I fear the midfield will be our weak link next season. I cannot think Zielenski(if he signs) and guric are going to hit the ground running. If they make it here it won't be next season unless they are pretty special players. So that leaves us with Can, Hendo and milner. Not good enough. We need a top midfielder and we should have 30-40m to spend on one with all the sales There are only 2 spots available and Can has one of those nailed down. Hendo is club captain, so unless Klopp really shakes things up we have more than enough CMs to compete in 1 game a week. Can, Hendeo, Milner, Allen (or his potential replacement- Zielinski/ Dahoud/ Neves etc.) + youth/ rotation/ cup players Grujic, Stewart, Brannagan, Chirivella is prob enough if we're only playing once per week. Only way I see us buying another CM is if we sell Hendo or Milner, which is unlikely imo. We need to sell Allen, Lucas and think about selling Henderson. Next season we will have upgraded our defense our attack and with Sturridge back. We will have a big lump sum of money to break the bank for a midfield upgrade. Because at the moment the midfield has not been upgraded and is a problem. Allen is a much improved player under Klopp, I would keep him and anyway we have an ass load of rubbish prospects that we need to ship out before Allen.

Lacazette Your list changes every fukking week, no doubt depending on who you bought in FIFA! Give it a fukking rest will you. FSG will buy who Klopp wants not you so get used to it! Bender brothers are gutted and gonna hang up their boots.

Toward the end of the window I think Kloop will look to capture a top striker. based on what he has left based on sales

Because at the moment the midfield has not been upgraded and is a problem. Selling Allen and Lucas would still not get us another starting CM, unless Klopp takes the captaincy off Hendo which I don't see happening, not yet anyway. So we have CM covered, assuming we're playing 4-2-3-1: Can and Hendo. Milner, Allen (or replacement), Lucas (or replacement), Stewart, Chirivella as backup CM. 2 starters, 5 backups for CM. We will only be playing ONCE per week for most of the season. No need for a 'break the bank' CM this window.

danny sturridge can not be our no1 striker too fragile and leaves us with a big class hole in our attack when hes out! new tc striker is a must danny is great when fit but how many games can we seriously expect out of danny i think we played 60-70 last season we wont play that many this season but still i for one would not be happy relying on danny as our no 1 just an opinion ? Not even sure Klopp sees Sturridge as No.1, clearly likes Origi a lot, so wouldn't be surprised to see him feature a lot. Then there's Ings and Firmino, I think we're ok. Origi is nowhere near a class finisher and I would be worried if he was our number 1 striker. Why? If Klopp rates him then he's good enough. We have a class finisher in Sturridge. Fair enough he's had a crappy injury record but he hasn't been injured since January, looked sharp in the last few games and suffered no scraes at the Euros. IF he gets injured again, Origi and Ings are more than capable of stepping up. No other team in the PL has more than 1 good/ great striker, not even Chelsea or City. We have a great one (one of the best in the PL), a good one, a decent one and a couple of Mids capable of doing a decent job there if required. We're fine.

We will only be playing ONCE per week for most of the season. No need for a 'break the bank' CM this window. We have places covered but the players are not good enough. Can and Hendo. Milner, Allen(assuming he stays) is the exact same midfield as last season. These new guys coming in or touted to come in are potential. There is nothing to suggest that they are anything more. So we have basically the same starting midfield as last season which was not good enough. The potentials look to be taking Allen & Lucas spots. So then we should be looking to upgrade on Henderson he can play as a squad player.

So you want to bench the club captain?
Out of interest, where does Hendo fall short, what does he lack?
Who would you replace him with?

Who would you replace him with? He falls short in most areas other than work rate. Don't get me wrong, he's a good all round player, that can do most things to a decent level, but he doesn't excel at anything and he doesn't create enough. Unfortunately we need more than decent. He's a very good squad player though. But I think we need a bit more creativity in our midfield. As to who we should sign, I have no idea, I'd hope the scouts would have some suggestions
