Arne Slot's First Transfer Targets | Talking Reds LIVE

it is toen Reds and I'm joined by the absolute boys this lovely Tuesday morning hope you had a lovely Bank color day I am John G I'm joined as build uh by Josh xon and Mike KY you're like I know what the absolute boys are uh but you know you got need to be uh need to be for on this thing football season is over but transfer season is upon us and that is the big one and so we've got uh loads of news on transfer shows at thefield rapper coming out but we'll have a little chat as well about any links that we have seen H but first of all huge thanks to North VPN for partnering with us to the end of May and hopefully uh Beyond who shall see uh from that but they've certainly parted with us for the chunk of the end of the season and we do really appreciate that and more ONN VPN to come but it is the transfer business now Mike and and it's a funny one really because normally we'd have a greater awareness of of links and things like that but with the managerial change and also the back room change and the fact that the people who've come in are famously tight lipped uh it does mean that you do feel like everyone sort of scratching around a little bit for names at the moment and you're trying to figure out of the ones you're seeing what is concrete and what isn't yeah we we've had like a proper setup periods of no and right oh there's a name that makes sense when we've been linked with them we're going to sign him and now it's back to like where's Jo's half 10 tweet like every you're watching like and you're seeing these links and you're like well don't know it might it might be him just might be some mad fell I've seen something before that came in before I think it might even be off robs robs agenda for the gutter next and it was like he went to South America and I was like I've never seen anyone play like I don't watch Brazilian or Argentinian football but like three weeks time he could be sitting here talking about some fow who's been playing like 80 games a season because the Brazilian League's mad in it but he play loads of games and like Dave fellows and all all all the fellas who are like paid to know to sign it over there having a belt to time like watch him or should sign him you know he's good so it's it's it is a bit up in the air isn't it like we don't we don't know we've never seen an Anish laot team really play football we don't know who he wants we're led to believe it's quite similar and he's happy with what we've got so it's all mad and like we could sign someone we we might we're definitely going to sign people AR yeah they'll definitely sign someone um Josh you know Neil keeps saying they've not HED all these people just to have a summer off you I mean like we've got like now the almost you know the biggest technical team in World football in terms of you know in terms of behind the scenes if you're like but he's just you're not really sure on who because like Mike said you know the new manager how does he want a player what does he think of of what he's got he seems quite happy with what he got but I'm sure he'll understand a little bit gaps there's some interesting links to to players that he's worked with already in terms of you know midfielder Defender and and and and up front as well but is that you know always like a little bit lazy kind of thing or or or you know are we going to get the next Joe Allen uh for Brendon Rogers it's going to come out over the next couple of weeks but it might be like Mike says suddenly there's a half you might have to stay up late again again that's your bedtime Jo famously early bedtime as well yeah like it's it's that it's dead interesting so far because I think like usually Liverpool sort transfer targets like you there seems to be no middle ground really like you either get an Alexi mallister where it's reported from day one that drags out for for forever and Liverpool eventually get it done or it's one of those like sosai where it just seems to come out completely out the blue and I wonder now with this new team and and with the new manager and stuff is is it more likely to be the latter where it does come a little about the blue rather than the ones that sort of long and now like you you know you mentioned the thing about what Neil said where you know you don't go and hire as you say one of the biggest technical teams in World football to just come and sit on the hands for a whole summer and it's the it's the timing of when they were hired which is sort of most interesting for me as well it was it was all sort of just after the New Year sort of February March kind of time wasn't it when Michael Edwards came in Julian Ward I think he probably the latest appointment to to things there Richard Hughes I think was was was he an end of the season one I think about him um so so there's a couple there who's sort of coming in across different times but you imagine from the minute Michael Edwards gets back into to the club obviously he's got to you know build that team around him but it be looking at the the you know the first team squad as well thinking about the profile of the new manager who who was coming in and it sounds like you know from pretty early on they decided that slot was going to be one of one of the key contenders for that and the reason for that was they had this idea of how they wanted to play football and how much you know continuity they wanted to have from Jurgen klopp's team so I think they they've already had you know similar sort of football on on their radar from that point yeah no I think that is all fair to say you know the a bit a profile of player that they've be looking at you know for a while now in sorts of different positions and you don't imagine that changing and too much uh do get your commenting by the way if you're watching live on YouTube let us know who you think uh we should be going in for if it's not a name then a position that you'd like to see us um you know going after strongly I guess but it is the information that that you know s are craving and you mentioned the gutter now is you know Rob's hosting now and we've got loads of transfer shows going out at the moment which I run down