Edit: Mystic stealing my thunder. Sigh.
I’m not arsed about that. I just want someone else to be stung for his sick pay.
Oh, shit. Send the Alpha team.
I love it when a plan comes together.
Same can be said of Alexis Mac Allister He as hardly set the premier League alight has he
If he stays around with the seniors then hopefully the door will be open for him to get a reasonable number of minutes next season and not just left on the bench to rot.
No sign of a RB coming in so if Trent is injured at any point then ideally we revert back to a flat back 4 and this kid comes in.
Want to see him get rack up 700-800 minutes at least.
Maybe so but he’s not got it.
Well know for sure next summer.
Ideally, but Gomez is our 2nd choice RB, I think.
Gomez is wank.
This is the problem we have, hanging onto useless players for too long they end up taking the minutes that should be distributed to these kids waiting in line.
Tell me something I don't know.
Well yes… he kind of has.
The 10 goals he scored from midfield last season, building on the 5 from the year before, kind of gives it away.
This is pretty much it.
We're infatuated with this one player, who we obviously can't get.
We will inexplicably do nothing in the hope that a year down the line, things will change. It won't happen.
The CB injury crisis is so predictable that it's pure negligence not to do anything about it in this window. But hey, that's how we roll.
That’s on top of him being one of Argentina’s most important payers. I can’t think what they’ve achieved recently. Even outside of the premier league he has a high standing in the game.
To be fair… DonnerVan was one of those shouting the loudest for us to sign he who’d cause an Exon Valdez type disaster if he went for a swim in the sea.
Add Lavia to the list.
change the Thiago tick to a medical icon
Pressing like is doing this post an injustice.
the Arthur Melo of cb’s probably Jerome Boateng or someone like that
I think he's even slower than me- can we try see if Carra's up for a few starts this year? Maybe Sami?
No they’re not broken enough
It's still pre-season and there's a long way to go, but it's frustrating again that we've lost so many players and are taking time to add new additions and bed them in. We always drag our feet in these sort of situations and then struggle to bed players in ready for the beginning of the season. Klopp says in his Hendo interview that they've known about this for a long time and have had time to prepare for the situation. Not sure if that's an honest, reassuring assessment, or a dig at those above, but whatever, we need to see things starting to come together.
We've arguably replaced these players who've gone - Firmino/Gapko, Nunez/Mane, Szobo and Mac for Ox/Milner/Keita. We haven't bought for the backline though, despite it having holes in it for the best part of three years now and we have to replace Henderson and/or Fabinho. Ok, so we have Badger, Jones and Elliott coming through, but still. The squad looks thin again in comparison to United, City, Arsenal and Chelsea. We're going to need a lot of luck with injuries, which recent years suggest won't happen.

I'd bet the bank it's Option B. It's not the first time he's said such things. 99% of the time he's totally loyal in his public statements but the occasional sign of frustration does leak through now and then.
No doubt. Klopp doesnt go full Rafa or Conte or Mourinho. He also understands that we need to live within our means. But even within those parameters, we play it way too safe sometimes and I sure he is frustrated.
