Gomez omitted from squad due to a bit of tightness in the leg. Should be fit for Sunday

And what happens after that is anyone's guess!

Agent Coulson

Moreno is captain for the game.

marklazarcovic

I have this feeling, slightly controversial given the player I'm referencing,that shaqiri is gonna be our cantona.


Cheap signing that gets us over that line finally. He just has... something.

BorneTobyWilde

What ever team ends this game could be starting against East Beef

I argued a few weeks ago that our CB options are as good as any in the league. I stand by that. Gomez, Klavan and Matip as 3rd/4th/5th options are very good. It's only really the front 3 that the replacements are poor for - a fit Sturridge and Shaqiri go a long way to helping there, but Ings/Origi/Ojo/Solanke are too big a drop in quality...

deffo need another attacking option even if it is for backup...
would hate to see us doing great in the league and then falling away because of poor squad depth

NukaCola

We wont do any more business. Squad depth is the best it has been in an age. I'd love another attacker I just dont see it happening unless we have a clear out.

Currently here Salah/Firmino/Mané/Sturridge/Shaqiri/Origi/Ings/Solanke/Brewster. Brewster has probably been guaranteed games seeing as he was off and then signed a new contract, Solanke IMO needs a loan but Klopp seems to rate him highly, Sturridge isn't going anywhere. Other than that Ings and Origi are probably off.

Thats still 7 forwards. I dont see us getting another forward unless Solanke or Brewster or both go out on loan, there is a drop off in quality to the young lads and we can probably only rely on 4 from those 7 but still I'd say Klopp is happy with what we have.

Agent Coulson

Honestly I'd just like to see the club spend another £50/60m (Fekir, Pulisic, A another) on a player just to see Jose cry.

Turtyturd

I don’t think we need another attacker. I think with the fluidity of the front three and the addition of Shaqiri we can cope with any short term time off and will have at least one of Solanke, Ings , or Origi to bring on when a game is won or for cup games.

If VVD gets injured we are in a bit of bother

rob316

Doesn't look like Alisson will be the most expensive keeper for long.

Your forgot the one that does and there most expensive signing Felipe Anderson ,He is a really really good player

They have been playing him on the wing.

Potential Underachiever

Yeah would definitely like another attacking option, doesn't look likely at this stage though.

We have Sturridge, Shaqiri and Lallana to slot into certain positions, it's decent depth but after that we're really scraping the barrel. Hopefully we get that 55m from Ings and Origi in soon, we could do business then!

Strong team tonight, If VVD gets injured then we're in a bit of bother to say the least.

Harry Palmr

Soon? It's 46.5 hours to the close of business.

A pity they wouldnt sell us martial,he would suit.

can we please stop talking about the players we really don't want to see getting injured, getting injured?

Insane that Chelsea could break the record price for a keeper,I never even heard of the lad,crazy stuff

Less pressure on Alisson if it does happen.

there 's an element of desperation which isn't their fault, remember how much we paid for Carroll. We offered 30M, Newcastle said No, we offered 35M, if they hadn't said yes who knows where we'd have ended up.

Hadn't heard of Kepa either until earlier but Real we're in for him last year and he has a cap for Spain and was in their WC squad. Money's gone crazy, say this every year but no sign of the bubble bursting yet.

Kepa - he had agreed to sign for Madrid in January for €8M but the deal fell through.

Sofa Spud

Really looking forward to this - bit surprised that it's not sold out

Bilbao don't mess around - if you have the money and want their player they won't accept anything less than the release clause. They squeezed €65M out of Man City for Laporte last year.

The big build up and he misses.

Fabinho puts the peno wide
