Ed. just looking at possible feasible links to LFC for the Start of the new season as there are still areas I think we are weak. Any thoughts on targets.

Firmino / ?
Salah / Lallana
Mane / MARTINS

Can / Ox
Keita / Wijnaldum
GOERTZA / Henderson

Robertson / SESSEGNON
Van Djik / Gomez
DE VRIJ / Matip
? / Alexander-Arnold

ALLISON / Karius

£140m would go a long way to cover linked January moves for GK-RW-CM but any summer news. Who you think Klopp will chase to slot in to CB-RB-LB.

{Ed002's Note - At the asking price Martins would be a replacement for Salah or perhaps Mane - not a reserve. Goretzka will be moving to Bayern Munich. Sessegnon is not joining Liverpool. You can forget De Vrij and Alisson is possible depending what happens at another club.}

I highly doubt Martins or any other winger could even score half of what Salah has been scoring for us! We can’t let this players wanting to carry on. We must keep Salah at any cost as well the other two and add players that will take the pressure of them and give them rest when required!

Goretzka is off to Bayern hence the new development in Can’s contract situation. Let’s be honest a replacement for Can would cost us close to £50 mill and the club would be stupid to splash when they could tie down Can for a new contract.
I don’t think Kieta is a replacement for Can. He is an additon and if anyone, it would be Hendo who will move to bench!

Left back wouldn’t be a priority but I think we might buy a new RB in the summer.
Can is looking excellent atm. He is a £50 mil player tomorrow. We won’t do another Suso here!

Martins will cost a shed load of money for a back up so that is a non starter, Goreztka is off to Bayern and that is not news either. Sessegnon was a no go from jump too and if something can be done, Can needs to be kept.

Gelson does look a bit special though. Would be amazing to rotate with the front 3 but i guess no chance.

Martins should start ahead of Mane in my opinion. At least until Mane recovers his pace and agility from last season.

Is the club that are in for Allison PSG Ed? By you saying dependent on another club I'm assuming their position/ spending power would make them the players preferred destination? I know you haven't sat down and had a coffee with him to ask like. or maybe you have. Flat White kind of man, Latte or?

{Ed002's Note - Yes, PSG do have an interest and poentially Real Madid may do if things don't go their way in the summer.}
