    So pecking order of that bunch...

    Coutinho
    Firmino
    Mane
    Lallana
    Ojo

    Even if he's in there at 4 he wouldn't start all the time. Is Klopp looking to change the formation?

    I would expect he'd jump the pecking order a bit. 4th maybe but then again I dunno. Klopp might not agree with that pecking order.

    I kind of expect

    1. firmino. due to work rate
    2. Mane. cos he signed him.
    3. coutinho? I just feel as though the lads going missing a lot
    4. lallana.
    5. any kid going. Ojo, kent, brannagan.. etc etc

    Over all I would be questioning if he arrives and plays attacking it has to signal bye bye allen but could signal lallana drops down too.

    I think he'll be looking at turning him into a proper CM personally, I don't see the point of buying a number 10.

    Klopp's not daft and he can get the best out of players, he has the attributes to be CM - he just needs tweaking.

    he's not that tall though... sigh....

    I think:

    Karius
    Clyne Lovern Matip X
    Can Wijnaldum
    Mane Firmino Coutinho
    sturridge/origi
    Looks maybe ok.

    I think a 433 prob looks pretty strong too if its a single pivot and 2 box to box. plus that gives scope for grujic to come on at times

    Karius
    Clyne Lovern Matip X
    Henderson Can Wijnaldum
    Mane sturridge Coutinho
    I suggest this as I felt v top 4 we needed more midfield control than we got with firmino and i felt he vanished in games where he was under pressure.

    I can't quite bring myself yet to say no coutinho but i still have that sneaking suspicion.

    Is either team top 4? hmmmmm don't think so.

    I think you have to add Klopp's approach into the equation too; he doesn't spend big unless it's a necessity

    Greedy. If he can add 10 assists and goals a season then be a cracking player

    Mag fan in peace. When Gini can be arsed he can look very good but he goes missing for huge parts of the game, even ones he has done well in he is missing at times, like a willo the wisp. After Christmas for us he was just **** in virtually every game, like he couldnt be arsed, although i think any player in a McClown team probably feels like that after one of his famous dressing room pep talks. He was marginally better after Rafa arrived, but not by much. Good luck with him if you do sign him. Most of us see this as another Carrol situation for us, a win win scenarion. Thanks in advance<cracker><cheers><cheers>

    Not learning to spell him name unless he actually joins. Plus Bobby called him Winja Ninja throughout last year's FF
