Another "bog" standard transfer.

Yeah but the lad can sing...

WHO?

Anyone know if he's any good?

How good is he?

Is the club having a laugh?! He's no better than Brad Jones, people at the club need to get a grip with this transfers.

Holly testicle Tuesday laughing so much my lungs are gonna fall out, suppose it's impossible to find a keeper above championship level.

A championship level number 2.

Arsenal probably getting Cech.

At this stage it's got to the point I'm thinking our transfer committee draws up a list and they see just how far they can go down that list that we'll swallow it. A complete and utter joke.

We're basically signing the Bolton number 2 to be our number 2.

 Everything is becoming a number 2 at this club.

Scrimping beyond belief.

How do you know?

Listen I'm not over the moon by this news either but I'd love to know how many times anyone on here has actually seen this guy play?

If it was more than twice I'd be surprised.

I pretty much chocked on my dinner when I realised this was a genuine thread.  Another freebie who will demand f**k all wages.

I've given up.

How so you know?

He played in the prem for Bolton and he was questionable at best. He's Bolton's number two, that says it all!

I think the fact he's number 2 to Andy Lonergan at Bolton mate should be enough to suggest he's not the standard we should be looking at.

This is one I do remember of Bogdan:

Conceding that goal must have been horrible, that bounce was wicked

If this actually happens...

Neil Jones has broke this in the Echo as well. From Matt Ryan to Neto to Marshall to Bogdan.. WTF have we come down to??! 

Free market it is then!! Luiz Adriano, Konoplyanka, Ayew, Gignac, Ranocchia, Vlaar - who's next??!

Not advocating getting him, but I believe he's actually Bolton's number 1. Won his job back (sound familiar).

I've seen around rumours of us being in for Kasper Schmeichel too. He probably costs a tenner though so we've probably swerved it.

I guess we are signing him based on his performance against us in the FA cup.... nice one.

It is a joke that a player of Brad Jones' level has managed to stay at LFC for so long, and the fact we could be replacing him with someone from a similar level is frustrating to say the least.

Wonder if he's meant to be our #3. He won't give Migs much competition but as a #3 option it would be a good pickup on a free.

Pipedream my friend 

f**ker had a good game against us and we stay scouting him....

Retarded scouting system

Quite ridiculous alright

We're signing him based on the fact he's free, does anyone really think we would have signed him if he wasn't? This club is a F***ing joke with how it does business, absolutely obsessed with scrimping on every penny it can, Boltons F***ing number 2, Jesus Christ.

So this guy is supposed to challenge Mig for the GK starting spot? A backup championship player? What the F**k....

Lad played a half decent game against us in the FA Cup, sound let's sign him.

Depressing stuff.

same level of Brad Jones.

a like for like

a #2 goalkeeper in football has to be the most pointless position ever...except if you're #2 for barca

Another reason I'm not going mad on this one is I dont think we have the money to be pissing about on a second keeper this summer as we have far more pressing issues.

Mignolet is perfectly fine going into the season and I'd take a chance and use the money  . The forward positions.

I agree with what you're saying to an extent. But it seems like we're constantly filling out squad with average players. It's important to instil a winning mentality in order for us to get anywhere near where we all want the club to be. I feel that transfers and signings can go a long way to boosting the moral of other squad members (and therefore performances hopefully) and unfortunitely I fear the likes of Adam Bogdan won't quite inspire!

The squad is missing leaders and experience at the top level, goalkeepers tend to have great leadership qualities, so why not spend a bit on a solid, experienced keeper in order to add something to the squad. Even if they are going to be a no.2.

There's plenty of older goalkeepers out there that would have a lot to offer in the dressing room, as well as the pitch.

To be fair to the boy, he is better than Jones.
But, frankly, who isn't?

Hardly an exciting but of business but these days looking more and more like the norm

You think that there is a chance that's how the transfers talks go?

Well who's better than Jones?

F**k... Everyone... The Binman, the Barman.. F***ing even that lad who comes in and sorts the toilets out.. You know him.. Dan.. BogDan..

BogDan? Ill look into it

Let's hope people stop cleaning up around Melwood then we might chuck a bid in for Messi...

I don't actually have much of an issue on this since it's a free transfer. We do need a solid back up goal keeper but I'd be mad as hell if we where spending money on one before a striker but given he's on a free, we're not eating in to any budget and since he's coming from a Championship side, I'd expect his wages to be comparatively low. This seems like a no-brainer to me.

