Ings out for the season. ACL. Awful for the lad was our brightest player so far was looking forward to seeing him under Klopp. Question to Ed1 if you are about. If the choice was yours would you look at promoting youth for a chance to impress up front (Maybe Sinclair although I know he refused a contract)
{Ed002's Note - There is more than enough cover with Sturridge, Benteke and Origi in the first instance.}

Thanks Ed2 for the reply. Hopefully it will give Origi a chance to gain some confidence in front of goal! Gutted for Ings and Gomez. Both would have improved massively over the season I feel. Given they were utilized in the correct position
{Ed002's Note - It is indeed a great pity.}

I agree in principle Ed002 but both Benteke and Sturridge are relatively injury prone and there is a high possibility of them both being injured at the same time. Let's hope Origi can step up to the plate when this happens. However I don't think we should or will purchase anyone else as cover. It is a slight concern I though. Excuse my ignorance but other than Sinclair what strikers do we have in the under 18/reserves?

I'd say all of
Origi. Firmino. Or even Ibe could play up front if we had both Sturridge and Benteke injured. The options are there in my opinion.
