      We want "upwards of £15m" :lmao:

      When dealing with those clubs I suspect it will be "we'll loan him and you pay 95% of his wages as usual, ok?"

      Bit difficult in demanding high transfer fee's top when the lad has had his butt parked on the bench all season & see his place taken by a converted midfielder, who one must say has done a very decent job.

      It's about time we got some money back from all the times Italian clubs have fu**ed us over.

      I'm not sure why Italian clubs - renowned for their solid defending - would want a guy that can't defend :D.

      We might throw in his segway then we could push it close to £5m - £6m, we're not getting anywhere near £15m for him. As you say sitting all season on the bench has done his value no good, neither have his few performances and then when he could have been used recently we preferred to switch Clyne and bring in TAA.

      Whoever is bidding for him have all the cards, we know it and so will they. The only thing that has to be questioned is why are they bidding in the first place? :D

      Thought he could have been a decent player for us, knew there'd be WTF moments when he arrived but knew he was converting from a winger so hoped they'd be ironed out. Unfortunately we then got to know Alby's mentality and I think 'learning' could well be listed as one of his weaknesses on whoscored.com. It's a long list, I haven't had a chance to read them all.

      I would have actually preferred Moreno on the wing to be honest, that way we never would have to worry about his lapse in defending ;D

      He is a player with a profile and skill set that will attract bidders.

      I think people will be surprised by how much money we get for our outcasts this year. The likes of Moreno, Markovic, Sakho could well give us a good base for a rebuild.

      Add that to the likely sale of the valuable Sturridge and the exit of big earner Lucas there can be no excuse for Fenway not to go big - and that is just off the back of players who's time the club have deemed is up.

      It's not the price, it's the people who made the enquiries. It's always loan deals with Italian clubs.

      Remember that goal he scored against Tottenham and we all thought we had a new John Arne Riise? Yeah...that was a long time ago.

      That Klopp decided to convert a midfielder to his place says it all. But that he can't even be trusted to do the left back role even when Klopp moved Milner into the middle on Saturday is embarrassing. I swear Klopp would rather play Mignolet or Karius there before Moreno again.

      I dunno about surprised mate; people shouldn't be. Last summer Jürgen got more in sales than Brendan got for Suarez. This year will probably be no different.

      Add those sales to the stockpiled millions in TV money, revenue streams and unspent btransfer budgets alone and you could realistically be looking at 100s of millions. Because...

      We were told that they'd reinvest any profits to player recruitment; right? 🤔

      Take whatever is offered, let me know his address and I'll drive up from London to drop him off at the airport myself.

      To think TPM wanted to buy Ryan Bertrand instead of Moreno for 5 million quid cheaper but was overruled by the transfer committee (and derided by many who were "right behind him" on here). It was a crime of an error when you look at it.

      Klopp has made it pretty clear that he has no future here, so it's best for all parties to move on.  I personally think he'll end up back in Spain -- somewhere like Bilbao, Sevilla, Valencia, or Villarreal -- and I think he'll go onto have a decent career. 

      Many of our supporters can't wait to see the back of him, but one thing I think deserves pointing out -- despite being sat on the bench for most of the season, he hasn't caused any problems or had any behavioral issues.  He just goes about his business and doesn't cause a scene.  He also seems to be well liked by his teammates and always has a smile on his face in the training pics.  So, while he may not be up to LFC standards, he at least deserves some credit for the professionalism he has shown to do his job and not cause a fuss when things don't go his way.  Many other players could learn something from Berto in that regard. 

      Best of luck Berto!!

      Bottom line he is sh*te, but hopefully someone will be daft enough to offer us a decent wedge for him, if not just F**k him off on loan and pray he has a half decent season.

      Three appearances, three to four years ago, think it's safe to say that doesn't really count as an international career!

      If we can get 15 for Ibe, we can get 12 for Moreno (that's when we paid, right). Ideally a bit more to cover inflation.

      Still young, buckets of pace & energy, has the odd goal in him, needs a tweak defensively, but that'll come ... how'd that sound ;)

      'Can't defend' ... a description for internal consumption only.

      I'm not suggesting he's a world beater, but Spain have had the best talent pool in the world over the last 10 years.  To even get a single cap for the senior side is impressive.

      Liverpool reject £11 million bid from Napoli for Alberto Moreno

      Lverpool have rejected an £11 million bid from Napoli for left-back Alberto Moreno.

      The Spanish defender was a rare starter last season, but the Merseyside club has put a £15 million price tag on the 24-year-old and is awaiting bigger offers.

      There has been plenty of interest in the full-back, with both Milan clubs exploring the possibility of a deal.....

