Lovren should be eased out going forward, he will need some time after his injury to hit form and don't think he is even in the medium term plan, he almost left in the last transfer window if the money was good. That said, cant see us buying anyone unless there is a bargain somewhere, hope to be wrong

The point is: what happens if either of VvD or Gomez ship an injury next time they play? I'd hate to face Leicester with one of the youngsters deputising for either one or God forbid both! And that's not talking about full back cover, we're gambling here, and it's fingers crossed we don't pay the price.

Most of us wanted a top CB in the summer but we've come into the season with 4 and unfortunately 2 are injured. Nothing we can do until Jan if one gets injured but we should be restored by then.

Problem is Matip and Gomez are injury prone so considering what's at stake, solid cover in Jan would be super.

Yep 2 injured and Fabinho the cover player out too is just unlucky. Can't think of any team who would have a 6th player who would comfortably slot in as a CB. So not buying was the correct decision. Now we are in this position another decision needs to be made in Jan.

Klopp did say he'd look at other Salzburg players so whom in their side can we nab in January also to help us out. Did any of their Defenders look any good or Def Midfielders to help us? I can't remember any in particular!

Don't think Salzburg are great at defending, their strength is attack. We have to look for good bargains first and foremost
