Definitely need a winger (inside fwd or whatever) or two come this summer. After Coutinho/Mane we have no real cover what-so-ever.

Suggestions on who you'd like to see come in?

First choice for me would be Yannick Ferreira-Carrasco from Ath Madrid.

Other options -
Thomas Lemar
Julian Brandt
Riyad Mahrez
Demarai Gray
Bellerabi
Rafa Silva
Anwar El Ghasi
Malcolm
Etc, any I've missed that've done the rounds or you'd like to see?

Rumour suggest we're in for James Rodrigues as our AM reinforcement. If he did come in the I doubt we'd also bring in a winger.

I've also seen a couple links to Dembele at Dortmund, and heard that Douglas Costa is available this summer. I don't know much about these two players personally (don't watch much foreign football) but have heard good things.

Who ever we go for needs to be lightning quick and know how to finish (a Mane for the left wing)

Personally I don't understand why we are after James Rodriguez, I think he is hugely over-rated off the back of one good World Cup for Columbia.

We need to be looking at strikers and pacey wide players before we sign more number 10 type attacking midfielders!

Who do you have in mind?

According to rumours, LFC has been in contact regarding Mahrez.

We have two "wing-backs" who don't have the skill to scoot past opponents and get to the corner and put in a decent cross or cut the ball back.

Either we replace them, use Milner as a rotating midfielder and reduce Clyne to a squad player, or we need wing-half's who can do the job.

Not for me, one season wonder.

The original post has some good suggestions, Carrasco in particular at Atletico Madrid, whether we could get him or not I don't know.

Lemar and or Mbappe from Monaco would be fantastic.

Strikers wise I'd like to see Icardi from Inter Milan, Lacazette is another realistic option.

Lacazzatte is off to atletico Madrid.
Icardi I'm not too Bothered about players from Italy tend to bomb in England.
Thomas lemar would be nice. Carrasco would be a dream.

I still think markovic deserves a few games before he is written off.

I'm not too sure on Markovic but if he's given the chance then fair enough. I'd not do it at the expense of buying a quality winger/front player as he didn't show much first time around but at least this loan has given him EPL experience. He'd add to our squad depth also.
