Boy have we strayed off topic
I'm still hopeful that behind the scenes, deals are being worked on - at the absolute minimum a 'striker for a striker' if / when Sturridge goes
I still think we should wave £40m at Roma for Allison and £70m at Monaco for Lemar this week
I don't see it happening.
This is Anfield has an article up now about what LFC might do in the final week of the window. My answer to the question is the following:
The End.
We do have some money to spent it is true, but I think Klopp intends to really work on that front four, including Ox, for the rest of the season. He'll be eager to see Keita blend in with them next season, and I think maybe another, deeper-lying, midfielder. Hopefully one who can also help us solve the bus-parking riddle with a more potent shooting-from-distance weapon. He'll also be looking at right back to some degree, waiting to see if Clyne comes back (any news on that?) or if Gomez and/or TAA can develop. And he'll also be running the rule over Karius over the long-term. The only incoming I can see is a young prospect or perhaps a veteran attacker at a bargain rate just to help strengthen the bench (but even then he's probably more inclined to give Solanke and Woodburn more chances).
K78 makes a very good point that this approach has an element of risk to it because of the penalty to future recruitment if we don't qualify for the CL.
