Hi EDS. Great work on here! First time posting but just wondering if you could gove an update on potential ins and outs in the defensive areas! We seem to be strenthening midfield and uptop but not much being mentioned in regards to defense! Cheers

{Ed001's Note - we signed Gomez mate, we were only looking to bring in a right back and it seems right now that we have gone with him and giving Wisdom a chance. Right now I only expect an out from the centre back position, which seems to be Skrtel, as his agent is certainly trying to get offers in. We would love to offloan Enrique, but it seems no one else is keen on signing a new social media expert to their club at the moment. Things should become clearer over the next week or two though.}

Do you think Liverpool would be better off, playing Wisdom at CB rather than RB?

{Ed001's Note - not for me, no. I think he is better as an old fashioned full back who can actually defend first and foremost.}

'Social media expert' that's about all he's good at, foes he have long left on his contract??

{Ed001's Note - one year I think.}

Is clyne interest completely gone?

{Ed001's Note - not completely, but we have shown no signs of upping our offer near the amount Southampton want.}

do you not feel that Wisdom would flounder many an attack though? Full backs in the modern game need that ability on the ball, and helping to provide width in attack.

{Ed001's Note - he is good on the ball and can provide support for the attack in a similar way to Azpilicueta at Chelsea. You don't have to be an auxiliary winger to help out an attack. Most of the time modern full backs get forward far too early and block up space for an attack anyway.}

I don't care how it has happened or why but I am glad that Wisdom and Illori appear to be getting opportunities in the first team this coming season.
See a post above about attacking full backs, Moreno is fine on the left, I am happy with Wisdom not being the galloping wing back. Having a CB/RB that can offer cover to the CB's whilst Moreno gets forward is fine with me, will make us more solid defensively.

I'd much rather have slightly better FB's defensively and a solid DM in the side, especially now with the likes of Coutinho, Firmino, Sturridge, Hendo, Milner, Llalana, Ibe etc. in attack. We should be able to create goals without relying too much on FB's (although the odd overlap wouldn't hurt to mix it up. )

I'd say we'll go again for Clyne after the current business is wrapped up. Felt kinda sorry for Manquillo last season but we won't need him if Clyne comes in.

It's a strange one if Skerts leaves. I'd hope for him to be replaced by an experienced quality CB but we've got Toure, Ilori and now Gomez, although I'd say the latter will take at least one season to emerge.

Saw Enrique in the gym with Aspas on instagram, hope to god his buddy can convince Celta Vigo to sign him as well. Or any club at all, please! And Eds IF we can get rid of Enrique might a new left-back come in?
