On a recent Transfer Show podcast, Dave Davis and Trev Downey returned from holidays to an explosive Liverpool transfer window. Podcast listeners were greeted with vivid imagery as Trev described: “We come back with a bang. Mr Davis, it is Dave Davis. I am Trev Downey.” The tone set expectations for big developments around Liverpool, Harvey Elliott, West Ham, Tyler Morton.
Dave revelled in the significance of the window, saying: “We’ve had five players or whatever … there’s still things happening big time.” He went on: “We are going out there like Louis Theroux says, walking around with our willies out and absolutely just showing the world what it is to be champions and to strengthen from a position of strength.” That quote underlines Liverpool’s bold intent from this podcast discussion.
Turning to senior squad youth, Dave addressed recent links: “Last Liverpool‑related story has got to do with Harvey Elliot and Tyler Morton.” He stated: “Both of whom were linked with moves to West Ham and those moves were obviously supposed to be transfers, not loans.” Dave added: “It seems as if West Ham have either gotten cold feet or starting to muck about a bit.” On Elliot he said: “If West Ham are going to prick around and start talking about loaning Harvey Elliott, then he needs to look elsewhere.” Trev echoed: “He says he loves everything about the club. He wants to stay here but he has to think about his career.”
Regarding Morton: “Graeme Potter has already spoken to Tyler Morton as well … he loves him and they Liverpool were expecting a bid for that.” He summarised: “They’d shown that real keenness … now they’re talking about a loan with an option. Liverpool are not too impressed with West Ham.” It’s clear Liverpool expect more than hesitation around transfers.
