A Q for Ed1 if you have time. I don’t frequent the page so much these days so if you’ve already addressed this please just delete my post. Just wondering what you would do with Trent and Conor when both fit? What do you foresee Jurgen doing when Trent is fit again, dropping Conor to the bench or moving Trent to MF? Thanks.

{Ed001's Note - for me I would move Trent into midfield. Judging by the way Klopp started pre-season, until Bradley's injury, that is the way he wants to go as well.}

ed1 - what's diagnosis for Trent? due back in a few weeks?
amazing depth in the team that we can still field a midfield of Endo, Macca, gravenberch and Elliot even with all the current injuries.

{Ed001's Note - pencilled in for the 10th of March to return. Not sure how firm a date that is though.}

Just curious Ed, have we sorted our medical department yet? I remember long time ago that we are still trying to fix our medical team after few peoples left.

{Ed001's Note - it seems to have been sorted via internal promotions mostly. I would expect it is probably going to be re-examined after Klopp goes though.}

Ed001 if everyone is fit what would be your midfield 3 be for me Jones and Sobs have to start so that Mac Allister Trent and Endo fighting for the Dm spot. I think the options of Trent in midfield and right back gives us more strength in depth am not one of the Trent can’t defend troop I just think his defensive job becomes so much harder when he plays that stupid inverted role. I think if he is going to do it then doing it from a sweeper role keeps our defensive shape much better. But all in all Ed if Trent does play right back I would much rather see him play how he did before getting crosses into the box.

{Ed001's Note - if all are fit, my midfield 3 would be Szobo, Jones and Trent.}

Klopp would definitely choose Mac as one of the 3. He is the one who senses the game best and adapts to what is needed.

I'm assuming you have a 4-3-3 in mind, Ed001, so who would you place as the holding midfielder within Szoboszlai, Jones and TAA?

{Ed001's Note - Trent. I think that is the ideal role for him. I know it was only a couple of halves of football that he played there in pre-season, but he looked perfect there.}

Tough shout leaving out McAllister Ed. I think he has had a great season, very disciplined playing DM for the majority of the first half of the season, which is not his best role. Has been able to push more forward of late and made some great passes.

I would love for Trent to be the long term no6. His vision and passing from deep would be a real weapon against any team. My only concern would be his positional sense. When I have watched the very small sample size of him playing the no6 position, we are generally dominating the game. It would be interesting to see how well he does when we are under pressure from the opposition, as reading the game defensively is vital in a lone 6 role.

ED01, Macca and Endo start for me. Just my take.

On another note Ed01, maybe you can help me here. So had we signed Caicedo, how were we going to set up with him in the midfield? Would it have been in a double pivot like Endo and Maca is right now for ex.? Or would Caicedo have been the lone DM with Szobo and Macca either side of him? Cheers, man.

{Ed001's Note - Caicedo was to sit, he would have taken the Endo role.}

Eds, & with Szobo and Macca either side of Caicedo like it used to be with Hendo and Gini either side of Fabinho?

{Ed001's Note - similar yes.}

With Trent in there, who else gets into your midfield?
