Morning Ed001 hope you are still enjoying number 6! I certainly am, I seem to find myself singing You'll never walk alone uncontrollably this whole week! It's great to see so much joy from everyone associated with the club. You can truly say there is more to come with what Klopp has built and how clear the desire is in the players. I have to say a proper word about what the club and Klopp have built - a fantastic team of players eho all seem to share the same fantastic mentailty. A lot of our key players are hitting the their peak together i think that speaks a lot to behind the scenes the plsnning has been excellent since Klopp came in he understood the limitations but progressed esch year and now I personally believe this summer is a great opportunity to complete the squad and allow us to challenge on all fronts - there are 7 pieces of silverware out there for us to challenge for next season! SEVEN!

I also wanted discuss a few players, firstly I have to mention Sadio Mane. I love the guy. The big games are just made for him he just maintains that cool, calm and collected mentality doesn't let it get to him and just plays naturally its fantastic. And how about Divock Origi to turn up like this its simply a reward for his attitude this season. I remember speaking to you Ed a little while back about him potentially staying do you think that will definitely be the case now? I'd love him to but I think for him personally he should move on, he deserves the chance to go somewhere where he would be starting especially at his age and what a way to leave he will never be forgotten. And finally James Milner I'm not sure I'll fully understand the impact he has had on the team in the dressing room etc but the way everyone speaks about him I get an idea. he's played a great season and you saw how much it meant to him at Anfield and Madrid. Thinking from his point of view now though I think he'll get less minutes with a more ready Keita, Ox back, maybe Lallana, Hendo now further forward all challenging him more in midfield and he shouldn't be cover at full back at this stage in his career. I say let him enjoy starting each week at his boyhoodclub maybe as captain after becoming a European Champion. Of course wouldn't mind if he decides to stay!

Apologies for the long winded post Ed001 it's been an incredible season with a deserving end and with this club it means more. YNWA.

{Ed001's Note - I don't think Origi is going to be honest, I expect him to stay. He forced his way back into Klopp's plans last season and I am told he believes he can get more regular game time this time out.

As for Milner, if Leeds had come up, I would have been sure he would move, as it is, I think he will give us one more year then join them, whether they are down or up. Hard to say for sure as it is up to him to decide what he wants to do.}

Milner surely will stay for one more season? Origi is also another one to keep for now. He has proven his worth and worked his socks off to get back into Klopp's plans.

LB, versatile forward and perhaps another RB. Probably will get an experienced Keeper, that is if Mignolet leaves.

We do not need more than 3 to 4 players.

Doubt we will be signing any CB's unless Lovren goes. Our squad is the strongest it has ever been for a very long time now. New additions will make the bench stronger. 1st eleven picks itself with our current squad.

It will be a shame when Milner leaves. Not only for his playing ability but i imagine he is a good presence in the dressing room. Im just glad he got to win something with us.

"1st eleven picks itself" I don't think it does mate. One Cb position up for grabs (probably Gomez), then 2 midfield places to fight for. Fabinho is in as no one else can really play his role.

If Ox gets backs to his pre injury form he is a starter for me. Like wise if Keita plays like he did for RBL he would be a starter. Nice to have the options and expect plenty midfield rotation.

Mark, I did mentoin that the 1st eleven picks itself from our current squad.

Interesting to see how origi will progress next year. His career stagnated slightly for a couple of years, still far from a starter for us but he got to taste the big moments in recent weeks and possibly earned another chance as a future Liverpool player when the likely scenario seemed a drop down to mid table teams. Hopefully he can push himself to not stagnate again, he was always our first choice reserve last 6 months, hoping Brewster can compete with him better than studge did and push him on. Origi has done well from the bench but always disappointed from the start I feel.

Origi won us the champions league. Ill eat my shirt if he leaves.

And milly was massive for us all season, im glad he is staying. I hope he stays for another 2/ 3 years. The guy is a physical phenomenon, he may be able to play at a high level for years to come.

Milner and origi don't need to be replaced in the squad. Milner an excellent asset and origi played his part. Ideal world we don't want origi to be our only option when needing a change in forward and we won't want Milner to have to play full back for long periods. 2 good squad players for now hopefully.
