Hi another first time poster.
If we want to win the EPL and CL during JK contract.
Who of our current players do you think are good enough and who of our reserve/ youth players have the potential to make it at that level?
Keep up the good work eds.

I'd say Coutinho, Mane, Can, Matip, Firmino and possibly Salah knowing his ability at Roma/ Basel. For youth and reserve wise i'd say Solanke (Potential) and Ejaria if he bulked up bit more, again he's got the all the tools to be a top midfielder, possibly Woodburn aswell?

Youngster wise Ojo, Wilson, Ward, Gomez, TAA and Woodburn - to me they all have quality what can lead to something great, especially Ojo and TAA.
Our first team - Coutinho, Sturridge (if fit), Firmino, Lallana, Hendo, Salah, Wijnaldum and Mane stand out to me, I can certainly see them players in a title winning side. The rest? a lot is debatable such as Matip, I liked what I saw from him considering it was his first season with us but he needs better support. But some are just plain and simple not good enough, like Lovren, Klaven, Moreno. Migs is also one of them to be debated, he looked decent towards the end of the season but overall he's not been good enough.

At the end of the day, it's a team game. Leicester won it with good form, decent defence, no injury worries and rode their luck a few times. Anyone can beat anyone in the prem nowadays.
Honestly, I don't think we have any 'world class' players, coutinho maybe the closest but needs to improve on his consistency. But we do have a very good squad who play very good football at times. Need to solidify the defence and hopefully not get any big injuries to key players and should be able to give it a good go!

Coutinho, firmino, mane, salah, sturridge, wijnaldum, Lallana, matip and mignolet (controversial I know but based on form of second half of season)
Potential - grujcic, origi, taa, ejaria, ojo for me
Woodburn and wilson possibly also.

Its more of is Klopp capable of winning the EPL or CL or not. Even if we have Messi Ronaldo and Suarez in the same team it still depends on the manager to win the Epl. Yes we should have great first 11 and a very strong bench but ultimately its the manager.

Hi thanks for the replies.
Pretty much agree our attacking options are going to take some besting this year.
Food for thought though that the general opinion is we don't have a back four that's good enough.
Would like to see TAA, Wodburn, Gomez, Ings, Solanke, Ojo and Ward stay for a full season training under Klopp and hopefully playing cup games. Got some good homegrown potential there for the quota (if Ward counts)
