Nothing concrete, but doesn't look promising if any of you wanted us to sign him.

It is unfortunately. We didn't really need him anyway, more of a luxury. We need to get out deference working, been our issue for years now. Defence with midfielders sitting in front of defence is what you'll see coming in, I reckon.

what we need as a attacking point of view is a pacey player that can take people on and deliver a end product whether that be a cross of a defence slitting pass

Think we'll more likely see at least 1 winger come in. Think we'll keep Markovic and get in someone else.

I don't know about pacey player, but we have firmino who can deliver defence splitting passes, as can coutinho etc.

ojo fits what you are describing. as long as the player provides width and are good for us off the ball (which entails a lot of things and is 60% of the battle imo) then they don't need bags of exceptional pace although it helps. they do need to be able to do things like run beyond the striker like reus/lamela etc can. I'm sure klopp will switch his attention back to players like sane, he has the bonus of some pace. whoever our new winger/attack midfielder is hopefully make successful dribbles, get themselves into positions to make key passes, be able to track back and make tackles.

when ever the likes of firminho or lalana get trough on goal but the goal is 60 yards away i have no faith they will go and score simply because they are too slow and get caught up by the opposition . we are crying out for some pace in the team

We are missing a set piece specialist, our corner kicks are pathetic and I can't remember too many scored free kicks last season. Maybe somebody also decent at spot kicks.
If we can get somebody in for those duties we could be looking at player who can contribute 10 + goals alone with plenty of assists.

Agree about free kicks and corners but I don't think we missed a penalty last season? Milner scored a few, and Sturridge one against Man Utd.
