Liverpool are flying at the minute but big changes are still planned for this summer. Liverpool will be hoping to recover at least £23m of the £32.5m they slent last summer on Christian Benteke, others will also be leaving with Joe Allen, Martin Skrtel, Adam Bogdan, Mario Balotelli, Jose Enrique, Tiago Ilori, J. Texiera and Luis Alberto all look certain to leave while Alberto Moreno and Lazar Markovic will be playing for there future. Liverpool are planning big summer moves for Leroy Sane and Granit Xhaka while they are considering a number of big targets to provide competition for Simom Mignolet, Ter-Stegen, Butland, Horn and Leno are all on the short list. Jonas Hector and Ben Chilwell have both been scouted for the left back position . Chilwell has interest from a number of clubs but Liverpool are confident of a deal, the 18 year old is out of contract with Leicester this summer. Jonas Hector will only join in Alberto Moreno is sold. Joel Matip and Marko Grujic have already signed and next year hopefully we will see Klopps stamp on the squad.

Few typos, two certain transfers this summer are Berahino to Spurs and Gundongan to Manchester City.

I expect a box-to-box MF and a winger to be brought, but it won't be Sane or Xhaka.

I don't think either Sane or Xhaka will end up here. Sane is going to be far too expensive for what he offers and I'm not sure Xhaka has the attitude to excel under Klopp. Plus, Xhaka has also said he prefers to play for City, over other EPL teams. Klopp seems to always have had the attitude if you prefer elsewhere or "CL is required", then go somewhere else. If you don't want to come here and be a part of a team that achieves such things-- CL and more-- go play somewhere else.

If gundongan is off to city I wouldn't imagine that xhaka will be as well.

Long way off summer but hopefully only one or two quality signings.

Whilst I don't disagree with the list of players who look likely to leave, the rest of the post I won't take too much notice of until it happens. The one thing that puzzles me though is where you get this figure of £23m for benteke. where have you got this figure from?

Piotr Zielinski perhaps a more viable option than Granit Xhaka, and I can't see Leroy Sane at Liverpool with all the sides interested in him. Ter Stegen likewise will likely be too expensive, and perhaps Horn or Karius are likelier to push Mignolet.

I agree with the outs, plus Balotelli.

Sane will be at Barcelona or Real, and Xhaka is off to Man City. I really do not see the need for another CM with Grujic coming in, and Chirivella and Stewart also pushing for squad places. Horn or karius would be better options since they are as good as and will cost half of Ter Stegen who is probably City bound too. I would be happy with Hector at LB, defensively solid and reliable.

Zielinski isn't at all the same type of midfielder as Xhaka, Xhaka is the sort who is good on the ball and fierce in the tackle, the kind we haven't had since McMahon. Rather we went for Xhaka all day long.

Seriously with xhaka in, how many DM we already have? Lucas, hendo, milner, gruljic, chivirella, xhaka.

{Ed001's Note - Milner?? On what planet is he a DM?}

Zei links is an AM who can play wide with pace, power and skill as well as goals which is exactly what we need. Chaka is a very good player but no need for him if som mids don't leave.

Helloo ed001 he was playing at cm before klopp came in and switch him to flanks. He is definitely not am.

{Ed001's Note - playing in central midfield does not make him a defensive midfielder and Milner is not in any way a defensive midfielder.}

Milner hasn't the nous to play centre midfield. End of.

For us to be successful we need a solid spine, Xhaka would help in that respect as he's mobile, quick, aggressive, good tackler, good reader of the game and has a good range of passing.

My problem with Zeilinski is that he's a number 10 type. Which we have loads of already.

At the moment Lucas is our only recognized CDM. Milner is a winger and is poor when played centrally, Hendo is box to box, Grujic is predominantly a CM and Chiravella isn't ready yet but may be eased into the role in cup games. If we have serious top four ambitions then Lucas isn't good enough on a regular basis to be the main man. Can is also a CM. Xhaka is a huge step up on Lucas in my opinion and adds something we have so evidently lacked, a bit of steel and bite.

We defo need a top class CM. but very unlikely it would be Xhaka. I am skeptical on £23 mill coming in for Benteke.

Lucas isn't our only DM, Stewart is one as well.
