The more I see of Raheem Sterling, the more I think Redmond is better. I just hope Rodgers doesn't think the same when Sterling moves on in the next few weeks :emoticon-0107-sweat

Granted he is overrated but Redmond is nowhere near as good as Sterling.

Brady is starting at LB today for RoI, will be interesting to see how he gets on.

Perhaps Neil is approaching the left side of the squad differently to you're suggesting Rick. Someone who can cover LB and LM makes sense in our formation, we've been a lot more compact down the left compared to the right, and perhaps Brady could play on the left in a similar fashion to Johnson.

With effectively two LB options, Toffolo, Miquel or both could probably go out on loan, and we could then look to sign a pure centre back, rather than wanting someone to cover full back too.

I did say that Brady's ability to play at LM or LB would be a good advantage, DH. I'm just not keen to have another player like Garrido taking up a space but hardly ever playing. Cuellar, in his day, was an excellent CB who could also play at RB. Similarly, Ryan Bennett can play at RB when needed. I think the same option on the left would be an advantage as long as it isn't to the detriment of CB quality. AN likes players who can cover more than one position, so I don't think that's necessarily unlikely. Miquel can play at LB as well, but I'm not sure whether he has the quality and experience to provide cover in the PL and the same is probably true of Toffolo. It's all guesswork on our part at this stage.
 
I'd be chuffed with McArthur. Can't see us going after another central midfielder though, and can't see Palace getting rid either.

Isn't Brady a LM who can also play at LB, DH? Regardless of that £15m is still ridiculous.

He played quite a few games in a wing-back type role I think.

I didn't watch it, but people are saying he looked very solid in defence for Ireland against England yesterday.
