He can rotate with any of them or play as the most advanced AM just behind them I'd assume. On the last game of the season Klopp reverted to his favoured formation 4 2 3 1. That would allow Mane, Fekir and Salah to all start behind Firmino Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He doesn't need to replace any of them. The lack of depth in those positions is there for all to see. As MadLad said I'm sure you could fit the four of them in some games too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spike 1,726 Posted May 19, 2018 I reckon he will be cover for Firmino throught the middle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So Liverpool need depth, but not cover? BTW he isn't a winger, refuses to play out wide for Lyon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We don't play with wingers, our full backs provide the width. The front three basically drift and interchange positions. Firmino often comes deep allowing Salah and Mane to come central.

Maybe he'd be more willing at Liverpool though. All I'm saying is that you're getting a player more like Firmino than the other two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Palace Fan 1,498 Posted May 24, 2018 This has popped up on Sky again. Am I the only that thinks Liverpool don't need him and he could benefit staying put? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lots of reliable Merseyside sports journos have said we're going to move for him after the final. I haven't seen much of him at all, so I don't know if we need him or not. However if Klopp wants him as a high priority target - like Mane, Salah, VvD - then I want him too. All of the players he's prioritised have been massive signings to us that have made a real impact, he's done enough to where I trust him. I'm sure he could stick around at Lyon and remain great. His stats from the season are fantastic and Ligue 1 having sides that can beat PSG would be nice for the French fans. But if Klopp wants him, I want him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True Blue 587 Posted May 25, 2018 Excellent player, could do well with the strike force at Liverpool (If Salah isn't sold ). Also depending on how he adapts to the Premierleague. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rick 687 Posted May 25, 2018 My penis is hard. That front 4 with Keita and.......Henderson behind them. We need another CM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UNORTHODOX 91 Posted May 25, 2018 (edited) Very nice indeed, although he could play in midfield he will offer some much needed depth to our front 3 as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rick 687 Posted May 28, 2018 If we had won on Saturday would that be the case? I'm not so sure. Best off staying at Lyon if you need 'convinced' to move to Liverpool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
