Hoping for a CB pairing of Sakho and Matip next season, with Lovren and Gomez as back up, not too bad. Save the money from buying Virgil Van Dijk and invest on a quality left back, CM(Keita, Parades), RW, ST(Werner, Lacazatte, Abumeyang?) and probably a left footed attacker.
Plenty of dead wood in our team too atm: Steward, Klavan, Sturridge(his injury record is so frustrating), Lucas, etc.

p/s: hope mane's injury is not too serious. Wouldn't mind him missing a few weeks but nothing more please.

So u're saying Benteke is world class, it means that he's on the same level as world class strikers like Suarez, Abumeyang, Lewandowski, Sanchez? biggrin.gif tongue.gif bangwall.gif

Disagree that Klavan is 'deadwood'.

He's a hard worker and is the closest thing we have to a Carragher at the moment.  We need solid British / Euro players like him to cover for the absences of African players like Matip.

We're short of 1 more world-class CB, but the backline will look much better if we have a quicker and solid option at LB.  Milner can be caught out a bit although he plays with heart.  The trio of Milner, Klavan, Matip is slightly slower on the left side of the pitch.  It's more important to get a really good DM to cover the defence instead of relying on short term fixes like Can, Lucas and Hendo.  Hendo seems to prefer to play in the middle of the pitch anyway.
*
Klavan is deadwood when u compare him to Lovren and Gomez. Hence there's really no need for him to be in the team cuz he'll eventually be a backup to our backup.
I really like Milner, he's a very versatile player. I would keep him as a squad player and as a backup to our first choice left back and CM.
Can has been excellent this few games and I would want his contract to be sorted out ASAP. He's young and I can see him being a starter one day.

I like klavan thou. Left footed, composed with the ball. Like Matip, he is very calm but unfortunately, we can't have two of this type of cb on the field. That's why Lovren who is more aggressive is ahead of him in picking order.

Totally agree on Milner. Reminds me of Kuyt. Average but very reliable. Always give their best in every match but rarely injured. Even at the ends of their career, they still push to their limits.
*
Klavan is okay, he's not terrible by any means, but he's just too slow. In terms of speed he's no better than Lucas playing at CB. I would very much prefer someone big and strong who's also good with the ball, like Van Dijk, although bringing Sakho back won't be too bad either.
Honestly I wouldn't want Milner near our starting 11, but he's a decent backup to have.

No way when compared to Gomez. Don't forget he is very much unproven in the league even more so coming off such a lengthy layoff. There's no telling if he will even come good eventually. Hype and expectation doesn't always match reality.
*
His debut season playing at left back was pretty decent and I believe he has the potential. He's still very very young and if there's someone then can turn him into a monster CB, it's Klopp.

Decent by the standards set by Moreno. His performances really wasn't all that amazing, just acceptable for a natural right footed centre back slotted at left back. Let's not forget after the horror show of Moreno's first season, all we asked for was someone to not fuck up at the back and Gomez was that.

We do have games where we could judge him and those are cup games of this season. Frankly speaking, not great as you can tell from our not so amazing cup runs. Whether or not those subpar performances were impacted by his lengthy injury does not matter. He needs time to get up to pace, maybe he will go back to being the wonderkid he was or maybe he will never be the same again, only time will tell which is why for the foreseeable future he will not be in anyway better than Klavan. If he does turn good eventually it will be at least 2-3 years down the line by which time it is time to let Klavan go anyway.

And not sure what confidence you have in Klopp's ability to make him better. Sure Klopp is a very good coach with a very good reputation of developing young players but most of those involve players in midfield or attacking positions or attacking aspects of the game. Klopp is not known for his ability to coach a defense, ask any Dortmund fan and they can tell you that much.

If we do sign another CB this summer, Klavan will be pushed down the pecking order as our 4th choice CB. For a player of his ability as a 4th choice really isn't that bad, pretty good in fact. Just look at some of our top 6 rivals, some of them can't even sort out their 1st and 2nd choices.
*
Gomez just came back from injury and only had a few games in the league cup until we were knocked out. Never feature again since then.
Klopp was having defensive troubles during his first season in Dortmund but second season he made some tweaks in his formation and developed players like Subotic, Hummels who went on to become really good defenders. I wouldn't mind having Gomez as a backup honestly, if we sign a top CB, having Lovren and Gomez as backup would be pretty decent.
Don't mind having Klavan as 4th choice, just don't think the player would want that, he's not getting any younger haha.

time for Origi to shine like end last season.  rclxm9.gif  rclxm9.gif
always prefer Origi over hot n cold Firmino. He is more consistent given with match time he gets. Dunno why Klopp choose Firmino  hmm.gif
*
Without Mane we'll honestly fxcked, he's very direct and his speed is crucial for us to open up defends. If Firmino would be to shifted to RW it would honestly slow us a lot down, would prefer Coutinho on RW and perhaps Origi on LW, Firmino up front. (Coutinho played RW for Brazil last week if I'm not mistaken).
Good news is we'll probably have Sturridge on the bench so he's a great option to have, can swap with either front 3 later on in the game if needed.

origi also same.
prior to weekend game, he hadn't scored in something like 12 games totalling over 700 mins of playtime.

With Origi he doesn't have the footballing intelligence like Firmino. Origi is good, but he can be really frustrating to watch at times, I remember few games ago he started up front and I remembered him losing every single aerial duel in that game. He's not smart enough to use his body wisely, or make decisions faster to unlock defence (like making quick passes). He's still young though and has a lot more to learn.

Ragnar Klavan can absolutely fuck off come the summer. He's so terribly slow and clueless in defence. Such a big fella but always being bullied off the ball. Nothing good about him, can't even make a decent pass FFS. So slow until Lovren have to keep covering for him. Fuck I'm pissed.

Only Klopp/ Liverpool can let Sakho go on loan, put in a few man of the match performances while we're stuck with Ragnar fucking Klavan.

Klavan was at fault for the 2nd goals, by not pushing up with the line.
If not, Bournemouth's player would be in offside position.

He's absolutely clueless, terrible defender. So big size but easily bullied off the ball.

Mane out, Lallana Out, Hendo Out, Coutinho might be out too. Stoke only won one match for entire March, time for Liverpool to surrender them 3 points.
Hope Klopp realized how stupid it is for him to not invest in January.

This is such a terrible game. Jurgen Klopp has been making all the wrong decisions this 2 games. WTF is wrong with our fucking line up. It's absolutely terrible, reminds me of Roy Hodgson's era.
It would be a miracle if we can even secure one point. BYE BYE TOP 4.

The shape of our formation is terrible. Everybody feels so out of place, I don't even know who's our attacking players.
Klopp is an absolute joke for fielding this line up, wtf is going through his mind.

Just losing Mane can make the whole team crumble. doh.gif

Did Klopp rely on Mane too much?

What the heck with today's line up anyway.

We wouldn't be relying on Mane if Klopp would invest during the January transfer window. But his egotastic balls decided that it's best to trust our youth players and also the deadwood in our team, it's so so so disappointing.

I feel bad for Origi, he has no support at all. The only support he has is an 18 year old youth team player. I'm so pissed.
