May need two if Quansah goes as well.

 

will need 4 if VVD and Gomez also leave

 

Can't see Virgil going a month after he signed a new contract, but Joe could go as well, tbf.

 

Agree I do think should be monitoring and jm
sure club are given vvd age, Konate contract, Gomez injury and Quansah youth.

However wouldn’t say it’s a priority signing for this summer unless we moved one on

 

Think Slot would use Grav there before we bought a new one tbph
For me it’s a monitor and set up for next summer

 

As Slot showed last (this?) season, Endo was used as a backup CB ahead of Ryan Gberg.

 

Think will be interesting to see how line up this year though. With Frimpong/bradley and Kerkez/robertson have 4 full backs who much prefer going up the line rather than coming inside to play where TAA did.

Does suggest that Grav drops into more of a back 3 like did a few times at the end of the season and may mean Mac and szobo are more fixed in a line in that midfield 3 with Wirtz either false 9 or on the wing.

Think back to Klopp early dags with Robbo and TAA flying down wing you had 3 of Hendo number fab Gini doing the dog work in midfield to allow those full backs to push high.

If in this new line up you have kerkez Frimpong high, plus szobo and a 9 on last line with 2 wingers, that’s 6 players high up with 2 cb’s grav and Mac left behind. If Mac goes as well that leaves is really exposed so intriguing how that midfield works with the new full backs.

no idea if that will work
But thought some of you might like it

 

I think we may play a diamond.

 

for a £116m i ****ing hope he is a diamond

oh wait i see what you mean

 

I can't see it mate. What is it?

 

Do you think (presuming we get Kerkez) that Slot puts the new fullbacks straight in or eases them in gradually?

 

It will depend on how pre-season goes surely?

 

Liverpool interested in Victor Osimhen of Napoli.

 

I don't think so. Pre-season is for fitness, first and foremost. Slot will get to see how the players play in his team and how fit they are etc but if won't be a deciding factor as to who starts the first league game imo.

 

I think Frimpong becomes first choice ahead of Bradley with Bradley getting sub minutes and odd rotation/cup and maybe CL games. I think Robertson stays first choice at start of season but I almost expect Robertson and Kerkez to rotate weekly with Kerkez becoming first choice as season progresses.

But I think it can even depend game by game what slot wants tactically as Kerkez is maybe picked for games expecting to dominate where want more attacking and Robertson for the tougher games where want him to sit back and defend a bit more.

 

Frimpong definite first choice as for Kerkez i'll give my opinion if / when we sign him

 

And of those four, only Conor isn't all out attack minded

 

Why?

 

tbf, he's a quality goal scorer.

Comes with an ego the size of CRonaldo's though
