Thiago will undergo medical today, after #LFC agreed a deal worth around Ā£26m with Bayern. He has accepted terms on a 4 year contract - fee is Ā£20m down, with Ā£5-6m depending on add-ons. Will wear no 6. Player could make his debutā€¦in the EFL Cup at Lincoln next Thursday!!!

Is that for real?

My thoughts tactically have been the same since start of July;

Looking yesterday after the changes its a bit more like the midfield I was thinking we could gravitate to if we do bring in Thiago. Wijnaldum seemed a lot more deeper and reserved than Keita/Jones. It was almost like a double pivot with Henderson with a CAM in front. Maybe I was just seeing what I wanted to see but didnā€™t seem as much difference between the 6 and the ā€œdefensiveā€ 8 as usual and the ā€œoffensiveā€ 8 seemed more free than usual. A double pivot CM with Thiago (playmaker option), Fabinho (defensive option), Keita (offensive option), Henderson and Wijnaldum (tactically balanced options) seems real promising. Milner as emergency cover, Fabinho also as a CB option, Keita also in contention for the CAM position with Jones and Ox. Can see it making sense and more like what Klopp had at Dortmund more I think of it. Attack would be free to set up in 433, 4231 or 4222 as well with that midfield base.

Regular font size will his name fit on my Jersey? I hope so :innocent:

Is this our biggest ever signing in Premier League history?

I felt like dog shit when I woke up today. But now I feel ace! Thanks LFC :smile: :+1:t2:

I doubt we would even see him that soon, could be a few more game weeks. Then again, maybe he is a Van Dijk type of player. Plug in and go, in which case, Lincoln would be a excellent lithmus test.

@Mascot Youā€™re hard to please :wink: Thrilled by this signing. Iā€™d love Wijnaldum to sign a new contract too. I wonder if he will?
