Definitely - and he’s finally addressing our midfield!! I’ve been waiting for years for this to happen - Fabinho Keita Fekir!’ Complete transformation!! We will compete with anytime!

Klopp is the best thing to happen to this club in a long time.

Lot of optimism going into the new season.

calm down jimmy.

On paper it sounds great (i quite like them 3 players) but if Klopp is planning on using all 3:

1. all 3 need to get used to the english game
2. all 3 need to learn to play with each other
3. all 3 need to be intergrated into klopps tactics.

Of course it's exciting times especially when you get new players, but i wouldn't dub it a complete transformation yet until you have seen how they play and adapt to the league <laugh>

4. All three probably need to learn English

well i know him and bakayoko were bossing the french league.

Having seen bakayoko, either the french league is **** and anyone can look good there or fabinho was the better half. <laugh>
Sometimes players take a while to transition from one league to another, no matter how good they are. Here's to Fabinho being better than Bakoyoko <bubbly>

Taking out factors like relationship ms, language barriers etc, and focusing purely on football ability, we are massively upgrading 2 positions with a potential third on the way.

Keita will walk into our team. Alongside Chamberlain and Henderson imo.
Fabinho will be in and out until settled

Monaco fans might say the same if they signed Henderson.

I think we'll have to wait and see on this Fabinho fella tbh.

I actually think fekir will be playing on the wings and used in rotation. I will be surprised if klopp has him regularly as part of the central 3. That or he goes to 4 2 3 1

If Fekir signs, here's how LFC's incumbent midfield (Hendo, Milner, Gini, Ox, Can) stacks up against the incoming (Fekir, Fabinho, Keita)

Tackles/90: 2.22 ---> 2.63
Key passes/90: 1.2 ---> 1.6
Dribbles/90: 1.22 ---> 2.7
Goal contributions/90: 0.14 ---> 0.54

(Averages)

Fabinho is the Kante while Bakoyoko is the drinkwater <whistle>

I'm quite optimistic that he'll fit in rather well, given that Monaco's style is very Kloppian. They're all out attack but organised in defence, with everybody playing their part. They can often keep attacking when they could sit back, something we could've done instead of letting teams get back into games.

In a two, he's experienced at either going forward or covering when the other advances, something Gerrard and Lampard showed with England is not as easy as it looks. He's adaptable and as Klopp says, can play as a 2, 6 or 8, which will help with squad depth.

So they're money ball signings then
