I think there will be room for Markovic as I think that Brendan wants to continue playing 3-4-3/3-4-1-2. Obviously that formation will have to change from time to time depending on fitness and opposition but all in all there should be room. Clyne and Moreno would be the first choice wingbacks with Markovic starting from time to time on the right instead.
Cant see us going hard at Clyne to play him as a wingback, think we will be going back to a back 4

An upgrade in goal is something that can be looked at but it's not a weak spot. Migs is very good but we could get better. Right now though we have far more pressing concerns elsewhere in the squad so Mignolet is safe for now. Im happy with him, his last half of the season was very good.

As for formations. What about the old classic 4-2-3-1

------------Mignolet
Clyne--Skrtel--Sakho--Moreno
--------Can---Henderson------
Milner-----Firmino-----Coutino
-----------Sturridge------------

Bogdan, Lovren, Flanagan, Lucas, Lallana, Ibe, Bacca

Squad depth, Toure, Markovic, Allen, Origi, Ings, Enrique, Ilori, Ward.

Bacca and Clyne I have named as names we have been linked to in positions we desperately need. So instead of just putting New RB and new Striker. I have just put names down to pad out the squad. Clyne looks close. No idea on Bacca though.
Been linked with Rondon as well and Kovacic as well... Starting to look semi decent and building a squad that'll be able to handle Europa League.

I'd probably have Firmino out wide and Coutinho through the middle, we've tried Coutinho out wide before and it hasn't worked. He play's his best through the middle.

however, i hate highlight clips featuring music
Would give extra likes for this.

I get pumped for whatever awesome sports video I'm going to watch and then enter shitty music. Just want to somehow warp through YouTube all the way back to the creator and unleash some American History X gutter scene on them.

CD!

So good to see you my man. Welcome back! Glad to hear things are ok with your Dad. We were all thinking of you whilst you were away.

Excellent timing for your return as this transfer window so far is going quite swimmingly.
Thanks jod, yeah he's alright now, my dad's heart basically stopped beating twice, first time 20 secs 2nd time 16, bit of a miracle he's still here.

Had 3 blocked arteries, two was blocked 98%, yet the GP was telling him he had no blockage anywhere and he was probably gonna be alright......... despite him constantly having heart pains. People like that don't deserve to be in their profession

Not sure we're going swimmingly until we buy a decent striker however ;)

Careful ADL9798

We've just signed Firmino. This kinda talk on my boy Emre.

Well my dick cant get any harder so...

First sentence I was like yeah, yeah. Also discounting his even better record in the last 2 years rather than his entire time at Hoppenheim.

But I lost it at the second sentence lolle.

Can someone tell me a bit about Clyne? Has he performed consistently over a couple of seasons or are we buying him based off of one good season/half season like Lovren?

He's good! Been good for a while but always flew under the radar for some reason (probably coz of other more hyped names in the back 4). Considering the prices of full backs nowadays 12.5 mil is okay, especially when he's English

Loads of pace and runs up and down all day, decent on the ball without being great

Wow wtf. Similar thing happened to my old man two months back as well. Heart specialist kept saying it was fine until eventually he went to someone else and they got him in for a triple bypass the next day as his arteries were that ******. He never got as bad as that though thankfully... Good to hear your dad's doing well now though.

You just needed to say that he scored a nice goal against us at Anfield last season! :p

Thank goodness your old man's fine, now I finally understand how bad GPs are in this country, better off just going straight to the hospital or something. And Abbott wanted us to pay money to visit these crooks...

Lol yeah was a good goal, but everyone scores against us nowadays, even N'Zonzi...

He did score off that pretty sweet strike against some club last season from like 30 yards though, so he has that in him

And if I dare to be mischievous, I'd say he's a very good full back in a Klopp side ;)

"For Liverpool to have Coutinho and Firmino is a big achievement for them. It is going to give them one of the most exciting midfields in Europe," said Ronaldinho.
"The creativity, intelligence, and goals they have between them can change Liverpool as a team. It is a big sign of intent. To have a midfield with those two gives them a big chance to qualify for the Champions League next season.

"It is a dream for the Liverpool strikers to have that sort of service. If you can't score goals in a team with Coutinho and Firmino in midfield then you won't score goals in any team. They will create so many chances."


If the above quotes doesn't make anyone optimistic about next season nothing will.

Club is clearly trying to move to kill the negative pr the season gone by brought us, abd please the fans by doing early business....

It's going well so far but ultimately it will be no better then the last few windows without a quality striker and prob central mid

Haven't seen heaps of clyne so not sure what standard he is at though
