"Yeah, class player but I'm not keen on loanees or buy back clauses. We get no benefit in the long term. For example let's say we get him and he is playing regularly well for the first team. At the end of the season the parent club get their, now in form, player back and we're left with a big hole in our side. Charlie Adam looks like he could fill a big hole though! Ha!"
"Good news. So we don't have to buy Allen now. I think we need a tricky winger (Quaresma) and a talented attacking midfielder. Would love to see Ramirez at Anfield but if he is too expensive, we should go for Isco of Malaga. He is tricky, skillful with the ball and HE IS A LIVERPOOL FAN!"
"stay away from quaresma barca to inter to turkey at 28 i= a lazy flop stay clear. sahin good business but where is gaston???? get it done lfc. "YANKS OUT" banners are in in storage not thrown away. "
"Sahin is the type of quality that we need in the centre. Allen looked no more impressive than Henderson during the Olympics, we don't need more middle-of-the-road types. "
"Not usually a fan of loan deals. If this guy comes to LFC scores 20 goals and we do make champions league then it doesn't matter.
We could easily replace him then, you never know he might want to stay in that case. But if we don't make CL then we lose 20 goals and we're right back where we started or worse.
But all things considerd its worth the risk."
"sounds good but we really need to KEEP AGGER,SUAREZ AND ADD TO THESE CLASS PLAYERS WITH CLASS PLAYERS OR THEY WILL WANT TO LEAVE COME ON FSG MAKE THIS HAPPEN"
"And what the hell is going on with Agger? I get the feeling that he will be sold because the American's think it's a good price. Lose Agger and we step back around 3-4years in development. DON'T LET HIM GO!!"
"Gaston Ramirez - why haven't we paid the £16mill for this guy? Surely that's not a big price considering today's market? The guy is quality. FSG need to realise this is not the time to split pennies!!!"
"I can't say this enough! KEEP AGGER!! What is the point in selling our best defender, to our rivals?? I'm completely baffled?! Give him a pay-rise, extend his contract, give him a hug.. Do what you have to in order for him to stay!!"

If a loanee comes in and does well and helps us in to the cl then that puts us back in a strong position to buy top players for the following season.
"
"SIGN SOMEONE LOL THIS IS TERRIBLE..EVEN RANGERS WHO ARE BROKE AND RELEGATED ARE SNAPING UP PEOPLE FOR 5K A WEEK ..we cant be that bad of a club in the market can we"
"I will say it yet again,FSG do not seem to want to spend any money.
Carroll and Suarez were bought with the money from the sale of Torres and Babel.
I really,really fear for next season.I stick with my prediction of no higher than 7th.
"
"this potential deal makes a lot more sense than the rumoured 15-20 million for joe allen, both financially and also in footballing terms. if we're looking for a midfield orchestrator, then sahin is a fantastic candidate despite finding it difficult in madrid"
"yes and with option in loan contract. But I hope that it doesn´t mean Allen stays in Swansea, because he is brilliant in BR style of play. And the fans, who says, that he wasn´t impressive on Olympic games, this is possible, but it is different type of game. It the same as Messi in Stoke style of play."
"Yessssssssssssssssssss! Had it be true that Swansea demand more than £20m for Allen, Sahin would be an excellent alternative to the Welsh midfielder. Skillful, geometrical and with a good play vision, the turkish looks made to our case. Get him please!!!!"
"had a feeling about this when BR mentioned about possible loan deals, could be possible cause of his good relationship with Mourinho. if fit and in form could be a perfect solution to our starting midfield three. lucas-sahin-gerrard, not bad on paper eh..."
"if everything goes well could wanna stay but if not and has helped us get top4 spot for example than atleast we have a better chance of getting a proper replacement. could be quite a deal for all parties considered."
"Please pleeaasee please, TAKE him! He'll greatly improve the midfield. He's a good playmaker! We need improvement on penetration and he might be the answer!!!"
"boulehead I dont remember mentioning anything about an advantage just said that there is somewhat a realistic chance of this being true cause of that relationship. and Mourinho knowing Brendan is a good thing because it's a loan deal and loan deals usually are about player development and if Mou thinks Sahin could grow while he's under BR we have a chance of clinching this deal."
"Liverpool like to sell players but they dont know how to act a replacement so that's horrible bussiness ... Please if you like to sell a player show us the replacement such the other clubs YWNA!!!!"
"Plz bring him on loan ...his great
Nuri Sahin Loan
Affaly Loan
Joe Allen 13m
Gaston Ramariz 15m
Matias Suarez 11m
and bring on next season ...Matias Suarez is great player n his value quite cheap better than Clint D
"
"This would be a good move, no cash outlay and in a years time one of our up and coming youngsters might fill the gap. Build from within, we have a good squad now and some brilliant youngsters."
"Finally an interesting player linked with us. However i think it's just a rumor and i'm afraid noone will come in unless someone else (Dagger) is being sold."
