Jacquet still didnt train again today.
Doubt for Monaco friendly.
The league starts in just over 2 weeks.
We have 1 fit centre back.

6th August 2026 at 3:14 pm #252292The recovery time for Leoni’s ACL has been particularly disappointing. The average these days for young and fit professional players, with the best surgical techniques and under the best medical care available is about 7 – 8 months, 9 to be on the safe side. Leoni’s return is clearly going to be well above the current average and probably at least 12 months before he plays in a competitive game. Just seems that whatever can go wrong, will go wrong for us when it comes to putting out 2 dependable CBs.

6th August 2026 at 8:40 pm #252314My bet is still on Spence for the fullback, he does not care if he is on the left or right as long as he gets game time.
Who it will be as center back I don’t know but I have a feeling we are gonna sign one.

6th August 2026 at 10:26 pm #252321I find it it kind of funny that everyone here believes the tabloids or some IN THE KNOW individual.
I doubt a single reporter has mentioned a target we do not know about.
The only thing the reporters might be right about is the fees mentioned.
We are signing Barcola, we are looking at a number of fullbacks, FFS Trent might even rejoin the club.
The same goes for center backs.
Maybe I should just change my tune this summer and start stating that we will not sign anyone and that the club is getting sold, then maybe the forum will change it’s tune.

6th August 2026 at 11:40 pm #252324The dominos should start falling right now with Diomande signing and Vinicius agreeing to a contract extension, I think the Barcola deal has to happen during the weekend.
Then we have another two weeks to find someone else.

7th August 2026 at 1:57 am #252329Rob, the thing is some transfer are destined to happen, we fought for Isak, we fought for Wirtz, we did the same thing with Alison and Van Dijk and some other transfers.
The fees are different but the approach remains the same, we are only in for targets that want to play for the club and I could not be happier about that.
Diomande as exciting as he is would have used the club as a stepping stone to get that transfer to Madrid, thankfully we skipped out on him, Barcola could have gone to Madrid as well but he wants to be valued.
I like the players that want to commit their best years to the club, those are the targets I value as a fan. I donΒ΄t care how much we spend, I only value that commitment from both sides.
We are not far off from a very good side that can challenge, last season was one part the yo-yo effect another part bad tactics.
When we have pace going forward, the rest of the league should be scared of us…
Then the thing is transfermarkt has been down for most of the day, so nobody is getting any info at any site, itΒ΄s mostly based from there.

7th August 2026 at 6:18 am #252337Mbaye is more explosive, dynamic, unpredictable and faster than Diomande, but most importantly, he costs just a third of the price.
If he can sort out his mentality and discipline, then he could truly fulfil his potential to become a really top player, hopefully for Liverpool.

7th August 2026 at 6:26 am #252339Looks like Iraola will have to use one of our youth centre-backs (Chambers, Ndiaye) if our three injured CBs don’t recover in time and we don’t sign a new CB.
What I don’t want to see is Endo or Gravenberch at CB ever again.

7th August 2026 at 6:27 am #252340“Yeh, Threeps. No reason to withhold the announcement if itβs βbeen done.β Contracts will want to be completed, Barcola sign and get to Kirkby asap for preseason with his new club.”
I think he’s still on mandatory 3 weeks holiday so wouldn’t be able to join up until Monday anyway, so announcing earlier would only serve to settle some very impatient fans.

7th August 2026 at 7:09 am #252344Songman,Chambers is not a centre back. Hes a left full
Maddness if we dont get cover for cb. Leoni will not be match ready for months . No pl experience. Jaquet no pre-season games . Gomez is gomez.vvd cannot play same minutes as last season and is 35. We tried to sign guhei last year when we had gomez, konate, vvd and leobi.
Jaquet replaces konate but we badly meed a cb. Aloso a rb in an ideal world. We concede far to many gosls. Different manager now i know but if we see jones/szobo at rb or grav at cb its maddness.
I think we will bring plsyers in but cb has to be a priority. That and pace on the wings. We are stacked with midfielders and someone has to leave before someone else brought in

7th August 2026 at 7:17 am #252345There’s a lot of talk that there will be one or even two announcements today. Craig of Anfield Agenda mentioned it a couple of days ago, it’s all over the rumours site I follow. Heck even Moonster has mentioned it!
We shall see…
Assuming Barcola signs then we need to sell if we need to use no HG spots. Mbaye wouldn’t count due to his age. Maybe this is why Spence is linked? If he wasn’t home grown I doubt we’d look at him to be honest.
There’s been a bit of talk about some Spanish guy that has a very cheap buy out that is a full back but can play CB.
I still want Kounde, but we’d need to free a space first.

7th August 2026 at 10:34 am #252353Are you suggesting that could have anything to do with the reason why an agreed deal for Barcola hasn’t been announced yet Ginger?!
Nope been told there’s no reason whatsoever for a delay. We must be miles apart in valuation still.

So how come he played all games in pre-season at centre-back, Sean?
Maybe Iraola sees him as a centre-back, although he’s been a left-back up to now, and is quite short for a CB at 5ft 11in.

7th August 2026 at 11:41 am #252361LFC’s alleged ‘final’ Barcola offer went in this morning….personally i think the fee is crazy, but that’s what happens when you become desperate FC! No plan…over pay!
