So in the last 2 games Liverpool have had a total of almost 70 shots, scoring 3 goals in the process. They had 5 shots against and conceded 3. That stat is mind boggling. The first stat cries out for that Number 9. A Kane, Lukaku, Morata type player. Firmino when he plays up front is more less a no 10 anyway when he drops deep. So then the second stat. The one everyone could see from the start, a top CB is required. I actually thought it was good that Liverpool didn't settle for anyone else other than Van Dijk but as the window came to a close I thought ok it's time you look elsewhere, for a quick fix at lest. Couthino played today and was average. Yes it's his first start in ages so there going to be rust and he did show glimpses of his old self but it's clear Mane is the main man. It's scary how different Liverpool look without him.

I think you need a DM in the Matic mould as much as you need a CB.

Thought we had a world class stats man as sporting director.

Stand, the whole DM thing regarding this game, is a misnomer. Would a DM suddenly make us not fluff our lines upfront like we have been doing in the last two games? Would a DM stop Lovren from clearing a ball my two year old would have cleared? Would a DM have stopped Matip from letting himself get bullied for the Burnley goal? If your answer is yes, then I give up. If the answer is no, then we can have an honest debate.

Dan19, your first stat is spot on. That to me has nothing to do with getting a no. 9 as scoring goals has never been a problem for us (we are top 5 since Klopp arrived) so that is again, a misnomer. Only in the last two games has it been an issue and that is due to poor finishing and bad decision-making esp. today. Even with that, we could have scored 3 today. To me, it is a loss of confidence thing as players are doing way too much and overthinking things hence, Firmino missed a penalty that on a good day, was already a goal. This is where the manager has to come in and take the pressure off them cos clearly, it is getting to them.

As for he CB situation, it has been litigated enough, IMO so I won't comment on it as it is just preaching to the choir and nothing else is being learnt.

Bingo, a proper DM would offer protection to your back for so when the ball was lost it's less likely to pressure your CB into making mistakes with cover in front of him. How can your argument be about missing chances! That's a whole different thing. So salah was pointless as Lovren still makes mistakes? You conceded about 50 goals last season, and the season before that. And unless you address that you won't win the league. It's that simple. Gung-ho attacking football is great if you get the balance right. which of your midfield 3 if holding while the other roam foreword? To me it just seems like all attack. Nobody offers any kind of protection to an already shambolic back 4.

Rumors flying around that the Coutinho deal is off. Any information on your end Eds? Thanks.

Hi Eds, away from all these Lemar rumours I'm wondering if you know why Mignolet was dropped yesterday. It seemed really strange that he was dropped for a game like that.
Thanks as always.

Lemar is a frightening prospect. I thought he was arsenal bound? He's a future superstar.

Eds Do you know if Coutinho has handed in a transfer request. It seems to be all over the place.

Ed 02, what does a transfer request actually mean? Does it change anything regarding Liverpools stance over the transfer? Thanks as always.

Dan19

{Ed002's Note - It means the player is willing to forego his 5% of the transfer fee to try and get the move he wants. The club don't need to accept it.}
