Also not sure why LFC aren't in for Caicedo, yes it's a lot of money but Liverpool got big money for JH/FAB." Plenty of Liverpool supporters appeared to agree with him, as the tweet garnered just shy of 18,000 likes and more than 2,500 retweets within an hour of posting. One fan wasn't aligned, though, replying: "Is it? Not sure it's Liverpool leaking that. It was Southampton that Liverpool p***ed off over Virgil van Dijk, so imagining not getting many favours. Agree on Caicedo - real talent at such a young age." Have your say! Should Liverpool walk away from trying to sign Romeo Lavia? Give us your verdict in the comments section.

Jamie Carragher has labelled Liverpool’s pursuit of Romeo Lavia “embarrassing” after their third transfer bid was rejected by Southampton.
The Reds legend has also suggested that his former club are going after the wrong midfielder, as they search to replace recently-departed duo Fabinho and Jordan Henderson. Lavia, 19, has emerged as manager Jurgen Klopp’s priority target in the final month of the transfer window but Southampton are holding firm at their £50million asking price.
Liverpool’s latest bid is understood to have only been worth £45m inclusive of add-ons. Claims that the Saints had rejected the offer on Monday prompted an irked Carragher to jump on Twitter and launch a stinging attack on Liverpool’s operation, noting their apparent lack of serious interest in Brighton star Moises Caicedo, who’s been heavily linked with a move to Chelsea.
“This is embarrassing,” the ex-Reds centre-back declared. ” Liverpool for years now have got deals done quickly with no fuss. If you don’t think he’s worth 50M move on, if you really want him pay it.