"Again, we drag our heels. I think the majority of fans would like to see some new players come in. At the moment it's mainly outgoing and rumours of yet more ( Agger, Bellamy etc. )"
"tommyt.....if you judge allen on the olympics why not judge Gaston Ramirez.... all he did was score a free kick. Im pretty sure you havent seen him play for bologna and you only heard about his stats..... What more you want allen to do....hes the type of player who does the simple things that allows the team to play. Although im not say Ramirez is bad.....but dont judge players on 1-2 games."
"Unlikely but yes please, even if it's just for one season he is a class act, proved that at Dortmund and could help us to the top 4. Then we will be able to attract to the top names again when he returns to Madrid."
"Rumours of Guidetti and Tello on loans with possible options look exciting too. Definitely need a bit more flair in the squad to push for a decent spot and it'd be nice to see us get on the good end of a loan deal or two for once. "
"Yes bring him in, quality player !!! Maybe this is what brendan was on about exploring the loan market !!! Bring in his Turkish team mate too, Arda Turan !!!"
"loan would suit perfectly, one season at liverpool and he'd want to sign permanently as he's out of favour at Real anyway. Gaston Ramirez should be the priority though!! "
"Wow....Sahin, Allen, Gerrard, Lucas, wonderful "Hendo", Joe Cole and Downing all in one midfield! No wonder we can sell Agger and Carrol without replacing their positions! We're going to play the innovative 2-7-1 system!Genius! If they can't get across the halfway line, they can never score!"
"Some say Johnson is a certain as a part deal with Agger going Man City, some midfielder worthy 15m from the Swans, the remember the crazy rumour from the guardian even saying we are on lucas moura AND VAN PERSIE, just believe done deals like Luis commiting to us long term. Otherwise plenty players at our academy. Why worry."
"come on fsg lets get hands in your pockets we need strengthening not weakening by selling our best players to fund new players i'm getting pretty worried now don't know about everyone else :("
"After yesterday's great news about Suarez, today we have BBC reporting, willing to let Agger go and Bellamy likely to join Cardiff this week :-( Surely we need to get players in before we let anymore go, especially a couple of our better ones ?"
"BIG TOE IT WASNT SO LONG AGO A GROUP FROM DUBAI WANTED TO BUY US AT LEAST THEY LOVE FOOTBALLAND WOULD HAVE INVESTED THE MONEY FOR TO COMPETE UNTIL WE OFFLOAD ALL YANKS WE HAVE NO CHANCE "
"BR every player has his price? why sell our best to the champs if agger goes no hope of top 4 it will cost 15m for a half decent replacementwho would need time to gell with M.S,cara to slow in preseason ive seen 3times when he beaten for pace the hand comes out to pull defender backmeaning free kick or pen."
"joe allen isnt even worth 10mil. im not saying 1 day he could be but on last season alone?? if sahin comes in thats another centre mid. does Buck also not see like prev managers we need wingers?!?! also surely this means we'll look to move spearing, adam and downing out? please!!"
"Micky - a group from the Middle East bought Malaga too and now the club is selling off all it's good players after one season of success. There is as much reason to think the same would have happened with DIC as there is they would have invested as the owners of Citeh and PSG."
"As I said earlier, 1 hope. This is the lads latest comment:
Sahin: "I would not be interested in a team that are not compeive,
such as Newcastle or Liverpool. When I am gone, I would like to improve
as a player and to do that I have play with other quality players, which
I do not have at those clubs.""
"With FSG at the helm I cannot see this happening. FSG bought LFC for a small sum, namely 300mill, whilst the club was worth at least 500mill. They sold players And bought in. Net spend is low.
With FSG LFC will remain a mid table club.
"
"why are we offering 15m for a player who had 1 good season with a much smaller club (this sounds like adam signing)when we can get this guy on loan and save our money on midfielders (think we have enough)and strengthen elsewhere YNWA"
"cant see the use in signing players on loan,surely it will take them the whole of the duration they are with us to settle in.Thats wat happened with all KD useless signings!!We must spend some money,dont care if this speculation or not.SPEND NOT LOAN"
"Need another winger to Partner Suarez and Borini, Downing isn't up to scratch. Ramirez or Johnson would be perfect, Dempsey and Adam s deal, keep Agger at all costs, maybe a few loans to strengthen our bench options. Looking forward to this season! YNWA"
"if he is such good friends with Mourinho why dont we ask are they willing to sell us Ronaldo haha. on a serious note it would be good to get sahin on loan although our main aim should be to snap up gaston ramirez and maybe throw some money at victor moses and adam johnson if we have any money in the kitty left after getting allen & ramirez"
"This is pure speculation because neither BR or Jose has said so. Will wait till its done deal just like Joe's. Fed up with these linked producing nothing."
