🚨𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗢 - @BILD:

#Liverpool are said to be planning a transfer attack on Nico Schlotterbeck (25), as they have an acute need in the centre-back position.

A good spot by some that the trend this season is the deepest midfielder given license to attack.

Problem is that we let Grav do that at the expense of Wirtzy having to drop deep.

Perhaps we should keep it simple.

PSG are looking to ward off #Liverpool's and Bayern Munich's interest in Bradley Barcola (23) by tying down the Frenchman to a new deal. However, those talks, which have been going on for several months, are stalling.

Yeah. I’ve said it frequently. Virgil has pampered us.

My impression of him was that of a very good but not elite defender. Might be wrong but remember him a lot more as a left back.

He’s improved loads hasn’t he? His name was bandied about years ago but never clocked he’s this good.

Schlotterbeck’s passing is as good as anything I’ve ever seen from a CB.

Went under the radar that in their previous game, Khephren Thuram made 92 out of 103 passes for France, won 5/5 of aerial duels, made 14 passes into the final third & had a shot on target.

Slowly but surely coming into his own for club & country.

with Florentino (Perez), and I told him I wanted him to partner me in midfield for [Real] Madrid."

“I know the club tried twice, but he wouldn't leave Liverpool. Not many players turn down Real Madrid but I think that tells you a lot about the loyalty of the man.”

Zidane rates Gerrard ahead Scholes and Lampard, claiming the ex-Liverpool skipper was the 'best in the world' at his peak

"I have said in the past that at his peak he [Steven Gerrard] was the best in the world,"

Frenkie de Jong is the kind of player Liverpool needs.

His name is Adam Wharton.

Football, like fashion, goes in circles. The long throws, the set pieces, the soak & attacks ..:. We might be heading back in time.

🚨 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗢 - @jfelixdiaz: There is a belief at Liverpool that Ibrahima Konate's commitment to Real Madrid is 'more than just a rumour'. The Frenchman is Spanish side's No. 1 target.

It’s looked a mess so far. Midfield non existent.
