Lovren&sakho looking like they can be good partnership really impressed with them lately. they were superb last night I think if it wasn't for them it could of been much closer. Clyne struggled big time not just the penalty. Get rid of skittles"llori and fetch in subotic ( spelling) and a dominant keeper (begovic) and with the rest of the squad I really don't think we're far off being a real force. What you think eds?

{Ed001's Note - not sure why we need Subotic.}

Agree1 Disagree8

We need subotic because Lovren&sakho fitness records are not the best and we need people with class who can slot right in.

{Ed001's Note - I seem to remember Subotic having a few injury problems and he is far from top class.}

18 Mar 2016 19:23:57
Most players get injured that's why we need cover. What world clas defender would you like to c come in then ed001 wich you think we would be able to sign?

{Ed001's Note - we have signed Matip. Perhaps we would be better off just giving Toure one more year and waiting to see how Matip gets on?}

18 Mar 2016 19:24:21
Ed1 with Matip coming in next season and Lovren and Sakho, who do you think will be our fourth CB next year? With Kolo out of contract, do you see Skrtel staying?

{Ed001's Note - that seems very likely, sadly. I would rather we sold him and gave Toure one more year, but it does seem to be the plan to let Toure leave and Skrtel is unlikely to sell.}

18 Mar 2016 20:09:30
Saddening to see people abusing Skrtel who by far was brilliant under Klopp and haven't featured in months.

{Ed001's Note - who is abusing him? And he has never been brilliant. Apart from in terms of his ability to get an ridiculously high and undeserved wage by throwing his toys out of his pram when he wasn't sold by the club.}

18 Mar 2016 20:25:01
we look far better of without him, at least lovren and sakho know what each other is doing, I would have him as 4th choice behind toure, personally I would sell him in the summer esp as matip is coming.

18 Mar 2016 21:27:59
Begovic is not a good keeper and if we are looking we should aim our sights higher than a player who wrote his career off at 27 to sit on Chelsea's bench and who has already said in the not so distant past that he had NO interest in being our number one keeper.

18 Mar 2016 21:28:24
Subotic has been plagued by injuries over the past two seasons and has struggled with form, and been a peripheral figure at Dortmund, and in no way is he an improvement over Skrtel.

If Lovren and Sakho can stay fit and continue their recent form, Skrtel will struggle to get back in the team.

Matip will be replacing Toure in the summer, in the squad IMO.

18 Mar 2016 21:30:06
Hi Ed. Would you not say skrtel is likely to leave. I mean he is effectively fourth choice now with toure being the preferred bench option wince skrtel returned. With matip coming in skrtel will still be fourth choice. Personally I would like to see skrtel toure wisdom illori moved on with Lucas and Gomez able to deputise capably if needed.

{Ed002's Note - Skrtel is injured, Toure is cover. Gomez is far from useable as a centre back. This makes zippo sense.}

18 Mar 2016 21:34:34
I think we've looked better without Skrtel and while he has value, move him on. Matip, Ilori and if need be Toure (if we extended his contract) can cover. That's hardly abusive towards Skrtel and that's the attitude many people have I feel.

{Ed002's Note - Ilori has done a couple of league cup games - it seems idiocy to throw out others ahead of him.}

18 Mar 2016 22:04:55
id keep ilori and as for kolo for one more year as cover? nah lucas is better bet.

19 Mar 2016 01:10:10
Could Lucas be the 4 choice cb.

19 Mar 2016 02:44:20
Skrtel is an experienced option in case Matip struggles and either Lovren or Sakho get injured. Matip and Sakho with Lovren and Skrtel challenging and Lucas/ Illori backing up is a very strong set of CBs (maybe one too many but given injury record of some of these better to be safe than sorry)

18 Mar 2016 23:16:37
Ed002, Ilori would be what behind Matip, Lovren, Sakho, Lucas and Toure (if he stays in this scenario)? The only person he moves ahead of is Skrtel who is effectively replaced by Matip. I don't think it's too far-fetched, if Toure moves on and Skrtel stays Ilori would still be cover for injury/ cup games behind 5 other players.

This is assuming Wisdom moves on and I still don't know where Gomez would play.

{Ed002's Note - Skrtel is not replaced by Matip. Toure is not staying. Ilori has no future with Liverpool and Gomez is not ready to play CB at this level and will continue as a LB.}