in a minute but you know on the gut it you're looking at it there's a couple of of Center halfs linked and things like that but Michael Edwards He's Back In Charge he gives very little away he's tighter than you when it's your round in the G book and so like I'll be honest Mike I'm not really got a point I just wants to make that joke that's cuz Andy's buying all his points once one a week he was trying to say the terms and conditions week so it's installments I'm also of the Guin do you want to share the bet with with the room oh yeah it was um it was famously and he doesn't really race to nunas very well does he and and and I I I just put a number out there because he got 19 goals and assists from the season before so I was like sound 25 is a fair number question mark and any bit any bit on it so I was like that's easy he's he's going to run home with that surely and he did and then andie's trying to say like um he didn't read the Tweet properly like come on you've got eyes you defin ready on you but who's the real winner you know what I mean the real quis is the three 10 10 points against us on the way so yeah I don't what was your question would be tight like with information you mean so it might be might so it's the I think it's the anniversary of the fabino signing either today or yesterday Accord according to our social anyway and I mean Liam never gets anything exactly and so um and that was one way to come out know maybe there'll be a cheeky one or two of them yeah because as Josh mentioned before so life sort of happened on the same day didn't it was like it was a mad Sunday in the summer Li might be interested to oh yeah by the way he's done he like sound yeah even the Thiago one came out of the bles and in covers well they were s of denying it for ages one more out the the was really out to like they both happen in the quick and it's like oh oh yeah s we' got to go football now and there's not really be any solid link yet because you can't you know the manager's not in place even like when klopp announced that he was leaving and you were seeing like random links you were like how' you know the the fell hasn't even looked at the plays he's got in the in the eyeball yet and said I nice to meet you like he's and know all of a sudden you telling me he wants to sign some some fella from like the Italian League who we've only ever seen play like four times so it's it is it is sort of a bit a bit mad but Michael Edward has probably got like the The Joker bount and his his H his laptop and his air conditions office from from years and years a go still knocks round it so and that laptop is still kept up to date with who's playing football in in like you know I remember reading something we sandigi and and and the article was like saying we have footage of him when he was 15 playing like in some League somewhere or some like you football and you're like that that's just that's mad I like it's it's it's got to be that detail because they need to know the sign and we've seen for years I me how it's about the character and stuff like that so we just see the name on the on the on the like the headline the tweets or what ever when it pops up but Dale definitely had all sorts of information and and backgrounds upon that ladden yeah I I expect us to do business in several areas I think centor half could be massive because M Up's gone and and didn't really feature from December on last year um and you know Gomez never really got played there last season he was out of full back cover so then that leaves you canate quaner and Van djk and canate is never you know fit all the time is he he's had some trouble so I there's definitely business to be done there what is a positive Josh is that a lot seems to be sorted from our end that you look it around at the moment and there's you know Chelsea are looking for the new manager and you know it looks like they've chosen the Leicester one which is sort of quite interesting but there's still a lot of question marks not just in in in the Premier League but across Europe of teams who we're going to be helping compete with in in in the Champions League and it does feel like we've got a lot more sort of than others obviously the the back room staff are now are now taking effect as well there's there's information they've lynched to a story of the weekend about about some of AR slot's team and and there's a couple of appointments now who sort to come over from Holland there's a couple of others to be an advertised on LinkedIn which people lost their mind about and I'm like that's that's that's why that's where people look for jobs you know what I mean like they're not just jobs that you H hire people for and maybe interview like do you know what I mean it's not like we're looking for Center forward on LinkedIn like people even were a little bit sort of funny about that but I was all right with it it's the modern world uh might find someone boss um but um yeah but but if it does feel like you know man city aside and we're going to come on to talk about them in the second half and obviously Man City and Arsenal got a lot of stability but in terms of you know all the clubs who who were trying to sort of catch up it does feel like we've got a lot more sorted on and off the pitch than than some of the others yeah absolutely I think they like the weird thing about LinkedIn is because it's social media isn't it and some people just use social media basically for their jokes that's like that's the reason I follow you Mike and Jordan to honest it's just is just to get all my good content there but yes it's it's interesting even seeing some of some of the names that are sort of floating around because you mentioned before about you know the almost easier Links of of the lads who somerville's worked with performs obviously you sorry the the slots work with performs obviously Somerville from leads uh is what I was going to go on to say and you know he's he's played at the weekend and and I saw your your Tweet saying sort of saying you know you know you watched him and you thought he was crap I thought leads were crap as well which is absolutely brilliant to be honest because I'm so I'm so glad they've not come