      trent is 3 weeks max, which should only be 3-4 games, 2 of which are the semi final, possibly the FA cup game too.

      Robbo and kostas back early feb.

      just need to get thru the next month.

      With Salah closing to renew according to the reports, I don't think we are buying any forward next summer unless we sell some of our forwards which is looking very unlikely. I would love to steal Olise from United but we legit have no space unless we sell one of our forwards.

      If Mo signs a new contract there is no need to sign someone and then keep developing Doak and Gordan

      I'm not so sure.

      I'd like someone more experienced for that right side as I think Mo can play further inside the longer his career goes with us. Also can play through the middle as well.

      Arguement sake you sell Diaz and buy someone like Olise? I think that gives us better balance in those front three positions.

      I think Diaz can cover those three roles as well - looked good at the weekend - Diaz will recover his form , it’s been a nightmare time for him. He is far better than Olise

      The question for management is how much can Mo be sold for and whether a cheaper and equally effective purchase like Robbo and Endo can be found for the winger/forward position, vis-à-vis the cost of him renewing his contact.

      Why would they be even thinking of selling him

      Possibly mate.

      Although he'd more natural from the left and we have Nunez, Gakpo and Jota who also more comfortable either central or from the left.

      Ideal world I'd like another more senior player this summer who plays from the right side and lessen that need to play Mo every game or allow us to move Mo as well.

      Even more ideal world is Doak or Gordon is that guy.

      I don’t see Mo being sat on the bench much regardless- he is a machine , no different to the likes of Ronaldo and Messi - he will just keep going.

      He could break a leg next game though so I think the need is still there. If there is a small gap in our attack is that natural fit for the left if and when Mo isn't there.

      More overloaded on the left side.

      The issue is getting someone in who will be ok to be sitting there knowing that Mo will play week in week out - but it’s an area that will need looking at in the coming years

      It's why personally I wouldn't be against sacrificing one of or other forwards to bring in someone who could play right and central.

      That’s where Diaz imo can come in - he showed he can play right and I think we may see him there

      Leaving aside any squad-building conversations, I think Michael Olise is class, and on that basis alone would love him at LFC and then trust Klopp to make good use of him.

      I don't think Klopp will sell any of the 1st team squad to bring in someone else; I don't think that is something that he does. When he brings in a player he generally trusts them throughout their contract, he appears to have strong principles around signing contracts.
      A few of the players he inherited were sold.
      Some players have decided to leave ( Phil, Hendo, Fabinho) and he does not force them to stay.
      A lot of players have run down their contract and left.
      A few of the younger players he signed have been sold as they are not good enough to progress to the first team. But I think those players were happy to go to get 1st team football.
      The only player that he bought as a starter that has been sold (that I can think of) is Karius.

      I agree with your point, our main 5 forwards do all favour the left or centre except Mo. But I think it's very unlikely that Klopp will sell Diaz, Joto, any of them to generate funds to buy Olise or any other right sided player (unless they ask to leave)

      More I see how we are doing, I see no point in bringing anyone in now

      We got a rb to cover for Trent and it makes no sense getting a lb on when two are back soon

      And we are doing fine for cb

      By mid feb we will have our starting team at its best so the lads just need to step up

      In the summer keeping mo is important, one more season at least and hopefully another attacker next year steps up a level which will make the inevitable replacement of Mo seem seamless when the time is right

      Still would like to see us finish the midfield re build in the summer

      Thiago will go as will Matip, then a decision needs to be made

      Do we sign a new rb and move Trent to midfield ? I am more inclined for this move or we buy a cm as I think we are one short with how intense we play

      Also do we get a new cb because with everyone fit we do actually have 4 cbs

      My view is we get a rb and convert Trent to a cm and that may possibly be us done for the summer

      From the last couple of games, he's looked better and seems to be more involved once he comes over to the right... I'd play him there the next few games while Salah is away and see how it goes...

      Usually I'd be saying we need cover here and there but really our problems are short term and unless there's a player who's going to be signed because they are class and will make us a better team now and in the future I think its just a case of hope the squad can cope this next 4-6 weeks.

      This period is going to be a real slog I can just tell. Bournemouth away is tricky but then Arsenal and Chelsea that looks really hard for the current squad.

      I thought he was at Crystal Palace.

      Don't tell me you mean, he's being courted by those Manc cu*ts?

      Now there's an idea.

      Superb footballer and looks like he'd fit with Jürgens style like a glove.
