    It's not a debate. It's fact.

    The appeal of Mane is that he can and has played out wide, as a striker, and in the number 10 role. He will probably play all 3 here.

    Most midfielders can play multiple positions. But he's best wide. He scored a brace against us in that 3-2 loss where Southampton scored 3 straight to win from the left.

    Ok the if we're going to consider Coutinuo a winger, and Lallana a winger, then yes Mane is a winger

    Did I say coutinho was a "winger" or lallana?

    Well since they play the same position just on opposite sides of the field I figured they'd be considered the same thing

    Our apparent problem is that we have 5 midfielders who all do the same thing. Mane is miles different from the players we have.

    This I can definitely agree with. Ibe was the only player with pace last year but he's not very good. Will be nice to have someone to stretch the defense when Sturridge drops deep to pick the ball up

    Firmino was left off the Olympic roster for Brazil. Would have missed all of preseason and possibly the first three games of the regular season.

    If Klopp thinks he's a wide player then he's a wide player. He's the manager, you can't argue with him

    If we can get 30 mil back for Benteke, that'd be amazing.

    We are in a pretty good position where we don't have to sell him. Benteke is a beast in the right system. Unfortunately that system isn't Klopps. Hope we hold out for 30m.

    Sounds like Dahoud is a no go since Gladbach already lost the rest of their midfield. Really hope we have a back up plan on that one.

    Our flops usually sell for decent money. Didn't we get around 25 for Andy from West Ham?

    Also think we got 16 from West Ham for Downing.

    Just heard Graeme Kelly on the Anfield Index talking about our wage structure. Saying how he knows for sure that LFC have a wage structure and that they've offered wages to a player and then reneged on it at the last minute. Said they've agreed to wages with a player and then low balled them when they showed up to sign the contract. Explains why it seems like we've had a lot of bigger signings fall through over the past few years.

    Agreed. Hope we hold out for a decent fee. Have no problem keeping him until the New Year. Some teams might be desperate and you would have a hard time finding a 4th striker as talented as him.

    Liverpool are also looking for a player who can control from the middle and offers defensive stability. #lfc (Echo)

    I can't see how Allen isn't better option than Henderson right now.

    Henderson is bigger, and runs like a deer with his ass on fire when healthy. Neither really score goals. But Henderson isn't healthy.

    Liverpool could land a better CM than Allen for next season in the transfer window, but I'd bet against it.
