Hey Ed's, we all appreciate the work you guys put into the site, my question relates to long term suggestions that Klopp wants a squad reshuffle, so do you think Klopp is actively looking to offload a decent number of players from the squad e. g. 4 or 5 and if so who do you think is most at risk of being shipped out? Also, what are the chances of any new coaching staff coming in after the 2 from Bayern joined us a few weeks back? Cheers for any reply.

{Ed002's Note - The club have to lose considerably more players than they can add this summer. I have no idea about coaching and you need to understand that Nemmer and Kornmayer are not football coaches at all. Rangers are taking Rossiter. Swansea approached Liverpool in respect of taking Joe Allen on loan in January - it was rebuffed then but interest may exist in the summer. Milan may well take Balotelli but fear that they may need to renegotiate the price - else other options in Italy will be sought. Fenerbahce will look to sign Liverpool’s Lazar Markovic in the summer after a successful loan period but the player will look to discuss his future with the club - and he wants guarantees (I don't know if the club will give them or not). Trabzonspor want to take Yesil from Liverpool and have already made an approach to the club. Sinclair is off to Watford - and Enrique will leave. Teixeira has no future at Liverpool and will leave with interest from Sousa (but no agreement with Fiorentina but I expect tehre will be) and Zenit who are already looking at the market and sorting out another critical roll at the club. Coutinho is of interest to PSG and Sakho to Besiktas. I don't think there are any plans for Lucas to leave right now but If Lucas were to leave and a decision made not to promote any of the youngsters then perhaps the club would look to a replacement from outside. Joe Gomez has a lot of potential and the injury was a very significant disruption to his career. Part of the problem was always going to be related to the step up from playing centre back at a lower tier to playing it in the Prelemier League. As a full back it seems very clear that Klopp does not consider him as a viable option to start the season with. The option of a 6 month loan is there, and then the club can reconsider whether they need him for the latter part of the season. I would be rather surprised if he did not head to Celtic on a 6 month loan and very surprised if he doesn't go on loan somewhere. The club cannot keep adding players to an already bloated squad. Don't be surprised if Ibe doesn't make the cut at Liverpool. Ibe will very likely move on. Bogdan will move on. Benteke and Alberto will probably leave.}

Is it Sakho or Skrtel that is of interest to Besiktas?

{Ed091's Note - Skrtle I thought

I'd put money on Skrtel going before Sakho.

Nice rundown Ed's thanks.

{Ed002's Note - Yes, it should have said Skrtel.}
