Seemed to come out of nowhere this one but I believe he will do well. Gives me a bit more optimism than when Lallana signed.

69M for he and Mane, they have allot to prove.
ED's and members do you see Wijnaldum playing #10 centrally or out wide with his speed behind Coutnho-Mane-Firmino?

You'll probably all bash me but I think it's a poor signing. Hope I'm proved wrong I think we need abit of strength and a leader in CM not someone who can do a job in a number of positions.

Yipster, think he will play out wide, probs on the left.

Theresonlyone88, i was referring to the amount of negative comment this transfer has drawn across the site over the past week or so - i don't actually have an opinion either way because I haven't really seen him play but it feels like some LFC fans have personally scouted him and deemed him inadequate.

Yipster so you don't think we have enough in the centre with hendo, emre can, grujic, stewart, lucas and also ejario coming through.

Wobsworth yh we have enough I prefer quality over quantity, I want us to grace Europe, like I said I hope I'm proved wrong and I'll be the first to hold my hands up. Lucas looks set to leave. Grujic is unproven though he looks exciting. Van is brilliant but raw and hendo leaves a lot to be desired. I'd just like an experienced head to sure things up. I want us to grace the champions league, just purchased bt sport lol.

There is a feeling with nufc fans that if he doesn't play no 10, he's not effective.
I think klopp has his work cut out to get consistently good performances from this guy playing wide or deeper mf- but if anyone can do it, he can.

I like him, obviously talented also strong, quick and powerful
Looking forward to seeing him.

He won't be playing on the left if Coutinho is still here neither will he play on the right with Mane already there and not no.10 with Firmino there so will the big fans of this signing enlighten me on where he will play as I have no clue.

Cincyred, I guess its possible that we are actually buying a good quality player so that we have a good quality bench when the inevitable injuries happen, rather than with a specific starting place in mind?
I do think it will focus some players minds knowing a talented player like wijnaldum is chomping at the bit to take their place if they underperform.

There are a few options with Widjnaldum but in essence I think his signing is a direct result of lack of goals from Milner, Joe Allen and Llalana. I'd see him as someone to transition play swiftly to the forwards and score goals through arriving late in the box.

More specifically I suspect he'll be used at
1) left midfield in a 4-3-3 (ie direct Joe Allen replacement)
2) perhaps at no.10 if using Firmino as a false 9 (or resting Firmino)
3) As impact sub for either Mane or Coutinho out wide
4) very selectively at deeper midfield to rest Hendo or Can.

A goal scoring midfielder - he'll do well. Don't worry about Wijnaldum.

Wijnaldum = strength and speed of Bolaise, football brains of sneijder. Good catch.

Non of cout, Lallana, Firmino are a no.10. Wini will fit right there.

He plays for Liverpool now so what ever happens let's support him and hope he plays as well as we know he can but more regularly than he did through the back half of last season.
