    Why would you not include Wirtz? Does that mean Szobsoslai isn't considered a midfielder?

    He did it perfectly well for Klopp, when Klopp didn't fancy Grav. Now Slot doesn't fancy Endo but likes Grav...

    But the point is well made, you can never have too many quality players.
    I have to say - Klopp got 82 (just 2 less than last season) points with the squad that won the title last term - playing Endo often, This alone is testimony to his greatness. Add to that that the entire midfield was in its first season…! see Wirtz - Kerkez - Isak…Frimpong . Then add in the unprecedented injury list… 12 seniors missing at the business send of the season, as his team went for a quad… and you understand the monumental impact the man had and still has over this club.

    But Endo - great servant that he is, is imo beyond a liability. He is so slow it ain’t even funny

    That said - I totally agree with Slot on this one. Endo at CB maybe - but in your midfield…? Really…?

    And that’s a sad indictment. And don’t get me wrong - he was a wonderful player - superb technique - BUT he was bought years too late - his best years behind him and crucially - was well known - even in his prime to be injury prone. We got him for relative peanuts - that’s why we did it. Too little too late.

    We just don’t do it, Be it Defenders or Mids… IF we can get by with 3 mids and the drop off to rotation is huge… We say - that’s ok…

    Well at the top level - it never is… Only - IF you have a Jurgen Klopp on board perhaps - then you can fool some into believing you can
    That guy from socieadad than turned us down too.

    Not really - we didn’t have a trio of top level starters at that time. Grav had a weak first season - Endo was Endo - Macca was good in patches at best and Szobozlai started like a freight train and then flattered to deceive. That was summer 2024…

    This summer was the summer where we had 3 you would considers all to be nailed on starters. And yet again we simply didn’t bother.

    Not that we should expect any more from you - BUT - if you had actually read what it was in response to - even you might have worked out why Klopp is totally relevant to the conversation.

    Kev - If you aren’t going to actually offer anything here I suggest it’s you that should “move on”… IF you do - please take Henry’s gimp with you too,

    if other teams fans read this forum, they'd see you as a actual Embarrassment and make liverpool fans look a joke, get a grip lad.

    Go the doctors, I think there's something up with you, Klopps gone mate don't need to mention him in every post, it's pretty unhealthy.. you know we won the league last season right? 2nd time in how long? but we don't talk about that, we just talk about Klopp, well you do.

    Bore off you clown.

    For a kick off all you have done is add a diatribe to a thread where I was discussing the use of Endo with Jozza. A perfectly amicable chat,,.

    but no… In walks the angry Middle Engerlander.


    Naaah

    I suggest the entire forum needs a break from your consistent negative bollox.

    All you do is make snide comment after snide comment about the team - other posters or the pointlessness of us even trying - day in and day out - then often for no reason OR when challenged on anything you get personal with people.

    You offer literally N O T H I N G.. Nada.. Nowt!

    No insight on the football… zip - just pot shots at people from behind your keyboard. Mr brave… I bet you are really hard Kev.. Really tough


    Do one - like you promised once before but welched on - you sorry little angry man-child
