    He'll be 30 in May (didn't realise he was that old tbh). Our new Milner?

    Andre for Thiago would be the play for January but he's still not the physical / ball winner we need.

    I really don't see this as being the one either.

    Gravenberch and szoboszlai are an extremely attacking and technically gifted pair of 8s. Perfect left and right sided, big, strong, fast, run all day, can shoot, pass, dribble. amazing.

    MacAllister then sits as this odd position now where he actually should be in the left side 8 position but is playing 6.

    It really reminds me of pre fabinho where theres no natural sitter.

    it’s clear that we need a specialist (still). We also need cover for Trent (still) and a CB (still).

    however, given Salah’s form so far this season, finding a replacement for him is possibly the most pressing issue.

    reality is that we are only half way through this rebuild, although I do need to add that so far, it’s going quite well.

    still is very harsh

    we need a cb next summer (matip out)

    quansah has to be respected as a massive development.

    trent is a problem sure.

    I will not go against it if Matip is given one year extension. He still have some energy in him. He especially played very well against Tottenham very unlucky to score OG.

    I wasn’t being overly critical, it’s just that we knew we needed to fill these positions in the summer and understandably couldn’t due to other priorities. Surely the club has just learnt that you have your replacements on board early whenever possible. Agree on quansah’s potential but early days there.

    Never going to have a perfect team so every summer there will be areas for improvement.

    I think that is ridiculous.

    7 year deal? to a 26 year old?

    he might as well start retiring now cos he's on the gravy now.

    I mean I was never sold on this idea klopp was all over him as any sort of a buy never mind for salah but he's clearly not no offers as he ran his deal down.

    rice was offered similar.

    now if the wheels come off his career he won't mind at all, amazing.

    I think yeah on July 1 we'd all say you those are positions to address but as the preseason goes on and deals get done etc things emerge for klopp and we need to adjust our thinking as we catch up.

    right now looking forward neither ramsay nor Bradley have managed to show anything to us to suggest they are taking trent on. so rb cover is a fair issue.

    but right now we've 5 half decent cbs so cb won't be an issue for me until next summer when we look at vvd and matip. one is going and the other is aging. that's the right time imo.

    for me we are now we served at lcm and rcm but 6 is still a balance issue.

    rw is still an issue for me. doak if anything needs to be moved to lw long term.

    it'll be a hard sell to prioritise any one of these over the other bit I feel cb amd no 6 are still the areas.

    Get a DM and another CB/LB in January, and I really do think we'd be up there. A proper DM should be the highest priority

    Has been enslaved like Rice. West Ham will now demand £M100 plus from any suitor.

    I sincerely doubt he has any suitors

    But I don't really think slavery is the right term for what is like hitting the powerball

    Liverpool are in talks over the January signing of Bayer Leverkusen star Piero Hincapie, the player's agent has claimed.