up but um he's he's had a great season in in the championship there's all all these sort of you know Styles and sort of things you can think about in terms of matching up to to what the new gaffa is going to going to want when he when he comes in like I I'm just de intrigued to see you know the way that the the way the team's going to set up and things that but as as Mike says you know he's he's almost got to get his his foot in the door first really doesn't need and and decide all that before he can before he can even think about who's going to be coming in that's where I think it will sort of fall more fall more on on Michael Edwards and the Richard Hughes and Julian Wars to be going out and sort of doing a lot of that a lot of that ground work for him and we'll be we'll be talking through some of the links quite a few people s mentioning names in in the comments there we'll be talking through some of them on the gutter which as you said before we're recording after this and I've got some got some stats to go through for that as well some some Red Hot staty Stuff so uh so yeah you can look out for that on the Anup to come as well well here um is uh our full um schedule in terms of transfers before I'll ask Josh to to bring in a couple of those comments that he's just trailed there but the goil like we've said a couple of times is been recorded now Josh does some stats for it as well that'll be going out as audio and video we've got the famous transfer committee games uh if you don't know what they are h a group of and F contributors come together they get a load of information from Neil in terms of values in terms of ins and outs you can sell and basically those three or four people have to decide what they would do if Liverpool's transfer committee if they were sorry Liverpool transfer committee I've listened to the first one it is absolutely carnish I did the fourth one there's a fifth one being recorded today so most people get a go well pretty much everyone who want want to go sort of get one it is really good for everyone goes in different directions on it it's meant to be a laugh and when you're hear that first one um you you're certainly s to laugh on there really enjoyable but it is a good experiment as well what actually would you do if if fances are limited and and you can sort of sell and buy and bring in what tough decisions that would you make or what you you would prioritize and so the first one is out for audio subscribers and yeah loads of other stuff in terms of going out on the on the anfield rap as well so good time to subscribe and when we are linked with people and when the links do become a little bit famir the likes of me and Josh we'll be speaking to people on you know from from the clubs of people who' have seen them trying to find out some more about these solid links so as ever really good time to subscribe to the ELD appap uh download the app get stuck in and yeah let us know what you think and also um to to rate the people who Josh has just said on social media from the ELD ra Jordan Singleton is number one he is the one you should be following uh especially when he goes back home me me me and Josh get him on a l when when he goes back to Northern isand because basically has a p and tweet to match um so if if you're inter sort of that sort of thing all killer no filler all killer no filler if if you like crane chat and you might say I'm not sure to do but you do don't you don't know how much you do until you do exactly uh it's like I always say Joshua was that's why he's a good good good follow as well I put him too um so there you that um so a couple of comments to bring in before we have a little break yeah so the God Almighty has been on he says up the Reds which I highly agree with Pete B says what do we make of Addy Amy links think he's the lad from Dortmund isn't he says output seems very low for a wild forward there just a couple of names being thrown around really James LFC 86 says about verela being linked Leon Evans singer I can't guess his profession to be honest but he says E from Palace uh is is a good shout there someone who's basically broken down all those links um which which is good he says he'd love a um there's more some of chat uh Sandi supat says we probably need a younger DM which I presume stands for dude Meister 25 years oldish so I think he's trying to replace me with someone slightly younger um I'm here to stay unfortunately as the dude Meister of this of this live stream that's Trade Mark by the way don't try and use absolutely patented um and Welsh Road Runner says we're heavily link with teram last year likely again this time like I'm I'm sort of I don't know about you boys I'm sort of leaning more towards the the sort of endo type six and probably going for someone a bit younger as well because Endo has almost allowed us to cheat in that regard now a little bit like I think it'll be it'll be really good for btic that Endo is going to be around this this season sort of you know allow him to be he back in cuz I don't think he's going to come straight back in and hit the ground running obviously we we all would hope that he does I think I think somebody like teram you you heard that the noises from last summer that they consider him to be a similar player to to saber Sly and that was the reason they didn't go from the end and decided to go for for saber s so he doesn't feel necessarily to me like the sort of midfielder we need this summer no the interesting thing about teram is that his contracts up in 12 months I think that's right and so you know they're talking about you know being able to get him for a decent price and and and you know these s of love that so so that might bring him into play a little little bit there's also um midfielder who who slots had a fire not who whose name's jump jumped out to my head I'm sorry but is is someone who who he's been linked with quite quite a lot and and has spoken up as as a potential you know really sort of top player and and you don't think he he' costed the moon but you know sort of wait and see on that one you see how how what the others at the club sort of think of them I don't know if any of them jump out for you m in