      Must admit I thought he'd do well for us when we signed him. Said at the time you'd see a few "WTF" moments but with him converting from a winger I believed we'd see progress in his defensive game but that just didn't progress nearly well enough.

      One of those players that seems to have all the raw ingredients to make it he just can't apply himself with nearly enough discipline or restraint.

      Afraid even with all the natural abilities it's still what goes on upstairs that seems to matter most and Alberto, while a funny guy, is just missing a hamster for that wheel of his.

      £15m would be a great price. Wish him all the very best wherever he goes.

      Interesting ploy, take their £11m, give them Moreno and then give them their £11m back for Ghoulam.

      Does make it look like we've given them more than Moreno as a straight swap for Ghoulam, could work :D

      He could work in a system that implements proper wing backs.

      Seems a great lad but my god is he sh*te. And hopefully his departure means a proper fullback comes in.

      My enduring memory of Alberto will always be his complicity in us conceding the equaliser to Sevilla just second after the second half started. Told me everything we needed to know about him as a player. Quite often sh*t players can put aside their shittiness in big finals. He didn't. In fact he magnified his shittiness in that final.

      This transfer market is a sellers market as we have seen with some of the ridiculously outrageous asking prices for marginal players so far. I would hold for 15 mil. I really do think we will get it if we wait long enough. Moreno is a decent talent who just doesn't fit into Klopps scheme. The thing that always frustrated me about him is he can often play some stupid football. The West Brom game a few months back summed up Alberto for me. The dude comes in with 4 to go in a 1-0 game and screws up a 3 on 1 attack by shooting in a keeper-less goal from damn near midfield. I almost lost my mind  :-\

      Yea, think that was the game (Sevilla) that finished him in many peoples minds. Though there were plenty of others...

      Swans offered 13mill?   For a guy who can't defend, seems like a good offer. Tho maybe we want a bit more if we refused Napoli bid of 11mill (if true))

      Pity, if he could just defend, and had more positional sense, he has the attacking part of the game. At 24, you'd think he'd have learned those basics though

      If he has anything about him he'll be dying to get away to a new club, try and kickstart his career. Still young, so good luck to him.

      I'm just happy we're getting decent bids for him. He needs to move on for ours as well as his own sake, and that should also increase the likelihood of us signing a proper LB.

      Dont remind me of Basel, mate. The best trip of my life turned to the worst by full time. Remember sitting there slumped in my seat with Diego at the end of the game. Havent watched a second of that game since.

      So much promise and technical skill. Just no brain to use it. Or no coach to coach it? Who knows...well we all know it's his brain really.

      One of the more disappointing signings in my lifetime.

      There was a lot of hype around us getting him, I hadn't seen much of him really but got well and truly caught up in the excitement.

      The Spurs goal was a great moment, thought we had the potential to have solved leftback for years.

      Then the slow realisation the lad is not usually that good going forward but is also can't defend and is immensely stupid.

      Really glad we saw f**k all of him last season. For all the jokes about Southampton players, we deffo been better with Bertrand.

      Did Jürgen not fancy Sigurdsson at one time ,looks like our neighbours £30 million has been knocked back so adding 2+2 , if Bertie and a few pounds were put together , could it possibly see him as an option, Ive only seen him a few times and he seems capable .

      I think his position is filled in our squad now but I agree with you. He's fantastic and wasted at Swansea. Potentially a replacement for Barkley and an upgrade, too.

      Edit: wrong thread. But meh.

      Rodgers wanted him whilst manager at Swansea and then when he moved to Liverpool still wanted Sigurdsson to move to his new club.
      Rodgers admits in the article that he wasn't prepared to offer the player anymore money than the Swansea deal .
      Small club manager  ..... small club mentality.


      Perhaps the truth will come out one day on how many good deals were fu**ed up by Rodgers small time mentality coupled with an out of depth big time ego.

      Get what yer saying Skip and I acknowledge your opinion on TPM, as for Siggy I'm of the opinion he's a big fish in a small pond and perhaps not so big to swim with our bigger fish in our ever expanding pond,
      Decent player but I think he would have found it very tough here, Question we got to ask is, is he any better than we have now? 
      Would you put him in ahead of a fully fit Hendo,  Can or Gini?
      No, not in my opinion.

      For me I don't think that anyone lowballed on that occasion just that Brendan having worked with the player before felt he knew what his value was and decided he wasn't worth any more.

      Let's just give him away then.  Sakho and Markovic too.  Not wanted = zero value. 

      Madrid are getting 60M - 80M for bench warmers.  Surely 15M isn't asking too much for one of ours....
