Also. Ian ayre has flown to Spain again. Last time he went he tried to get Sanchez and fabregas and we lost Suarez.

So we have been linked with Jeremy mathieu and mascherano.
Which means we will probably lose coutinho.

Good ol' Ian ayre

I'm seeing a lot of comments on here saying Klavan is solid, reliable, etc. How many times have people seen him play? Who watches Augsburg or Estonia regularly enough to say he's solid with 100% confidence?

I know we played Augsburg twice last year so is that what we are judging him on?

We are repeating what we have heard and read.

It's like daniel agger replacing sakho for the time being, you don't know if you want him until you've seen him. sakho made mistakes last season with his concentration, and poor clearances/headed clearances that led to goals for example. sakho has improved in making more blocks since the start of the season, we'll see if klavan is as good at this.

we saw in the europe league final what sort of leader we can have at the back as toure was arguably our best player alongside lovren, we need sakho or someone else to be a leader like sakho was away at man utd every match. I don't think klavan is that, but we definitely we need a better centre back partnership and leader like kompany is for city.

Exactly, so in reality none of us know anything about him and we won't until we see him in a Liverpool shirt. We therefore can't say he's solid, good back up, etc until we have seen him perform for Liverpool surely?

He's being billed as a solid back up by the newspapers so that is what people are expecting.
