Hello Ed02
If you are around, checked the sharkoppd and your latest input. I want to ask if the club are looking at any full backs lately?
There were not much on that front in your sharkopod. We definitely need full backs in the summer imo.
I know Fabinho could play there but we simply cannot move him from the midfield or our midfield would collapse. Do not rate Milner at full back which means we don’t have anyone bar TAA and Robbo.
Thanks for your input.

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of any declared interest in full backs but Ed001 has suggested that TAA will move to midfield and that would require a RB to be added - I doubt Clyne is in the picture as a starter. Adam Lewis is certainly well thought of and should provide LB cover. Gomez will also be able to provide cover if required.}

Thanks for the input Ed02. I guess we would still need a dedicated RB. Gomez should be plying at CB and while Lewis is well thought at LB. The kid has not played any competitive game for us. We lack a dedicated RB apart from TAA. With Clyne off in the summer we don’t have any.

Wan-B. or can Chilwell play on the right also?

I can't really work out entirely how to phrase he question, but purely for example, if the club wanted Wan Bissaka but knew he wasnt available this summer and knew they needed a right back would they typically wait til he was available and hope kids work out in the meantime or just sign a replacement instead? I know hypotheticals are difficult, but it must be a typical problem for clubs to deal with.

We waited for van dike before klopp seems to dig his heels in sometimes.

Harry doesn’t rate them therefore we don’t have anyone me to play in that position lol. Sound logic.

One of the things i like about Klopp is he identifies which players will suit what he needs and then if he can't get them won't waste money on someone else who isn't suitable. Rodgers at times seemed like a kid with money burning a hole in his pocket. Which isn't to say Im a fan of the way klopp has gone about trying to get some of his targets - he certainly isn't perfect.

I personally don’t see any need to move Trent into midfield when he’s clearly a fantastic RB, and it’s such a crucial position with limited alternatives out there. We have an overload of midfielders.

I’d be very happy to have Trent and Robbo play as our main fullbacks next season with Milner, Adam Lewis as cover and Fabinho/ Gomez also capable of playing there in the event that’s really necessary.

In terms of investment I’d go for one top forward over everything else - we need a challenger to our front three and as much as I like him, I’m just not sure Origi is it. Sturridge definitely isn’t.

Fantastic going forward sg but suspect defensively hence why klopp drops him for the big games, usually for gomez with lovren coming in at cb. The lads played cm throughout his youth and was our best u23 player when i was watching down prenton park a few years ago.

If you think his deliveries are good from wide wait until you see him pinging balls from cm, excellent short passing and through balls too, plus he has a good long shot, something we have been crying out for from midfield.

I know i say this a lot but i really want to see what him and wilson can do at cm next season because in the u23s they were unplayable except against utds youth whoo also had some amazing talents, rashford being one, wilson was more of a winger/ striker back then but has been playing deeper under lampard. Kent was also excellent back then and is doing well at rangers.

Id rather us by wan bissaka than another cm as we can develop two of our brightest prospects and trent can still cover rb if needed.

Good points, but I’m not sure he’s suspect defensively by nature Lerchy, I reckons it’s more his inexperience IMO and he’s getting better all the time.

I think in time he’ll be an excellent CM but not next season, we have Fab, Gini, Keita and others there which would crimp his game time. I see him moving there as a natural successor to Hendo/ Gini when that role as box to box player becomes a requirement to be filled.

There’s plenty of time for the lad yet, and I would like to see him swinging those crosses in from the right for another season or two at least!

I watched quite a few of those games on LFCTV and agree with your assessments, although Kent’s end product has always concerned me. he creates chances but Wilson is the clinical one.

Fair points there sg, I can't argue with that. Im sure klopp has a plan.

Got to agree with SG, Trent is good for another couple of seasons at RB, he is improving all the time, I can see him being really highly rated, he has so much potential .
