Ed002.thanks again for replying to my questions. Is Lucas Ocampos being looked at by LFC as one of the versatile fowards under consideration for a potential bid this window?

{Ed002's Note - If Mane or Jota were to leave Liverpool could look to another LW.}

Curious on your thoughts Ed and want to make it very clear not having a go am genuinely curious. You seem to be stringent on players having a fixed position. In the past having distinguished a Left sided CB from a right CB and LW RW when mentioning players Liverpool look at and who they potentially would need to get rid of.

Do you think the game is moving more away from set positions and players at the top level are expected to be able to adapt to a number of positions? Does this come down to training or the players capabilities themselves? Just curious as at times people like Peps philosophy nearly seems to be his ideal scenario would be 10 what would have previously been referred to as box to box midfielders who are all capable of doing a bit of everything at any given moment. It's also been seen to a lesser extent at Liverpool and other clubs with fluid front 3s at times and sometimes having midfielders join the attack or defense depending on the situation.

Overall do you think the game is moving away from having defined roles for individual players and we will keep progressing towards "total footballers" capable of nearly playing every position?

{Ed002's Note - Whilst versatile players are always wanted and wingers can oftern play on either side (Salah and Willian are good examples) players have a natural and preferred position. Liverpool have been looking at RW players like Sarr, Traore, Bowen and Doku. Clubs want, ideally, two players for every outfield position.}

Hi Ed’s,

Ed002 just read you mentioned RW side players Liverpool would like…. I’ve read your previous comments about Bowen, Sarr and Traore…. I see Doku has now been mentioned are Liverpool interested in him? (I think he is a wonderful talent) and personally would think he would fit well in with this Liverpool side (young player with a lot of potential) .

Thanks again.

{Ed002's Note - Doku would be one for next summer not this.}