terms of names that have just been mentioned ver verel is a the portal fell is he yeah I really just want him say the verella fella Tong Twisted is it since we lost the Cherry fell the Cherry fell the verella fell sounds like a like like a solid number six that we could we can all get on board with at least for his name alone really um I don't know ad Amy I watched it I watched the Champions League quite closely to be honest like the the semes and he was rapid like and he kept getting loads of chances and I think like he he went from salsburg I think to leig yeah leig sorry Dortmund and I think he was like like more Central Striker but he's played wide loads and he was he was getting back and that that was one thing I was like interesting going I wonder if we've got any any money to spend maybe we'd be looking at that like uh someone who who gets back just as well as they get forwards and like he he was just explosive and Powerful I was like I'd love a bit of that but maybe the maybe the output's issue is the fact that he doesn't put the ball in the net as much as he you'd like maybe and I imagine dman would be asking for a lot of money for one of their players who starts games for them you know he's starting in the semi-final you imagine he's going to have a good chance to start in in the final but like that sort of player explosive Pace just no fair running that year like I do feel as if we tried we've tried to do that a couple of times I mean we tried to do it differently as well everyone remembers the K San thinking we San the best midfielder in the world and how he was talked about how he carried the ball um and Diaz when he came in carried the ball seem seemingly a lot more than he does now but like I I don't know where to caught in between two styles of play there aren't we like we want you to do all this but then you come in actually just play our way cuz it's better so it's like you don't you don't know do you in terms of we bring someone in because they've been doing something really good for someone else and we've seen something that like like like when we s Genies probably the biggest one isn't he like he scored loads of go he scored goals for Newcastle he did he score four in one game or something one time I'm mad and then we just Dro in's the best number number eight SL six at times in the world doing everyone's work was getting criticized for SC goals but that's that's the sort that it all depends on the system doesn't it and if we're buying someone who's meant to be like like the genie thing if he's or we're not getting as many goals from him yeah but he's won the ball back and gave it to sadio dead and you know is Sadi man is going to score or set or set M up or set Bobby up so like we just need that find out what the system is and and sign the players up based off that I suppose of course s man is like me in the office uh just to making everything happen up top um hope you enjoyed that like I say loads more if you do subscribe to the anfield rap the gut is going to be straight after this you got all those transfer committe shows you got loads of great stuff on the A app at the moment so do get stuck in and but before we talk a little bit about some other Football news outside of Liverpool I do want to give a shout out to nor VPN who've partnered with us for this run of talking Reds and also from our audio stuff as well we do really appreciate it it was nice to meet a couple of the guys from North VPN last week as as well podcast show which I went down to uh so so I to the lad there but we do appreciate it and also I'm a user of nor VPN a couple of the other guys have done it I know Rob's talked about using it we've set well up we've said Jordan up sort of over there as well and there's loads of fantastic reasons U to use it and benefits to the service uh there's greater protection so there's greater security and peace of mind especially when you're using public Wi-Fi in different countries or or or things like that but I think one of the Premier benefits for for me and I know a lot of you who who've let us know that you ought enjoying it is the ability to change your virtual location and enjoy things like TV or streaming services because you get streaming services cheaper uh apparently as well and other other things that benefits to that but but watching the TV in other countries from where you are is really beneficial and I know Mr Craig Hannon who's gone on holiday this week is making sure that he's tuning into Bargain Hunts every day H I was trying to F the funniest TV show I could think he did he could be watching every see K vun be yeah I could see Kon VG hunt yeah he'd be good well that's why he's watching it to uh to pick up skills so when he goes on he'll absolutely smash it I was trying to think of an old joke in there as well but I don't want to offend any any of the any of the viewers by by suggesting that a program is for all people but I mean maybe Bargain Hunt is yeah yeah I would say so any real deal yeah yeah um so that's what Craig's watching cently on holiday and that could be you too um so it's nod vpn.com nod vpn.com you get four months free if you go through our link and also the are that sure you will enjoy it and that show that you'll get some a lot from it then you get a 30-day money back guarantee so yeah if you if within 30 days if if you're not enjoying it or or you're not it's not for you you can get your money back within 30 days that's how sure they are that you will enjoy it um but moving on to a couple of other things that have happened over the weekend you mentioned the playoff games obviously that was that was big news Southampton coming back to the to the Premier League which they were delighted about I watched the the the celebrations yesterday and they were absolutely made up so so fair play on that but there was also this the the Cy breaking the Pep Guardiola is going to do one more year he just constantly copies I think it is fair to say and everything that he does but it is an interesting one if it is true you won't be surprised he sort of said on the record as he listen what else have got to do you know it's four League titles now he's won he's won the first champions