      Klopp has a knack for signing high quality players for reasonable fees and getting the most out of the youth at the club.  Beyond what he's done here, you can find examples of this from his Dortmund days -- Hummels, Lewi, Reus, Sahin, Goetz, etc. 

      Both Klopp and the owners have earned our faith with the results and trophies from the last couple seasons.  Need to just relax and let them do their thing.

      It happens too often to just all be about having an eye for a player though. Ultimately I think he's an excellent coach. I will never believe that had Rodgers stayed on and we'd bought exactly the same players at exactly the same time that he could have achieved what Klopp has, so I think we are buying players at their fair value and then Klopp is developing them to such an extent that they look like bargains with hindsight.

      German publications saying we are talking with Schalke about Turkish central defender Ozan Kabak. Seems like it may have a little more credibility, given the sources.

      After I posted that I saw Schalke just bought him a season ago. I suspect we will be looking for free transfers.

      Free agents. Anyone on that list that looks like a realistic target?

      Can't tempt you with a free Gotze?

      Personally I reckon we should re-sign Ibe and let Edwards sell him for £15m again next year.

      Sarr and Fraser make sense IMO.... Especially Sarr. Fraser can fill into the Shaq role

      F**k Ryan Fraser.

      Lad couldn't even be arsed to help his team out in the middle of a relegation battle.

      Wouldn't mind Verthongen for a year or two in place of Lovren. Only hurdle would be his wages I think, could imagine he'd be after one big payday before he hangs up his boots

      There is talk of Ake being sold at a cut price. I honestly believe under Klopp and week in week out with big Virgil he could become even better.

      This.

      There is a good chance they would have stayed up if he had done the honourable thing and extended his contract for a month.

      Klopp would never bring a player with his attitude here.

      Ake will go to City of back to Chelsea.

      I prefer Joe next to Virg anyway.

      We need a backup CB who won't mind sitting on the bench until he gets his opportunity.

      He’s 33 and no longer first choice in a sh*t Spurs side. He’s being replaced by Dier the donkey in a makeshift CB role. No thanks.

      He'd be our 4th choice centre back. Would certainly be a step up from Lovren, not like he'd be playing every week is it

      Yes I do think we have the best option in Joe being beside Virgil. Was just thinking Ake also in terms of they play in the Dutch national side.  A young CB from Shalke 04 called Ozan Kabak has been mentioned who may wait his turn.  I havnt seen him play yet so dont know enough about him to comment.

      Anyone think there's any chance of a player being revealed at the same time as the new kit?

      If you were Nike you'd probably want a nice shiny new signing to help sell a few shirts.

      Vertonghen would be a good addition IMO. He might not be a world class CB but he has skills and experience and I don't think he would mind being behind Gomez and Matip. I think he's more reliable than Lovren, so we would have improved the squad.

      We won't be signing any 33 year old players mate get real.

      We only extended Milly's contract because the man is a physical freak.

      Can't see why we wouldn't sign him on a short term deal if his wages aren't too high, he'd be coming on a bosman so we wouldn't have to pay a fee for him. We paid about £5M for a 31 y/o Ragnar Klavan a few years ago to do a similar job
