You can't just keep replacing a whole team season after season. Small decent upgrades is the way forward. Lovern & Sakho may not be good enough for were we are going, we will see next season. At the moment they are doing well. But we cannot go replacing our whole backline at once.
I'm hoping Matip will be better than both. Migs is playing well but he definitely needs replacing in the summer. He cost us too many points this season and will do the same next season. He is not a top level keeper I mentioned about replacing the whole team to make a point to the person who set up the thread. If you get rid a defense because individually and collectively they aren't perfect you would end up getting rid of the full squad if you held everyone up by the same standards. Mignolet - fine Moreno - needs competition Sakho - fine Lovren - fine Clyne -fine The thread been set up because we conceded 3 against Dortmund. the main reason for this wasn't the defense but because the game was so open. I don't think Sakho and Mignolet are fine, would take Hummels and get a better keeper anytime.

He's good in the air and quite nice on the ball, but he makes a lot of mistakes that lead to goals. He was at fault for several of the ones we scored. Not a bad player, but for the money we'd pay for him, I would look elsewhere.

I think Gomez coming back will put pressure on Moreno, Moreno is just a liability, he is always being caught of position as he runs forward, I think he would work better in a back 5, but in a back 4 he just leave us exposed.
I can see Toure and Skrtel moving on in the summer, bring in another quality CB with Matip, so that give us Sakho/Lovren/Matip/another plus Gomez as cover CB.
I also think we will get a quality keeper to replace Bogdan, we need quality to replace/rival Mignolet if he is injured/out of form, I've not seen enough of Ward to say if he is good enough to step up yet, but reports sounded good from Aberdeen. Its interesting how teams now have a number 1 for league and number 1 for Cups, maybe that's how we could have 2 quality keepers happy? seems risky to me as defenders would not be used to a keepers style, knowing when they would/not come for a cross etc.

Keep forgetting about Gomez,whether he's the answer or not is uncertain but Mo Deffo isn't.

I don't want any defenders other than Matip and MAYBE a left back. Joe Gomez, Flannagan, and Smith to me should be pushing our fullbacks for places, and our two starting cbs rotating with matip would be good enough for me.

I agree, good player, but abit overrated and we would have to pay a fortune for him, he was rattled by our attackers, couldn't believe how many times he was grabbing players, he did it a few times in the box, abit like Skrtel does, the strength he has is he is comfortable on the ball stepping into midfield, like the pass he setup for Reus goal.

Kroos.. Good that you are not Klopp, only somebody who knows football from football manager would change so many players in one season.
