Brilliant this. Heard its loan with option to buy.
I think Fabinho continues as CB, with one of ben davis or kabak featuring along side him when matip aint fit.
Great that our immediate vulnerability is addressed.
Hendo is needed at CM along with Alcantara and wijnaldum.
Now just want Jota back and we are looking solid.

Personally, I don’t think Hendo is going anywhere yet.
Kabak likely to be eased in on the right, but the idea that we’re going to play anything other than Fab and Hendo against City is fanciful.

Alternately let him put a fair, but robust challenge in on Richsnarlison, putting the platinum blonde out on his arse for stint.

I think we have another 19 games minimum (17 in league and minimum 2 in UCL). I can seen him get atleast 5-7 games, probably to see how he copes.
Its all upto him , if he grabs it, he may be a regular partner with Fabinho.
Personally, i want the mid of Hendo, Alcantara and Wijnaldum.
That mid as a perfect balance of leadership, energy and brilliance.
Lets hope for the best.
Glad that we bought 2 CBs.

To be fair as pointed out above 15 yellow cards in 3 seasons.
It’s not particularly hot headed sounding, the spitting incident in fact sounds more like an anomaly.

his statement was the camera angle indicated malice. Only he knows if he meant it.
Im sure klopp is aware of it.
Lets give him the benefit of the doubt.

People do stuff in the heat of the moment, he is young and hopefully he has learnt. If he hasn’t he won’t be here for long.

Nat or Kabak

No doubt about Kabaks quality but I’m struggling to see many starts for him this season.

Where are they getting the 30 mil Euro? GBP 18 mil is 20.4 Euro.
I suspect these moves have been made so Klopp can utilise Hendo and Fab in the middle of the park again. Which moves Kabak into contention to start most games (after a short bedding in period).

I don’t think Davies or Kabak will feature more than some late cameos during February. It will be mostly Fabinho, Henderson and Nat. However, they (Davies & Kabak) will feature more prominently and regularly from March onwards.

Seems a bit strange for '04 to off load one of their best players, given that they’re fighting relegation, doesn’t it?
Form changes quickly, I doubt even Klopp has already decided the pecking order. Hopefully those two CB’s will allow us to play Hendo/Fabinho back in midfield a bit more. Otherwise we wouldn’t really need all this.

Kabak is a non-homegrown player.
As far as I know we didn‘t sell or lean out any of our non-homegrown players.
That would mean we can not list one player in that group.
Who will be the unlucky one?
Big Virg?
No chance.
Kabak would only have to look at the crooked-nosed sniffer to get a red card and be labelled the worst thug the game has ever seen
Kabak is u21 and don’t need to be listed I think?!
Gomez, Klopp ruled him out for the season just the other day.
Out of the 2 cbs coming in, one is 20 and needs a bit of seasoning by all accounts, and one is 25 and has already been well salted in lower leagues.
I would expect we will see Davies bed in before Kabak out of our new 2 cbs, but who knows.
