Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony wants Liverpool to bid for Ronnie Edwards.

MacAnthony is a big Liverpool fan and is keen to see Edwards move to Anfield.

"I'm amazed," said MacAnthony to theposh.com. “We all are. It's not we are being greedy or silly. I think sometimes it's that we are a League One club or whatever. I know we like to go OTT, but he (Edwards) is as good as we have ever seen in that position for us. If he's with us, he's with us - even better.

“But I don't think he will be and I think a lot of Prem clubs are big clubs, when they buy that young player, they do their business first and then they come in for the young player.

“But what a talent. We are all just sat there at the Leicester game going 'wow' (Peterborough beat Leicester 2-1 in midweek). If I went to a pre-season game and saw a player like him playing for another club, me and Barry (Fry) would do a deal at half-time and have him in the boot of our car! That's how good he was against Leicester, I don't think he misplaced a pass, missed a tackle. This is against the first team of Leicester, who are a Premier League squad by the way, yes they are in the Champ (Championship) but phenomenal.

“That winds me up by the way, that Liverpool haven't bought him yet because he's just made for some of the teams in the Prem."