"This is pure speculation because neither BR or Jose has said so. Who said they are close after all. Will wait till its done deal just like Joe's. Fed up with these linked producing nothing.journalists come come with all sort of rubbish. Am fed up"
"heared a rumour last night that a johnson will be an lfc player soon fee about 13m hope its true also think we need another striker and ramires then job done come on you mighty reds"
"Midfielders! Midfielders! Midfielders! Dat's all i see all the time. What happens 2 out attack? Llorente is available nw. Go get him br nd neva u sell agger 2 an epl club."
"Let's hope the deal goes through, because the player does prefer AC Milan instead.
Let's just trust BR and see who he'll sign, no matter who BR signs, he signs the attributes that he think that will fit in to his philosophy.
NB: Juan Manuel Iturbe (FC Porto), scout him."
"i think roger implement false 9 tactical...sahin is good option so do ramirez...winger is not we desrately needed if LFC really means to play tiki taka style"
"This article is now nearly a week old is there no new transfer news or gossip to debate the only thing that keeps popping up is Clint Dempsey at 31 i hope this is not true what has happened to the talk of Gaston Ramieres. "
"What I find disappointing is we haven't aimed to bring in more creative flair of Suarez's calibre I hope we do this before the end of the transfer window I was disappointed when Chelsea got Mata last summer, If Spurs get Ramirez it will be similar we need more players with creative flair who can beat opponents if Suarez isn't playing we need others who can do something similar"
"look we just overpaid for allen and borini so why cant we not go after kevin mirallas
he is very sweety and very skillful like suarez and he is very cheap at 7 mil so lets please get him "
"Out of question to sell Agger & Caroll to fund for new players. FSG spent Hundred of Millions for its Baseball team. Their net spending at LFC is around 50M. As they promised they CAN & MUST invest. Selling our best players will not make us go to top 4."
"plz try getting rid off hendo-spearing-adam and carrol and try getting mirallas 7mil-sahin-ramirez 15mil and dempsey 10mil in total of 35mil for all three and would good signing for liverpool also use hendo-spearing and adam to make those deals smooth if posible cuz there isn't much they can do for us"
"Allen has a high rate passing in statistics. But we need creative players who can have vision & break the defence. Such player may not be high in the pass rate but makes the few right splitting defence pass & dribbling ability whilst going forward to kill the opponent. "
"What's the point of having this page? Have we seriously not been in the news regarding transfer talk for a whole week? Rubbish, There has been loads of talk on Sky sports news and all the papers so if your not going to update this then why have it? Its called MEDIA WATCH and we know its not what the club says but why should we have to go elsewhere to read about our own club?"
"We know its not for "NEWS" There's a latest news page. We understand the disclaimer. This is for the transfer gossip that we ALL love to read. And its why the sponsors pay the club so much to be on this site. Why isnt it regularly updated??? "
"is it just coincidence that spurs seems to be interested players we are looking at as well?? avb is looking more like a sh*t stirrer esp. with bale "injury"...lol"
"Black liverpool fans are getting worried. Andre ayew is available, nice price, and garanteed to perform, why are we not bidding for him at a reasonably price? This all british thing has some sense, but we cannot be left behind. cutting nose to spite face, not litteraly, but close
"

"When will Liverpool fc build a new modern staduim to compete with the the other big clubs in eurpoe imagine a 18,500 seater kop it would be amazing. We also need a bigger pitch the Anfield pitch is smaller than most pitches in the world. If Arsenal can build one surely Liverpoolfc can do it."
"If he decides to come then i feel Charlie Adams and Spearing will be restricted to cameo appearances this season. I love his vision...reminds me of Aqua man."
"this would be a good signing but that means less games for people like shelvey, henderson, adam and lucas. so therefore i dont think we really need another midfielder at the moment, unless we sell some of our own before!!! YNWA"
"Look its about time the owners and management smell the salt and invest in a couple of creative and lethal players asap or LFC r going to be fighting relegation not fighting for a top 4 position.The so called lesser teams have already shown that they r going 2 fight for survival and even top of table places."
"Ramirez or Johnson. Dempsey, Adebayor, or Defoe. Even Michael Owen would probably up our goals just now, though I jest really. If we have the money we should get 2 in. Maybe even Berbatov could plug a gap. Otherwise we pray Suarez has an epiphane and finds the net more often. Interesting even WBA can pull Ukaku off the bench (£18mill striker!)"
"Nonsense, this fella dissed us and Newcastle as teams not challenging for honours, so he wants to go to Arsenal?..............thinks................."
"Looks like he's off to Arsenal after all. We've just bought Allen so what's the point in signing him in the first place? If Mourinho wants to loan us someone, let him send us Kaka. At least he'll add something to the team."
"after saturdays performance we should see if we got the funds to take Moses for 9mil off wigan and stop sunderland getting adam johnson for 10mil. they're quick, creative, can beat players and score goals!!"
"why in the hell would sahin want to listen to jose ... when the reason he's going out of madrid is jose himself .... and gunners got cl spot while we got el only .... jose isnt a factor here"