All I remember of him was a shocker against Chelsea I think a couple of years ago.  The problem is I suppose any keeper who is actually any good does not really want to be a number 2.

You know him.. Dan..

... Dan... the lavatory man. He's the leader of the sh*t-house band. 

As good as a done deal according to ESPN.

Fantastic.

Fantastic.

So 3 free transfers and possibly exploring a cheap release clause (Trippier, £3.5M)?
Liverpool FC are looking like me on Football Manager!

I hope you win the league mate.

Just a waste of wages . Mignolet wont have anything to worry about. What will now happen to Danny Ward will he have to settle in being 3rd choice or go on 2 loans a season until his contract expires . Disappointed with this transfer like .

I hope you win the league mate.

Oh I have done that will all sorts of clubs! Liverpool of course, but also Accrington Stanley, Crewe Alexandra and Bournemouth. My CV is glorious! The free transfers are only the start for me though.

Don't understand this one.... I can't imagine he is any better than Jones, and if that's the case we should have just kept him.... Baffling!!

I don't get it either, except he's 6 years younger I think. That's all I can think of.

Never mind a number 2 keeper, our current number one should really be back up.
Great shot stopper, but not so great in other areas.

I'd be interested to know how many people writing him off as a sh*te signing have watched him play at all? By all accounts he's rated highly at Bolton, and was voted their player of the season the year they were relegated.

I think it's a good signing. Massive, massive improvement on Brad Jones. Someone who can actually challenge Mignolet and keep him on his toes.

I've probably only seen him play once or twice and I honestly don't recall anything about him. All I know is that he only played 10 games this season for a championship level side. Maybe he was injured, which could explain that. However, if he was healthy and still only managed to be the backup GK at Bolton then I don't see how he could be a massive upgrade on Jones....

He's actually not a bad keeper he's way way better than Brad Jones.

I think some were hoping we would be signing a new number 1 which was never going to happen.

Looks like we'll be announcing this lad as out third freebie signing very soon.

What a joke this club is becoming. Boltons number 2 is no better than Jones. We should have been looking at someone to challenge Migs position, seeing as apart from his shot stopping capabilities, he is a poor keeper.

I'll say it once again. This club is showing no ambition.

Both pretty valid points baz.

What about this tho': we sign a 'keeper who's way, way better than Migs then... Migs, who's way, way better than Brad, can replace him. Although, as it's more about money and investor profit than ability or team success, you are right; it was never going to happen.

Sadly the twisted notion that a team can become better by improving on squad players, rather than first team starters, seems to hold sway with the powers that be. Fingers crossed that changes soon; eh?

Free again! I suppose Brendan's job is to turn him into a £2m player next season and then he'll be offloaded to a championship or lower club. Buy at £0 and sell for £2m return. Good trade Mikey Gordie.

Anything is an upgrade on Jones but we should be making our number 1 a priority, not our number 2.

Mignolet will cost us more points/games than he will win us.

Been with us since 2007 and, after becoming blossoming into our biggest asset, he goes for feck all in 2015.

He's good, there's no doubt about it, but from their performances very little separates them. Bogdan has pulled off some truly impressive saves and had some great games, but so has Lonergan and so has Amos in his brief loan. Bogdan's distribution, communication with defenders, cross collection is average at best in my opinion. He appears to be moving to Liverpool with the reputation of being a pretty good 'keeper, which is fair enough and well earnt

I like Boggers, and think he's enough better than Lonners to justify us doing a lot to try to keep him.

If we learned anything ladt season it is that whilst Bogdans a bloody good number 1

Bogdan I'll miss as he's a good goalkeeper and shotstopper, but I don't think we'll miss him loads if we get someone like Amos in or Lonergan back. He's a good 'keeper and saleable asset, but far from the sort of calibre we should be bending over backwards to keep on high Championship wages. I'm more annoyed that he's gone for free than actually losing a player of his ability.

Taken from Bolton forums!

So we're signing an average keeper

Never thought for one second we would be getting a keeper to replace Migs...Bogdan is Brad Jones but 6 years younger and perhaps a little upside left...he has more experience starting then Jones...so not too fussed one way or another.

We best worry about signing strikers than goalkeepers.

Sky Sports saying this is a done deal.

Its official yes the official LFC website confirmed
 Bogdan will be  a LIVERPOOL player from 1st.july on a free
