Interesting some say why not Austin?

We already have a similar striker in Ings. We need one which fits the system we are going to play. That probably rules out Benteke. Not saying Tex is going to replace Benteke, but Lalana is also at risk as Tex plays in his position and much faster and a goal scorer which Lalana lacks in both aspects.

At this rate if Tex comes in, we are going to see Firminho keepin his place at the top with Sturridge out for the foreseeable future.

Kevin De Bruyne suffers a knee ligament injury which might rule him out until the end of the season. This might be a good news for us ahead of the final.

Liverpool vs City final.

Time for Sakho to chokeslam Sterling?

Aguero hat trick against our shit defense?

in hindsight, it is very easy to say those players were success.
but i just got 1 word - aspas.

With these obviously congested fixtures, I can see why players are starting to fatigue. And I predict injuries will start to kick in again before it gets better.

Which might explains why in certain matches our players look static as fck.

Now this begs a question, have we done enough during January transfer market to solve this issue? I know many might not agree to buy players in January just to have more depth (because more players will be available once the injury list is clear).

But we will be doomed once another wave of injuries come. Surely it is better to be prepared?

Thank god we managed to scrap through Exeter by playing youngsters though.

Expected to be 2 more weeks if I am not mistaken. I guess he should be back to training by mid of February?

No thanks to our early season injuries which some are still on.

IMO for this season, Klopp is not going to fire fight and use a major part of his budget in this Jan window.
This season is for him to feel the league and gauge the players left by BR.
That the reason he is playing the juniors in the cup games.

My guess is anything higher than 6 is a bonus. Europa league qualification is the goal for next season.

If win the league cup next month, already can qualify for Europa league.

Austin is more about short and temporarily solution suggested, especially the fixture is so congested, almost 3/4 day you see the team plays again one.

I don't think Tex is coming.
At £38 mil price tag, it may be too much risk to take.
I would rather to see the club save the money for the summer transfer window.

Apparently Liverpools first offer of 32million was rejected (according to Alex Teixeira< my guess he liaise with his agent)

2 weeks a long time

Hope he can make it before we face Leicester

Short term can be mixed to form longer term solutions where possible. Tex is that possibility.
Yeah. At 38mil, no way.

Getting a another striker when we already 4 at the club is not really a good solution, short term or not.
So win the Cap one cup and qualify and then the objectives can be relaxed.
