Sign a new defensive mid and partner Fabinho and VVD in central defence we have enough cover with Gomez, Matip and the two young lads.

That would be an awesome central defensive partnership and durable too. The only thing wrong would Gomez feel frustrated but he is injured most of the time anyway

So it was you that started the Declan Rice rumours.

You mean playing with 5 at the back, or rather 3 central defenders?

That's a good shout. Depends on who's available. If Klopp has a CB in mind for the summer, it'd make sense to move Fabs back to CM but we still look like we need a midfielder to unlock defences. It's way too pedestrian and Ox, Shaq, Keita don't seem to be cutting it and way too injury prone.
The team obviously needs a shake up and it looks like Gini is first out the door. Be interesting to see who Klopp feels has had enough chances.

I think we will buy a CB as Fabinho will be back in midfield.

I'd prefer Fab in MF, he is such a good CM, he can play and is good cover, we should buy a specialised CB.

Arsenal just terminated the contract of their Greek CB- Sokratis Papastathopoulos, surely we could give him a 6 month contract with a view to extending, depending on how he gets on?

Klopp obviously has no faith in Williams or Phillips because he's now experimenting with Henderson alongside Fabinho. Playing our 2 most senior CM's at the back is a recipe for disaster. We may get away with it against inferior opposition in the FA Cup but the PL & CL we're likely to get mauled again aka Villa 7 v 2!

If he is not good enough for Arsenal, will he be for us?
