Sounds like we moved for Alisson after his price dropped as RM moved onto Courtois, I doubt we would have got him if we had bought Fekir before the WC, I'm glad we got Alisson as we desperately needed a GK, we have a few options for AM.
I think any deal for Fekir will now come down to offloading some players. The Allisson deal probably happened because Real Madrid dropped their interest in him or what I believe... they used him to get Courtois! The money for Allisson was probably the money that was going to be used for Fekir. The real spanner in the works is Sturridge's reluctance to go anywhere else whilst he has a year of 120k a week. Sturridge is now stating he wants to stay and fight for a place which as we know just isn't an option because we can't trust him and his fragile constitution. Klopp needs to tell Sturridge that he isn't in his plans and try and force Sturridge's hand...if not then get a club to pay his wages for the year and have done with him.
I still think Klopp would like to get a deal done for Fekir, with Ox now out for the season but things have changed so quickly.
Don't think so. If we hadn't bought Shaqiri then maybe.
Even with Shaqiri signing if we are going all out on 4 fronts we may need another attacking player as Ox is out for the season. It would only take two injuries to the wrong players for us to be left with a front 3 of Firmino Shaqiri Ings with no further cover for those 3 from the bench.
We need one more. If we can move Sturridge on for a fee and ship one of the other keepers out maybe we can go back for Fekir.

Ings will be sold anyway but we have Lallana back.
