Ed’s, I know you have mentioned about Keita not impressing overly and an expensive mistake I believe was said.

Do you think he could leave this summer?

Personally not convinced by him, I do think he has shown flashes, but it often seems like he doesn’t suit the style, he drives forward and plays a risky pass every time, even if it’s not on. I know he has played so little he needs to learn the runs and develop the chemistry a little more but I don’t see him getting there. His shots also seem wayward and weak for a player who gets chances around the edge of the box.

He s finally getting a run of games together. He hasn't been terrible. YES he needs some work defensively but he's done a lot of good things on the ball and has done some really really good pressing things. He should be fine as long as he stays fit and continues to work hard at is faults. Like all players in the squad.

If he can stay clear of injuries and works hard I have every faith he 'll be a top player for us.

Injuries are my biggest fear with him. Ability wise he is very talented. He just needs more time on the training ground and less time in the treatment room.

He’s not terrible at all, he's composed on the ball and does look to create.

Yes he does all that Firmane but it's the other side of his game that he really needs to improve on.

Doesn’t look fit enough for me. Has one good game then goes missing again for another 4 games. Am very disappointed after look the effort and expense we put in to get him.

Haven't seen enough in the 2 seasons here to convince me he will be a regular starter in that midfield.

Paul Joyce reporting Zenit are interested in signing Dejan Lovren.

Hi Ed's and Reds, Just wondered if there is any interest in Jamal Lewis? Desperate need for some left sided backup, he fits the brief and looks like he has the same raw qualities that bought Robertson attention. With Norwich now down, fee must be a good price. Seems like a good prospect and I'm not sure anyone in the reserves is ready to step up. Thoughts?

{Ed002's Note - There is interest in him from elsewhere, but not from Liverpool at this time.}

Who would you like to see come in as competition IF we decide we need someone at LB?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I don't see why the younger players already at the club (Larouci and Lewis) could not be given the opportunity. Else the club need to look for someone under 21 and who will become Home Grown - otherwise a valuable squad place gets taken up. Juan Castillo (LB) Young, quick, Home Grown and could be available - would be good cover. Spending a significant of money on Jamal Lewis to sit on the bench most of the time makes no sense.}

Lewis has said he expects to go out loan next season having missed a lot of this season due to injuries. Larouci clearly is not ready, and evident from Klopp playing Williams, a RB, at LB instead of Larouci. A versatile player is needed to cover the LB/ CB position IMO.

Joe Gomez maybe? Hense why Klopp is looking at a first choice CB.

It wouldn't be my pick, but may be in klopps thoughts.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Jul 2020 18:52:16
I think Klopp aims to have Williams to cover both hence the experiment the other night.
As for CB I think Lovren will go with another brought in, that would leave 4 cbs and fab as emergency cover. I think C.V. will put an end to the lad from Sevilla so no idea who else we would look to.

Agree0 Disagree0

Well rumours of Lewis going out on loan to Blackpool, hopefully a fully pre-season etc can help Larouci make that step up.

I’m hearing we’re looking at a straight swap with Ox for Rice at West Ham. Covers midfield and centre back for us and they want more of a goal threat in midfield so suits both parties. Let’s us sell Lovren, then all we need is a back up left back and a forward.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Jul 2020 21:05:00
Dont we need goals from midfield?

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Jul 2020 21:22:55
Ox has only signed a new contract. Be a strange one if we now go and swap him for Rice.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - No such thing is going to happen.}
