      Hopefully he will be back to his peak by the Christmas period.

      On present 'stats' you'd have to think Coutinho might be the one with most to fear in terms of a starting place. And yes I am being serious.

      As it is, with so many games coming up, there will be injuries/rotation.
      I don't think Coutinho will have anything to fear. He should be accomodated. It's probably Can or Hendo or Gini that needs to worry. Lallana is strong in the centre so we don't need both Can and Hendo at the same time. Klopp seems to like Ox and I think he will link up well with Lallana. Lallana, Coutinho and Ox would be better than Lallana, Can and Ox.. etc.. same applies from switching Can with Gini or Hendo.. this is based on Lallana picking up balls in the centre and Ox dropping deep at times, Coutinho would get a free role to work his magic. With a roaming Coutinho it would help out our entire front three. Our lesser quality defence would be boosted from holding the ball up.

      Radical - agree it would be an interesting mix but would the gaffer try it.  Either way we've at least got two first team midfields now. Not forgetting the likes of Milner. Grujic and Keita to come.

      Seems an improvement on Jay Spearing, Kevin Stewart, Jordon Ibe who were pretty nailed on 2nd team choices not so long ago.

      Don't forget Klopp seems to think midfield is the best position for Ben Woodburn as well.
