Defensive reinforcements

[Zlate]

"When you build up a team, you start with the defence - that's how it is," said Klopp. "It keeps you in the game and gives you the opportunity to score once and win the game. I'm never happy with conceding goals, to be honest.

"It's clear it's how we build up a team and that's one of the biggest targets for the next season - not for the rest of this season but for next season and then to build up a stability in this part of the game."

Our defence is pretty ordinary and average bar Clyne and a improved Lovern, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that. We know Klopp has already started the rebuild here with Matip, he'll need another with Sakho's impending ban. Looks like we'll get another GK and LB according to reports.

Can't wait for the summer and next season, we're definitely progressing nicely and in the right direction.

It would maybe be a worth a punt to try and hijack Hummels' move to Bayern.

Hummels has set his mind on leaving Dortmund who are reluctant to sell to Bayern.

We need a big spine in the team. Can might be part of that, but we need a dominating keeper and centreback, it also seems as though we're on the look out for a left back. Klopp is right, we need to build from the back, but the rest of the side isn't that bad. Toure and Skrtel is down to timing really, they're both past their best, Lovren has looked a better player this season though. Moreno has come on and is useful when you want an aggressive, attacking fullback, but we need a more defensive option there aswell. A wing forward of REAL quality is a must too. We're not that far off.

If Ings comes back to full fitness, Origi continues his development and Sturridge stays injury free. It could be a good idea to spend most of our money earmarked for attacking options on one high quality wing forward who can score goals.
Lots of if's and but's but going forward with Origi, Firmino, Sturridge and Ings could be enough striker options.
