The Leverkusen bid and Sterling leaving today might be the factors that push through a deal for us with Kovacic.

With extra funds from the sale hopefully means we can meet Inter's valuation now. I'm hoping he would favour us rather than Leverkusen.

Seen a comment before regarding not buying Benteke and promoting Sinclair to the first team. Thinking about it it's a fair shout. Worry for Rodger's would be if we struggled for goals in first half of season it might cost him his job. So with that in mind I'd say we will see new striker arrive.

If buyers can be found we will likely see all of Lambert, Balotelli, Borini, Enrique, and probably Allen.

With a bit of forward thinking the better idea would have been not to sign Origi in the first place and let Sinclair take that spot in the squad if he is deemed good enough.

The deal for him is still on the table and if Leverkusen agree the the payment structure Inter want then he will move there regardless of what we do. Frankly, we don't need him as we already have players to play his spot in the team. All we need is a striker and if Benteke is the guy then so be it. Buying players in areas we are already served in is senseless, IMO.

Seems like he is not deemed good enough Irish Rover unfortunately. To be fair I have hoped that he could come good for us. In fairness you can't hold it against the guy if he wants to leave although if I was him I'd be hoping for a good loan this seaso, he is only 18 and I can't see him getting into any of the PL sides week in week out. Hopefully we can work things out and continue to develop.

Everyone talks about Sinclair like he's the second coming. He looked very very good for his age 2 years ago, but hasn't done much since. If you're going to step into liverpools first team as a teenager you have to absolutely light it up in the youth teams. Sinclair hasn't really done that. I think everyone's worried were going to have a Pogba incident, but that's pretty rare. Most of the time it's like when we let Della Valle go to Fulham as part of the Konchesky deal (I think that's right names). Everyone was up in arms but with hindsight absolutely no big deal. Same with Tom Ince.

Care to explain who is the player to play that role?
Emre Can, James Milner and Henderson are traditionally like to like B2B midfield players, That leaves us with Lucas and Allen, We have tried Allen over there in the past. Do you seriously want Liverpool to play a diamond with Allen at the base?

Incredible

That would be a bizarre gamble Jonesred.

To start the season with a 22 year old with one season in FAPL and two teenagers who've basically zero experience in FAPL seems the height of stupidity after our struggles in front of goal last season.

Whereas in midfield we have Hendo, Milner, Can, Allen, Coutinho, Lallana & Teixeira who could all play in the roles occupied mostly by Kovacic.

Sinclair needs to play regular mans football before we know how good he is.
