So we are on 3 ins and looking like the following out so far

Enrique
Toure
Rossiter
Skrtel
Yesil
Sinclair
Ibe - new rumour today

Id also imagine

Benteke
Allen
Lucas
Texiera
Bogdan
Llori

Missing anyone?

Balofkingtelli

Markovic
Luis Alberto

I'd like Allen to stay and Markovic to be assessed pre season at the very least.

A few videos of Karius on YT of course - shows some great stops, good comms with his defence, seems to like to punch rather than catch crosses and his kicking out leave a bit to be worked on. Looks brave, very very agile and can save penalties. He's apparently very ambitious so he'll be working his socks off to displace Mignolet, I would think.

He's been given the number 1 shirt too.

Doesn't seem to mean a lot at LFC, Mart - Brad Jones had that shirt too

yep

Allen is industrious against better teams, and a good choice as a sub when we are ahead and need to close out a game

His interview made me believe a conversation has been had about being number 1

[jammy_basturd]

After the season Migs has had, we wouldn't buy another goalkeeper to play understudy to him!

[Flip Martian]

All the gen points to him coming as number 2 for now, as he is not (apparently) the finished article. Clearly he's talented and ambitious and wouldn't have come at all if there was no chance of him taking Mignolet's spot.

Are there any finished articles in any position at his age??

No idea, I don't work in football. I didn't suggest there were. Just that he won't have been bought in as a straight replacement - just someone who could develop into one.

I think Allen and Lucas will stay tbh. I could see Llallana going if we get another attacking midfielder in.

Total opposite for me on all 3 counts

I think Allen or Lucas need to stay as squad players to have something different if we need it. Problem with Lallana is who in the midfield are we going to replace in there to make it better, as it clearly needs work when we look at some of the games we've had this season.

Can and Coutinho are the two that should stay, so then someone (or someones) between Henderson, Milner and Lallana need to go to make space for a replacement. Then we also have to consider Ibe, Marko and a few others... no point in keeping them all if they won't play. General problem with them all is they aren't consistent goal scorers, which we probably want in a replacement.

P.S. Seems Sturridge got injured with England again...

I would not be upset if DS had a summer off

Me neither, but I doubt England will let him go that easily. Bloody ridiculous. Every time...

Laser would seem to be off, I am guessing we will keep Ibe.

Lucas will stay, Klopp seems to have a strong bond and trusts him. Not sure Allen will accept being squad player at this stage of his career, perhaps wee Joe will go to celtic

For those with a fetish for building work, perhaps - the new stand being worked on and the old one demolished.

Probably worth taking binoculars for anyone sitting in the upper tier next season...

New potential LB?

He's 5'5! Too small

Well the vid shows he can shoot. Didn't see any defending being done though. Who knows? Klopp, hopefully.
