People's criticism of Liverpool's defence is misguided at best.
I suppose we'll find out after the City match.

Thats still not a squad that can win the Premier League. Weak in goal, weak at LB, no third CB unless Gomez steps up.
You can tell yourself that. They can win the PL with their current squad let alone adding a top CB, Lemar and Keita.

Tell me that when you guys finish fourth in May.
Dominic King is reliable.
Don't think anyone that signed the first two players would be finishing fourth.
Probably should've been more specific in that comment. Meant to say for the 3-4-3, I don't think that is a formation that comes naturally to Wenger. I think we can also see that from his back 3 selections, they just don't make sense, and playing Bellerin at LWB. It just seems like Wenger is just playing the copycat role in switching to the 3-4-3 and not actually don't what is best for his personnel.
I don't think Wenger can make Ox excel at wing-back, but Conte has shown he can develop wing-backs like crazy. Did it in Italy and he's done that with Alonso and Moses.
Schick to Roma apparently done. 5m euro loan then 33m purchase, which makes him Roma's most expensive acquisition ever and the second highest Czech player sale ever (after Nedved).
Thanks for the info.. as a Czech, I'd like to see him somewhere where he'll get lots of playing time. I feel as if Roma is the best option for him in that case. At least based on the teams chasing him.. I heard Tottenham was interested, wish that would work out!! But I doubt it haha
No want or need for Sanches.
Coutinho will stay this year and then Keita steps in for him next summer.
And yes I will eat partial crow if they pull this off. They still need a CM and a CB though.
Sanches is not good. He has no brain. I'm not loaning in a player to develop him from a nothing team, when he is too raw to contribute yet. Also Pearce said they aren't interested.
Ooof feel bad for the RedBull players. Not sure how Naby is going to perform now knowing he is getting his dream move for next summer.
And the same for Phil when he moves to Barca next summer.
Teams should realize this, why deal with unhappy players.
He's going to perform like it's a World Cup year.
Too many things I don't understand
1) Why would RBL keep a player a full season knowing he wanted out all summer and knowing he'll be leaving at the end of the season?
2) Why would Liverpool want to sign Lemar AND Keita while still not allowing Coutinho to leave?
3) Why Barca didn't go hard after Keita once they realized they were wasting their time with Coutinho and Liverpool? Or Lemar when it's known he's available?
4) Why Monaco are doing a firesale of their best players after a terrific start to the season? Do they have enough time to replace Lemar? Is Fabinho next? I'm a little disappointed their team was dismantled so fast.
5) WTF is going on with Arsenal? Why are Sanchez and Ozil still in this mess? They should ask for a transfer now.
I like this Liverpool group, and it's well designed for Klopp's football. I think they'll be a very uncomfortable opponent for just about any top team in the CL, and I wouldn't be shocked if they were making an Early-Klopp-at-BVB-type deep cinderella run. They'll probably lose too many points in the league against non-top clubs to challenge hard, but I could see them doing some significant damage in the CL.
