Hey Eds,
Its pretty clear we need full backs and striking options in the summer.
With Manquillo loan extension a TBD, Johnson definitely going, Enrique perpetually injured and Moreno lacking some defensive guile, who are out targets for LB and RB this summer?

{Ed002's Note - RB: Manquillo is on a two year loan. The system the manager has been playing has seen Can played there. Wisdom will return from loan and is another option. It would not be out of the question to see Ibe used as a wing back if Rodgers persists with this approach next season. McLaughlin is another option. Stewart is another option. If Liverpool were to pay for Manquillo to leave then they may look elsewhere. Danilo was looked at but certainly won't happen. The likes of Adriano and Alves have been mentioned by agents as possible options but such players will be expensive and are unlikely to end in anything but tears. Folks, I assume because of something in the press, have been asking about Janmaat moving to Liverpool. I don't know of interest but I am pretty sure Newcastle would not want to sell.

LB: Moreno only arrived last season. McLaughlin is an option. José Enrique is only 29 so don't be writing him off. Sam Byram has been watched.}

The sad thing is that bar Moreno none of them are good enough for cl level. Wisdom has been dropped completely by west brom, manquillo looks out of his depth, Enrique is crap, can is a cm and the others are just kids.

{Ed001's Note - Wisdom was dropped for not being tall enough, no other reason. He likes his full backs to be as much in excess of 6ft as possible. Andre was never going to suit Pulis.}

Moreno just needs to improve his right foot and get some time with a good defensive coach. Un fortunately I don´t think we have one.

The problem is we don't have anyone that's "natural in the position" that's a top performer. With Johnson gone, I can see Flanno and Moreno filling the flanks in the starting 11 when fit.
With that said, with any injuries/dips in form we are screwed. Wisdom is a CB in the making, Can a CM that needs time to cement himself into that position in the side. Raheem/Ibe as full backs limit us to the 3 at the back strategy meaning we're predictable and will play down the middle as we have most of this season.
Other than a striker (Depay please!) I honestly thing these are the 2 other priority positions in the squad we need to fill, with a box-to-box midfielder thrown in on top if we have the budget.
