David Alaba in Jan please…
Even Slabhead?
You make a good point. Not Slabhead.
If ever we were going to go big on a defender in January (cos we’ve never done that before, eh?) it’s got to be now.
Let’s say we’re prepared to spend £50m-60m on a CB this January. Who do you go for? I know the usual names will be mentioned of Koulibaly, Upamecano, Skriniar etc but I’d be seriously minded to offer that for Fofana. He looks quality.
I actually don’t see the point in going for someone makeshift, I’d rather go with Williams and Phillips in that scenario.
It would be a shame if the plagues of the apocalypse started and null and voided this season wouldn’t it,the way this year is going i personally wouldn’t rule it out.
Garay was a good player. He’s 34 and must be slow as fuck now but we could just drop the line a bit deeper.
He was the best of that free agent list posted here a little while ago.
Now that Ryan Shotton has signed for Leek Town the options are limited.

I’d be happy with Fofana or Upamecano. Unrealistic one would be De Ligt, whilst Ive said a few times, think Alaba would be a good one, probably more like £20m than £50m-60m

I was reading on twitter for my sins but apparantly this summer we asked Fofana to wait a year and he didn’t and signed for Leicester.
Depending on how serious Gomez injury is we may need two CB’s in January, Ajer and Upamecano.
The rate we go through them, we might have to by in bulk. Maybe a six pack of centre half’s!
You mean one with a six pack?

If Jurgen was prepared to utilise Lucas Leiva at CB when he was here…
We shouldn’t be surprised if he hasn’t already started to hone Robertson or Tmiskas for left CB against teams that don’t have a target man in their ranks that can win headers (Leicester)…
Any Liverpool fan with a ‘dicky heart’ needs to stock up on their tablets for this seasons ‘helter skelter’ ride… In fact, me thinks we all gonna need them from here-on-in…!
COYR… Make some more memories for us… we can retain this title…
Someone will marry us in January.
God help us, if there is one.
The position of centre half has become a poisoned chalice at Liverpool. Who is going to sign for us knowing that at some point, they are going to suffer a career threatening injury?
PS. Before anybody on here gets arsey with me, I’m saying it with a rather large tongue in cheek.
Should wait until an official club statement.
If Joe is out for longer than end of the year we should definitely buy in January IMO.
I don’t think Klopp will buy anyone,just to piss us off.
De Ligt, oh wait, bit late…
Can’t believe I am saying this but I wish we had not sold Lovren. Gomez down injured now - who have we left at CB? If Matip also goes down, we are done!
The fact that Matip is injured most of the time, and Billy being a couple of years off first team standard, leaves us with two centre backs and a converted midfielder. If VVD were to get a knock in training (God forbid!), we’d be screwed. It’s a long season and it’s a risky policy not to strengthen in that area imho.
Told you so, except for the in training part, and I didn’t foresee Fab, Joe and VVD all being out at the same time.
We should never have let Lucas Leiva go,massive mistake.
