Good debate. Cheers for your input.
Let's ignore that we're scoring goals for fun and working on signing DMs.

We can score as many as we like but means nothing if we're shipping them at the other end. Gomez and Matip are finished and not of the quality we need. A CB should have been signed weeks ago.
As for the DM position, we've ignored the likes of Thuram, Kone and Palhinha whilst baulkimg at Lavia's asking price. It's also looking like we've submitted a low-ball offer for Andre.
Yes it's looking really positive 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Window started well but it seems that we blew our budget on 2 players which was fine as it kept our midfield competitive. Then we decide to take the money and remove our 2 DM's and the solution is a 19 year old who's backup is a 18 year old.
It's down to Klopp again to work miracles. Wish he was more vocal but that's not his style. Instead we are crash coursing Curtis Jones into DM. Curtis who used to be a forward.

Well we're mostly scoring more than the opposition but yes it does need addressing. But like I say, we are working on it and Klopp knows it needs addressing, unlike this time last year when he said we had enough in the squad.

He hasn't really. Instead he told us to be grateful that the midfield he said was perfect last summer has been sold and this is what we want.
Money was always going to be the issue, selling Fabinho and Henderson was sensible considering their age and performances but you can't replace those two with only 50m for the pair.
I don't think Lavia is the answer either, really need a guy in his prime as a defensive midfielder.
Still think Liverpool need 4 players minimum and 5 preferably and the signs are it will be 2 max.
2 high energy defensive midfield types, a RB, a CF and a CB.
A deal could be done for Cancelo for a reasonable price and what a buy he would be, which would allow for using Trent in midfield on occasion.

Move a right back who's great on the ball but can't defend into midfield and replace him with a right who...
Oh wait

FFS you've got Dalot and AWB and you're having a dig at having Cancelo at RB.
So who else has bid for caicedo?
I am certain if we got him we would challenge as long as vvd and konate are for all season. I highly.doubt we have bid for him though

You're a United fan rubbishing the idea of having Cancelo at RB, that's what they have to do with this
FSG have been doing the bare minimum for years, hence we finally wound up losing our CL spot. This summers lack of progress rebuilding the team is just a continuation of that policy. FSG Can’t or won’t put enough money into new signings. They have been bailed out time and time again by Klopp who must be getting fed up with the lack of support.

I wasn't. I'd take Cancelo in a heartbeat but you're suggesting replacing TAA with the RB who is probably more similar to him than any other RB in football.

Not anymore for Arsenal. Kronke is splashing the cash while we are continually restricted. Klopp is given a budget which is stuck in 2010 with the one exception which was the Coutinho money that was spent well back in 2018.
real lack of perspective round here.
bayern were our first actual decent preseason kick about. it was largely competitive and they had two offside goals. the lines were running their the ball nothing thr last man and both would be ruled out.
Szoboszlai was a big signing and really excellent.
macallister was decent.
we ain't winning the leavue bit we have seen a lot of positives in the forwards all preseason.
just lower your expectations and you'll be fine.

Absolutely spot on. Top reds will still ignore the facts and defend FSG though.
The squad is threadbare and I don’t see FSG providing the funds to build a title challenging squad anytime soon.

We shouldn't have to lower our expectations though. If FSG did their job then we would have sorted out our issues within the squad and completed the rebuild.
