no way we're spending £25m on him and he's not a starter. Makes you wonder what the future holds for our other midfielders like Hendo, Milner, Allen and Lucas.

Klaven medical tomorrow according to Sky Germany. Don't we fly out to the U.S. on Thursday? Getting Wijnaldum done before would be nice.

There was a list? I thought we just bought players that did well against us.

As long as we sign a proper left back that isn't a liability then not really bothered about who else we sign.

As good as.

Alarmingly to everyone but Klopp. The fact that we're chasing Chilwell means Morono is first choice LB this season. We're f***ed.

What? Rodgers and Martinez were the options. 2 absolute frauds who achieved the square root of f*** all in the game. They didn't take action sacking him either. Should have been binned last summer. They waited too long and we paid the price of it in terms of league position last season.

League finishes in those 6 years and only 1 trophy: 6th 8th 7th 2nd 6th 8th Nowhere near the top 4 apart from 2013-14, but why should FSG give a s*** when we're valued at over £1b.

We're not even competing with them. This is all down to our stubbornness to bid higher on a player than what we think he's worth for certain players. Reading in between the lines of the Zielinski saga is that we told him/agent that we won't be bidding any higher hence why he's now chosen Milan, so Klopp effectively wasted all his efforts in tapping him up. Sorry I'm not buying that we didn't want to sign him. To not bid higher than £7m on Chilwell because we might be able to get him cheaper in 12 months time with a tribunal sums it all up for me. Goes back to that wonderful Rafa phrase during his Valencia days of "I asked for a table and they brought me a lampshade".

We're the biggest f***ing cheapskates. Can't even get a deal done for Leicester's 3rd choice left back and yet we hope to sign Dahoud. Deluded f*** off FSG.

The most important point is that we're still after Zielinksi and Chilwell and these deals still haven't been closed. Any new players need to be training with the rest of the squad asap especially with a tour of the U.S on the horizon. The more time they spend in pre-season is always beneficial. Look at Benteke last season? Spent endless weeks talking to Villa who wouldn't budge on price trying to save a few £million and then paid what they wanted. If we wouldn't have f***ed about with it Benteke would have been on the Oz tour and able to train with the rest of the team and fitting in with rest of the squad. Chilwell is currently in pre-season with Leicester. How the f*** is that helping us or Klopp? Don't really give a f*** on what the club spin is in regards to players that turned us down like Gotze.

If the right offer comes in, most will be sold. I'd rather see Ojo get chances on the bench than Markovic to be honest.

Rumour of an £8m transfer fee agreed with Chinese club Hebei China Fortune for Balotelli on Twitter. Probably bulls***, but Chinese transfer window closes today.

And Zielinski seems persistent that he only wants to join us, even with Napoli and Milan bids being accepted.

We're not after Hector. Not sure why he keeps getting mentioned. If any of our new signings are anything to go by, fully trust Klopp and co with players that they are after. Just wish we stop f***ing about and get these deals done asap.

Looks like the chase for Zielinski isn't over. Several journos saying him and Chilwell.

Tutto Sport saying Kolo to return.

We've got the money. Just buy Jonathan Tah. Bet we sign Subotic now. f*** off net spend.

£25m was good offer. To think we'd recoup all of our outlay was just delusional. Should have bitten their hand off. In other news, Corriere della Sera (Italian paper) saying we've got until tomorrow to rid of Mario to a Chinese club as that's when their transfer window closes.
