So they could interchange and make it very hard for opposition defenders. I'd love to have Can and a decent DM behind them, or even a player like Xhaka, Kante of Kondogbia.


Yep I like this idea

If Godze comes we'll have too many AM players

No we won't!

The rest can sit on the bench and be ready to be subbed on. laugh

If we get CL footie we will need more players than we currently have - albeit preferrably of better quality. But Rome wasn't built in one day, and we can't continue to turn around players left, right and middle as we have done the last couple of years.

same, that's the idea to get them interchanging the way that arsenal bring their AM's like sanchez into play.

I'm just unsure overall why liverpool aren't signing a right mid, unless ofc gotze is going on the right? should gotze be a permanent fixture on the right, there is little need for lallana as we know mario can also play in the centre.

Imagine if coutinho and lallana were both sold it would show the importance of signing players who will work hard. Ninja said something very interesting about lallana, because he contributes so much defensively, the attacking side of his game suffers or something along those lines. is our central midfield on the right side weak? and our attack down the left stronger, it's hard to pin the problem areas when no area seems very strong that it can't be looked at

We'll have a few sure, but the main thing is that you have a mix of experienced players with potential up and comers. It could look like this if you take into consideration getting Gotze and getting our players on loan back:

This could be our attacking line:

Gotze/Ings...Firmino/Lallana...Coutinho/Markovic
.....................Sturidge/Origi..................

Our attacking players could be Coutinho, Firmino, Gotze, Markovic, Lallana, Ings, Origi, Sturidge, Alberto, Ojo.

I don't know if we'll keep Alberto or Markovic, but I think we'll probably keep Markovic. If Big Ben leaves, then we'll probably bring in a new striker, or just keep the 3 and hope they stay fit.

That is why I keep blabbing about the importance of a DM to play along side Can or Hendo behind these attackers to help keep that middle solid. I think this is what Klopp will do if he gets Gotze.

whole bayern attack played well, a finished article bayern team who should have made the CL final, but anyway I have my reservations. I know klopp tells us (the fans) to not judge so quickly given this season, but if gotze joins us that's exactly what I will be going on, judging on his first game for us. If he's as good as we think he is for munich then he should make an impact on his debut for us?

Well people go on about tcp's, he's a tcp? then no excuses?

ignore me I'm just grumpy, this is not how I'd go about improving our attack. I wouldn't be adding a big name player to a position we're not sure he'll be great in.
