Always liked him and think he can step up and do a job. If Tottenham had any money I'm sure they would be over this
Think he’d get in above most at the moment. fabinho is prob first on team sheet atm, other than that miner Gini Hendo all do sinilar job and Keita is our only ball carrier and hasn’t veen in good form. Doucoure can go forward and back and would offer more than Gini and Hendo in an attacking and defensive side
I meant at Spurs rather than us (should have said that really) following Jaffa's comment. He's get in our midfield but then, so would a one legged blind monkey!
Liverpool's Belgium striker Divock Origi, 23, is among the players Tottenham are considering with England striker Harry Kane, 25, out injured. (Telegraph)
Doucoure would be decent but at the top end of the spectrum, I would like Ndombele at Lyon. This kid has everything.
We need additions this January. If we're not there already, we are one injury away from a major dysfunction. Who replaces mane, Salah and Bobby? Keita is a shadow of what we thought we were getting atm and Shaq is better deployed (in our system) behind the front 3. Sturridge - just no. Lallana is broken. Of our midfield, Milner will be required as RB, Hendo is Hendo, Fab and Keita are our only fit midfielders (wijni is injured) before we deploy jones and Camacho. In defence, we have a fit Ribbo and VvD - that's it's. Hopefully Matip returns but he's fragile. After this, we have Moreno. That's it. We can't pull Fab into the back line as there's nobody good enough to sit in midfield. So there you have it lads. Top of the league but we need a large slice of luck to avoid any other injuries or we will struggle. A couple of signings, loan or otherwise could alleviate the pressure a little. Appreciate that's not easy but neither is winning the title.
I would like to sign a defender who can play CB or RB, with the aim of replacing either Matip or Lovren in the squad in the long run. Benjamin Pavard would be a great shout but he could be going to Bayern.
He's decent going forward and certainly seems to be improving that part of his game, he looks a superb prospect and I'd certainly welcome him as a signing but he does have a lot to learn still.
Liverpool are interested in 20-year old Brazilian defender Eder Militao from FC Porto, who can play a number of positions in the back like right-back, center-back and even as a defensive midfielder. [@UOL]
True - he’s a young lad but you know the old saying: If you’re good enough, then you have the opportunity to stake a claim in the first team whilst still continuing to develop. And you’re old enough.