league for Manchester City and it does sort of you know end up getting a bit bit Samy for you it does the intensity as well he's an intense man sort of similar don't think berardo Silva basically pulls his trick every single summer being like Oh Yeah I'm going to leave there's like I've already seen Romano the day like there's a 50 million release clause in his contract he's a liar I'm I'm not saying you are by the way maybe you are but but Bernardo Silva definitely is so so I wouldn't I wouldn't be trusting that but yes it'll be really interesting to see there'll be there'll be a load of clubs around around the league who are breathing a sigh of relief like I've seen I've seen loads of Arsenal fans already sort of you know weighed down by the by the scale of having to try and catch this this Manchester City side they might have an eye on our T exactly so it'll be yeah that that'll be even interesting to see you know for for us obviously it would be you know a huge s relief if he goes we we we yet to see what the slot era looks like but if the slot era can get off to to a good start in those first 12 months and then sudden suddenly Guardiola out the door at city after that then you know the it it might feel like the worlds are are oyer from that point so yeah I I can certainly say that I won't be crying any tears of sadness when when when pep guard Guardiola eventually leaves the Premier League yeah I mean the obvious stuff that comes out is that always jumping before the air charges and stuff like that I mean we we'll sort of see that but you know it is you know it does open things up doesn't it and if if you're like like Josh say you're an Arsenal fan and you're looking at it you thinking well you know well if we can just you know make sure we keep developing you know keep keep the keep the squad key and things like that then there's an opportunity there and it will be interesting post Guardiola to see how much of City's dominance was him how much of it was was the ownership you know how much of it's the the players you've got to expect some dip having you after him because you know he is such an incredible coach that whoever they bring in will feel like a a bit of a downgrade but also there'll be a bit of an adjustment yeah look when they when they brought him in I think everyone was was where he went they like you know the fellas won leagues are bu him and basa and there's the whole thing about how yeah he's done it with a with a big checkbook of course he has like you're not soft we're not going to say no he hasn't there's a point where he s fullbacks for 50 million pounds every single summer but at the end of the day what he's doing on the training pick to the players that he's able to get into his Squad yeah is is fantastic like and keeping them going as well like the relentlessness it's it's it's it must be exhausting if you're a player of is like honestly like the level you must you've got to be at we chased it for years and we beat them we absolutely pulverized them to be honest with you in in 1920 we were that good that they couldn't keep up with us so that that should be remembered at all times like they they literally couldn't hold on to us we obliterated them and and we got we got closer than than anyone Arsenal finished two points behind them you know they haven't quite done it the full experience a point behind them and then them going two n down the final day ex exceptional sort of a levels of absolutely being you know gutted by by by by a by a colossal machine but they are they are there because they've spent an awful lot of money and and he will continue to do so but they've got the best man man manager not man manager best best coach I think was probably the best man manager and one of the best coaches in the world and that sort of package built up to be able to to compete with gu and beat him like on more than one occasion you know in oneoff games and over the whole season that that's a a massive thing to replace I think before guarda goes in they've won six out of eight haven't they I think he's been there eight years now has he or seven years must be six or eight years sorry and he's um he's won six six titles out of the eight years he finished fourth in his first season and second TOS yeah so like the first season you s to go yeah all right he was not quite good his the squads he's got now he's not got quite the ideas over took took a while to adjust but then when it did you know you you see the level that the players have got the the constant it's like it's like a Metron isn't it that's what everyone said about Barcelona it's boring where he had Messi in his team he had Nest like Javi all these players that were just good at doing what he wanted over and over and over again until you just beat it into submission which is what man city like they went two against two down sorry against lusin didn't he IG sorry in and I was watching The Comeback and the fans weren't even asked I was like through though we through but like three two three two comebacks F you know like not we Sniff and like you just come back 32 they've done it a lot this season hav where they you know they they got through games tightly and stuff like that and I don't know it maybe it is just the thing is like well I'll do five in AOW and then I'll get off cuz I'm like me m me me main sparing Partners gone from Liverpool artet has been all right but I've definitely had his number and he's not like arsal probably haven't really been brave enough to come and do me at my own game this season and and is there a manager who can do that do want with manini and Pelini before Guardiola didn't he and and other than that it's been Guardiola so it's going to be a real like a real period of adjustment for them and like Josh mentioned there we could be settled after a year who knows what next season brings we may even go Clos and to ourselves but If he if he does get off we we're us and ARS will be looking at each other say we're set the best year let's let's have a go let's have a go indeed H hope you've enjoyed talking V huge thanks to Josh and to Mike for coming in and speaking to us uh to Jor for filming it as well just a couple of uh thing quick
