Just on the subject of Middlesbrough does anyone else think Adama Traore could be worth a shout in the summer? I know his downfalls he's greedy, picks the wrong ball, has no real quality on the ball and he seems to be one of those players that could have issues with his temperament (I'll stand corrected on that if anyone knows different) but his pace is frightening and can really stretch teams. At the right price, less than £15mil I think he'd be a potent weapon from the bench and could be coached in to a better player. It's a risk but what does everyone else think?

I think you answered your own question pip.

Big risk and we already have Mane - rather we spent our funds on the area's we really need strengthening in.

I know but he just has all the physical attributes to be a really good player! Except perhaps talent ;-)

Come on pip, you should have realised halfway through writing this.

You're probably right Hjikle but I just can't help thinking with that pace he has in a better side he could be lethal. Like I said it's a risk but I do love a player with lightening pace.

Every time I see him I think that he's basically just Zaha but not quite as good.

And Zaha is not great.

So I would much rather give the role you are suggesting to Ojo or Wilson or Kent and use that £15mill elsewhere.

{Ed002's Note - What £15M? Why don't you propose not buying Neymar and using the £100M elsewhere?}

Pip he seems to have no end product I would rather have ojo step up. Barca let him go for a reason like most kids these days they get a contract of a big club and think they have made it when really the hard works just begun you never know mind we got gini of a relegated club and he's been a vital cog in our team this season.

On this basis I must be worth a shout.
I have all the physical attributes and no talent.
Anyone know a good agent? 🤠.

I'm lost Ed002? The original post said £15mill?

{Ed002's Note - Is this the £15M Liverpool have set aside to spend on him?}

Red is just using that figure because it's a figure I used Ed and I only used that figure as I don't think he's worth any more than that at the moment. I understand people saying about Ojo and Wilson etc. but it seems to me that Klopp doesn't fancy them or he would've thrown them in this season when Mane's been out when we were crying out for some pace in the team.

{Ed002's Note - And Klipperty has the hots for AT does he?}

No I just meant that the original poster had advocated spending £15mill on Adama Traore.

And I stated that we have players who can fill the role that he was suggesting, a sub who might come good, at the club already.

So instead of spending £15mill on Adama Traore I would rather use the money elsewhere.

Never suggested that Liverpool have £15mill set aside for Traore, it was the original post that stated that's what we should spend on him. Which I think would be a waste of £15mill.

No worries Ron we'll need someone to do that when Lucas goes. Jamesy I like Woodburn and Klopp obviously likes him but he's hardly got that raw pace that Traore possesses. I doubt Ron has either but when it comes to positivity there's no one better 👍.

{Ed001's Note - I would rather put Ron in the team personally, he would have to be better than Traore.}

He's also been relegated twice in two seasons for two different clubs. It's got to say something.

come on mate, he may be very fast but he doesn't know where his legs are, let alone where the ball is in relation to his feet.
